A government that deliberately abandons the rule of law is not morally entitled to its protections.

β€œIt is a reminder that even right now, even as the fight rages on, there is time for joy, there is time for art, there is time to celebrate difference and self, and to insist that you too can be free.

Because they want you to forget that.”

When there aren't any parents around, I'll sometimes see kids hanging off the plunger rods, none have broken but some get bent. I've fished out pennies, dimes, and even a $5 Bill from a coin slot. I've had to take a leaf out of a bill acceptor. All could have been prevented with parents watching

I do own a lot of pinball machines that I put out in public. I love it when kids play my machines, often if I'm nearby I'll put a few free games on so they can play without burning a dollar machine gunning the flippers. But...

Today, remember Jack, give yourself and your animals extra treats. Buy a bar of really good dark chocolate, or get that appetizer you're thinking about. Catch a few water droplets in the shower. And don't take any guff from those that annoy you. Jack didn't! 5/x

Loss is mandatory with how we interact with time, but there are always opportunities for new things, and memories can let you relive the past. The colony has dwindled, but as long as you're open to welcoming new friends, it won't die out. 4/x

I normally have more to say with these things, but this winter has been especially brutal, and while I'll miss him, the silver lining is that this just opens up another spot for a geriatric cat that has been in the shelter for too long and wants a warm loving place for the rest of its life. 3/x

One activity he was very fond of was catching leaking water drops in the bath tub. I'd clean out his black hair every morning before I showered, otherwise it would clog the drain. 2/x

Today, we celebrate the feast of St. Jack. He came to thunderdome from friends who had to move to a place that didn't accept cats. We took him in and he established his place as the loner who loved food. 1/x

I work with a real jerk, can't stand him, don't even think he knows my name. Today he's suddenly the nicest guy here. Knows my name, knows everyone's name. He's playing the piano. Just saw him surprise a young couple with wrestlemania tickets.

Our ancestors were real breathing people who turned sticks into fire, their descendants spent thousands of years building a regime of unsurpassed global peace and prosperity, and we shall not entertain the suggestion that it all ends here just because the man with the golden toilet says so.

My dog and two cats love to throw up on the floor and they represent 60% of the household. As a leader I can't just ignore public opinion so I also throw up on the floor sometimes to stay popular

Because sometimes people need to see that it's okay to buck what's generally considered normal, and that other people have done what the person struggling with the decision believes nobody else has. Otherwise, cycles continue
