awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Yeah, but Matt Gaetz calling you smart really isn't the ringing endorsement one might think. 000
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Not just a rep. He is on the ticket with the likely R gubernatorial candidate from FL. 001
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Why are they content creators in their current positions, anyway? I don't want them making workout videos and cooking shows. I get that they don't know how to do their jobs, but try to learn, FFS. 010
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 23/07/2026My husband is a plumber. I have three degrees. He makes more than I do. I am happy for him and bemoan the lack of trade education in our state. The issue is absolutely age. Let the kids grow and make their choices. Don't track them. It will biased based on race, gender, and income. 2140
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Many people are saying she should be the Secretary of Defense. I'm just saying what I am hearing. It's not coming from me. It's just a thing that people are saying. Of course, Pete's doing a great job, but who knows? If we need someone else, I hear she would be great. And she loves me! 100
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 28/05/2026Isn't this interfering with free enterprise? 000
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 15/05/2026So many things come back to our loss of respect for expertise and the belief that anyone with opinions can do a job. 030
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 12/05/2026The quote about triggering trauma. It must be so hard for them. 0100
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 10/05/2026It's perfectly symbolic. Nothing is real. Everything is an illusion. Everything has a coat of gilding or paint or makeup to cover up the rot. Don't look over there. Look over here. Isn't this pretty? 010
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 07/05/2026I believe this is where this meme ends. This is the pinnacle. 020
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 05/05/2026Meanwhile, in Florida: www.wfla.com/news/florida...wfla.comFlorida education officials release alternative to AP U.S. History courseFlorida education officials on Monday released the framework for a history course touted as an alternative to Advanced Placement (AP) courses. 010
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 23/04/2026I found this interesting and it made me think about the cognitive dissonance that allows people to worship other figures, let's say, even political ones, and refuse to accept their misdeeds. This phenomenon is not limited to the worship of one individual. Great listen, BTW. 010
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 13/04/2026I mean, no, but there are no rules anymore. Many years ago, I told my husband that someone's candidacy was surely over because he maligned a former POW. 0110
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 06/04/2026I wonder if he could sit in a room of injured servicemen, or families of dead servicemen, and explain that's better than Trans Day of Visibility. 040
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 27/03/2026Everyone wants my feedback, but no one wants my opinion. 010
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 14/03/2026Man, some of us live here. Not too pleased to have him here every weekend. 260
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 16/02/2026He's very smart, unlike her. And it's dangerous. 050
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 05/02/2026The part where the girl runs in the room with the pumpkin on her head, and she's all lit up on sugar . . . I love that. 010
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 03/02/2026Read Animal Farm? This is the horse, Boxer, who keeps getting promised retirement and eventually dies in the field. They send him to the glue factory. 000
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 21/01/2026I realize this is beside the point entirely, but she has nice handwriting. 000
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 21/01/2026I couldn't get over the beauty of the scenery in Train Dreams. It was so pure. 020
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 15/01/2026I was doing jury duty, and a woman was allegedly harmed in a car accident. Her husband was also suing for--and this is permissible in our state--"loss of services of his wife." 110
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 12/01/2026I really enjoyed this, and I was struck by how he doesn't just discuss the need for being human, but how he lives the example, even when it's clearly difficult. A+. 010
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 08/01/2026“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” 020
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 06/01/2026When we look back on this era, January 6th was the day it began. 010
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 28/12/2025I have to stay in my job because my husband is a small business owner. He relies on my insurance. Our current system punishes entrepreneurs. 41506
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 27/12/2025My niece is intellectually disabled. Her reaction to HA2 was, "What! They forgot him AGAIN!" 010
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 03/12/2025I just want you to know that I am over here choking on my laugher. Thank you. 020
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 02/12/2025Go on. Walk away from that hot dog. I dare you. 060
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 26/11/2025I have lived in Florida for 35 years. We don't make good choices. It's our brand. 000
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 26/11/2025I am, too. I think we can narrow the gap, but I agree, it will be tough to overtake Mast. The veterans love him. 110
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 19/11/2025“The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.” 000
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 18/11/2025In fairness, Trump was reading from Lord of the Flies, a favorite book of his. 010
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 17/11/2025Or just listen to the women. bsky.app/profile/aaro... 000
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 16/11/2025Protect them from books, but not adult men. That tracks. 000
awpence.bsky.social @awpence.bsky.social · 14/11/2025Kara Swisher has a take on Elon Musk that applies here, and I am going to summarize it quite badly. It's about the way that he is the hero in a video game in his mind, everyone against him. And everyone exists to either serve him or be destroyed by him. Same mindset, minus the games. 061
