I think it's time The Weather Channel and I part ways. It's supposed to take data from national weather service providers but clearly it's no longer able to manage. I'm looking out the window and I know exactly which one is accurate, and it's the wet one.

I don't know how many times I've had to say this to my kid when coming downstairs for breakfast.... Maybe I'm not getting the accent right?

Once again, headline doesn't match content. Ireland only updated its guidance section re gender on US passport requirements for trans travellers. No warning or concern about travel to the US was issued. Those terms have specific meaning at govt level. www.ireland.ie/en/dfa/overs...

It's frustrating ALL the headlines in the US media are saying Ireland issued a warning. The terms "travel warning" or "travel advisories" have very specific meanings. Ireland just updated its section on US passport requirements for trans travellers. www.ireland.ie/en/dfa/overs...

Again. The headline is misleading because it sounds more dramatic. All Ireland did was update travel *guidance* for trans people travelling to the US. It did not issue any *warnings* or *cautions* about travel to the US. This is literally all they did. www.ireland.ie/en/dfa/overs...

This is it. That's the "warning".

They still list Colin Powell under "Secretaries of State" but removed the reference to him being the first African American to hold 3 highest positions. I did a compare. Others though were removed entirely. Horrible.

Philosophical nugget from my 10 year old:
"Why do you have smiley faces drawn in black marker on your hands?" I asked him when we sat down to dinner this evening. He looked contemplative for a moment before picking up his fork and replying casually "Well.... Let me ask you a question. Why not?"

I also went through and reported every single post for intolerance or misleading information since you can't do that at the account level. But I also saw this and like.... WTF?
