I don't know if I'm getting rid of my account on the other platform yet, but I figured I'd give this a try.
About me? Born, raised, and live in Pittsburgh, with 20 year in Louisiana and AZ in the mix, too. Love the Pirate (sigh), the Penguins, and Utah HC. Genetically compelled to follow Steelers

Ooof. if he is going to try to cover up his pallor with makeup, he needs a better makeup artist. This is just awful.
Trump last night had the complexion of a Thanksgiving turkey that was left in the oven too long and bandages were again visible on the back of his right hand

So much of DS9, especially the Dukat storyline, presaged Trump. It's uncanny, really.
(Full disclosure: DS9 is my absolute most favorite Trek. The characters were complex, the storylines were ambiguous, and there was a whole lotta gray area.)

The most realistic scene in DS9 is when Gul Dukat whined about how the Bajorans never erected a statue in his honor. A prophetic text.

Dave, you carpet bagger...this message isn't going to work with your constituents, who aren't dumb.
BARTIROMO: What are you expecting the president's economic message to be?
SEN. McCORMICK: I think the message is that we inherited a trainwreck from the Biden administration and we made a lot of progress

This story should be leading every newscast on every network. These folks who did things "the right way" and passed their citizenship test are being denied naturalization.

Sen. Bill Cassidy, a liver specialist has spoke against this. Just one problem...he voted to confirm RFK Jr., claiming he was giving him the benefit of the doubt. He sold out his Hippocratic oath for faux loyalty to a president he knows is a raving loon.
There is blood on the hands of Donald Trump, RFK, and every Republican who has allowed this sham to go on for far too long. When kids die unnecessarily and once-eradicated diseases darken the doors of terrified families and pediatricians, Americans will know who is responsible.
Breaking: After contentious debates and three failed attempts at a vote, a federal vaccine committee decided on Friday to end the decades-long recommendation that all newborns be immunized at birth against hepatitis B.

This is so damnably petty and stupid.

When the Pens were at their absolute best, Geno would take over when Sid had a bad game or one one of his little slumps. We're totally seeing that right now.

If that was from an IV, he shouldn't still have a bandage. I'm guessing it's an ulcer of some kind.

This guy is an economist, and here he is trying to compare a percentage to an actual number.
Inflation is 2.9% If I make $60K, $1200 is only 2% of that. Therefore, inflation is outpacing my wage growth.

Your grocery bills and expenses are lying to you, folks. Hassett will send you an email.
FOX: The numbers that we looked at show that inflation is still higher than wage growth
HASSETT: No. Wage growth is higher than inflation now. I'll send you an email
FOX: Inflation is at 2.9%
HASSETT: Real wage growth is $1,200 over the year. I'll show it to you

I'm GenX. Right smack in the middle. I have no desire to see the return of station waggons.
I’m losing it. They know that Gen X is the only demo they have any footing with and so they are going all in on the nostalgia slop for them.
Sean Duffy on slashing fuel economy standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s station wagon. Maybe a little wood paneling on the side. We can bring back choice to consumers."

Does anyone want to bring back the 70s station wagons?

This is true in pretty much every sci fi show built around a naval construct. Just finished re-watching "The Orville," and it's 100% true there.
I’m glad that all of America is learning one of the main lessons of Star Trek: The Next Generation - nothing good happens when an Admiral shows up

According to a study published in JAMA, in the nine year period between 2015 and 2024, there were just over 800,000 drug overdose deaths total. Not millions, and certainly not millions per year.

Peace in the Middle East! Except for the random bombs going off and hurting and killing some people.
Trump on Gaza: "They had a problem today with a bomb that went off. Hurt some people pretty badly, probably killed some people. Just happened. But we have peace in the Middle East. People don't realize it."

I have quite a few friends in Minnesota. It is not a hellhole. And if you asked them, most would tell you the Somali residents have been a net positive for their community. They certainly were in Glendale, AZ, where there is another significant population.
Trump goes on another racist rant about Somalis: "Ilhan Omar should be thrown the hell out of our country, and most of those people -- they have destroyed Minnesota. It's a hellhole right now. Those Somalians should be out of here. They have destroyed out country ... go back to your own country."
