ScopesTownBoos 👻 @scopestownlib.bsky.social · Nov 15

I'm a retiree in TN w/a wicked/absurd sense of humor. I acquired & displayed memorabilia for Hard Rock Cafe in the 90s. I love trivia & know a little about a lot of things.

I'm good at aggregating info & problem solving. Smart, empathetic ppl are my tribe. I'm occasionally snarky.

I follow back.

My internet (NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube) went out at the 2 minute warning. Agonizing.

On Friday I proposed to @ohcatrina.bsky.social, and she said yes!! We are #engaged. I'm so excited to spend the rest of my life with someone who constantly inspires me, encourages me, entices me, and makes me laugh. We've had so many adventures so far and I know even greater ones are in store! 🧵

Good news: The GOP is in disarray over healthcare costs. The public is more concerned about rising health insurance costs than they are about the shut down. NO PAYWALL.

Don’t let the frogwater that’s boiling us alive let you skip over this: we murdered another country’s citizens in cold blood, and when their leader objected, we called him a drug dealer and cut off aid to his country. That’s freakish.

Petro objected to the US bombing a Columbian fishing vessel that had the emergency beacon on because they were broken down, that we subsequently bombed. One Columbian fisherman survived the attack.

This is the official US response to Petro's comments.
