Night night sweet dreamies The world can wait a moment while you catch your breath. Then, when you’re ready, lift your whiskers, hold your head high, and face the day. You’ve overcome difficult days before, you can do it again

Good morning and welcome to Fish For Tea Friday Kindness won’t solve every problem, but it can change how we carry them. It lightens the load, brings comfort to hurting hearts, and helps people feel a little less alone.

Mitch McConnell is currently doing what he did to Merrick Garland—using subterfuge to keep a government job from being filled before an election. It's just that he doesn't know it. Because he's dead.

I volunteer sometimes at a food bank warehouse, sorting donations from grocery stores. On Monday's shift there were huge boxes of bagged salad, most with the literal Taylor Farms brand name. Dear grocery stores: don't make a charity compost your diarrhea salad! Do it yourself! Thanks!

What you see in the Sun, is the Chicago skyline from the Indiana Dunes beach, across Lake Michigan. You can see it from 50 miles of distance due to a form of superior mirage, because the skyline is seen above where it's actually located. [📷 wesskywalker] Original post

One thing that happened after Obamacare passed is that it made it much easier for star workers to leave for startups and the ruling class HATES this (they want entrepeneurship and the pathway to the upper class restricted exclusively to their class and their kids)

The Milky Way over a northern Minnesota river. Looks like there's only one satellite in this photo. That's pretty unusual these days.
A vertical photo of the Milky Way rising above a northern Minnesota river. The river enters the photo in the lower right and extends outwards and to the left. The shore of the river is surrounded by green vegetation. Beyond the vegetation, tall pine trees are silhouetted against the night sky. The surface of the river is calm, reflecting the galactic core, the stars above, and the tree silhouettes. 

Above, the Milky Way core rises through a gap in the trees at the back of the river. The bright core shines with a warm glow near the horizon before transitioning to cooler tones tinged with blues and purples above. The faint green and purple lines of air glow can be seen in the sky.

The Pentagon is withholding causality and hit numbers. The CDC is withholding infection rates. The FDA is withholding information about food contamination. The EPA is withholding pollution and climate data. This corrupt administration is ALL about concealing the consequences of its incompetence.

I’ve said before that “compromise“ is basically unilateral disarmamet, and giving the party that lost the election Some of the things they wanted as a consolation prize, which the Democrats always do for the Republicans, but the reverse never seems to hold true

I'm going to phrase this in a way which will hopefully cut through for once: Just 0.7% to 0.8% of Germany in 1930 were Jews. So, what was Hitler's obsession with Jewish folks ?

Thanks to Canadian @shiventaneja.bsky.social for developing these instructions. The CR Box has a high clean air delivery rate for particles in the size ranges of wildfire smoke & should remove a large amount of heavier organic gas-phase components. All at a fraction of cost of other air cleaners.

Note: No one is going to stop for an unmarked vehicle without any identification. We teach people not to stop but to drive directly to the nearest police station. ICE agents seem to be the only people in the country who don't know that.
