Do any of my LA peeps have a CPA tax preparer that they're happy with? Mom needs somebody and the guy she used last year kinda took advantage of her and really jacked up the bill.

I can't help you there. Although Fi uses T-Mobile's network, it's a different company with different customer service. (And I've never had occasion to call.)

I'm on Fi, which uses the T-Mobile network. I almost always have connectivity, though rarely AT&T has coverage when T-Mobile does not, and vice versa. Unless I'm out in the boonies, it's not an issue.
My MIL is on Mint, also via T-Mobile network and quite cheap. It seems to work for her.

There will be elections. And they will be free and fair.

Just like they are in Russia.

Bluesky decided to allow ICE gestapo in the door.

So I'm going elsewhere.

Bonus: the character limit there is 1024 characters, not this stupid 256 that bsky uses. Come on over and quit chopping up your posts into 2-sentence fragments!

I'll still read your posts and maybe respond, at least for a while, but most of my online time will continue to be over on Mastodon at @jbayes@sfba.social . I hope that (more) of you will join me.

I miss interacting with friends on Facebook now that I don't post there, and I'm going to miss all of you here, but I can't support bluesky anymore now that they've decided to platforms Nazis.

Of course there will be another election. And it will be free and fair.

Just like in Russia.

I'd love it if he would F off.

Well, when you put it that way, I can see why the Gross Old Pedophile party is opposed.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

I have a very bad feeling about this...

I didn't know it was THAT kind of gym!

Day drinking again?

When I look at my blue sky feed, I notice that about 80% of the posts are pictures of text.

I guess everybody else hates the 300-character limit as much as I do.

So the right turn signal is a little arrow pointing to the left, and the left signal is a little arrow pointing to the right, and I'm left wondering if anybody in that company actually looked at the design before they started mass producing them.

I was riding behind a Mini car today, and noticed the turn signals. They've got that British theme going, so they split the Union flag down the middle and modeled the turn signals after each half.

You are not alone in this problem.

It's amazing how wearing the Family Drama is.

My amendment requires that ICE assign an agent to ensure that Pete Hesgeth washes his hands after using the bathroom.

I'm going to try and communicate with my Republican colleagues in a new way.

Corporate journalism must change or die.

The first changes need to be small—or change won't start at all.

A good first step: correctly report that Mamdani is a democratic socialist and REFUSE TO PUBLISH any claim that he's a Socialist or Communist because that's false and therefore not newsworthy.
