1) This is beyond horrific; 2) this does not encourage me to visit the US; 3) I don't think ticket sales for the World Cup and the Olympics in LA will do very well as more people hear about stuff like this.

I was pushing the idea of being a good sport after the hockey loss yesterday and I meant it.

I won't be a good sport about any Olympian who accepts a visit to the White House. Hang out with Nazis and I am going to think you are one too.

When my eldest was just over 1 we thought we’d be moving to Boston. In my efforts to prepare for their general endealment, I found myself exclaiming β€œWell that was an INTERESTING CHOICE!!” at a driver in a very similar situation. Oregonians just generally aren’t cut out for traffic shouting πŸ™ˆπŸ˜‚

I genuinely believe it’s physically impossible for my Gujarati sasu to leave for a trip without making thepla. Even when she says she won’t this time because we’re already running late πŸ˜‚

They ride the bus together and their stop is before ours, so my kid has definitely seen the house, so I’m inclined to believe it’s true. but also, 6yo so a little πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ πŸ˜‚ met the parents briefly and think dad is a chiropractor which would check out (but similarly questionable intel there)

Imagine my horror when I figured out my kindergartner’s new class friend seems to be part of the family that drives the CT I’d been giving the loser L finger sign for months πŸ˜³πŸ™ˆ

Ending billionaireism isn't just socially and economically necessary to maintain human civilization, it's a humanitarian measure for the billionaires themselves. They're clearly very sick and we can help them

We’re a bit north of you and this is very unusual for us! They’re usually still firmly in thorny stick mode until March at leastπŸ˜‚

Neat! Did you plan it out or just go off vibes for the triangle placements? It looks like you put them in the same strips as the kelp and switched back to the background? Not HSTs?

I asked a family friend who’s special interest is aviation this week and he said it’s still totally safe to fly. but tbh, seeing this hours before I’m due to fly across the country has me a little anxious.

Start up green tractor, we need you! Cling! Clang! Sprong! Loader bucket’s on!

Sorry/not sorry, my 2yo really imprinted heavily on that one and although it’s not a daily read these days it’s sadly deeply etched into my brain.

No joke, a fancy bidet was one of our pre tariff purchases.

It’s really wild how there is no reason to deport anyone, let alone children and US citizens and LPRs and students and people undergoing cancer treatment etc. it’s all a fake solution to a made up problem enacted by violent racists who are stealing from you

The TLDR is that the sect behind that temple has a very strong tie with a far right nationalist organization (RSS) which pretty much created the BJP which is the Hindu nationalist party of the current PM. It’s not a direct link but it’s an extremely close connection.

Looking at the Kennedys, it's amazing that America found a way to have a crazy aristocratic family, of a type that usually takes several hundred years of inbreeding to get that way, in under half a century. That's American ingenuity and efficiency right there.
