Just gonna pin this for the next four years
Getting lots of new "followers" all with the same first post, several reposts, no posts of their own, and the accounts are only about 24 hours old.
Clearly these are all bullshit but what does one report?
How can you stop them?

yelling that Trump is doing something "against the law" is meaningless if there are no consequences

Winter Solstice Sit + Talk on “Eko Hensho” by Roshi Joan — Dec. 21st (in person + online) at 5:30 p.m. (MST)
There is an important term in the Japanese Zen tradition, “eko hensho,” meaning to return the light of awareness to the boundless mind itself.

Sentiment shifted hard in a month!
We're not spending as much as we typically do and we're being more deliberate in our spending. We're financially good this year but we're not going to give our money to big box corps and there's enough uncertainty that we're being frugal just in case next year sux
Holy crap chart from Gallup

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future."

- @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit.

Incredible words.
Listen to all of it!

I'd like for a reporter to ask ANYONE in the administration WTAF is the moron talking about
I will repeat my offer to make a contribution to a mutually acceptable charity in the name of the reporter who asks Trump how you get drug prices down 600%

bsky.app/profile/atru...
LOLLL Trump claims he’s cutting drug prices by 600 percent, which is not possible

If my math is mathing that's about $2.6 Billion. This sounds like some seriously demented confabulation
In a nationwide address that major US TV networks are carrying live, President Trump announces 1,450,000 military members will receive a "warrior dividend" of $1776 before Christmas.

So an hour-ish of him telling us how stupid we are for not seeing the amazing job he's doing and the economy is the best ever. Quit your bitchin'
Maybe he’s planning on narrating the Epstein files.

The finish probably needs another day or so to fully cure because the garage has been a bit cool. Christmas gifts for the family. And since they're not on here I can post pics!

Sanded to 220. Then first coat of finish. Clear gloss. 2 coats should do it. Don't want it too glossy. Still want it to feel like you're touching wood grain. All made from a Bradford pear that we had cut after it split last year.

@philinvestigates.com has a goal of 100k followers by the end of the year. He's only about 75 away!
He is singular in Tennessee, and there aren't many like him anywhere else. If you're not following, you oughta.

Way to show some spine Indiana!
Indiana’s Senate has voted AGAINST the GOP gerrymander that’d have locked in a 9-0 map.

This keeps the 7-2 map in place, saving two Democratic seats heading into 2026.

The vote failed big, 19/31.

The MAJORITY of the GOP senators opposed it!
