I have GOT to start listening to this horse. He was fussing about someone in the neighborhood up the hill, I thought he just didn’t like them playing loud music… turns out they were on the way to setting their house on fire. (Fire is out, phew, thank you LAFD.)
if the media could go ahead and treat this claim the way they treat Biden saying "I'm fine" - aka, as a lie that requires days on end of front page stories to debunk - that would be great
we'll be over here waiting
Trump is trying to get ahead of the reality that he and the heritage foundation are working to destroy America and institute a fascist dictatorship. He is lying and expecting the media to gaslight America for him.
The newest TikTok trend is Bombadiling, where a Gen-Zer will film themself being a merry fellow wearing a bright blue jacket and boots that are yellow.

may have lightly waterboarded a child who would not stop shooting me with a squirt pistol in the house and refused an offer of a truce, not sure if this makes me the mean cousin or the cousin who teaches valuable life lessons about negotiating with a more powerful opponent
anybody have a life hack for getting other people to actually provide the necessary context when starting a conversation
I work in my teaching job with someone who CHRONICALLY just acts like I was part of the conversation she just had with someone else that I wasn't part of
it is unhingeing me
If you care about the USA, the single best thing you can do today is to contribute to a downticket race thats close. The second best thing you can do is cancel your NYT subscription and use that money for the purpose.
Those left of center needn't cede patriotism to the right.
"Patriotism" can be devotion to the remarkable land and people of this country, not to the mythologies of its government.
Patriotism can sound like "FUCK YEAH, YELLOWSTONE EXISTS!" or "HELL YES MUTUAL AID!"
That's my Fourth of July post.
credit scores are such a scam. My FICO score is 60 points higher than my VantageScore. which one matters? ANYBODY'S GUESS!

people will say they're drinking bird flu milk on purpose "to strengthen the immune system" but won't get a vaccine to strengthen the immune system when that is LITERALLY THE SAME THING EXCEPT NOT GONNA KILL YOU
