That would be $12 per tax payer, not $12m

Alt text? Or maybe just turn this into text posts?

Husband: *opens the blinds*

Me: grr! the sun! it hits my eye balls. how can something be so annoying from so far away?

Husband: 🤷‍♂️

Me: Do you think I annoy anyone from that far away?

Husband (with zero hesitation): Yes.

Yup, got the same thing yesterday. Followed them to discord and then I knew it was bs when they said to message bluesky custody support on discord 🙄 why would bluesky support not be on bluesky. Reported all the account names i could on both platforms

Fake pups out there trying to steal identities 😭🐶 be super wary of anyone trying to tell you to go to discord so they can connect you with bluesky support

Found some AI Slop on #Deezer on the page for #DorianElectra

EXCLUSIVE Jeffrey Epstein's Friends Sent Him Bawdy Letters for a 50th Birthday Album. One Was From Donald Trump. The leather-bound book was compiled by Ghislaine Maxwell.

It was Jeffrey Epstein's 50th birthday, and Ghislaine Maxwell was preparing a special gift to mark the occasion. She turned to Epstein's family and friends. One of them was Donald Trump. Maxwell collected letters from Trump and dozens of Epstein's other associates for a 2003 birthday album, according to documents reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. Pages from the leather-bound album-assembled before Epstein was first arrested in 2006—are among the documents examined by Justice Department officials who investigated Epstein and Maxwell years ago, according to people who have reviewed the pages. It's unclear if any of the pages are part of the Trump administration's recent review. The president's past relationship with Epstein is at a sensitive moment. The Justice Department documents, the so-called Epstein files, and who or what is in them are at the center of a storm consuming the Trump administration. On Wednesday, after angry comments about how the files are a hoax created by Democrats, President Trump lashed out at his own supporters for refusing to let the matter go.

The letter bearing Trump's name, which was reviewed by the Journal, is bawdy-like others in the album. It contains several lines of typewritten text framed by the outline of a naked woman, which appears to be hand-drawn with a heavy marker. A pair of small arcs denotes the woman's breasts, and the future president's signature is a squiggly "Donald" below her waist, mimicking pubic hair. The letter concludes: "Happy Birthday - and may every day be another wonderful secret." In an interview with the Journal on Tuesday evening, Trump denied writing the letter or drawing the picture. "This is not me. This is a fake thing. It's a fake Wall Street Journal story," he said. "I never wrote a picture in my life. I don't draw pictures of women," he said. "It's not my language. It's not my words." He told the Journal he was preparing to file a lawsuit if it published an article. "I'm gonna sue The Wall Street Journal just like I sued everyone else," he said. Allegations that Epstein had been sexually abusing girls became public in 2006 and he was arrested that year. Epstein died in 2019 in jail after he was arrested a second time and charged with sex trafficking conspiracy.

WSJ push just now.

“may every day be another wonderful secret”

Was this one raised by a modem and a printer?

Bar chart titled “The Supreme Court vs. The Lower Courts: Rulings on the Trump Administration” showing three horizontal bar charts for May 1-June 23, 2025. Federal District Courts: large red bar (82 cases, 94.3% against) with tiny green bar (5 cases, 5.7% for). Circuit Courts of Appeal: medium red bar (15 cases, 68.2% against) with smaller green bar (7 cases, 31.8% for). Supreme Court: tiny red bar (1 case, 6.3% against) with large green bar (15 cases, 93.7% for). Shows dramatic reversal from lower courts ruling against Trump administration to Supreme Court ruling for it.

Since May:

Federal district courts have ruled against Trump admin 94% of the time.

Supreme Court has sided with the Trump admin 94% of the time.

A judiciary at war with itself.

A table at Queer Plants café. There's a can of Lion Heart Blood Orange kombucha, the novel Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin and a Nightshade stew.

A selfie with some Queer Plants Cafe decor in the background. I'm a white guy with a handlebar mustache and soul patch. I'm wearing chuncky tortoiseshell glasses and a green tshirt. In neon LED behind me it says "Pollinate Your N-" (Neighborhood maybe? the rest is blocked by a shelf). There's also what looks like a white dahlia lit from the inside hanging off said shelf.

What might be a reasonable price to offer for a "rate my alt text" where you share 3-10 links to posts and the rater gives the alt text in the post a grade with a brief explanation of why?

