Almost retired lawyer - Joyce Vance led me here. Looking for an oasis of beauty with a little bit of resistance while gathering strength for what's next.
I finally get it. We lost our beloved tortoise last night after almost 20 years. He was a good boy who trained us well. Damn, this hurts.

This is astonishing and disgusting. Will they also say, "We were just following orders"?
The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

This is our neighbor to the North, as compared to the one who got on TV to boast his building was now taller (it wasn't, of course).

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

Missing Secretary Pete right about now. Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy just delivered one useless word salad, but he did compliment his boss twice. Of course he also complimented the DC mayor so his boss won't be happy.

I need someone to explain to me why it’s always “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes and avocado toasts” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts and real estate”.
Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.
