Oh you’re welcome 💜

@brooklynmarie.bsky.social check this out - crazy good

Oh stop! lol
They’re actually reasonable and you can do a lot of stuff with them. I just follow a couple women on TikTok for tutorials. The meeden brand is my fave so far

Bc Graham doesn’t want you to know about his thing for little blond Dutch boys.

A fat black stabilo pencil and oil pastels

Just a ton of oil pastel that will never dry but made a show less boring

Yay! I haven’t posted them tho but maybe now I will 🤷‍♀️

I really listened when you said just paint and draw and don’t worry about it and have been just messing with oil pastels in front of tv watching and it’s very satisfying so thanks!

lol 😝

Yep
A global game of chicken
Bc of child sex trafficking and murder

Absolutely

North Scottsdale (where most would be in Az) and I worked with a super creative team on multi million $ elearning projects and that one laid off 45 people in one day bc they couldn’t manage $$ after 9/11. no savings. Mismanagement. Cost them a ton bc of WARN act. All ego and entitlement-Legal tho

Like at my first dot com the CEO brought all the kids in a room (I was already 40 and just adventurous) and told them to pick out their island and then a few months later the CFO made off with 2nd round of funding -$20 mill - to Europe and got away with it.

The second dot com was very upscale

deserved all the funding and lack of oversight and obviously the women and drugs and so what if rents increase so that service people can’t live here

The failure was in the general public to recognize a menace like they couldn’t in the Bushes or Trump.

Having worked at 2 dot coms in 1999 and then 2000, there was ample evidence then and was ignored bc IMO people didn’t understand tech and/or were afraid in a FOMO sense, so they coddled and fed and funded a ton of sociopaths, or it was immediately accepted that great men (lol) were superior and

And yet they both won
Hillary obviously with 3 million +
Kamala not so obviously bc DNC buried report

Humanity heating planet faster than ever before, study finds Researchers identify sharp rise to about 0.35C every decade, after excluding natural fluctuations such as El Niño

It doesn’t matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. It’ll never cease to amaze me that people don’t care that it’s happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.

Tony Gilroy said they had a list of 11 or so classic authoritarian features and he was proud to hit each one organically

Great group, great objective, great opportunity.

It is also a moral issue because unvaccinated people are dangers to other people. The reaction to Covid, where we opted to abandon vulnerable people, has weakened our understanding of societal responsibility near the breaking point. MAGA nihilism has not helped.

human cassowary lol

So I’ve had an EV for a year now and I’m on a monthly plan electricity-wise, I charge at home, and my plan didn’t increase.

If you get an older model they are very reasonable. Mine was under $20k as a 2023.

The range is bad in cooler temps, but mine charges to like 230 miles at 100%. #EV

I am pumping my fist in the air this is just absolutely perfect, no notes, and I really wish I had thought of this when the manager who bought a Porsche with his bonus check said "We're all in the same boat".

I hate when even NPR misleads with even things like this. MAGA is at best 28% of the population (125,400,000). 44% of MAGA does not even reach his votes tallied in 2024 benchmark.

JUST SAY ONLY 55 MILLION MAGAts SUPPORT THE WAR IN A NATION OF 330,000,000

It was bc they introduced religion and a religious freak

I just read Virginia Roberts Giuffre's book "Nobody's Girl" and I'm devastated. Especially knowing now she's gone. I drew this cartoon almost 10 years ago to illustrate what women, girls, and men who care are up against: carelessness protected by power. Let's not give up caring.
