"They showed no grace; no magnanimity of spirit; no diplomatic acumen. They were small bullies with big titles and they disrespected the history and legacy of the nation they lead.
Today, Donald Trump acted more like Russia's Putin than America's President."

"And today both men brought shame to their titles.
A weary warrior was before them. A beleaguered man who has lost thousands of his friends and comrades to the unjust and illegal aggression of an authoritarian leader. "

"Donald Trump and JD Vance didn't show strength today -- they showed weakness. They belittled a giant and showed just how small they are. They have the most vaunted titles in the world: President and Vice President of The United States of America. But the title doesn't make the man."

"We tell our truth when we defend the weak -- not when we do it only if we get protection money. We are America when our leaders call the dictators dictators and those who fight to defend democracy against tyranny what they are: heroes. "

"We are: The country of the Marshall Plan; The nation of The Berlin Airlift; The nation whose leader said, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.”
We are at our best when we are resolute against evil -- not when we kowtow to those who perpetrate it."

Ohio and New York each produces less than half the amount of syrup that Vermont does. It's not even close. Putting maple syrup in the far western end of NY, and covering VT in "urban commercial real estate" is absurd.

If you had asked me, I never would have thought it was an elephant! I would have said it's some kind of mythical horse, with ears like a bloodhound. :)

I am so proud that Washington State and Apple Health has been supporting everyone's access to contraception and other sexual health needs for decades.

Yep. It needs to be "divine intervention". Although I'm not convinced that putting Vance in his place would help our situation. Trump is a useful idiot. Vance is fully on board with the Christian Nationalist fascist pigs.

It won't make people safer drivers, but it will make me safer from them! A lot harder for someone to t-bone me in a traffic circle than it is at a standard intersection. And no "who got there first? No, you go!" standoffs like happen all the time at standard 4-way stops.

Thanks. So, they're not "banning books". But they are killing funding for children's literacy. Which is hugely problematic, in its own right.

everyone said his threats to trans people were a distraction and then he made good on them. They said his threats to immigrants were hyperbole and now he's sending people to detention camps in other countries
The actions are harmful but this is the attitude driving them.
Ignore that at your peril.

If we're sticking with the "eat" sound theme, how about "bleat"?

The same as preparing for a megathrust earthquake... food, medicine, water...

Who is pretending to have invented folklore? It's literally the words of the people - every "folk" have their own "lore".

Musk, maybe. Trump, no because SCOTUS decided that he's a king, and there can be no consequences for anything he does. They would have to impeach half of SCOTUS to get that decision rolled back.

Followed WSDOT on FB, and used their "starter pack" when I moved here. So helpful!
