My husband pointed out some interesting things about Adolph Hitler:

He served his country during wartime

Seeing he was defeated, he killed himself

Though twisted af, he cared about his country and not just himself.

He possessed artistic talent.

He was vegetarian.

Am I the only American who rolls her eyes whenever she sees the LiMu emu? I mean, nice try, but it’s no GEIKO gekko (or even Flo) and never will be.

This kills me—every single time:

“…We who have come back [from concentration camps], by the aid of many lucky chances or miracles - whatever one may choose to call them - we know: the best of us did not return.”

I just had the disquieting realization that I say “jeepers” unironically.

Shockingly (perhaps), not the only kidney effort I’m backing. This man needs immediate help getting to clinical trials; just needs a lot of us to put in what we can. TY:

Thank you, @bmcarthur17.bsky.social I just noticed he was missing and emailed BlueSky support. Inviting others to do the same.
I'm sure many of you have realized Andy Behrman's Bluesky account (@electroboyusa.bsky.social) has been suspended.

Please email [email protected] and ask them to reinstate his account immediately.

Andy has ALWAYS acted with the utmost integrity and honesty on this platform.

Friends, I really need your help.
Most people are very weary of crowdfunding, GoFundMe campaigns as you're not certain where the money is going or if it's a scam. But I assure you and can provide medical proof that my situation is not a scam, it is real and it is dire.

Sh*t my husband says:

“We’ve become old crones.”

Well, bucko, aging’s changed you more than me.
