Christian pop and rock.
No. I'm definitely not just projecting my own opinion on mountain lions. I swear.

Every last one of them looks like one of those youth pastors you'd never want to leave a kid alone with.

The funny part is, the media has actually really tried to provide positive coverage to the administration's war on Iran. It's just so disastrous that it's pretty much impossible to do so without being undisguised state propaganda.

It's a good thing we have the party of free speech in power. It's a good thing the corporate media knew who the real enemies of freedom were. College students who go to protests and LGBTQ people and allies who criticize JK Rowling.

Winter storm warning just got upped to a blizzard warning. I did grocery shopping today, so I don't have to leave the house for a couple of days, but I do worry about a power outage. Xcel energy does a good job keeping the power on when it's cold. Wind, that's a different story.

I'm not watching the #FrightClub movie*, but just opened Bluesky and all your out of context comments are delightful.

*don't envy me I'm watching a different movie that sucks

To be clear, even if he looked like an underwear model, it wouldn't be okay to call the bodies of trans kids "mutilated" I'm just saying a lot of people who say gross, insulting things about other's bodies are often people who really have no room to talk.

I don't think you should be commenting on anyone else's bodies if you show up in public looking like a grocery store rotisserie chicken that no one bought.

I'm still annoyed about that terrible War of the Worlds screen life remake. I love found footage horror and I love alien movies. Do you know how badly you have to screw up to get me to hate a movie that's both.

I think I'm going to watch only one NCAA gymnastics meet today. One of the early ones. And a non SEC one. But I don't know which one. The quad with Maryland? WV vs. NC State?

10-16 inches of snow are expected here between Saturday afternoon and Monday morning.

Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:

Denial of quarterβ€”even the declaration of no quarterβ€”is a war crime.

And recognized as such by the US Government.

From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.

We could have a lot fewer toxic conservative influencers in the world if we just convinced them that gravity was made up by the woke socialist left to restrict our freedom to jump off of tall buildings.

It's bipartisan, yet it's only a problem for liberals that they failed to anticipate that the proliferation of online gambling would be a problem.
For some reason weed is lumped in even though legalizing that has caused no problems. But that's the liberal position. Therefore, it must be a problem.

Not a lot of things really surprise me anymore, but I've got to admit, the liberal side getting conspiracy theories in the national divorce is not something I anticipated.

People make assumptions about whether or not that's true based on their personal feelings about the politician and their positions though.
A huge party with thousands and thousands of people and multiple organizations is not going to be monotholic.

I know it seems like a minor semantic thing, but I actually think trying to seem cool and above it all online prevents us from discussing elections and political issues productively.
I don't even think people (including me) always know they're even doing it. It's like a reflex. An unhelpful one.

Seriously guys, if someone holds elected office, they are the establishment. No matter their politics. If someone is running for office, they are attempting to become part of the establishment. I know people think they sound cool, acting anti-establishment. Sorry. You're just a politics nerd.

Setting aside my dislike of how the word "establishment" has become a term for "any politician disagree with about anything or whose vibes I don't like" people in Minneapolis have known this for awhile. Ilhan Omar's constant primary challenges are 100$ not organic.

And that's all for tonight. Until next week. In the meantime, Netflix, please don't send me another email asking me to finish Castle Rock. I will. Eventually.

When we ordered pizza, my mom would divide the one for my brother and ahead of time. We each got our share and that was that. No conflicts. Same for other desirable foods like cake.

This is embarrassing. I know nothing about military strategy and have no experience in the military and I could have predicted that outcome.
