The Long Dark Teatime of the Soul
Ok, everyone, what book is sacred enough to you to get sworn in on?
Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

And please, PLEASE let us not forget that time in 2023 when Karen Smith was elected President of the school board in Bucks County, Pa and swore her oath on a stack of banned books. The most gangsta oath ever! Just brilliant. www.edweek.org/leadership/t...

The amount of fires at 12:05 on edges of parkland is significant this year. I guess consequences of boxes of illegal fireworks during fire season in summer is just too intellectual for some people

Not something to worry about here, but I love the earthquake advice for walker and wheelchair users
Remember, if you feel earthquake, shaking or receive an earthquake alert, drop down to the ground take cover underneath the sturdy object and hold on until all the shaking has stopped. Don’t be scared be prepared! www.shakeout.org/dropcoverhol...

I'm spending New Year's Eve with my 95-year-old Mum. We had all sorts of plans - we were going to make a time capsule, dress up and take photos, and even make a quiz! But now we're both sipping a wine, watching the telly, and thinking nah, can't be arsed. Happy New Year! #NYE2026

NSW Premier Chris Minns said police would "throw the book" at anyone behind flyers distributed to inner-city Newcastle letterboxes.

Reports from inside Russia make it clear that there was no Ukrainian drone attack on Putin's compound. The compound is protected by SAMs, anti-aircraft guns, and fighter jets, none of which deployed. No person in the region heard or saw any evidence of an attack.
Putin lied; Trump believed him.

Quite the thread. Misinformation and spitefulness knows no bounds
And actually--Comet Pizza was a page out of a playbook that started with daycare decades before.
In 1983, a California mom accused her son's childcare provider of subjecting children to Satanic rituals--like flushing them down toilets into secret basements where they were then filmed for porn. 1/🧵

Trump guys are about to Comet Pizza every third daycare center because they think they are all fronts for Somali money laundering. They're only doing this near cities with progressive mayors. This is straight up Government by LibsOfTikTok.
