Mildly, and I'll take that for now.

Man I wish I was on the sandwich guy's jury!

The DC Sandwich Thrower''s trial started today.

His lawyers say it's retaliation since the CBP agent hit with the sandwich was not injured.

The federal agent who shot Rev. David Black with a pepper ball at point-blank range faces zero charges.

A sandwich gets more accountability than a cop.

While I agree, on the bright side, this (for her) major flip flop to me means she thinks a) the tides are turning in a big way and b) that she thinks there will be at least mostly fair elections. I'll take that little spot of hope these days. Still hate and distrust her though.

Really hoping to see good news from around the country tomorrow. I'll be going to vote after work in my small town election. I'll be voting for my school district bonds even though my last child is in her last year because I'm not an ass and won't pull the ladder up behind her.

You still can in my town, time and temp. Still remember the number and I just called to double check, yep still works!

It may be better now but it's still have to, not had to, unfortunately.

What time is the rapture today? Same amount of traffic when I came into work this morning so it looks like we're all still here.

The one good thing about this “run America like a business” nightmare is that more people are beginning to realize how corrupt and craven many businesses truly are.

Take notes.

Never forget how they abandoned us.

Don’t forgive their complicity.

My daughter's tuition this semester was a whopping $39 because of a book she put on her account!

Fuck Disney for kowtowing to the orange buffoon!

I guess it didn't matter. Got into Disney on my phone and it says it's already cancelled since I cancelled Hulu! I swear I was paying for both separate...I'm going to have to look at my statements.

Well I have cancelled Hulu. Tried cancelling Disney but they were supposed to send me a code and I can't do that but I will keep trying until I can get through to them!

Astrid @astridjustme.bsky.social · Sep 18

Zuck and fuck straight off. I will NOT ever buy these.

When my dad passed my mom and I were sitting outside talking about cardinals (never seen one) so I said I was going to go with a blue bird (we don't see them too often here but some). A couple days later a blue bird was in her tree just watching for quite some time.

Fuck even the thought of having Kirk lay in the rotunda, who was he? A freaking nobody! He wasn't an elected person or even an appointed one. Freaking selective outrage idiots. And release the damn files already.

I work in the construction industry and I will say, my guys are saying the same thing "OMG so much work is coming, how are we going to man it? We're going to need 100s more!" but I've heard that many times before and have learned not to hold my breath waiting.

There are violent extremists on the left but they are not in charge of the party. You can find them on social media, not in the halls of power.

The violent extremists on the right are in congress, on courts, and sitting in the Oval Office.

So...they said we are little snowflakes, afraid of our own shadows and the big bad guns but all the sudden we are now expert marksmen so highly trained we took a dude out from 200 yards with one shot and hurt no one else? How does that work?

Astrid @astridjustme.bsky.social · Sep 3

Like you you effing piece of trash?? Must be looking in a mirror as he says that.

Astrid @astridjustme.bsky.social · Sep 2

Looks delicious! Did you make it? And if so, care to share the recipe?

Astrid @astridjustme.bsky.social · Aug 30

God damnit.

Long weekend means time to clean, do yard work and still have time to make potato leek soup, cheese stuffed pretzels, shawarma, pita and toum.

I'd say that's a pretty conservative number, bet it's more than half.

Even homeschooling isn't safe unless you never ever take them anywhere like the grocery store or mall or movie theatre...
