Oh, Andy feels bad! I'll buy him a nice milkshake, that'll cheer him up.

"recissions" and "clawbacks" are politically correct terms for the GOP reneging on past agreements.

Mike Johnson telling reporters that he expected to enact more “rescissions” in the coming days. Rescission is the process of canceling funds that Congress has already appropriated

Ah! Michaelmas was an annual autumn holiday in Europe - where people feasted on goose, special bread/cake and berries. Sounds very familiar. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael...

"The (Plymouth) event occurred between Sept. 21 and Nov. 11, 1621, with the most likely time being around Michaelmas (Sept. 29), the traditional time." Seems there were a bunch of other Thanksgivings, dating back as much as 60 years. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thanksg...

BTW, I'm a year and a half out from a 9 day visit to the ICU, and have totally wrecked myself on a bicycle before. Best of luck to your bro!

I'm an Oregonian, from what I hear New England states often have snow by November. It never made sense to have a (yes) harvest festival when it's snowing.

Printers are tools of the devil! Every last one.

Oh, you're Canadian? Was wondering why you were worried about Thanksgiving this early. 🥴

Is there an actual link to a news article? Google and Duck only find social media posts.

First instance of #childishGrotesque? Woot!

MumblyJoe Bizarro @mumblyjoe.bsky.social · 13h

My first shot at a #childishGrotesque. Try it, it's fun!

Got the idea from a YouTube by Drew www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcOQ...

"Hapy Halloween!" done as a childish grotesque. Yeah, misspelling was meant to be childish, I'm sticking with that story.

Was once called a "Linux bigot" by a CIO. Actually, I had just told him the task was better suited to a DBMS than a spreadsheet. Nothing to do with superior operating systems. 😉

MumblyJoe Bizarro @mumblyjoe.bsky.social · 1d

What? No. The word processor was called nroff. 🤓

So, I'm creating a budget spreadsheet. Figuring out how to do tables and fancy formulas. I'm becoming everything I hate.

Oops, Hatch Act.

MumblyJoe Bizarro @mumblyjoe.bsky.social · 1d

PDX is refusing to play Kristi Noem's blame-the-Democrats video, citing the Hatch amendment. Sadly Trump ignores Hatch every chance they get.
