As the dawn sets on the 17+ year life of our dog, this little guy showed up out of nowhere.

Needing me probably a little less than I needed him but he's a welcome addition and as absolutely as sweet as he looks.

"Before mass leaders seize the power to fit reality to their lies, their propaganda is marked by its extreme contempt for facts as such, for in their opinion fact depends entirely on the power of the man who can fabricate it."

Today's find from the is the oral argument in Griswold v. Connecticut - the Supreme Court case from 1965 that said that married women should have the right to purchase contraceptives. This case laid the foundation for a right to privacy which is under attack today. I hope as folks head to the polls they remember our rights are not guaranteed.

@WeThePeople That, and he has nearly $1 billion in debt servicing to pay per annum. If the advertisers desert him, he's hosed.

@Iceman_Bob I always treated Twitter more as a curated news aggregator than a place to be social with people.

@cadfael777 Word. My diopters are similarly ridiculous, and I’m finally going for an eye exam in the morning for the first time since before the pandemic. I really need new street and safety glasses!

@Tarnagh Wait! You mean I don’t need a dozen columns following hashtags? OMG, there will be so much less scrolling. Thank you.

@grantophus Not asking. People who can become pregnant are being forcibly reclassified as less-than-corpses.

@JLordanKelly Are you right-handed or left-handed? My righty mother taught me to knit, which has always felt awkward, but I (a lefty) taught myself how to crochet left-handed, which feels more natural.

Possibly also relevant: left-handed stitching crafts grow from left to right, in the same direction that the pattern is written. Right-handed stitching grows from right to left, which has always felt backwards to me.
