🫂🌿 yuuuuuuup. And sometimes we force ourselves to keep putting air in our lungs cause... lort knows we don't want to.

But what if...what if...what if. What if tomorrow...

Tiniest ebb of hope against the tsunami; maybe it can be enough. Hopefully it can be enough. Counting the min til tomorrow.

Sounds like we were in a pretty similar 🧠 place last night.

Idk if you want it, but my mantra through is, "The only way I would *guarantee* that it never gets better is if I am not here to find out if it does."

Idk if it'll ever be worth it, but I'll only find out if I continue experiencing 💜

Something about people throwing and hitting balls in some sort of way that's, evidently, causing quite a ruckus.

That's a great question! I'm no legal scholar, so I don't know any of the nuance as to what NATO considers "an attack."

Though if NATO does consider tariffs an attack, perhaps Article 5 inherently approved countries that responded with their own tariffs.

But that's just a guess, & I agree with you

SoulKit @soulkit.bsky.social · 4d

If he does, NATO Article 5 states:

"An armed attack against one or more [NATO countries] in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all"

And permits the use of force to defend the attacked country/ies & to maintain North Atlantic security.

I'm so with you. Those barriers were a STRUGGLE when I was first researching mechanical keyboards.

Agreed - onus is on the speaker to communicate effectively with their audience.

If it's too difficult to understand someone's message, it will not be received.

SoulKit @soulkit.bsky.social · 4d

Yes! That's exactly how acronyms are supposed to be used publicly.

Explain the context once and use the shorthand afterwards.

So many acronym sequences are reused in a multitude of ways, making it needlessly difficult to look up what they mean.

SoulKit @soulkit.bsky.social · 4d

Of course - using very well-known acronyms or using acronyms within their in-group makes sense, especially on platforms with a significant character limit.

Those are not the circumstances I'm referring to above.

SoulKit @soulkit.bsky.social · 4d

It's so frustrating when people use industry or in-group shorthand *outside* of those industries or in-groups.

Even if unintended - it either excludes the very people they're trying to communicate with OR it presents as trying to prove how much they (don't) know by hiding behind acronyms.

The stat is written in a confusing way.

It really means: 99% of detainees have 0 felonies

Ex: if someone has 1 felony, they "only" have 33 *fewer* felonies than Trump, and thus are not among the 99% who hit the max of 34 fewer felonies.

Ironically, the ground underneath the East Wing (afaik) holds an underground emergency shelter.

The demolition may have been a ruse for T to expand the bunker, because he knows he may need it for what he's planning during the next supposed transition of power...

One of the most life-affirming and heartwarming sights on the planet!

Attack / Defense? No, no, no. Just *three*! 😂

And like - so might USA beef...and other USA meats...and USA vegetables what with T dismantling, reorganizing, laying off, and closing offices at the USDA.

Ahhh...what a time to be alive 😭

Ahhh, this is why USAmerican society is so cooked.

The people can't make the logical 1 inch step to realize that POTATO chips are made out of potatoes.
