"I always hesitate to bring my political beliefs into this space. I donā€™t think my listeners would expect that from me and some of you will find it disappointing: not what you were looking for... " [1 of 2]

Same.

Sometimes in the middle of eating a rotisserie chicken I ask myself ā€œdid I just run a red light?ā€

I should probably read the article but Iā€™m going with processed food, pesticides, microplastics, evolution & increased awareness. I have 5 classes of approximately 20 HS students each. Every class has a few students either formally diagnosed or categorized as having neurodivergent traits.

"You'll be visited by three spirits" šŸŽ¶ We are spirits, in the material worldā€¦šŸŽ¶

I wrote about how Congress has turned into a senior center. How many AOCs are never elected because 80-year-olds refuse to step down? How many young lawmakers donā€™t acquire leadership roles ā€” and miss out on years of experience ā€” because seniority is prized above anything else?

Both of my daughters are engaged to be married. The ceremonies & receptions are 2 months apart in early ā€˜26. Venues contracted, guest lists on first draft. We love our girls & their partners and are thrilled but ffs when I said ā€œyou do youā€ to both of them I did not mean on this fucking schedule.

THIS is how itā€™s done, folks.

Agreed.

I admit I am challenged when it comes to recognizing a parody account. Canā€™t figure this one out (with a busted & cast right wrist, lucky I could type this with 1 finger),so after looking at his profile & posts I am not going to dig deep just to find out this guy might actually be real & not parody.

The problem with sitting at the bar all night was there's always some hazy mirror on the back wall staring at you. Shit, I already felt the spindly fingers of societys'sad desperation gripping the back of my throat I certainly didn't need to fucking witness my sad role in it #brokenpoet

BREAKING: Biden pardons Hunter

Whoever created forklifts dramatically overestimated the weight of forks

Iā€™ll bet you 20 bucks that Bluesky will have more users than Twitter within the next 12 months. Thatā€™s crazy ā€” but a GOOD crazy! šŸ˜„

Not that anyoneā€™s going to do anything about it, but it might be good to remember that, as an adjudicated oath-breaking insurrectionist, Mr.Trump is constitutionally disqualified under Sec. 3 of 14th Am from taking the oath as president on 1/20/25 unless 2/3 of both houses lift the disqualification

And every time I see it ā€¦

As we enter the holiday season, let us remember the household staff at the peopleā€™s house who will have to welcome a new resident this coming January. Though theyā€™ve been through most of it before, theyā€™ll now have to ready a room for Musk. Canā€™t be easy for them.

Was grading an exam and a student just put ā€œbruh what even is this questionā€ as their answer. Honestly, I feel you

My daughter clerks at EDNY & she studied for the bar exam at my kitchen table, so Iā€™m putting my hat in the ring to be the next AG.

Stumbled across ā€œAlpha Houseā€ last night solely because John Goodman was in it. After a few episodes experienced some nostalgia for the old GOP clowns who I didnā€™t like or take seriously back then. It was kind of nice to laugh instead of shudder at least.

I like Bluesky. My favorite ā€œother placeā€ follows, resisters, news feeds are here, trolly fascist incoming administration supporters donā€™t last long, starter packs, all coolā€¦but really cool is the ability to curate feeds. Music, pets, art, travel, tech, ed, cultureā€¦we manage our feeds. Lovely.

And Iā€™m gonna repost it every time I see it.

In the Battle of Thermopylae (480BC), a small force of Greek soldiers fought valiantly against a mighty Persian army, knowing they could never win. Their task was to slow down the Persian advance until reinforcements across Greece could be mustered. ...šŸ§µ
