No, I am not worried about 'declining' birth rates, I accept them as post-modern birth rates, the birth rates that naturally happen once the conditions are set that children can be expected to survive to adulthood reliably and that women are allowed to be educated and become full citizens.
The only single thing the release of Epstein files did is show the world that the globe is run by sociopaths that are never held accountable. Well, I guess itโs something.
Ugh.

I love how they each go to their hiding spots.
Mr. @thaiguy.bsky.social sending treatos the boysโ way along with a blankie!
Bacon bone-bones a hit with the boys, LOL.

Actually hilarious to get caught trying to lie this bad, hope whatever Target slid their way was worth it

goddamn is this a breath of fresh air after Allred 2024
we are in the situation we are in because a critical mass of american voters think republicans broadly and trump specifically are good for the economy. my modest proposal is that we do not spend tax revenue on bolstering their conviction on that account
i can understand feeling compelled to vote for it if republicans bring it up but why would we proactively prevent people from understanding the consequences of republican governance
NEWS: Democrat Shawn Harris has forced a runoff in the special election for Marjorie Taylor Greeneโs deep-red Georgia seat (Trump +37).
With ~70% in, Harris leads with 38.3% to Trump-endorsed Republican Clay Fullerโs 34.5%.
Runoff set for April 7. A major warning sign for MAGA.
Iโve been watching him do this for about a minute, somehow silences the world.
This is Summit. He is a friend to pretty much everyone he meets. But has a special soft spot for the little critters who stop long enough for him to say hello. 13/10 (IG: bakerbarnes)
Thank you!

Whatโs left is top to bottom paint on the tiny TV/window wall and paint on the bottom of the 3 larger walls, then the 3-4โ piece (Iโm thinking aluminum flat stock) that will marry it all together. ๐ช
WFH advantage: I can walk 1 minute away on my lunch hour and resume a project I started on Sunday.
New in PN: The worst cabinet in history
"Even having one or two cabinet members as disastrous as Noem, Hegseth, Kennedy, or Bondi would be a stain on any administration; putting them all in one govt has created a kind of Bizarro World 1927 Yankees, an all-star team of incompetence and malevolence."
what if we did not do government by hourly news cycle. it is just an idea i had
I mean, why have foreign policy at all?
We should just kill who we want when we want
This is one of his most terrifyingly stupid performances ever, this oneโs a Hall of Famer
Still gobsmacked in random moments that the dumbest fucking human alive is in control of seemingly everything.
*I donโt need a primer, I know how we got here, Iโm saying that even knowing thatโฆ
I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.
TheCybersmith @thecybersmith.bsk... โข 1d โข Joined May '23 Birth of a Nation is a misunderstood film, IMO, depiction is not endorsement, and DW Griffith's contributions to cinematography shouldn't be overshadowed by the fact that some people decided to interpret his film as supporting controversial political agendas.

You can go a week or more with your brushes and rollers wrapped (say you start on a Saturday/Sunday but work all week and canโt get to the 2nd coat until the following weekend), just make sure you push all of that air out of your bag when youโre wrapping up your space, it will be totally fine. ๐
