A water-patterned drinking glass is half full (iykyk) of water and overflowing with fresh basil and mint. It sits on a black, speckled kitchen counter lined with dry food containers. The air is heavy with herb

"No, not at all. they definitely deserved it." - Premier #Trump, on whether the recent #DOJ cases against his perceived enemies were politically motivated prosecutions

#LetitiaJames #DementiaDonnie #USGovernment #Amerikkka
#PapawsWarRecords
from Aaron Rupar: "Trump brought printouts to his 60 Minutes interview of the 'wars' he's 'ended'." My addendum: Attached is a sad pic of Papaw Donnie waving his "war record" around: another one of his crayon drawings of him holding a sword and the American flag, a fake gold crown shoved on his fat, greasy head, and all the people on their knees, thanking him for being so powerful and manly. Go to bed, Papaw. We're done listening to your bullshit. transcription from Meidas Touch: Trump: "There was, like, nothing. Wait, just one second. They opened these-- I'm a very meticulous person too. I have files, beautiful. They took the files, threw 'em all over the phone- all over the floor. They were all over the floor- and they took pictures of'em. This is my office. I said, 'What the hell? That's not my office.' They took files, they threw 'em all over, and they took pictures and they released 'em to the public that this is 'President Trump's office. We caught him with all of this stuff,' like it was all over the floor in my office. These are crooked people. These are the same. So don't ask me about, 'Did you go after?' Letitia's--" *controlled breathing**teeth grinding*

your late night treat:

I call this "Two Bebes, One Hot Water Bottle, and an Auntie Bap" or "Autumn in Atlanta 2025".
Two lanky kittens, one calico, one mostly Maine coon calico, sprawl on a faux fur-covered hot water bottle. Their almost-loving Auntie is a ticked tabby loaf on the other side of the wall of warmth. All four share the confines of a lemon colored hassock softened with a pink afghan. The room is warm with purrs

seriously, "fertility rate"???

also, did no one ever teach this man about apples to apples comparisons? 👇
from L'istessotempo @listessotempo.bsky.... How many of those children were wanted children? The Pill did not exist. Single women could not freely access contraception. Abortion was illegal. No-fault divorce was unavailable. It was legal to pay women less than men and to deny them credit. They want to take us back to those days.

I'm not the one who sought and obtained a political position that would require me to know what to do when the ruling party attempts to install the President as a dictator! I don't know, just start trying shit! lock him in the dungeon! the answer can't be "nothing, and also you're not allowed to criticize them" this is your fucking job that you're being paid to do.

now #Republicans WANT to track #wastewater levels. but not for #COVID. for #AbortionPill residue
from J. Offir, PhD@joffirphd.bsky.social: 2/ "members of Congress to [the EPA admin], asking the agency to investigate how the abortion drug mifepristone might be contaminating the water supply. "EPA officials said 'the general technology they had developed for testing wastewater could be used for surveillance in states where abortion is.. 3/ "'illegal. In an extreme case...wastewater testing could help identify a particular street or home where the pills were used, though such measures would be legally fraught and extremely costly.'

now he's firing attorneys enforcing the #FairHousingAct,

cuz he's the epitome of the a$$hole landlord.

#Eugenics ties right in with #homelessness. and #poverty.
from Alt National Park Service @altnps.bsk.social: Two civil rights attorneys who had spoken out against the Trump administration's efforts to weaken enforcement of the Fair Housing Act were dismissed from their posts. Their work enforcing the Fair Housing Act (a cornerstone of U.S. civil rights) involved investigating and prosecuting landlords, real estate agents, lenders, and others accused of discrimination on the basis of race, religion, gender, family status, or disability. Since January, their office has been hit with steep budget cuts and new procedures that have slowed or halted thousands of pending discrimination cases. (Story link attached)

CHECK IT! if you're looking to #rent a property anytime soon or in the future, look out for a loss of #IntellectualPropertyRights clause
from Purplepingers on Bluesky: "I posted yesterday about a strange term in a tenancy agreement possibly asking me to sign away intellectual property rights. After advice given here, I emailed the agent to ask for some clarification. "The agent replied telling me not to worry, which in itself worried me. He suggested I call him, which I did. "He told me on the phone that the term is there because lots of people these days are making money from activities at home like streaming or music recording, and that because this would not be possible without the rental property, that the landlord should receive recognition for this. I told him that this didn't sound right, but he kept telling me that more and more agreements now have this term, and that they advise all their landlords to include it. "I told him I wanted to speak to the Tenant's Union for some more advice before proceeding, and he got angry and told me I was wasting his time, and told me that agents in NSW keep a 'shared list of timewasters' and that this might affect my future applications if I decided not to sign. I told him I just needed to check my rights and I would call him back ASAP. "About an hour later he emailed to say the landlord no longer wanted to go ahead with my application. "I guess that means it's back to searching, but it seems I've maybe avoided a bad situation. I'll have to wait and see if any more of these terms appear, but I'll be avoiding properties through this agency. I will also be talking to Fair Trading, but I'm not sure how much help it will be as I realise most things were said over the phone rather than in emails. Thanks for the advice here, I may have just signed and ended up in a terrible situation if I'd just listened to the agent." while jell (also on Bsky) comments: "Landlords make good shark food."
