George Muthafuckin’ Washington vaccinated his troops.

These dumbasses are trying to act like military vaccines are un-American, as if our nation’s founding wasn’t partially accomplished via vaccines.

Time to bring back the monks for another round. Maybe mix ‘em with dubstep this time.

Through a series of poor life choices, I, an old man much closer to retirement than entry-level, am taking an undergraduate biology class that starts at 8am on the opposite site of the city.

What the actual fuck is wrong with me?

I was raised around guns, served in both the military and law enforcement, and collect them as a hobby. I definitely know the right terminology, but I have taken to calling them “clips” when in the presence of the type of people who just can’t let this go.

For the sheer joy of chaos.

It’s one of those things that few people actually get wrong, but a lot of gun folk practically salivate at the chance to correct them on. And then a whole other set of people can’t wait to discuss the M1 Garand, to mansplain to the mainsplainers.

The whole situation is dreadfully pointless.

How sad is it that I mostly react to the omission of a hyphen in “justice-involved,” while mostly ignoring the generic dem-uselessness babble it is encased in?

This is a question I have complicated answers to …

I swear, it feels like @wyden.senate.gov is the only democrat in our national legislature that actually does any work.

The Democratic Party's entire multi-billion campaign strategy is a one-slide PowerPoint that says "do exactly what the Republicans do, but worse" in Comic Sans

Please, Jesus. I need this in my life.

I’ve been good. I haven’t made myself an AI version of you while claiming to be a doctor.

The host/narrator would, of course, have to be Joan Rivers.

The judge can be one of those appellate high court guys from India that write 3,600-page decisions.

All the cases stem from the interactions of Jerry Springer guests and small-town municipal police.

Ok, hear me out: we re-make The People’s Court (a fake court based on real cases where the people involved don’t actually face consequences), only it’s @kenwhite.bsky.social constantly being given the dumbest possible clients, and squaring off against people like Michael Avenatti or Pam Bondi.

I also notice that cities are populated with tens of thousands of people who fled red states and conservative parents, yet you never seem to find a similar collection of refugees in red zones.

Maybe the right just sucks.

Dear forest states:

Seize the national forests under 10A while there are still forests.

Ok … you might be joking, but … I really really want you to do this. Make fan-fiction of the Seelie court.

Go full Dresden Files with it.

Please.

So I set my phone down for a bit, and y’all almost nuke people while I’m napping? Damn…

Free to a bad home: one (1) cat who thinks it’s appropriate to wake people up at 5am because he wants his ears scratched.

I can’t possibly shit with enough velocity on people who are OK with war crimes.

As a firefighter, I feel a kinship with those targeted Iranian rescue workers.

As a veteran and an American, I feel utterly no kinship with the kind of shitheels that think we have wiggle room on this concept.

Arrest, try, and execute whoever was involved with this. They dishonored their uniform, their country, and the human race. They are unfit to bear arms or draw breath.

Javert had far too much integrity to work for this admin.

And when he finally realized the truth of his worldview, the dishonor of it drove him to suicide. He wouldn’t last ten minutes in a trumpist administration.

For 13 weeks, Marine recruits aren’t allowed to see their families. Not once. Graduation day is the first reunion. It’s supposed to be a celebration. At Parris Island in South Carolina this week, ICE agents will be stationed at the gate checking the immigration status of anyone who shows up to watch

I’m back. Guess my account got banned for a bit.

Gee, sure wish the DOJ did something about that, other than sit around with their thumbs up their asses

Sigh.

Stolen red Honda Shadow - Aero. 2005. Firefighter medallion on the gas tank. Plate MV 00234, but that’s probably been removed so call if you see one even if the plate doesn’t match.

Ping me if ya see anything matching the description. Please re-post. Etc.

@iwriteok.bsky.social several years back, was it you that posted a list of books that help people understand the rise of fascism? It seems like something you’d do, but I can’t find it here, and I dread looking on The Bad Place…

Good point.

… yes?
