So my kid had an end of year project on someone famous from the state he was assigned to research and present. He got Pennsylvania. I immediately said, “you’re doing John Fetterman. He’s badass. Here lemme show you why..” and my kid was all about it. The kids dressed up as their famous person and I got the whole getup. Sweatshirt, athletic shorts, bald cap, stick on goatee, custom made rub on tattoos to match. That was really fun and John Fetterman is bad fucking ass. He should be president.

Thank goodness. It’s crazy how fatal falls can be for old folks. As a tall clumsy person, I think about this more than I should probably.

I wonder if this has anything to do with the current El Niño pattern we’re in. A surge of warm water in already warm waters sounds like a recipe for disaster.

“He has to sit on a stool for eight hours in a cubicle. That’s very uncomfortable. Every day he’d come home, he’d say his back hurts because he has to sit on a stool,”

What the fuck is this? What is the school trying to teach this kid? Certainly not to hate authority or resent the adults that are responsible for his high school success.

This is mental and physical abuse. Fuck this school. Fuck this school district. God I hate high school even to this day as a mom.

Yep, that’s the one.

Hook. It’s always Hook.

Man, can you imagine what it must be like to be a recruiter for Amazon?

The entire way their legs and hoofs are built. They’d have paws with massive claws and massive legs. They’d run more like a big cats.

Man I wish we had shittywatercolour here to draw this up.

It’s interesting scrolling through the search results. Seems like a lot of schools, municipalities, and the Philippines have a problem with distinguishing between confidential and public.

Standard Republican operating procedure. No one should be surprised by this.

Hey now, Don’t kink shame the weirdos

Aka your classic enshitification model.

Amen.

It would be nice to get out under the thumb of behemoths like Northrup and Lockheed. Motherfuckers build $1 proprietary bolts and charges the government $700 for that bolt. It’s fucking gross and it’s even grosser that it’s still going on. We need startups and new innovations to break to spending cycle STAT

here’s an interesting piece 60 minutes did on the subject https://www.cbsnews.com/news/pentagon-budget-price-gouging-military-contractors-60-minutes-2023-05-21/

Funny you should mention that. I wanted to snap this photo quickly because there most definitely would have been a bright parking lot light in that photo. For some reason it was late to turn on. Glad I caught the shot when I did.

I was a bit confused by this as well. How can the court overrule a law that prevents the court from overturning laws? It appears the court has given a huge middle finger to this law and is basically saying, “fight me”.

Netanyahu’s government could decide to ignore Monday’s ruling, setting the stage for a constitutional showdown over which branch of government has ultimate authority.

Rambutans. They look like fluffy sea urchins but you crack that shell open and it’s soooo good. Much like leches.

Ooo ooo! I have one!

Me: zero hours of sleep because steroid injection for herniated discs Back: wow, I finally feel a lot better thanks buddy!

🥲

I had a coworker who needed to resign because of severe anxiety. It was, “I live in Texas” induced anxiety. (I’m sure there was more to it but this was the jist)This is where she was born and raised. Texas is not a fun place to live.

I’ll never forget the instant fear pitted to my stomach when they announced her veep pick. The feeling was instant and it shook me for a hot second. I brushed the feeling off right away. I think it was me having a premonition of the outcome. I have no idea but come on, Tim Kaine?

Gosh I hope so

The government has made it their business via passing the law. So.. ya know…

This poor brave man. I hope he doesn’t find himself accidentally falling out of a window now that Putin and Kim are besties now.

Open windows I suspect

Man, those were the days. When high school was absolutely engaging, even in my hard classes.

And Georgia has it really bad rn as well. Basically no one is talking about how Russia has Georgia completely under its thumb. It’s really bad in Tbilisi. I wish it got more coverage.

So he read about Doe 147 and got even more disgusted than I did? Which, yeah. I don’t blame him if that was his motive.

That was some of the sickest shit I’ve ever read about someone with so much power and influence.

Re: recently unsealed Epstein documents uncover who Doe 147 is (trump) and recounts some of the experiences told by the abused girls.

Whatever happened to Kayne?

Same exact thought crossed my stoned ass mind.

Chia seeds. I sprinkle that shit on everything I can. Salad, cereal, yogurt, smoothies. It’s extremely high in fiber. But be careful, too much fiber can be a bad thing. Make sure to keep up your water intake!

I had the displeasure of unholing her from my brain a couple of days ago. I don’t even remember what I was watching, I just glanced at her face and a frigid chill suddenly came over me. It was a displeasing feeling.

Oh man, this reminds me of a really cool PBS Nova mini series on the brain and how it’s basically very flawed at perception and how we ingest the world around us. Extremely fascinating.

Yes please don’t come to Jersey city. The PATH is the stuff of commuting nightmares.

Angry upvote

Ha! Oh wow, now that’s a spicy spelling mistake! 🤌

Thank you so much!

A squatty potty really helps in the department of prolonged toilet sitting.

Sea scallops with Israeli couscous is a spot on pairing. They can both absorb the same buttery garlicky goodness you decide to use. It’s so yummy.

Thank you for your service 🫡

You can. I do. As a Jew and as someone who has family living in Jerusalem who all hate Bibi and what he stands for. Fuck Bibi and fuck the Knesset. And fuck Zuck too.
