In 2020, I (a Georgia voter then) was invited to a Florida Dems call where we all agreed that we could see Warnock winning and Ossoff losing because Ossoff is... wooden? Obviously I voted for him and he's a good Senator, and weirdly, I can see him as a page-turning President.
Didn't Hoover basically jump on the presidential yacht the USS Sequoia and go fish off Florida from November to March, when inauguration happened back then?
It was so good. I hadn't seen it before or heard any of the songs, so it was really an experience.
Okay Bluesky, catch me up! Saw a high school performance of Hadestown for the last few hours and it was absolutely phenomenal. Our friend (mom of a student) who organized us said it was going to be great; she was so, so right.
Parkinson's took out my dad, including with a lot of cognitive and paranoid elements. I'm really sad about Gosar's condition. What are his voters thinking?
Petey, our chi-terrier mix, at rest. Buried in blankets, because.
I love this wild dude like whoa.
Boys/men today have a real input problem when it comes to social media and their brains.
Wild. I was thinking the other day about this memory I have of getting into a casual conversation with my 3rd grade math teacher (during class) who, after a couple of minutes, realized we were chatting like adults and was visibly confused and shut that down. Mrs. Johnson. Big moment for both of us.
Is the shadow fleet sanctioned (by us? Us + allies?) vessels? Weeks into this and I still haven't become an expert in maritime matters!
An ancient Egyptian tomb painting depicting two men, Khnumhotep and Niankhkhnum, hugging each other and nose to nose, which is as close as you can get to intimate in ancient Egyptian art. From their shared burial tomb at Saqqara. Considered humanity's first recorded same-sex couple, although Egypt's climate is unique for making records last.
These gentlemen, Khnumhotep and Niankhkhnum, shared the title of Overseer of the Manicurists in Egypt's royal palace in the 25th century BC. Probably just roommates.
Catholic for five minutes and has big thoughts. Oh boy.

So they still have a navy then.
Sure looks like Hungarians have liberated themselves from Viktor Orban. What an extraordinary task. Congratulations!

I am not a parent and can't assess that. But it's awesome that she's out that nonsense.
My (by marriage) ~20ish year old niece was dating one of those guys back then, and was upset about the gender things and the litter boxes and the Bible.... She's dropped the dude and is fine now. Happily relationshipping with a normal dude. Being an awesome 23 year old. These guys fuck themselves.
Health Departments in Blue places allowing high school students in public schools to piss and shit into litter boxes that they carry around all day. Yeah, that's a thing allowed by local and state law.
A fantastic NASA photo of Artemis II, three main chutes aloft high above it, moments before splashdown in the Pacific Ocean. On the left, a short distance behind all this, is a white sailboat piloted by a crazy person.
While I’m sure the sailboat captain was clear of a well-communicated splashdown zone, I was happy to be most of a continent away, just in case.
So he’s *trying* to start World War III and Europe so far is declining?

I mean, it's not clear to me that they had exactly opened it again....
My introvert brother, who did a stint in Afghanistan around 2010, now does police dispatch in his city, and says that his one superpower is being calm in a crisis. The rest of the time he's a PTSD shell, but when shit goes bad.... Sounds like you'd vibe. Glad you're (probably) cancer free.
Oh boy. I'm hoping that Trump loses interest, but this seems tragically plausible and I want much, much better for the Marines who will die on Kharg if this happens.
We also burned through a ton of interceptors that will take years or even decades to replace, so that's amazing for us and our shrinking cadre of friends.
Point 11: Sharia law for America!
I hope Hungarians add to the humiliation that a human being in Trump's position would feel at such an abject string of losses.
Luckily for Trump, he's too stupid to understand how hard he just got got.
"The President of the United States is a genocidal monster who must be impeached and removed immediately" seems like the only type of thing that should appear on the US Congress Dems feed, but alas.
I was trying to recreate some lists I had on Twitter, and I've had real luck doing that here. For some months, I could check in on those lists logged out on Twitter, but Elon decided that was against his interests.... Eat bees, Elon.
I think they're thinking about it a lot. And whether our doing so would result in Kyiv nuked a day later, because those are the rules now.
The fact that we're talking about it makes me think we should be in the streets until he's gone.
