Every time Claude says "Now I see the picture clearly," it's like a little prayer.

The original "Trevor, I'm speaking," is still fairly devastating.

Motherhood is a beautiful thing.

Narratively having Ever Given getting stuck in 2021 to set up Hormuz in 2026 is great foreshadowing. You want your audience to understand the basics of international shipping in a lower stakes context so you drop the real plot without a lot of saggy exposition about the minutiae of cargo logistics.

MAGA Man tries to beat up high school kids. Emphasis on *tries*. :)

Timeline cleanse from Murderbot. I know time is meaningless now but it aired in May-June 2025 and is eligible for award nominations this year marthawells.dreamwidth.org/670572.html

Trapper keepers, notebooks, folder covers. Fairly intense and successful marketing.

One of my 80s dream cars.

Hello to all my new bot followers! Also hello to all the operatives just trying to make a living by creating fake accounts on social media platforms for their governments and associated contractors! I know you're all working hard and I see you.

Following the release of my reports yesterday exposing flights of GAZANS arriving at airports all across the US, the US State Department just announced that “All visitor visas for individuals from Gaza are being stopped” while the US @StateDept “conducts a full and thorough review of the process and procedures used to issue a small number of temporary medical-humanitarian visas in recent days.” This is fantastic news.

My niece is working on this. For herself, of course.

I had one of those! Didn't feel like anything. Took a while to clear up

How the fuck does Billy Joe Armstrong's still look like he's in his mid 30th?

Unsettling is when you narrowly avoid getting clobbered at an intersection, and can't fall asleep for a little while after. Unsettling is when you're fairly certain that your kid took money from your purse, but can't be sure, and have to wrestle with the implications. This... this is something else.

All I want for Christmas is youuuuuuuu

Sol Invictus!

Funny, the only place on the 47 acre property that I have cell service is the bathroom in the camper.

Before you say something mean about Henry Kissinger, take a breath and see if you can think of something meaner
