There is no barn-burner quite like engineers discussing detour plans.
my vet: there's a new medication we are using for dogs having a hard time. it's called Reconcile.

Bad Bunny was amazing. Loved that show so much.
Get yourself a Philly HVAC professional who says "RAH-dee-ate-er." There will be an office lady named Doris who sends a bill whenever they think of it and your heating will be okay.
This goes along with the NYT story about her arranging a call between FBI agents who seized 2020 election materials in Georgia and the president.
Reminder: GOP Pa. U.S. Sen. Dave McCormick voted in favor of her nomination, while Democratic Sen. John Fetterman was a "no" last year.

We're all so used to Trump's constant rallies now we don't really talk about how fucking weird they are anymore. He's been holding ego-stroking rally events since 2016. Over 900 of them...for a DECADE. Same goes for his merch. It's not normal, but it's been normalized to the point of invisibility.
It doesn't matter what the Constitution says. If the government can execute you on the street or in your own home on a whim, you have no rights. None.
Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.
Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.
Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.
ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
I said this last time but their real position is “if you disagree with us we can kill you.”

This is a white supremacist paramilitary operation. Their goal—their stated goal!—is to force America to submit to the President's racist domineering vision for the country.
The sooner everybody starts confronting it on the terms that they themselves have stated, the better.
The federal government is intentionally misleading the American people with fake images.
Me: sorry, kids, not cooking tonight because I am busy refurbishing a 1958 vintage Singer straight stitch machine for quilting purposes and some man named Andy has a 56-part YouTube series on this machine
Also me: sorry, kids I have no idea where the neurodivergence came from

Looks like spring! Absolutely beautiful work.
That is gorgeous! Is the orange thread a thin yarn? I always wonder if I could use sock yarn for something like that to add texture.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said.
That is called murder when they do that.
Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.
PSA: Wix is terrible.
Keep up the good work holding power accountable.
not to go all identity politics but I think it’s also because the victims are women
This comes one day before the 5th anniversary of the attack on the U.S. Capital -- which was part of an unprecedented effort to overturn the will of the people and keep a defeated president in power.
again: how are we all supposed to be walking around as normal?
