This is very cool. I don't think I've ever seen it. 2 days in a row you send me googling.

Best I ever saw was an indigo bunting. BTW - we lost the last of our ducks, and then a neighbor was moving and now we have some chickens if you ever want to come say hi. The rooster is a dickhead, tho...

7. Maybe 8. I can't remember if I've skinny dipped, but it sounds vaguely like me

googled. What a little cutie. Are we the age where we get psyched about birds now?

That color is amazing on you. Love from the shallow end of the pool.

Yay - you're back!

Mine, who generally sleeps on the bed, is angry about the new cat, who I had in the bedroom so everyone could get a sniff of everyone else's smells, and so he refused to get in bed in favor of the laundry basket. I moved him up here, so now he's pouting.

I can say anything to you, too, except a few words I just can't pronounce

you are talking to me
and you didn't know on the other place at first

You're a ridiculously floofy chicken

Okay so I think I have our trial strategy. Here it is:

Blame Eric

It’s simple, it’s straightforward, NOBODY likes Eric. The Big Guy doesn’t even like saying his name. And he’s as charming as a rat. One look and the jury will buy he did it all.

Like John Boy Walton got in that one episode of Law & Order SVU and he started murdering sex workers.

Demon infestation did cross my mind.

I was thinking maybe tertiary syphillis

Can we please speculate wildly on wtf is going on with Mitch McConnell?

Ugh. Can a girl just get a mugshot?

If you share Trump’s mugshot today please share that the Fulton County Jail where it was taken, is at 3x it’s capacity, infested with bugs, holding 87% Black people, most of whom haven’t even been convicted of a crime.

6 people have died in custody this year alone. Fuck cops, shut down jails.

Within the United States the perp walk is most closely associated with New York City. The practice rose in popularity in the 1980s under U.S. Attorney Rudolph Giuliani, when suspects charged with felonies were perp-walked.

A fine day to revisit Giuliani’s role in turbocharging the mug-shot-adjacent practice of the perp walk.

Remember, a realistic lawyer movie would just be one person sitting at their desk & staring at a computer screen, & every 15 minutes they’d say “Goddammit.” That’s it, the whole thing, 95 minutes

Right. Asking for a response with a day's notice usually suggests to me that the judge is pretty clear already, and would like to get this bullshit off his desk. It's the last sentence for me.

Once again for the people in the back:

Covid was never over. You should always be wearing a mask. There is no "going back to normal."

Me too! Of all EM's stupidity, it was the change to X that broke me. And we had a lovely day at the Peabody Essex a couple of years ago. That's a great spot.

Spent an afternoon in Salem with my daughter a few years ago. Best lobster roll and worst psychic reading EVER. Super touristy, but fun little town.

maybe we can take turns.

I think we just gotta do it one person at a time. I'm a little worried about who's going to keep an eye on the wingnuts, though...

Over by the witches! Central VT here. Just fart enough outside of, well, everything to feel removed and quaint!

Where in New England? Pretty place for a competition!

Hi, y'all! Check out my friend @cecilej.bsky.social

Done and done.

Nothing to see here...
