I truly had no idea:
PFC: Pillow Fight Championship | FightPFC.com share.google/CKtWuypBsFtd.... #PillowFightChampionship
In San Diego for a sort-of weekend getaway ( I have a work mtg tomorrow at SDSU but it won't last all day). Getting dinner at a New Zealand themed restaurant and what's playing on the TV is,inexplicably, professional pillow fighting championship.I am now intrigued...
A fireworks display to remember, for sure!
βWe donβt want transgender people.β
Trans genocide is real. What are you doing to fight to protect trans people?
I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.
Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that donβt fit because theyβre scared to take them off.
The 25th is never happening.
Watching the Monks trilogy because.. well, reasons #DoctorWho. Now on "The Lie of the Land" and despite how problematic Bill's treatment is (sigh), it's really gutting at this moment when our information ecosystem is being nuked by AI and RW media. "The Monks have always been here.." indeed.
Over five million people protested against the regime in June.
More than seven million people took to the streets in October.
March 28 will be even bigger, with nearly 3,000 events already on the No Kings Day map. Be part of the largest protest in American history: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...
JFC Turning Point was on my campus today.
This is how we get Cylons...
AMEN.
NPR reporting on this the other morning like it was just some amusing quirk of Trump's rather than another glaring sign of his derangement just sent me.
One thing I've been thinking about a lot this past week+ is what are we all missing as we try to respond to the clusterfuck in Iran, the markets crashing out, etc. So I'm watching #DoctorWho "Pyramid at the End of the World" and trying to think like the Doctor and... damn
They are definitely characters you love to hate. It's all dark farce for sure - the pleasure comes in recognizing the accelerating absurdity of their behavior.
Welp, I've finished my first draft of my first full budget for the bookstore as acting director. It looks.. not bad? Now to wait for the CFO for our auxiliary to shoot holes in it.
When Spice2 and I were in Finland in 2019, everywhere we went, whether in Lapland or Helsinki, Finns asked us what the fuck was going on with our country, and when we said we hated it and were as baffled as they were, they felt sorry for us.
tl:dr β the war has no justification, and has no plan.
Absolute shitshow.
Don't threaten us with a good time...
I mean having to have an actual speakeasy to talk about science and technology is apparently where we bloody are now, and having to dole out scientific discourse like sex work for funding is... well, welcome to higher ed rn.
Watching Red Dwarf "Twentica" because reasons...

Counterpoint: Limiting how US troops can be used illegally in unconstitutional wars of the presidentβs own choosing *IS* supporting βthe troops.β
What are the likely repercussions of us (ugh) striking the desalination plant and the refinery complex?
None of y'all have managed to create enough daylight. I am begging y'all to get your shit together. Consolidate support. Figure something out. Someone talk to someone. This current trajectory is untenable and quite stupid.
If no Democrat advances, we're blaming all of you.
California Democratic gubernatorial candidates:
It's now been four months of nearly every poll showing the two GOP candidates at the top. Not by much but still advancing. The jungle primary is less than three months away.

This is a great thread:
Every single word of this!
Upon reflection, it was a bad idea to put a a sociopathic demented narcissist in charge of the worldβs largest military and then confirm a poser with a small dick complex to run the Pentagon on instructions from a 21st century Goebbles.
Chaos lasagna sounds like me and my siblings trying to do meal planning for a holiday sibling gathering. Much noodling and sauce boiling over, eventually everyone just eats the garlic bread.
