I've been super quiet, even for me, but my sister and BIL were in a very serious car wreck, and this is the first time I've been able to take a breath. If you are so inclined, anything would help their long road to recovery. www.gofundme.com/f/help-suppo...
Fought the urge to go off on a post sticking up for the League today. At first I thought it was a bot, but upon closer inspection...a wyte woman from SC. I can't understand how anyone can think like that, especially a woman, but I guess generations of willful ignorance will do that for you. #WNBA
How is this what anyone wants?
With classes underway, I’ve switched from essays to exams. But with the death of the student essay (RIP, slain by ChatGPT), there’s a larger human tragedy: an erosion of critical cognition and the creation of two sharply divided classes of people: those who learn how to think and those who don’t:
Hundreds of generals and admirals had to fly in from all over the world so Pete Kegseth can live out his Patton fantasies.
The flew the entire military leadership in so they could see for themselves that the Secretary of Defense is a mouthbreathing dipshit and the Commander in Chief is a senile, weak old man who might keel over at any moment.
I don't have trouble with adhesives, but I do have trouble with silicone or any similar plastics. Found out during the "SwatchWatch" trend, when the watch my grandmother got me for Xmas gave me a blistering rash after a day of wearing it.
Finished all 656 pages in under a week. Damn thing even get me teary-eyed for like 3 or 4 chapters. I highly recommend, but will warn there is a LOT of adult content.
Only reason I stopped reading tonight was because of the protests from my eyes. It gets better with every page. I haven't enjoyed fiction this much since the Kitty Norville series. @carrievaughnco.bsky.social
Stumbled upon an Instagram account recently & fell in love w/ the creator's "voice." I was delighted to discover a book behind it all. This is NOT my usual reading fare, but I have to set alarms to keep from READING ALL THE WORDS NOW! Check out @sea-ya-later.bsky.social 's For Whom The Belle Tolls.
The Third Reich didn't last 1,000 years.
Pinochet was ousted with a referendum.
And the US isn't exactly dealing with the smartest, most competent fascists.
Those of you insisting that 2025 is forever need to read a book, touch grass, go to therapy, anything other than trying to make others quit.
Not sure that karma is working fast enough right now, but at least it's still working.

This looks too much like, "Dance, Monkeys, Dance."
Enjoying some rare late afternoon sun today. Only a few more weeks to keep the pool open, before I get tired of fighting the leaves.
And you get the best comment of the week. LOL
I have awesome friends who think about me even thousands of miles away. My favorite con-roomie got me an awesome haul from Japan, and then sent it to me.
Stock pot half full with stewing fresh tomatoes
Yesterday this was a whole box of fresh tomatoes, straight from the farm. Today it will simmer down into a wonderful base for my sauce that I can tuck away into the freezer for use later. I have another batch coming in from my contractor later this month.
NEW: A newly declassified part of the Durham report shows republicans used a Russian-manufactured email as evidence that Hilary Clinton conspired with Russia. 😂😂😂 gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/07/31/u...
From her last All-Star tournament in San Diego the week before her surgery.
Had to get her a custom-made display for her home run balls.
To that point, here’s a story done about how in he early 2000s, the Nets were able to turn a $28 million profit into a $6 million loss on paper by using questionable, but widely practiced and legal accounting methods deadspin.com/exclusive-ho...
Monday my youngest niece had brain surgery to correct Chiari Malformation (causing pain, migraines, vertigo, balance & vision issues). Surgery went well, & she's recovering at Children's. She was still playing elite softball, & heavily recruited (BA .469, SLP .764). Imagine if she was 100%
Uggg, I just got the last iteration straightened out at work. I have hated anything Discovery related for over 15 years now.
From AP
If ICE’s goal was to turn everybody (and I mean absolutely everybody) against them, then they are doing an exceptional job
When local/state cops start seeing their patrol buddies and friends start getting this treatment, think they’ll keep supporting it?
The #WNBPA does not mess around. ASW was less than a week ago, and I ordered this as soon as I got the email from Breaking T saying it was available. Less than 5 business days later it's in my hands. Well done!
Anybody else think Lobo and Rucco have a bet going on who can make the other break up over their inuendo comments tonight? #WNBA
Forgot to post these last week when they arrived. I do love that pre-order surprise, though. Also, someone at Funko has a sense of humor, since the Angel & Caitlyn Pop were in the same shipping box. LOL
I screwed up and waited too long to get the 2K22 CP3 cover (took me a while & some coin to find it post release), so I've been sure to pre-order ever since.
Sounds suspiciously like my job.