A picture of me with distinctive facial hair. A handlebar mustache that connects to sideburns, all with a uniform thickness band and a triangular patch under the lower lip. The chin and neck are shaved.

My doc had me shave a little patch of my beard and it looked goofy so my barber did a salvage job. I think I can live with it. Butch hipster? 70s pornstar? Spaghetti western villain? 🤷‍♂️

THE GOOD TROUBLE CHECKLIST keep all your shenanigans in one place

The Egyptian pro-democracy activist Wael Ghonim said,

"The power of the people is greater than the people in power."

This is a checklist of things you can do, probably should do, resources, ideas, ways to move forward.

“I just don’t know what to do!!” shouldn’t be something you say now.

Here:

Heading from #Portland to #SanDiego and got to the airport in time for a pre-flight flight 😅

Me smiling behind a Mango Matcha served layered in the glass with the green matcha on top, white oat milk in the middle, and a yellow mango puree on the bottom. The layers run together a bit making interesting patterns.

I had to walk A Little South for my mango matcha at The Great North

My #NewMusicFriday picks amidst all the Mayhem

A picture from my vantage point at the coffee shop. A partially eaten pastry sits on my lap on a bright yellow-orange plate. To my left is a small coffee table constructed from polished round tree slices. A few colorful books are on the table as well as my partially finished latte.

A selfie. I've got a flat smile, somewhat messy hair, a bears and chunky tortoiseshell glasses. I'm wearing a blue and black flannel shirt, unbuttoned, with a tshirt underneath that reads "Ignore All Previous Instructions" and features an angry looking raccoon.

Cardamom latte and Almond croissant at Queer Plants in NE #Portland Concordia neighborhood.

There's like 30% of my pastry left when I remembered to snap a pic.

Is this character growth? 🤔🤷‍♂️

A framed art photo of a whole bunch of different rubber ducks. It's hung on a bathroom wall over the toilet. A sparkly golden duck sits on the corner of the frame.

A photo of the bathroom wall showing the mirror over the sink and a framed rubber duck photo over the toilet. There's two rubber ducks, one on the mirror (dressed like a leather pup) and one on the framed art piece.

A closer shot of the corner of the framed art photo. There's more detail to the gold sparkly rubber ducks sitting on the frame. It has a prominent red beak and the individual gold flecks are apparent.

A full close up of the gold sparkly duck. The gold flecks look like small sequins and are embedded in the translucent rubber of the duck. The duck eyes look painted on and are very round. The duck is a bold contrasting orangey-red.

A new duck has joined the bathroom ✨️🐤✨️

I visited the venue back in October for a Halloween thing and I think it's the perfect place for an ABDL camping experience! So excited! I hope we get a good Portland contingent to come down 🥰

Me posing, holding a card that reads "Nobody stacks up to you" with an image of a stack of pancakes with a heart shaped butter pad on top. The stack goes all the way to the edge and wraps around so it looks cut off from the vantage I'm holding the card. The horizontal stripes on my shirt line up almost perfectly with the pancake stack lines. It kinda gives a bit of an Escher optical illusion vibe.

Got a cute Valentine's Day card from a lover in San Diego. I didn't intend to perfectly line up the pancakes with the lines on my shirt, and yet somehow I totally nailed it 🥞🤷‍♂️

Peaking out through my blinds, the ground is covered in snow. On the road it is a yucky slush. There's some footprints in the snow that lead around a car in the driveway.

A selfie of me taken from an overhead vantage angle. I'm a bearded white man, shirtless with some chest fur wearing blue and black flannel pajama bottoms.

Slushy outside in #Portland but I'm comfy inside in my jammies.

A small antique looking plate with a floral pattern and croissant crumbs. There's a few pink flecks of rose filing and a bit of powdered sugar.

Me shrugging. A bearded white guy with a grey leather jacket, tortoiseshell glasses and unruly hair poking out from a grey knit beanie.

I had a really good Pistachio Rose croissant at Roseline on Alberta in #Portland

I forgot to take a picture of it but you can have a fancy plate with crumbs and a shrug instead 🤷‍♂️

Me wearing a dark grey leather jacket and grey beanie, holding a black mug of coffee. There's a purple and black artwork behind me that looks like it should be a QR code but I've tried unsuccessfully to scan it many times.

Dismayed that I am out of home coffee 😭

I put in a reorder at www.gayawakeningcoffee.com (yay local #Portland queer businesses!)

And now I'm vibing with my friends at Jet Black in Concordia
