I LOVE this energy, but NGL I did feel a little bit sad for the woman in the blue scarf sitting behind him when he started this justified tirade; she looked like she was reaching for something on the floor and his volume scared the crap outta her, she popped straight back up again!

I trust Wyden and Merkley here in Oregon, but left voicemails nonetheless! I intend on continuing to make my voice heard. Hoping we can count on them like I believe we can. They've been on the side of Democracy this far.

Yes, but going to voicemail... hoping this means the lines are flooded!

Can't get a human at @jeff-merkley.bsky.social or @wyden.senate.gov offices, but I called and left my message, doing my best to make my voice heard! We are counting on you, Senators Merkley and Wyden! No on cloture, NO on the CR. Save our democracy!

This is a perfectly cromulent response.

They're just bigger assholes. Karma will get them in the end.

I'm creating SPACE for creativity by working to clear out the clutter in the garage and organize all my projects in a way that will help me actually ACCESS the craft supplies I have and be creative! It's an emotional process as I let go of things from past iterations of myself, but so freeing!

Do I have to pick the FIRST one? Cause... so much NOPE happening with my name.

Brings back fond memories of a trip there with my 11 a few years back; loved seeing his alma mater and found Manhattan to be a truly delightful town. Your story about the chance encounter with the cast felt magical; perfect TBTL content!

Has it been that long already? Wow! Time really does fly when you're having fun! 😊

I call one of my kids "bug" as a nickname. Can't even remember how that started.

I like it! 😊 Pocket friends is a great way to think about it. I have pocket friendships that have already lasted 25+ years!
comment in response to post
LOL pocket friends, I like that even if I think you might have meant podcast friends? 😜

This brings me so much joy every time I come across it.

I won't judge you for being loud about your work, but by the same token, please don't judge me for going about my work quietly, either. We must all do whatever we can each day, to the best of our ability, and yet not so much that we can't get up and do it again tomorrow. (4/4)

I will care for my physical and mental health, that of my family, my community, and ESPECIALLY do what I can for people in my sphere who are oppressed, threatened or marginalized. (3/4)
comment in response to post
HOWEVER, if I choose to let go of hope and joy in the face of it all, then the darkness wins, so I'm going to do my damnedest not to let that happen. (2/4)

Who me? Jealous? NAHHH. ;) Seriously, what an AWESOME, creative and fun gift!

So glad to hear this, we do the same thing for everyone in our family. Peace of mind.

Also, PLEASE consider visiting Experian, Equifax & TransUnion, the 3 major credit reporting bureaus, and putting a freeze on your credit (sadly, has to be done with each but it's FREE). It's important to shut the scammers down AND protect yourself from identity theft.

Have you actively spoken to customer service, or are you only resubmitting the claim? Call them & escalate, escalate, escalate. Be assertive. DOCUMENT everything. Also, have you searched for other victims of the same fake pet store online? Maybe you can provide proof that you're not the only one. 🀞

What does it MEAN though?!

Thank you, I wouldn't have seen this if you hadn't brought it to my attention... I'm still learning how BlueSky works!
comment in response to post
Oof, really sorry you had to go through it alone, it's a really uncomfortable procedure even with the benefit of some pain relief on board beforehand! πŸ€—

Is the soccer ball for scale? Was it stuck in the tree branches and came down with the tree? I'm so curious. Very glad that it sounds like no one was hurt and no major property damage though!

I'm 48, still need an explainer on Limp Bizkit, thanks ;)

Not sure I follow this, but super curious now. πŸ˜…

Including the pot, too? Wicked cool.

That's where I learned about it too! I still sing the song in my head when I'm putting away pie or anytime I see it in life, "we're talking 'bout tessellation, ooo-oooh, tessellation"!
comment in response to post
I tessellate leftover pie wedges.

Not someone I would have met personally on multiple occasions by any chance?

Hey, I am going to be brave and admit that I have never seen WICKED and the only music I know from it are PARTS of "Popular" and "Defying Gravity". I don't think it's elitist to want to experience ANY film without people talking OR singing through it! That's just common courtesy AFAIC.

We're going on Sunday... this is information I need.
comment in response to post
I'd be interested to know. That said, they're recently under new ownership so we'll see how things go! Who knows if a name change might even be on the horizon.
