@th3j35t3r I'd do that and I'd kick into a monthly scholarship fund also -- more admin mishevgas, yes, but maybe the sort that could be safely offliaded?
@th3j35t3r Supporting whatever you do 🫶. I know you know how much this space means to its inmates, but... untenable is untenable.
Yup, yup, that doggone economic anxiety.

@MookyTroubadour Best movie that mook ever made was the one where his road-warrior character barely speaks. Should've stuck with that.

Sometimes you read something that just kinda nails it.
"If you doubt Trump's dictatorial tendencies, note the number of times he says people shouldn't be allowed to do things. If he becomes president again, he will try to make sure they aren't allowed." - random comment on a Yahoo story on Trump whining about Harris's video message at the Al Smith dinner.

@TemporaryTraveler It's driving me absolutely wild that so, SO many folks in this country -- nevermind TFG; I'm talking voters here, especially those "economic anxiety" voters if you know what I mean -- are this fking dumb. How is the concept of tariffs so hard to understand? Do MAGAts just think it's a schmancy word for "punish?"
I have admired Anne Wroe's work intensely over the years; you must read this

In case you were not sure
Tim Sheehy who is running for a hotly contested Senate Seat in Colorado against Jon Tester. Claimed to have gotten a bullet left in his arm from combat while serving in Afghanistan
THe Park Ranger who responded to the incident comes forward. Sheehy got the wound after an accidental discharge of a firearm on park grounds. Not in combat, and not in the military
Totally on brand for a GOP candidate to openly lie

@peeppeepcircus Not sure where you are, but I am damn sure Seattle is actively attempting to drive me crazy with its recent cloud-cover choices.

@YouInMyEye Bautista seems like a great guy, and one who's utterly secure in who he is -- I've been impressed by him ever since he was all "yeah, I cried when I got the Guardians role -- I really wanted it and I was happy." Full-human madculinity FTW.
@TrueBloodNet Love it. Maybe right on the border between bright side and dark side, so half the room's an inferno and the other half's an icebox. May they never be comfortable.
Formerly @agunn and @agunn_at_work on that dead bird site, but free of the fouled nest. Hi there!
