Sarah Palin Just Lost a 50-Year GOP Seat to Alaska’s First Native Rep – Mother Jones

@BoxerDave I own guns, legally. I don't hunt, don't believe in killing unless absolutely necessary for defense or survival. I'm retired military, my politics are progressive/centrist/conservative, depending on the issue, NOT the party. Whether to have guns or not should be situational and one rule does not fit all circumstances. I welcome reasonable laws and dialog.
@desbearado I end up wasting more and more time just blocking clowns who espoused obvious lies totally unencumbered by facts...not sure of the reasons why, but they've invaded my feed on Twitter to the point of futility...the place used to have information, but no longer.

I wasn’t one to engage on twitter but man did it make my blood boil. I suppose that’s how they hook you. I’ll bet my blood pressure has gone down a few points since I started looking at it like 1x/ week.

11th Circuit Holds Trump Lawyers’ Feet to the Fire in Special Counsel’s First Courtroom Match-Up Over Fate of Mar-a-Lago Docs Review
Judge Pryor, however, remarked that the case appeared to be “indistinguishable from any other pre-indictment search warrant.”
Interrupting Trusty’s attempt to draw a distinction, Pryor said: “Your answer is: There is no difference.”
@allan1850 LOL....today "Remote work" means sitting at home in your pajamas and putting on a shirt for the occasional zoom call. Back in our days, it meant getting a "tour" of vacation spots like Shimea, Alaska or Diego Garcia. Of course, "tour" had a different meaning then too...LOL
@Ardy Most of Twitter didn't vote... I didn't vote because I blocked the clown after he called someone "pedo" for rejecting his idiotic idea of sending a submarine to rescue those kids in that cave.

That anger you felt on Twitter? It was intentionally fomented by an algorithm to keep you clicking, emotionally manipulating you to sell more ads. It didn't stay there either. It seeped into your life, poisoning you and your interactions in ways you didn't realize.
There's none of that here. Give it a few days, and you'll see. #CoSoRocks

Trump is a weak man’s idea of a strong man.
Musk is a dumb man’s idea of an intelligent man.

Another insomniac morning - but not wasted. Interesting new folks to follow, a few chuckles, and plenty of interesting (often esoteric) news items #CosoGoodNews #Massimo But mostly, once again it's so nice to just see so many WONDERFUL HUMANS.

Platform not pushing influencers is really healthy for any social network.
I am pleasantly surprised that COSO is able to maintain independence with public funding.
@Blue_Skyesr_here Don't know about cats, but it's first snow for my husky, who just turned 1yr old. We rescued her from Missouri, so she's loving it...not so much my Mastiff...he's 14 months old from PA, so he's seen it before and doesn't have her fur coat....
