😮 Shocker! Unless Putin decides to move his home to a nearby oil refinery, it would have seemed more plausible.

@realduffmckagan.bsky.social Was that Duff on the ferry from Gibsons this morning? If not, it was his tall, dog-walking doppelgänger! Hey, man!

Zelenskyy calls Russia’s claim of a strike on one of Putin’s residences a “complete fabrication,” a lie designed to sabotage diplomacy, justify more attacks on Kyiv, and excuse Moscow’s refusal to end the war. He warns the world must not stay silent as Russia tries to derail peace.

Tommy Wiseau's The Room was a scream!
I could never have a letterboxd because I have never had a bad experience watching a movie. I could see the worst film possible and have the best time simply because I just saw another movie.

Look at the Senate and Congress with over half of both over 65, more in their 70s and 80s. They're coasting on govt money already.
Ben is basically a libertarian and I can’t agree that retirement itself is stupid.

But he’s right that 65 is too young to get social security. We can’t afford it anymore.

Medicare though needs a different solution. Raising the retirement age won’t fix why it’s expensive.

Putin is playing Liar’s Poker as in Michel Collin’s book, still imagining Russia is a superpower. Why destroy one’s own country to satisfy his ego?
“Putin doesn’t want peace.” After another night of terror in Kyiv, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy called out Russia’s lies, while Canada stepped up, announcing billions in economic and military support to defend Ukraine and build a just, lasting peace.

When Musk pledged 6B to the WFP in Oct 2021 to help end world hunger and donated to his own foundation instead, yeah, that’s beyond shameful.
I say his gently, but…

There’s something unspeakably shameful The United States letting people go hungry.

Not because its government doesn’t fix it —

but because tomorrow a few private Americans could, and never notice the cost.

That’s the part that sits wrong.

This is sending love and support to all the women - grandmas, aunties, moms - who go shop for all the food, goodies, gifts, go home, decorate, clean, bake, prepare, peel, knead, cook, stuff, roast, boil, mash, baste, whip, stir, set the table, serve, eat, clean up, while menfolk stuff themselves.

How can you have a real discussion on a site that has nothing but Bots and malcontents?

Twitter X is a cesspool.
