Inhuman observer from another world, but feel free to think I'm crazy. It's wonderful camouflage.

Happy to answer questions, but you will probably not like most of the answers.
My little guy was meant to be a little girl's Christmas present, except her aunt kept it a secret and didn't find out until Christmas Day that their lease didn't allow dogs. If not for an unlikely chain of events, he'd have ended up in a shelter or worse.

Because, no one is immune to propaganda; especially not under- or miseducated people who are bombarded by it and only have limited exposure to factual information and an even more limited ability to tell the difference.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead was so underrated.

Whoops, new phone didn't have mandatory alt text on.

This is so well said. History is for all true stories, not just war stories.

Also, T, you might want to make a small edit to the home page; the kind I reckon you've had to do in a lot of places lately.

I have been incredibly fortunate on that score. I take mine to the dog park frequently and I never turn a pettins hungry pup down.

Yeah, never mind that the original gerrymander was also about partisanship.

Aqua Net Extra Super Hold is the only hairspray I will ever buy. However, full disclosure: I do shave my head. These facts are unrelated.

Need any more? I can print at least 900 a week and have over 2k on hand now that the Chicago op is breaking up. I'm happy to send as many as you can turn into kits.

Does anyone know if any orgs on the ground are distributing whistles yet? I was sending them to Chicago, but it looks like the bastids are leaving now that the judges have caught up to them. I'm sitting on around 2k and I'm going to have to pause production if I can't find anywhere to send them.

55% of the vote, so this may be meaningless, but Van Epps is only up by 300 votes!

Taste test update: the dogs think they're delicious. I do not.

The dogs share a birthday because you can't give presents to one and not the other and they're only a week apart, tops. Anyway, this year, I baked pupcakes. Some they can have once they cool and some I'll save until the Grand Feast. I should've made an odd number, but I'm still gonna steal a nibble.
