issue with “hire more conservative professors” is that they don’t mean “hire a smart guy who happens to think taxes should be lower”, they mean “hire a movement conservative”, and these days there are multiple litmus tests for being that type of person that are “insist this false thing is true”

Saw a cybertruck and my son asked why Elon Musk would think that looked good and I said "remember that drug they gave you at the hospital when you broke your arm, and you got scared and said everyone had 4 eyes? he takes that all the time"

i'm looking for a job. my resume is i can do anything and everyone likes me

It's 7pm, we picked up Chipotle and we're heading home to finish packing. Bed by 10pm, up at 6am. Big move day tomorrow.

I'm so fucking out of shape. I'm so tired of climbing stairs. I keep telling myself that the more I do it the easier it gets but right now it's fucking hard as shit

happy twin peaks day

It's not even 8am. Should I be packing? The kid is still asleep, and we had planned to get up at 9, but I don't want to make too much noise yet. I think I'm going to sit here and drink my coffee and enjoy my last morning here. Oh gosh, NOW I cry?! Ok damnit.

A president rapidly sundowning into full-blown dementia ambiguously handed power over the entire government to a delusional billionaire drug addict in a made-up illegal quasi-office and the Cabinet is split over whether their departments have to listen to his mad orders. It's day 34.

So we are on the top/3rd floor at the new place, and being under the eaves, that means wasps. So @ptgt1999.bsky.social got some spray and killed a couple and preemptively sprayed up and around the eaves. We're screened in, but I still don't want to be near them. *shudder*

I need to get up and make coffee! Ugh get up, me!

I’m not doomscrolling I’m just desperately sucking the marrow from the bones of hope

I've posted a final pre-move blog post: samati.dreamwidth.org

Good morning. I went to bed at 10:30, asleep by 11, and now it's 6:30 and I'm up. My alarm is set for 9, but I should have known I wouldn't sleep that long! It's still dark outside, and I'm going to make a cup of coffee and enjoy the silence, before the day-before-move craziness starts.

James Webb Satellite took a fantastic shot of the Planet Saturn with it's Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI). This is just an Amazing shot that shows the planet and the rings in brilliant detail.

everyone on BlueSky recently

I don’t understand defending powerful people from critique.

It's just 8:45 and I'm in bed. I haven't been this active in years, nor have I been this stressed. Tomorrow I have a PDoc appt and the kid has a physical, but between that we're staying home and packing all day. I need a last day at home before we leave it forever. 😢

BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism. As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

seen in newark, new jersey 🔥

I need curtains. Such a pain.

We have groceries. Tons of frozen meals lol too many. Had our first meal (McDonald's) in lawn chairs and TV trays lol

Tactical clippers

Well I know they person's name who moved out of the new place cause I'm getting all their mail. I guess they didn't set up forwarding in time.

I went to bed at 12 and it's now 2 and I'm still wide awake. I'm going to sit here at the computer for a bit and contemplate my existence until I get sleepy, I guess.

Yes, I AM jealous.

I'm like, in a weird state of being. Our home of over 20 years is in total chaos and disarray, and we're expected to treat this new place like home, and I don't feel that way yet.

Priorities #Pokemon @ptgt1999.bsky.social

I love this oak tree!

We left the new place, went to home depot, went home and relaxed for a couple of hours, went and ate at Jason's Deli, and are now back at the new place.

If Luigi walks because of David Zaslav and Eric Adams I will laugh so hard I will probably have a stroke and die.

RIP Lynne Marie Stewart :(

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

You wonderful fucks better reply all

I'm discovering it is so fucking hard to fit the stuff from my old home into my new home. The dimensions are all off. It's really frustrating, and expensive.

We're at the new place. We came by last night and brought a few things, and a few more today. Someone came by the old place and took the loveseat and the office chair. I kind of promised the W/D to two people and now I have to lie to one 😢

Posting my embroidery so people can find me... 🐯 #embroidery #handembroidery

I wish 1/10th of the posts on my feed were about music.

they don't tell you that being an adult is just a constant sisyphean task of going to the grocery store

This muthafukka really doesn't take a bad shot.

Luigi Mangione STUNS in bulletproof vest!

drugs have taken too many beloved celebrities from us over the years but drugs also have a rare chance right now to radically rehabilitate their image
