I had a cat named Boo.

He died. He died.

Mom told me he was sleeping.

She lied! She lied!

Why oh why is my poor kitty dead?

Couldn't that cancer have killed #Elon instead?

Watched the video, @jessiegender.bsky.social. So let me just say this. I am not a New Trek hater. I liked most of Discovery, some of Picard. Loved Lower Decks and Prodigy.

But if they only way to keep #StarTrek alive is no turn it into the antithesis of everything it stands for, then let it die.

These stuffies were placed outside the US Embassy in Ottawa. Their signs originally read "Yankee, stay home." Which I interpreted to mean, "Don't invade us."

But I would rather the signs say this. #cdnpoli #immigration

I stumbled across this disgusting joke, reported it and got this BS response from Meta.

Now I'm gonna ask you guys to report it. And to have your followers do the same. Let's ruin a Nazi's day.

If any of you are on Facebook, I want you to report these assholes.

Because of the cover, I often pictured Rand wearing blue jeans when I was reading the books. @frenzy5150.bsky.social @newsynonsense.bsky.social

So set me get this straight. The pro-Israel lobby is defending a Nazi salute.

This is what I was talking about five years ago. Dishonest people will appropriate social-justice language to cover their crimes. Don't fall for it.

Only one human captain has ever survived battle with the minbari fleet. He is behind me. You are in front of me. If you value your lives, be somewhere else.

See what I mean?

I don't think for a second that RFK and his ilk sincerely believe that the Polio vaccine is dangerous.

They're doing this because they want kids to get sick.

They want to make the world worse.

Conservatism is an ideological commitment to evil.

All right, this one I know.

Black takes the queen. Then Knight to a6, check. It's a double check; so, the king has to move. c7 is cut off by the knight, b7 by the rook. So, that leaves only a8. Then rook to b8, checkmate.

Okay @rasmansa.bsky.social help me 'et.

The purpose of the sacrifice is to divert the bishop so that it can't block check.

Next move is Qg5. Bg7 is instamate so the king must go to h7.

Then Qh5. If Kg8, put the queen on h8. But black will probably block Bh6. And all I got is Bg5.
December 11, 2024 at 5:54 PM
Why is it a great move?

If Qxe1, Qg2 is checkmate.

If Rxe1, Bxd4 (The purpose of Re1+ was to get the rook off the d file)

If Qxd4, then Qg2#
If Re8+, Rxe8 (This is a flailing move)

Even if the queen stays on f2, it's now pinned and can't capture when you play Qg2#

Why is this a brilliant move puzzle?

Okay, I got it.

The king takes the queen; there's no other choice. Then white plays bishop to a5, double check. The king has to move and can only go back to e8. Rook to d8 is checkmate. @rasmansa.bsky.social

Here was mine.

I envy your blast processing.

Okay, here's one for you. You tell if this is RSD. I just saw this.

I have 28 - soon to be 29 - books in print. I am one of my publisher's highest paid authors.

I cannot bring myself to say "you should check out my books."

Just bought these guys for my little nephew's birthday. I was hoping for something that would have either Peter Parker/Miles Morales and Gwen Stacy. It was nice to get all three.

This is why you don't give #fascists an inch. Because they always take a mile.
