I was into eating pine cones BEFORE it was popular...

Frenemies with the Babadork.
Nonbinary. I use any animate pronouns.

Crazy for bad movies and forgotten cultural ephemera. May be found prowling used book and periodical sales.

Since Trump's administration really seems to be trying to push the idea that antifa is an org, not simply being anti-fascist, I have a suggestion:

Switch out your black bloc's uniform for GOLD. Have members all dress in matching metallic gold outfits, same type they otherwise would be, just gold.
Is YOUR state, Tribe, or territory participating in the Summer EBT Program (Sun Bucks) for poor children this year? Find out, and raise hell if the answer is 'No'!

This never happened. France does not negotiate on tariffs; the EU negotiates for all EU members. France's population is also 69 million, not 39 million.

Trump is now, demonstrably, hallucinating conversations that did not and could not happen.

Trump is incoherently ranting and raving during this speech to House Republicans, who are sitting in silence as his brain flits around wildly

It's an MTV simulator with almost 30,000 videos, organized by decade, with special sections for Headbanger's Ball and Yo! MTV Raps. This is so good.

There are only 218 Republicans left in the House.

Make them produce a majority every day, every hour, for every thing.
Rep. Doug LaMalfa,who died this morning, was one of 147 Republicans who voted to overturn the 2020 election.

It was defining moment of his political career—one that must not be forgotten on the anniversary of January 6.

If Dems talked like this regularly, we wouldn't have to focus on "how to win close elections in difficult environments." We would have a lot fewer close elections, and a lot fewer difficult environments.
Walz is out of Fs: "Not a single Republican supported this, so every Minnesotan from here on, whoever uses this program, there is no bit of thanks that would go to the R legislators who did all they could to stop this ... our schools have money to pay their teachers? I'll take credit for that too."

That’s right!
Trump: "You gotta win the midterms. Because if we don't win the midterms, they'll find a reason to impeach me. I'll get impeached."

Courts are using originalist arguments to expand executive power, weaken long-standing rights and protections, and entrench inequality. It’s crucial that lawyers push back. Our new guide shows you how. bit.ly/4iQ1v0B

Officers like @libradunn1.bsky.social saved my life and my colleagues’ lives on January 6th. I’m forever grateful to the law enforcement officials who courageously defended our Capitol and our democracy from the armed insurrectionists.

Also if you wake up and find a bat in the room you were sleeping in.

I had to get rabies shots for that very reason. And I didn't even know about that until my over-protective older sister told me, and I looked it up and was like, "Sh**, she's right," so I owe her for that.

Their teeth are incredibly sharp so they can bite through even a thick pair of gloves. It happened to me! You also need to be firm with the ER about receiving the vaccine! After my exposure the Doctor refused to administer it because he could not see the bite mark so I had to go to a second ER.

Hardly any discomfort. Just the usual low ache at the injection spot, like other shots.

Although that first "day-of" set was quite a collection!

For those that don't know: Rabies can be treated, but not after you show symptoms. Once you show signs of infection you are dead man walking.

It's because some bats can bite and scratch in ways that are painless and not easily visible and later people have then died from rabies.

yes, you can get rabies from a scratch, a rabid animal may have licked it's claws/paws.

It's nothing to play around with.

For people in the US.

If a bat touches you and you're not controlling it like this with thick gloves and knowing what you're doing

You need to get a rabies vaccination and I'm deadly serious.

If a bat *touches* you.
PSA for any bat-friends inspired by this post: thick work gloves like the ones being worn in this picture are absolutely necessary before attempting to handle a bat! Do not let it anywhere near bare skin! And if it appears ill or is acting erratically, do not approach, just call a pro
Hey if I'm late on my next deadline its because I just spent 2 hours swabbing this guy with oil to save him from a moth trap

Minnesotans didn’t ask for Kristi Noem to have a camera crew follow her around while masked ICE agents harass our neighbors like it’s some sick and twisted reality show.

Curtis Yarvin has written a very long screed in defense of his post in which he said, “Hitler spoke the truth.”

A sampling of select portions is below and includes, in reference to Jewish people, the words:

“The only way to tell is the name and the nose.”

Long shot, but does anyone know of any UK triathlon competitions that don't have exclusionary gender politics? The one I raced with two years ago seems to have fallen into line with British Triathlon.
