Excerpt from Dune by Frank Hebert that really stuck with me.
Excerpt from Dune by Frank Hebert: She had quoted a Bene Gesserit proverb to him: "When religion and politics travel in the same cart, the riders believe nothing can stand in their way. Their movement becomes headlong- faster and faster and faster. They put aside all thought of obstacles and forget that a precipice does not show itself to the man in a blind rush until it's too late."

Jacobs: There's zero deals so far. Why is that?

Trump: No, there’s many deals.

...

J: Not one has been announced yet. When are you going to announce them?

T: I’ve made 200 deals.

J: You’ve made 200 deals?

T: 100%.

Grabbed this after he hit for the cycle. I kept this as my profile pic for a year. The Brock Star made watching the Red Sox fun.
Brock Holt is getting a bucket of water, maybe sports drink, poured over his head by a fellow player, I think JBJ. Brock is smiling.

He says that they're only going after gang members with face-tattoos. Meanwhile...
Data first obtained by NBC News shows that Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested a total of 1,179 people on Sunday, which is more than the 956 arrests that the agency posted on X on Sunday night. But just 613 of those total arrests — nearly 52% — were considered “criminal arrests.” The rest appear to be nonviolent offenders or people who have not committed any criminal offense other than crossing the border illegally. When breaking down those arrests, eight were considered “Worst Criminals Arrested,” including two gang members, according to the official. Still, at least 566 people arrested Sunday had not committed any crimes and were only detained because they lacked legal authorization to remain in the United States.

Who is your celebrity “Birthday Twin” (born same day as you)? Answer with pic or gif only
Nancy Walker's headshot. She wears a cream colored twin set and two necklaces of different but complementary styles. Her hair is styled away from her face in her signature style. Though she is not fully smiling, her expression does suggest contentment.

They saved my favorite part to the end
Schwimmer was gracious, describing “Friends” as “the gift that keeps on giving.” “When I meet people on the street from another country and they say, ‘I just have to say, I learned English watching your show,’ or a father stops me and says, ‘My kid was really, really ill and the one thing that kept them going in the hospital was watching “Friends,”’ you feel really grateful and blessed to have done something that people find fun,” he said.

I like how happy my Cajun seasoning is to spice up my vegetables.

Check out North Adams in western Mass. It has the art vibe, plus this is the view from my brother's house out there.
Photo taken from a front porch with bricked walls. Past the walls, there are multiple buildings that could be housing or commercial. Beyond the buildings are a mountain and a beautiful sky on a bright but slightly cloudy day.

The last of the bulls is still at large.
The North Attleboro Fire Department reports that rodeo personnel are still actively searching for the remaining bull on the loose. No town assets or emergency personnel are involved in today's search efforts. Community members should exercise extreme caution and not approach the bull if found. If found, community members should call 9-1-1.

Not completely true. It is a different Steve Martin who made the comment. Still a valid response to the ridiculous suggestion that geese are being carried away.

Here is an example of a screen shot that is commented on by many in my Bluesky community, but I cannot read the content.

I'd like to throw Tyler Labine's name into the ring. I first knew him as a character named Sock, and when I saw JD, I thought, yup, that's him, that's a Sock.

Please add alt text. Your posted screenshot looks like this on my phone.

Brutal.
A screen shot of a screen shot. The gray blurbs (aligned left) are from someone who wants to golf. The green blurbs (aligned right) is someone joking (we hope) about using one of their clubs for violence. Whatever is the point is lost on me because of all the zooming and screen-shifting I have to do to read it.

From MLB:
In consultation with Major League Baseball, the Red Sox on Monday issued an unpaid two-game suspension to outfielder Jarren Duran beginning with tonight's game against the Texas Rangers at Fenway Park. Additionally, Duran’s salary from the two-game suspension will be donated to PFLAG (Federation of Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays), the United States’ largest organization dedicated to supporting, educating, and advocating for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people and those who love them.

Especially when X is actively working against people finding the Kamala HQ account
Search results on X for 'Kamala HQ' provide @realDonaldTrump as the first result and multiple other results that are not Kamala Harris' HQ account
