Anyone who has been following, she is done. This is my accidentally huge crochet octopus that was taking up my entire craft area. I need a name for her 🥰

So here’s the thing. Fenrir isn’t inherently a Nazi symbol. It was a small portion of anti Soviet Nazi propaganda for a hot minute. But what IS widely known is the Nazis appropriated Norse mythology. So if I’m covering up a Nazi symbol, with a Norse character, I’d double check all of that.

The Royal Lancers do not use this because it is a hate symbol. This is easily verified information.

You vote to keep the guy with the Nazi tattoo out. Here's the thing that Americans aren't grasping. Platner's policies of supporting Palestine and Native Americans aren't out of alignment with white supremacy ideology historically.

This isn’t just random skull imagery like a pirate flag from Spirit Halloween . It’s a totenkopf, which was used by Hitler. It’s used by neo-Nazis in the US today. If someone tattooed a Nazi symbol on me bc I was a dumbass and didn’t know what it was, it would be covered the moment I found out.

1) There is belief the website listed the necklace as "lightening bolt." It never did. 2) Someone pulled the Midnights album, which when you put 4 variants together makes a clock on the back. The claim is flipping the clock over makes the fronts into a swastika. It doesn't.

I’m still hyper fixated on Taylor Swift conspiracy theories and asked my husband, the computer engineer, to help me collect data so I can do a proper analysis. He asked what I was doing. Live shot of my explaining all this:

So here is the video that started it if anyone is interested. It had to be trimmed down to upload. I think it’s pretty funny to freak out about a North Star charm being an “iron cross” while wearing Van Cleef.

Vacation rentals are up too. Snowbirds aren’t tourists and will never be counted as such bc they own homes or use long term rentals. What we do know is that international tourism is down but domestic tourism has increased enough to surpass what was lost. I won’t complain about fewer snowbirds, ever.

Hotel occupancy in Sarasota and surrounding counties was up in July. September and October are the slowest tourism months but sometimes you get falsely high numbers from hurricane evacuations. So July is a much more reliable month to look at. And tourism isn’t going down.

Oh hey, so the AI was wrong and you should definitely do your own research instead of looking like a misogynistic ass. Do. Your. Own. Research.

I'd like to petition to give what was once the territory of West Florida to any other state that will take it. Let's keep East Florida as Florida. Floridians often refer to the panhandle as the Alabama Annex anyway. They aren't like the rest of us.

I can’t imagine talking this condescendingly about a policy of which one is completely ignorant. Before our recycling program people would burn or bury their garbage, which is just a few feet above the aquifer. Major problem that needs policy response…

A lie? That’s bold of you. You do realize that word have meanings, yes? 🤣🤣🤣 7% is hardly crushing it. If she can distance herself from Bernie and actually get something done, she has a shot in the future.

Another tale of 2 governors. Lower the flag bc the president ordered it. Why TF does Josh Shapiro want to “pay tribute” to a white nationalist?

I keep being told Andy Beshear is a centrist who will eagerly compromise our rights away and Gavin Newsom is a progressive who will stand up. Compare their statements. Which governor is doting on a white nationalist and which one said what was appropriate?

This is not the body of a fully mature woman. Ask any man to draw a woman and they give you something that is completely disproportionate. Ex: all women depicted in comics. But Mr Grabthembythepussy is different? Nah.

This is one page of a much longer undergrad paper I wrote on motherhood under enslavement. The research for the paper broke me. “Slavery isn’t that bad.” Mothers who thought their children would be better off dead than enslaved would disagree.

I’m in Atlanta for a work trip. Every time I travel anywhere for work I try to go to a local museum. This trip features the Museum of Puppetry. They have puppets from all over the world but I was most excited about Big Bird.
