SFO/PDX would only be one overnight, so you could probably do it in a coach seat. But you won't get a good night's sleep at all, so plan on sleeping it off when you get to your destination.

The Coast Starlight has roomettes in its sleeper car; they sell out so reserve early for a much nicer trip.

Correct! "Reforms" are pointless (and toothless) when ICE defies 100+ court orders and the executive flouts the Constitution with impunity. Laws without enforcement mean nothing. The only solution: defund and dismantle ICE.

I was amused scrolling down this image and seeing the appearance of the pint-size toddler pouting at Mark's feet!

A responsible thought.

I wish posts would include verification from reliable sources. I often hunt down these allegations and they're often true, but I'd rather everyone see the source right upfront so they can investigate the details.

Thanks for the info. Also #blocked

What say you @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social? Anything? Going to just let them lie and kill?

Mom's whole family (her dad and five brothers) and all the ensuing kids and grandkids are Minnesotans. Nicest people you could ever meet - and apparently the toughest!!!

I think we also need a commitment to start some significant government reform to greatly dilute absolute presidential powers, including executive orders and power of the pardon. For now, Chuck and Congress need to step up and quit being so spineless.

PLEASE actually DO IT, Chuck!!! Don't just posture! Congress is our only recourse - make a stand while you still can.

I can do measurements because I've spent years converting 10K race distance into miles and the 1650m swim distance into ft.

And yes I know that -18C is essentially 0F! But I had to look it up!

You have embraced exclusive use of Celsius when describing the freezing temperatures. I need to know how close we are to 0 Fahrenheit. I've flipped to use of metric for measurements and weights, but can't do C degrees yet!!

When I moved here in 2017 (just before his first inaug) I told people I was an American refugee. How prescient that was.

I think Trump's own staff rolled out the red carpet. No one in Davos even noticed his arrival.

Thank you sir. Looks like the "Maga2" list got it.

And the sweetest one. I wish the tradition could still go on. Maybe a single day party on Hans Island with a big buffet table and Greenlandish+Danish fare on one side and Poutine etc. on the other. Float planes transporting guests in. ❤️❤️❤️

I love the Hans Island "dispute" and the trading of whiskey and schnapps while switching whose flag was flying each time. Thus Denmark is the only country other than the US that has a land border with Canada. Glad that Canada is sending troops in defense of Greenland/Denmark sovereignty.
