Might have to go protest in my Crew gear and then walk over 🤔

The home Crew game next Saturday (6 pm) is perfectly timed with the downtown No Kings protest (4-5:30 pm).

I think the main issue is demanding all staff do this and send it to her. I'd be a little more lenient if she leaned on her direct reports to aggregate this kind of information for her. I would be weirded out if my own CEO sent this to the whole company.

Does this count as a milkshake duck incident?

How can someone who conducts war against half his population on the flimsiest of pretexts hope to win a Nobel Peace prize I wonder?

My company just warned of at least a 20% hike for a corporate Anthem plan.

I'm not a huge fan of infant circumcision, but this is insane.

Sometimes he tells the truth.

I honestly think this kind of mockery is effective. Dancing, costumes, music - all of it shows how ridiculous their level of force is.

I keep thinking my kids are out with no money (no wallet) and then they remind me that they use Apple Pay.

I have got to start using my phone to pay for things like the youngsters do.

This reminds me of the time an acquaintance told me Trump is a feminist because he hired Carolyn Kepcher to run his golf courses and had her on The Apprentice.

No wonder I saw a dad at a soccer game tonight wearing a Dolly shirt.

He wants a war.

We all agree these are the same people, right? The government deputized white supremacist militia dudes to invade cities and terrorize brown people "legally."

Going back to that raid on the South Shore apartment building. It hasn't gotten much focus that the goons reportedly traveled the same way Patriot Front does: in UHauls.

A Budget truck with about five armed men seen inside. It's dark out and the taillights are lit. The photo is attributed to KT O'Loughin.

I run, but sometimes I feel enraged about things as I am running. I try to listen to books or podcasts to keep my attention.

Katie @ohweebeasties.bsky.social · 4d

I feel like it peaked for me around 2016-2018. I used to post on FB and IG back then.

What do you do with the absolutely boiling rage under your surface?

Somehow I missed him as well. So weird because I use this site a lot.

Insanity! This is one of the most beautiful and popular areas in the state for tourism.

UDHCMH @udhcmh.bsky.social · 4d

Another abomination from Team Abomination. Makes no economic sense. Hocking Hills alone does a half-billion a year in tourism. No reason for it except infantile assholes trying to act like some idea of he-men.

If people were serious about decreasing crime, this would be more effective than deploying troops.

All my life, the 2A guys said they needed guns in case the government did things like this. Now the 2A guys cheer it or participate in it.

Middle aged complaint: I just burned a pan of brownies because I misread the temperature on the box because it's in like 6 point font.

Another grocery trip where two big cloth bags of food cost me $251 (includes one bottle of Bailey's).
