I saw $4.50 at the local cheap gas station today, I'm literally one price hike from printing stickers that say "I did that!" with Trump's face on them

I may yet live to be this important, my town is having an insanely competitive runoff for 2 seats on city council in May

(hey at least I'm traveling on an Airbus plane, thanks [airline I'm traveling on])

probably going to listen to this on a plane tomorrow b/c I'm Built Different

THERE WILL BE NO FURTHER DISCUSSION, TOUCH GRASS

"and the people were astonished at her doctrine"

Tempe and Tucson in 10 years

at a reasonable rate too? much respect to them, that's pretty rare in the states

my goodness 10gigs! that's fast. the monopoly cable company in my area doesn't offer that (there's fiber internet competition in the suburbs, including the one I live in, but almost any apartment complex isn't hooked to it)

we really need a Shameless of the 2020s

big update on yesterday’s fundraising.

“An injury to one is an injury to all”

you, Bluesky, made this possible 🏳️‍⚧️🌹✊

to my coastal friends, I know this almost sounds like paradise, but recall that I live in a (relatively) low wage state with a slightly across the board higher cost of living than you'd expect

some friends and I were looking at condo/townhome sale prices on Zillow in my town for shits and giggles the other day and you know you have a great housing market when you're finding older one bedroom condos going for 300k

agreed on both, y'all actually did "any investment into education at all" unlike AZ, which is somehow managing to find new ways to make public ed starve to death and still keep winning the legislature

also might I point out that you'd have to be batshit insane to move from Arizona to Texas "for the taxes, man you already live in an actually real low tax hell!

I was warning a coworker who saying he was interested in Texas for the "low taxes" about this but if he wants him, his wife and children to suffer through that, there's nothing I can do to stop them

marine mammals are some of the most sociopathic creatures out there, proof that intelligence doesn't make a creature better behaved, but rather closer to the opposite

that's right

this is not official doctrine of any religious group, including my own, but the logic is sound to me

if all dogs are in heaven, I assure you all dolphins are in hell

you're right and they're cowards

I've already been telling my family outside the country to not bother coming in, it's a real bad time to be anywhere near the jaws of the immigration jackboots

6 months later: they haven't yet, what's going on here?

friendly reminder that "no soliciting" does not apply to political canvassers! get a "no politics" sign if you really never want to hear one again

nothing is worth a damn without solidarity, for what use is my triumph if my sisters dwell in destitution

we need the return of feminism

I missed the news, lovely to see it. first step of many and I hope we have a reasonable majority in the legislature when the time comes for real cash to be put down

Queens was a mess of different cities, Brooklyn consolidated into a more or less city-county deal earlier

I presume that's a legacy of NYC absorbing a lot of the neighboring towns?
