The “would you still love me if I was a worm” to “babe, don’t worry it’s not a worm” pipeline

Shouldn’t he be wearing briefs?

Deep blue city with left-leaning city council, fairly blue state with supermajority representation, not a major economic contributor on a national scale like ca, ny, or wa. Plus Fox has been painting us as war ravaged for the last 5+ years, exaggerating the real unsheltered homelessness problem.

If you’re an autocrat looking for a domestic manufactured menace to justify escalation or make an example of, Portland is a great choice because the protest culture here is well established (“Little Beirut”) and our current electeds are unlikely to have Newsom level opposition

Apparently nyc, eastmoreland and dc? I had no idea his wife co-owns the venerable strand bookstore in nyc but makes sense they’d have a place there

That’s fair, but Wyden probably shouldn’t be on there either in that case?

Is the governor so underwater she’s not even a consideration?

As someone that frequently emits all three of those, any of these heuristics reflects concerningly on my true nature

To the extent that coyote body language is similar to that of domesticated dogs, “romping” is the only word I could use to describe how it was running, especially when I caught up. It seemed playful

Yeah. It ran for like two miles “with” me — running out ahead and waiting for me to catch up. I think it decided I was safe. Flattering, but probably not great for it as a wild animal

I had a similar close encounter last month in forest park but it didn’t take the hint when I told it to move along. Similar distance, 15-20’. Followed me for a while previous to this and again after. Made a friend!

Also the use of Pakistan’s tactical nuclear weapons are reportedly delegated to field command in wartime, which is a much lower barrier than Modi choosing to contradict India’s NFU policy

It’s happily unlikely in any circumstance, but having a NFU policy at least declares an intention (as does the absence of one)

Fully expected a “have you said thank you once” in the section about the free market

Let people have fun

Would be absolutely wild if they didn't use some sort of private usg vpn, but I guess no more wild than the rest of this security malpractice
