SPC Zachary Boyd, 2009, Afghanistan...

Soldiers never change. It reminds me of the dick drawings on Hadrian's Wall and the ones in every Porta John I ever entered while serving.

2 MAGAts and I had a very civil conversation tonight. It started with immigration and this is where we found agreement. Both parties are beholden to shareholders.

God dang...I feel pretty.

One expressed disappointment with Doge....sooo...

No...no...

It's not okay. A freaking prison inmate can tell you it's not okay.

Let's Primary some people. I am anti-political party so understand the level of frustration I am at to change that.

Wow looks like my car...

So anyway the other week I had expressed concern that they weren't taking parts of my wife's health seriously enough....so guess where we are again?

Hey Dems, another of yours you may want to follow and support. @jthoff22.bsky.social

He's pro-LGBTQ, I've known him for over a decade now. An Appalachian and an awesome person.

Who is also younger than me and looks older. 😄

Can someone alt text this for me. I am too grossed out, but felt it was worth sharing. This is the euphemisms these Fascist fucks are using.

@thejustindouglas.bsky.social do you have any information yet?

Awww, little buddy is mad that he lost the Mayoral election to a black woman.

In my lifetime, there have been 2 white men and 2 black women as mayor of Harrisburg. Get over yourself. You lost.

We won in Gettysburg.

Outside of my small town turning blue, this result made me feel good. These two women didn't have a lot of advertising and Chardo was our DA so his name was out there. They won anyway.

I need to stress this is not the usual, "Well if you committed a crime, here's how to make prison food." This is literally a survival guide for those of us who didn't commit a crime and still face being locked up. If there are questions, I'll do a part 2. /

According to my daughter a 1969 Mercury Cyclone is a valid ingredient.

A Republican VP who helped pave the way for the nonsense we see today dies, normally a President, even a Democrat one, would make some statement on condolences to the family and order the flags to half staff.

First non-presidential election I ever voted in. For future reference, Dems, or general Progressives, please come up with lists for smaller elections. In rural and semi-rural areas we have a lot of cross-listed people or even Republicans that in a State or National election would be Democrats.

Hey Selinsgrove, PA. I've known @jthoff22.bsky.social for years. He's a good one.

They put a lot of time into it and never thought, "this is a bad idea."

This is closer to what a bathroom would look like in the time of Lincoln, while being up to date, and has some marble, wood, and visible plumbing which I personally think looks cool.
