Remember when "The Decider" was the gold standard for stupidity in office? Simpler times

There is a straight up fully grown man from my past who occasionally engages me in conversation online who has the "they're all the same" mindset and unironically believes nothing would be different if Kamala won. It's really more fascinating and bizarre than it is enraging... but still enraging

I'ma need about dozen other specific obituaries to be included until I feel safe

Yeah, I'm not in CA, but depending on the size of their family, they'd need to make around 130k/yr in my area to have a nice home for their family. And I'd still be ok with that

I've also been enjoying "Yellowjackets". It's by no means a masterpiece, and it leans *heavily* into 90s nostalgia, but it's a good time and has some supernatural "The Craft" vibes going on. I can't really think of movies that hit me hard recently. Furiosa? I liked it, but maybe not for everyone.

I've felt this way about media since COVID basically. But a few gems got me to lock in. Best hard Sci-Fi series: The Expanse, bonus because it leans heavily on themes of oppression and resistance. Wish I had more suggestions, LotR on loop is by no means a bad time, maybe the Rankin & Bass "Hobbit"?

@schumer.senate.gov has made it clear he's not ready to do anything substantive. Resign and get the hell out of the way for someone who will

How about you change the party structure and trajectory into something we want, then we'll support it.

It will need to be accompanied by a lot of other obituaries for me to feel safe

These assholes will be hunting us for sport and ol' @schumer.senate.gov will be "strategizing" on what they might be able to do about it. Get the hell out of the way and let someone who's willing to act take the reins.

In the opening scene of Snoopy Come Home, Charlie Brown and Linus are hanging out at the beach. Charlie decides to pick up a rock and give it a good toss. Linus gets upset and says to him "It took that rock 4000 years to get to shore. And now you're throwing it back". I think that's relevant here.

Unfortunately, "flushable" just means "will go down the toilet", they don't break down the way toilet paper does and thus create a lot of problems in the sewage system.

Not sure how widely available they are, but there are bourbon-style whiskeys made in Oregon and Washington that are very good

"Republican Senator BLASTS Trump's plan"... ... probably less than 12 hours before shrugging their shoulders and okay'ing it.

If your morals on this situation are so superior to everyone else's, show it. Get out there and raise hell over it. We tried our plan and it didn't work, now it's your turn. Can't wait to see your follow up plan to "sit at home and feel like I'm better than everyone".

I worked at a liquor store years ago and an upset customer threatened to return with a firearm. Cops basically said "He's gone now. What do you want us to do?" We suggested they send a patrol car just to park in the lot at closing time as a deterrent, they said they can't promise anything. Useless.
