Absolutely nothing wrong with admiring fit, healthy bodies. Unless you have some unhealthy obsessions.

We're all stressed-out just trying to keep up with this avalanche of news.

Are people's memories really that short?

Feels good to live off-grid and be driving a 40 mpg ULEV.

The voters will tell him. But he won't believe them. Bc he lives in a fantasy world of his own devising. He convinced just enough people to join him, enough of the time, to get elected. Silly people don't realize, reality always bats last. Hope it catches up with them before we all go down together.

Translation: "So, er... was that hypothetical (I hope), or do you, like, KNOW something? Can't let on I know who you are talking about, because that would be admitting it's true, wouldn't it?"

It doesn't matter if he meant it or not. A President's words are political acts, and they can have international consequences. The person in that seat needs to be able to consider their words carefully.

He doesn't know that refineries close twice a year for a switchover between summer and winter formulas? Of course he doesn't know.

3.4% is the "official" inflation number right now. Is there anyone except MAGAs who really believe it's that low?

Guess he can't see now, any more than he can walk or talk. Someone please put grandpa in a home where he can be properly cared for!

And he picked a bigger, better-armed, more-determined country this time. But "bounding ambition o'erleaps itself." Too bad we collectively have to pay the price for it.

Oregon ballots will be mailed on October 14th. We should get our voter pamphlet by the end of this week.

Leave out the name of Jesus, and that would be an appropriate sermon in any house of worship, any religion.

I thought she quit to spend more time with her children. Just another lie, am I surprised?

It's been proven that many people will believe anything if it's repeated loudly and often enough

I don't want bribes. I want to have nice things like fairness, equity, and peace.

What could possibly go wrong? Hint: if it can, it will, with these guys in charge.

Someone needs to treat him like he thinks the woman ought to be treated.

What about giving the woman a "fair shake?"

Yes, but how do the Billionaires feel about the economy? That's what matters these days. Not how you and I are doing.

What do you think they juiced him up with? His grip on the podium is all that's keeping him vertical.

He is hanging onto that podium for dear life. I wonder what they pumped him up with to keep him awake.

Does the cheese package also have a kosher symbol? Isn’t that “catering” to another religious group? How about a “veg” designation? Maybe those aren’t wort a mention if you’re MAGA.

Say hi to Jericho for me. Spent the first 3 years of my life there. Don't know what happened to my Mom's books when she died, but someone is reading them.

I see writing runs in your family. My mother was a big fan of (and knew personally) your grandaunt Kaye. In VT.

OMG I made so many mistakes my freshman year. I survived just fine, and learned how to adult.

"Bully" is his preferred look. I can't wait till I no longer have to look at that face (the champagne is chilling for #whenithappens)

He has ever been to any of these national parks except to demand they put his name or likeness on them.

So are there just that many *more* terrorist attempts now, or were there 242 attacks during the last 18 months of Biden's term that we just didn't notice? Because I was pretty happy with the way things were going back then... sigh, seems an age ago now.

Don't they know there's an app to see which passenger jet is flying over? And another one to see what the weather is doing that might cause the exhaust to condense?

I wanted to put it off as long as possible. Took me 5 years and several vax updates before I actually got it. Wasn’t too bad by then, but I’m sure I’d have had a hard case if I’d caught it that first year.

I read "Pilgrim at Tinker Creek" a long time ago, and it forever influenced me to use my powers of observation more fully when I was out in nature.

You two are a beautiful example of love and dedication to a relationship. L'chaim, my friends!

His thought is never going to be “I’m responsible for that.”

Jen Badger @jenbadger5.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
That's a wonderful analogy. You don't have to understand Korean to know that ppl have a right to their own language. And you don't have to understand others' relationships to know that ppl have a right to love "their person." Whoever that is, as long as they are capable of consent.

The patriarchal timeline. What's your opinion on who along this line is actually running this country? Asking as a former victim.

If any man in my family indicated that he cared more about my abuser getting help than ME, I’d tell him they could go to hell together.

They always said ppl vote Dem because they want "free stuff." Turns out the hand-out club is the Rs.

It's a lovely view, but I am very glad to be out of the car wars.

Jen Badger @jenbadger5.bsky.social · 09/09/2026
I'm so confused, is it a war or just a little peccadillo? Is it important enough for us to give everything else up, including freedom, or should we carry on assuming everything will turn out OK? I know what I am going to do... making plans how to get my ballot and vote no matter what.

Jen Badger @jenbadger5.bsky.social · 09/09/2026
Ooh, yeah, just as a whole bunch of mail-out ballots (are supposed to) go out. I'm in Oregon, I wonder if the USPS will pull some shenanigans here. I can ask my postmaster, he's a great guy. I'm prepared to fetch my ballot in person at the Clerk's office.

I love that imagery, but Mitch is not capable of standing and walking. There hasn't even been an AI image of him in quite a while now. I'm sure he is receiving better care than you and I can afford.

Do you think Mamdani has access to any of the Epstein files? Because I am all for child abusers facing justice (no matter what party or how rich they are), and I've been doing a slow burn waiting for something to happen.
