from danger. š„°
I complained to the building manager after this incident. Have not seen said cat be allowed outside in a while. Though it loves to smugly look at me from the front window onto our shared porch.

The neighbor has a cat who she used to let run around. One night the cat had the balls to jump up on my window sill. Finn was having NOTHING to do with that. Iāve never seen him that angry over another cat before. He wouldnāt leave my side side for the rest of the night. Like he was protecting me

We noticed the other day. I know AP refuses the new name (and DT has excluded them from events bc of it.) I am unclear what guidance is from our S&P people. Iāll have to dig.

My fave was the next person who said āMr. Speakerā to her. (I guess she was presiding nor something.)

Finn has decided the bathmat in my tiny bathroom is his new favorite spot. I guess the space between the wall, tub, door, and toilet is small enough for a kitty to feel safe. Granted RN heās cuddled up to me in bed and purring very loudly.

And wasnāt it even a conservative judge who issued the order? Or am I getting it confused with a different one.

Probably one of those Chinese ships that āaccidentallyā left its anchor down.

Likeā¦Iāve seen some pretty badly kept up buildings. But I believe Russia just said āhold my vodka.ā

Iāve had several friends reach out to make sure Iām doing ok.
And actually had one of my bestieās moms be there to help talk me out of a panic attack. A trans news friend was the other one who talked me down. This happened likeā¦day 1 of you know.

Our S&P people have basically told us we need to mention that the implications and assumptions were presented without fact.

I sub to literally one newspaper: the Chicago Sun-Times which is a non-profit owned paper these days. (Owned by the Chicago NPR stationās foundation.)
Everything else I read via work access lol.

U on signal? Iām very much considering deleting blue sky off my phon. I already deleted FB & Mastodon. And while Iām not getting rid of IG, Iām not reading or posting there. (I have ongoing chats in IG messenger, as well as FB messenger, that have not moved.)

Iām not in LA but I always look at it as one of my favorite cities. So many friends out there. Itās heartbreaking to watch it go up in flames.

Really? Every reporter Iāve seen has at least a N95 and goggles on. In addition to their usual āfire gearā

And thereās a reason why Iām locked down as hard as I am. And barely post.
If I didnāt need FB for keeping in touch with some people via messenger I would not use it. Same with IG. Locked the eff down. I panicked when he got reelected and mass deleted everything I could. And basically am hiding.
comment in response to

Iām sick of this. But kinda stuck there bc I use FB messenger all the bloody time to keep in touch with a lot of people. Many of whom Iām not getting to move to a different messaging system.

This is HORRIBLE whatās going on in LA. Heartbroken. LA is one of my favorite cities. And the Santa Monica pier is my happy place. To see everything around it going up in smoke isā¦devastating.
(Aside: all of my LA friends are safe as of last check. None were in evac zones.)

To be fair. We kinda love when that happens. Well at least the control room people do.

I literally heard a news anchor say āremember that old COVID mask you had? Youāre going to need it right now.ā
ā¦though it was because the air quality is DANGEROUS.

āTeacher how do I spell this?ā
āGo look it up in the dictionary.ā

Probably more like āitās all Brandonās fault and [incoming president] will fix it by [non sensical method that will actually make things worse]ā
(Yeah. Have had to interact with a few of those.)

Much like āKleenexā is generic for facial tissue?
comment in response to
post
Yes. It does. Iād rather find out from someone than use Google tbh. I havenāt really tried DDG. I know you I think had at one point tried to look for alternativesā¦I donāt remember the results.
Sigh. Things were so much better when Altavista existed. lol.
Also isnāt āGoogleā generic for search now?
