I'm excited about the new Ken Burns American Revolution documentary. Been thinking about Concord and how it was such an important pilgrimage for me as a lover of American Transcendentalism, and how it was also a pilgrimage in the American civil religion.

It's blaspheming turkey day for me to do this so early, but fuck it. We all need more than a little Christmas this year.
Share a Christmas movie 🎄

I've done it multiple times and it's so depressing.
A fun exercise is thinking about how far down the presidential line of succession you'd have to go before you find someone who isn't involved in committing or covering up the most heinous crimes known to man. You have to impeach everyone until you get there

If you had told me a decade ago that we would elect a pedophile to the Oval Office (twice) before we elected a woman, I would’ve called you crazy.

Boy do I feel sheepish right now.

This thread has been such a great start to my day. ❤️ Thank you, @pftompkins.bsky.social !
I am calling upon the people of Ireland to immediately begin construction of a thread on this site about how you or someone you know was roasted for a fashion choice. We need it.

All roasts must have come from Irish people *only*. Please respect this important rule, it makes a difference.

I have acclimated to Colorado over the past 8 years such that my preferred temp range is now highs in the 50s and lows in the 20s and 30s.
I'm annoyed with the warmer fall we're having so far. 70 degrees on November 11th and no snow yet this year.
Pikes Peak was dry when I looked at it yesterday.

From 2023: "There are abusers and there are enablers. There is an overt authoritarian death cult and a soft-focus death cult. The two parties are not the same -- and that's the point. They work in tandem to create this nightmare."

I asked Georgetown law prof David Super wtf is going on with this latest demand for states to claw back benefits already sent out.
He says the law doesn't allow for this, and if the USDA is mad that states already sent out SNAP money, too bad—they were following USDA's own guidance. Full comments:

We're extremely dishonest about the realities of aging in this country. The older I get, the more this becomes apparent to me.

They’re wearing masks so they can’t be prosecuted later. As long as they think they can’t be prosecuted, their crimes will intensify. They will torture, starve and kill, as they have already, on greater and greater scale.

I’ve come to believe that we need to gather considerable forces and a campaign to demand the removal of face masks by ICE, Border Patrol, FBI and police.

It is a practice in conflict with the principles of transparency & accountability that are central to the concept of democracy.
Video on social media shows an immigration agent pulling a gun in Little Village and holding it to the side — which is not an appropriate or safe way to hold a gun. (Among other issues.)

My mom has been in the hospital and was so worried it would be hard for me to get there if I need to. (Last minute plane tix are prohibitively expensive and flights are getting canceled everywhere)
The hubby and I share a car and that makes it hard to drive, too, with work, but we have a plan.

I am totally high from eating some of the great northern bean and barley soup I just made. This is the 3rd soup with barley I've made in about the past month.
Goddamn do I love soup season.
