The Pittsburgh Penguins are signing goalie Marc-Andre Fleury to a professional tryout contract and he'll play in the Sept. 27th preseason game against the Columbus Blue Jackets. And then, presumably, retire as a Pittsburgh Penguin, as the universe intended.

Not me trying to get back into the socials and then *gestures*

Yeah, I'll try to check in over the weekend. Love you all!

James Dobson dying is a staring into the middle distance type of event. You have likely directly suffered bc of him. Few have done more to harm humanity at large in the past few decades. A principal architect of our current nightmare. No redeeming aspect. He was a rat made entirely out of plague.

The last question was how #OpDeathEaters would apply the nine step procedures from How to Dismantle a Dictatorship. #3E

They can be applied as follows:

1. Remove their identity
2. Reject their reality
3. Resist their will
4. Block validation

I keep thinking back to @thelitcritguy.bsky.social’s video essay on folk horror- we may have to become something unrecognizable to ourselves
I’m still optimistic tbh- I think it’s the struggle for a new world to be born so now is the time of monsters

If I have ANY leftover, I try to provide joy for others

But each of us are only one

We cannot fix everything alone

We can do what we can do

AND WE SHOULD ALL OF US DO WHAT WE CAN DO

But after that, we NEED to let go, so we can KEEP GOING

The fact that Dean Cain is one year YOUNGER than Kamala Harris is further proof that supporting hateful MAGA ideology ages you terribly.

again, this fails to take seriously the fact that MAGA fascists are in fact often sincere bigots who want to hurt people.

Budanov confirmed that Ukrainian intelligence operatives cooperate with sex workers and escort models to gather unique information.

“You can’t imagine how much men sometimes reveal just to show how powerful they are, so to speak. And that information gets passed on to the right people."

In 1939, Hitler authorized a euthanasia program for institutionalized disabled people

It required doctors to first identify those who should be euthanized

In 1941, this program became the model for the death camps

A registry of disabled people is, in fact, a 5 alarm fire

One of the great things about these demonstrations is the handmade signs! Individual, witty, pointed. And nobody can say that it's "outside agitators."
Not only did Albuquerque show up for #handsoff, we got to sing happy birthday to 95-year-old Dolores Huerta. #newmexico

Now I’m just a small town country lawyer but it feels as though rather than abandoning our most targeted and marginalized communities to win over 19 bigots, Democrats should run on “we’re going to impeach remove and imprison that demented evil criminal fuck and his pale ratty Nazi billionaire, too”

Today is my birthday (yes, really), and I'm not expecting to get too much of anything. You do that as you get older.

However, I made some cinnamon rolls from scratch and will be eating them all day. We'll order dinner out. I'm spending the day with the puppy and my knitting and quilting.

Woke at 5AM and have been playing with the puppy for hours. I may have tired her out enough to take a nap. Problem: my foot is now a pillow.

Solution: Time to look at knitting patterns or quilt!
