Would you just LOOK at the rise on that rosemary olive oil bread dough?!
I mean, honestly.
That is not bad for a bitch who only bakes but twice a year.

Should we call someone about Marco? A friend or family member or something?
Photo from the AP (Martial Trezzini/Keystone) of four people sitting at a table with the flags of the United States and Ukraine prominently displayed. Two men in navy suits, one in a pink tie, the next in a blue tie, are inconsequential, as is the fourth person at the far right, a blonde woman with glasses wearing black long sleeves & a white collar. The third person is key. Also in a navy suit, but with a red tie, is Marco Rubio. Sitting slightly hunched over, comb-over a little the worse for wear, he is looking directly into the camera lens. While everyone around him seems to be listening to whomever is speaking (out of view), he is staring, with almost no affect; like a man who's been switched off at his soul. Photo from the AP (Martial Trezzini/Keystone) Two men stand side by side in front of alternating flags of Ukraine & the USA. Left of the frame, Head of the office of the President of Ukraine Andriy Yermak, looks alert and trim. His suit is well tailored, and he holds in his right hand a half-sheet of paper that he appears to be referencing, while gesticulating with his left hand. To the right, we have Marco Rubio. Marco is standing with his hands clasped in front of him at his waistline. Just above, one can see where his belly is struggling to maintain its constant within his suit jacket, as he leans back ever so slightly. If the camera lens was a target, Marco is staring off above it and to the left, again with no affect whatsoever, his head tilted ever so slightly to one side as if lost in a daydream.

I hate a dirty delete.
Screenshot of deleted skeet: Gregory the A'ight, Bluesky elder, asks "Are you white?" Interested... @citizenmke.bs..., also a Bluesky elder posted: "It's a bit of a catch-22 problem for politics in that Black women are like 99% Dem, more than any other group. Which means they both have nothing else they can do to change the situation and can be easily target as being part of the political opposition."

A nitrile-gloved hand holding a syringe full of red liquid. At the top left is the logo for the Autism Science Foundation In the center is the text "Autism and Vaccines" And below is the information: Vaccines Do Not Cause Autism There is no correlation between autism and vaccines. This has been confirmed through dozens of scientific studies examining different types of vaccines and different vaccine timing schedules. Researchers have also studied thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative used in many vaccines, to see if it has any relation to autism. The results are clear: the results show no relationship between vaccines, thimerosal, and autism.

The Trump administration told states that they must "immediately undo" any actions to provide full food stamp benefits to low- income families, in a move that added to the chaos and uncertainty surrounding the nation's largest anti-hunger program during the government shutdown. The Agriculture Department issued the command in a late-night Saturday memo, viewed later by The New York Times. That guidance threatened to impose financial penalties on states that did not “comply" quickly with the government's new orders. By Sunday morning, officials in several states said they were unsure how the latest directive from the Trump administration would affect the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, known as SNAP. The program, which serves one in eight Americans, has already faced staggering disruptions in recent days, as President Trump and his top aides have refused to fund it fully while the government remains closed.

Analysis of footage reveals Trump seeming to fight sleep White House denies he dozed off, but clips show telltale signs of fatigue President Donald Trump hosted one of the more attention-grabbing press events of his term in the Oval Office this past week, announcing price cuts for weight-loss drugs, only to be interrupted when one of the attendees collapsed in a faint. Before that dramatic turn of events, however, Trump appeared to struggle to stay awake as his health secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and two other deputies took turns explaining the announcement. Clips of the scene have circulated widely on social media and drawn heavy criticism from Democrats. A Washington Post analysis of multiple video feeds found that Trump spent nearly 20 minutes apparently battling to keep his eyes open at the Thursday event. It was a seemingly stark illustration of the strain of the presidency on a 79-year-old who typically keeps a vigorous travel schedule that even his aides say they struggle to keep up with and who has reveled in calling his predecessor "Sleepy Joe" Biden. Sitting behind the Resolute Desk on Thursday, the president displayed a constellation of... SEE TRUMP ON A2

KEY FACTS 🔴 Coast Guard Exchanges at its headquarters in Washington, D.C., and in Centreville, Virginia, recently stocked Trump-branded wine and cider, according to a photo posted on Instagram and confirmed by Forbes from calls to the stores. 🔴Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security Tricia McLaughlin confirmed the exchanges were carrying Trump wines in a statement to Forbes, saying, "The brave men and women of the USCG are pleased to be able to buy Trump wine and cider tax free." 🔴While there's been no shortage of Trump's businesses capitalizing on the presidency- from using the presidential seal on golf markers at his courses to selling a $75 coffee table book showcasing pictures by his official White House photographer-these wines are among the few times Trump products have been sold at a government facility.

