Recovery account for @aubergenius because my backup device popped its clogs.
The rest is still true:
Curmudgeonly Gen X, New Englander, businesswoman, researcher, writer, hunter, Red Sox fan, devotee of the Oxford Comma. Han shot first.
No DMs, please.

Seconded.
Perhaps the USA should invade the USA and oust the dictator. They definitely have WMDs.

There is a special place in Hell for the selfish fucking assholes that bring infants on a redeye flight. Coach is bad enough, but in Business Class? It takes a special kind of sociopathic scumbag to inflict that level of discomfort and auditory abuse on a group of strangers.
Damn these shitbags.

I had already been feeling as though I had lost a member of my family, then I read Twitler's post. Sickening - no other word fits.

I posted a similar thought on a different thread. Twitler's statement is a tacit admission that anti-Trump rhetoric invites violence and he's okay with that.
My first thought when I read the news of the Reiners' murder was that it was Minnesota all over again. That's how plausible MAGA violence is.

The timing of this post and the reference to the murders being "due to the anger ... caused others through … TDS" suggests strongly that Trump believed that **one or more of his supporters** had committed the murders—and that they had committed the atrocity **justifiably**.

A million Muslims live in New York City. We belong here, as does every other New Yorker.
This is vile Islamophobia from the Councilwoman and it has no place in our city.

📜Happy Bill of Rights Day to all of us! President Franklin Roosevelt established this day to commemorate the ratification of the first ten amendments to the US Constitution.
⚖The Bill of Rights spells out the fundamental rights and civil liberties guaranteed to those in the US by our government.

The best part about replaying the MLB Postseason games on MLB TV is the ad breaks are also from October. No Christmas crap!

Have had to hang up after sitting on hold for the IRS for over 90 minutes despite the recorded assurance the wait time was '30 to 60 minutes'. Wait times in excess of an hour and it isn't even April? Where's the 'efficiency', you dirtbag Nazi fucks?

Happily ignoring the climate, both meteorological and political, by replaying Game 1 of the ALWCS between the Red Sox and the Yankees. The Red Sox are leading, and I am content.

Remembering April 1985 stranded in a snowbound MSP, wandering the concourse, drifting gate to gate. At one gate, I met Darryl. He said he'd just got out of jail and was waiting a flight to Duluth. We spent the night wandering and talking until the airport reopened.
Hope it all worked out, Darryl.

Twitler et als is what happens when public service is denigrated and dismissed as an impediment to profits, rather than the living embodiment of civics and bulwark against tyranny it is meant to be.

Quick cartoon. I was hoping to stay unplugged this week but I saw some news and had to take a break to draw this out. I think we all needed to see it realized.
