When a friend asks you to take care of their cat for the weekend with a warning that he can quote "Be a handful" ...
Believe them.. went to take a whiz and came back to see this dude took my iron and my oatmeal pies..
Went to reclaim both and that furry sombich swatted my hand and said..
"Look at me! LOOK AT ME! I am the captain mrow!"
🙃 Har har.
Also notable - Trump has filed a NOTICE of appeal, not the appeal itself. The attorneys on the notice are Alina Habba and Cliff Robert's firms. So Trump (so far) has been unable to get a top shelf appellate attorney. Habba barely knows trial law.
🍿🍿🍿
And without a stay of the judgment pending appeal, the NY AG can begin collection on the money starting March 25. If Trump posts the full judgment amount + interest in cash, it will automatically stay the collection - and other parts of the judgment. Or he can try to get a bond, but that is likely to be very rough since the case is about him lying about the value of his assets (collateral)
Trump has filed his notice of appeal in the NY civil fraud case. For anyone confused: That does not mean he put up the bond money. He can appeal WITHOUT putting up the bond money (does have to pay the appeal fees, etc.). But if Trump does not put up the bond money, the judgment is still in force, which means it is racking up interest every day.

Much logic flow and bug chasing will be occurring. Big thanks to everyone testing it. I'd never have been able to catch the multitude of scenarios that could occur without you guys doing this. 🙏 👍
@th3j35t3r this image is from a quiz on Twitter. I'm curious if Alfred can identify where it is, but I'm not sure how to ask him. Can you ask?

Say what you will about Joe Biden, but at least on his watch the US Navy never had to hide the name of a warship from their Commander in Chief to prevent him from having a rage induced tantrum on the pier like a fucking toddler.
My daughter just persuaded me to have Cap'n Crunch for breakfast. All the childhood memories lol
Heh

It's so funny to me that, of all the platforms out there, the one that has the most integrity is the one owned and run by what they all consider purely a hacker whose name and face are completely unknown.
Not only do you prove them wrong every single day, but you show more integrity than the people whose faces and names we know.
And money isn't/has never been *your* motivation, that's more than plain to see.

^^^ SIDENOTE - https://counter.social doesn't shovel ads down your throat whether you are a PRO subscriber or not. Here's it's more about what value the PRO sub can add, not what crap it will take away.
Because here, you're a community, not a commodity... to be tracked and targeted for ads.

@LauraWalkerKC As most that do come to food banks for assistance are usually in the most emergency kind of situations. /end

@LauraWalkerKC Something I would like to note in afterthought; There are many many many things that families in needy situations can use during the winter season coming. Don't be afraid to ask the Foodbank workers and operators if they have needs that hadn't been filled yet, such as blankets, warmer clothing, coats, snow boots, gloves, hats, scarves, sometimes they will direct you to another organization to handle gifting donated clothing but some do give out these items as well. >>
19. Feminine hygiene products are a luxury and women will cry over that.
20. Everyone loves Stove Top Stuffing.
In all the years I have donated food at the Holidays, I bought what I thought they wanted, but have never asked. I am glad I did. If you are helping a Family this Christmas, maybe this can help you tailor it more. It does for me!

11. They rarely get fresh meat.
12. Tuna and crackers make a good lunch.
13. Hamburger Helper goes nowhere without ground beef.
14. They get lots of peanut butter and jelly but usually not sandwich bread.
15. Butter or margarine is nice too.
16. Eggs are a real commodity.
17. Cake mix and frosting makes it possible to make a child’s birthday cake.
18. Dishwashing detergent is very expensive and is always appreciated.

4. They cannot eat all the awesome canned veggies and soup unless you put a can opener in too or buy pop tops.
5. Oil is a luxury but needed for Rice a-Roni which they also get a lot of.
6. Spices or salt and pepper would be a real Christmas gift.
7. Tea bags and coffee make them feel like you care.
8. Sugar and flour are treats.
9. They fawn over fresh produce donated by farmers and grocery stores.
10. Seeds are cool in Spring and Summer because growing can be easy for some.

Copied from Twitter user "JustFara". A very helpful bit of info:
So, I spoke to people getting food at a food bank and here are some things I learned from those in need:
1. Everyone donates Kraft Mac and Cheese in the box. They can rarely use it because it needs milk and butter which is hard to get from regular food banks.
2. Boxed milk is a treasure, as kids need it for cereal which they also get a lot of.
3. Everyone donates pasta sauce and spaghetti noodles.

I wonder if Turnip has figgered out that when it comes to him, there'll be no deals because there'll be no one higher up the crime syndicate left to flip on.
Tag. You're it.
