Ouch, that game was painful! Starting to feel that without Durant, the Warriors are simply the less talented team. Well done by Toronto! #nba
@Anemone Supposedly he will be donating to Lowry's charity as well, yeah. But there should be absolutely zero tolerance for anyone who's a team owner acting like that - he needs a ban for life, not just one year. As for the woman in yellow...she got knocked over like a bowling pin! Probably fine though
@Anemone I didn't notice the ponytail woman reaching for the ball before, WTF?
@Anemone I read that Stevens is getting a $500k fine and may be forced to sell his ownership interest, but he's apparently a billionaire so he won't care. What a pig
@Anemone Curry played his heart out tonight, but they're pretty decimated right now! OTOH, Lowry and Ibaka really impressed me tonight! Raptors are truly formidable
@Anemone Congrats on a well-played game!
Went out this evening to see the humpback whale that's been feeding in the lagoon off Alameda for around a week. The news stories say the whale is probably sick, but wow is it an amazing sight up so close! https://www.sfgate.com/news/bayarea/article/Unhealthy-Whale-Has-Been-Foraging-Fish-Near-13922801.php
@carmahaz Hope you're feeling better!
Watching that game was exhausting! Leonard is really terrific, but I think the Warriors won just through sheer grit #nba
@Anemone @InvaderGzim Well played by Toronto! But we'll see what happens Sunday... (Honestly, the only thing I really really wanted this season was for the Warriors to beat Houston in the playoffs, and since that's done, anything else is gravy! The Raptors would be a fine victor if it comes to that)
@Anemone Rooting for the other team, but I still think this is awesome!
This is the major selling point to me and is why I'm both Pro and supporting on Patreon. I work long hours and quite frankly don't have the life bandwidth to be politically active or do a lot of other things I wish I could do to make society better. But striking a small blow against Facebook, the bird site and all the other ilk that are harvesting our identities for profit by supporting an alternative is my contribution to a better world @th3j35t3r

WHY DID IT TAKE SO FUCKIN LONG FOR MUELLER TO SPEAK AND COUNTER BARR'S REPORT...
Saw something on alternet yesterday regarding elite impunity and frankly all of this smacks of elitism...Whether it's Barr's arrogance and mistruths, Trump's blatant 'I'm above the law' approach to life, or even Mueller's refusal to speak further on this most significant issue now
It's all elitism just showing that laws are for the common folk, not those who by virtue of luck or inheritance have the upper hand

It looks like the nasty stuff will track north and into Pennsylvania today. COSONAUTS in the systems path be alert and we are thinking of you 💜

Howdy!
Feel the flow of good will, no trolling, intelligent discussions and silly dilly fun that comes with hanging out with the other #CoSoNauts?
But were you aware that this takes a toll of about 7 grand each month to keep it flowing?

#CoSo is what the internet was meant to be. But tracking, data mining and trolls made the other sites into a horrible thing
Help us help you!

Does Dayton need help supplies? Is anyone from region?
I know responders are likely keeping public assistance away at this time (don't need people coming in with down power and debris that can injure)
I'm only a 3.5 hrs drive. I haven't looked at all the news yet but can drive down with supplies for any coso'ers in need. I have a portable 5k generator if anyone is in dire need to keep critical systems such as home oxygen going.