Again, I ask; fellas, why are you like this?
I was kind & deleted his username & all, because it's his real fucking name.
How do I know it's real? Because I did a quick peek after checking his profile & seeing that dipshit attends not only the same uni as me, but is in the same fucking program.

Yinz! I figured out why AI pictures irritate me so goddamn much! It's because of THESE things! I was just subjected to an AI video via notebookLM for a class of mine, and I was completely and utterly distracted from what I was *supposed* to be learning by the blatant errors on the screen...

A demolition job that began Monday with the disappearance of the White House's eastern entrance advanced Tuesday with the destruction of much of the East Wing, according to a photograph obtained by The Washington Post and two people who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe the scene. Photos of construction teams knocking down parts of the East Wing, first revealed by The Washington Post on Monday, shocked preservationists, raised questions about White House overreach and lack of transparency, and sparked complaints from Democrats that President Donald Trump was damaging "the People's House" to pursue a personal priority. "They're wrecking it," said Martha Joynt Kumar, a political scientist and professor emeritus at Towson University in Maryland. "And these are changes that can't be undone. They're destroying that history forever."

Because I knew he was gonna block me as soon as I wrote it, I screen-grabbed it.

The man literally blocked everyone who disagreed with him.
When I last checked, there were 10, & over 50% were Black Americans.

Dude can fuck right off.
Original time of post, 12:09. Blocked by 12:18. She who Must Be Obeyed @heatherchirdon.bsky.social T.

See, he actually was quoted by my friend, @gregoryaight.bsky.social , who he blocked.

Only he didn't block Greg until after he QTd a Black woman (the ONLY person he QTd) for having the NERVE to call out a white Canadian man for his misogynoir.

How can he have 12 quotes and no quotes at the same time?!
The top left shows "Quotes 12 quotes", but the big text in the middle says "No quotes yet. Nobody has quotes this yet. Maybe you should be the first." And "Go Back" inside the big blue bar. But that's contradictory...

T. Ryan Gregory Bluesky Elder The angry reposts and comments this is drawing kinda make the point that folks were fine with genocide when she and Biden were were funding it and suppressing protest against it. 01 T. Ryan Gregory Btw, I was very vocal that I wanted Harris to win. Ín fact. I took a lot of crap for saying early on that Biden needed to step aside and let her run. I wanted her to distance herself from Biden on this issue in part so she would not lose. 6 T. Ryan Gregory Bluesky Elder If you're excited that she, the former Vice President, presidential candidate, and Democratic party elite "clapped back" at anti-genocide protesters, I don't know what to say

Glacier Girl's final message before she realized the error of her ways. "GlacierGrl There is nothing implying nepotism in this NPR story about a 17 year old who worked for two years and saved money, and then traveled to 118 countries, paid for by himself. He also entirely researched how to get the needed Visas, learned other languages, and planned the best routes. All on his own."

A back-&-forth under an NPR story about a child of privilege who was able, with spit, grit, determination, am& a little help from his parents' software company, to travel the globe in record-setting time between those of us who know what nepotism is & someone who does, but doesn't care: "Sam h: Typical struggle of being born into money. Glacier Girl: If you read the story, you will see he worked & saved the money for the journey, paying for it all himself. Me: Except for that software company. I feel like that maybe paid a bit better than most of em. GG: You don't know that. And who cares. It's such a great achievement, stop being such a whining ass." Reader, all I said was I think MAYBE he got a better paycheck from his dad's company than from his other jobs. There was no whine.

And before alla yinz jump on me, no, there was no alt text when I made this post. For whatever reason, big accounts like Angry and others seem to avoid making their shit accessible.
Rep. Eric Swalwell It's coming to an end guys. I've spoken to a lot of House Republicans this week and they've confided that Trump's movement/ support is fading. As one told me, "this Epstein bomb is about to drop and no want wants to defend a pedo-protector. It's just a matter of time." Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell X.com One Republican just texted me that if there's a discharge vote on Epstein they expect a "jail break" of over 100 members. Trump will go nuts!
