Hey fam, if you're into marching band, drum corps, winter guard, indoor drumline, color guard, or anything else marching related and you're wanting to find other like-minded individuals on here, I've got a starter packing going for that: go.bsky.app/6PeLNjS
It isn't a trade war. It's market manipulation.

From today's Chronicle of Higher Ed briefing. I am *never* an advocate of cutting programs. But I am curious to see if there will be the same type of "students aren't majoring in this, so let's cut the program" discourse around computer science as there always is for the arts and humanities.

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

Every single Democratic senator that votes to cave on this should be immediately ejected from the party, and the national party should immediately start running primary candidates in their districts.

There is no bipartisanship possible with traitors and fascists. You either fight, or die.

PEOPLE, YOU ARE ALLOWED TO PAINT THE INTERIORS OF YOUR RESIDENCES SOMETHING OTHER THAN WHITE. IT IS OKAY TO USE SOMETHING ELSE ON YOUR WALLS AND/OR TRIM.

I'll add to this list:

Drill bits
Paper maps or an atlas
Rubs, seasoning, or sauces for food
Nice mechanical pencils

Last year I did a Middle Aged Man Gift Guide and Advice Thread on Mastodon.

Middle Aged Men are difficult to think of gifts for- it is why there are so many jokes about just getting them socks.

But even Middle Aged Men have gift dreams- even if they don’t know what they are themselves.

I'll help

Why does the House, the larger of the two legislative bodies, not simply eat the Senate

Gonna make an attempt to fix up this tambourine that is older than I am, and maybe older than my dad. The jingles on it are so good that it's worth a shot.

Norris has been with McLaren since 2019 and endured the worst that McLaren could give him far more than Piastri will ever know. Norris didn't get his first win until his 6th season with the team, whereas Piastri was gifted his first win by the team in barely his 2nd season.
TLDR, Mclaren psychologically ruined Piastri at Monza and it's becoming clearer he's not going to recover from it. I'm not sure I can forgive them. In their nonsense quest for fairness they made the situation patently unfair for him.

All I want for Xmas is for the Cardinals to go bankrupt and get contracted by the MLB.
The fan section at CPKC bars gear from visiting teams and that should include STL Cards merch. GTFO with your Cards beanie

Mamdani is going to implement shawarma law and that's Greek to me.
Mamdani is going to implement Shakira law, and his hips don't lie.
Mamdani is going to implement Shania law, and that don’t impress me much.

I saw someone on my timeline shaming someone else for posting about college football in a time like this.

Folks, if we're going to survive a time like this, we're going to need to avoid burning out from an attitude of 24/7 vigilance and constant outrage.

Let people find joy where they can, please.

I have a lot of chile peppers again. Someone tell me what to make with them. They're Anaheim peppers, so pretend they're New Mexican Hatch Chile peppers.
