I recognized the pastel de nata. Hoping to be in Portugal in May!

A friend bought a house in St. Paul knowing it needed work, and brought in a plumber, not knowing the plumber was a retired St. Paul inspector. The "plumber" took and sent photos to the housing inspector's office, who immediately issued citations. Planned project became a very expensive scramble.

Hey, everybody it was just an innocent mistake!

They didn't say, "We need the Second Amendment so that we have guns to RESIST tyranny," they said "assist."

ASSIST.

Anybody could make that mistake.

Is there a place to invest in Nuremberg trial futures?

♬Don't stop talkin' about the filesβ™ͺ
Don't stop saying what he fears
What he fears is Epstein from before
So much that he started a war.

Ooh don't you look away.

Why not think about trials to come
When we reveal the things that he's done
If the terrible things are true
Life in prison won't even do

I don't disagree that there is deep complicity from the media. I just have no idea what to do about any of it. I've been saying for years and years that if nobody's getting fired then they're doing their job, it's just that their job isn't what you think it is. No idea how to change that though.

I don't even know how we assess moral culpability anymore in a nation that elected a convicted felon and sex offender, and sits by while the executive office is used for blatant corruption, and a compromised SCOTUS blesses everything. Our culture has become a toilet that desperately needs flushing.

Thank you. They've been sanewashing β–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆ for over ten years, and people just keep shrugging "Why aren't journalists asking tougher questions?"

If someone doesn't do their job they get fired. If they're not fired then they're doing their job. But maybe their job is sanewashing β–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆ, not journalism

I remember staggering around in November of '24 because I immediately saw all this coming. This sucks.

Schumer: Clearly this is a problem and we intend to oppose it strongly.

Jeffries: While some darkness is normal, eternal darkness will cause trouble.

Klobuchar: I stand with the people of Minnesota who strongly oppose darkness.

Booker: I don't agree with this darkness-first policy.

All vote YES.

My username is 50 years old this September, based as it is on a Monty Python sketch. However that doesn't mean I'm right and someone else is wrong.

Thanks. Sorry for the rant, I'm about at my limit these days and it doesn't take much to tip me over the edge...

I call it "Star Trek 90210" although since the academy is in San Francisco I suppose it should be "Star Trek 94110."

I got pictures of two of the three. Baker was at night after he appeared in a play and I didn't have a camera.

WTF even IS "autopen"? Is this just some bullshit notion that the Right created, and media organizations just use the word without challenge? I swear, I'm so tired of being subjected to projection fantasies of the Right while real people are getting killed and disappeared.
