Saw my first Vivek Ramaswamy sign today. Granted, I live in a predominantly Democratic county, but it is still unusual to see this few signs for Republican candidates. Still haven’t seen a single Husted sign. #Ohio

My spouse is forever complaining about fonts being used in movies and TV that weren’t designed yet.

You can rent it on YouTube! I’ve been doing that a lot lately with movies that aren’t available on any of my streaming services.

I love when some Guardian fashion article shows up on my feed and it’s so jarring—like are there really people worried about how to wear a leather jacket rn???!!!

Oh, hey did you see insurance premiums will be going up 11% next year too?

journocrat.bsky.social @journocrat.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
Federal employees got a whopping 1% raise last year and, unless Congress acts, will get no raise in 2027, but there will be another double-digit increase in insurance premiums. FUCK THIS SHIT

Although I am frequently disappointed in my home state I wouldn’t read too much into this cheering crowd. Sure, we have our share of unreachable diehard MAGAs, but I’ve noticed the R households in my neighborhood have no political signs in their yards this time. I think there’s hope!

There are states that tell insurance companies they can’t cover properties where certain dog breeds reside? I thought that decision was up to the insurance companies because I recall State Farm running a national ad campaign a few years ago focusing on how they didn’t discriminate by breed.

Nah. We recently turned two golf courses into parks in my county and it’s amazing to see nature taking back over. Just one of the many efforts that have contributed to being able to use the Cuyahoga River for recreation now instead of watching it burn!

I read Pilgrim at Tinker Creek while staying at the Farnsworth Cabin in the Allegheny National Forest in 2017 after nature writer Neil Ansell recommended it. Lovely memory.

Every time I see him with a foreign leader I wonder who would even want to be the leader of their country rn in case they’d have to be in the same room as him hear this sort of thing in real time without creating an international incident.

I feel so bad for young people in this position who are stuck with their parents until they are 18 (or longer due to Trump’s economy)! At least we older folks can choose to stop talking to our family members who joined the cult.

I’m working on Labor Day for the first time ever because that 1% raise federal employees got this year really isn’t cutting it. But at least I’ll be paid double time—thank you unions!

Whatever happened with Penny’s ring? Max swiped it and used it to propose to Cindy, right? I seem to remember some offhand comment about getting her a real ring after the proposal.

No doubt in my mind these gloves will be in use for like a week and then be retired because they hurt themselves/each other/a person in a video that goes viral and/or they don’t work as advertised and the taxpayers are out millions while some crony whose company manufactures them pockets the money

Oh, wow. Pretty sure I watched that at the time and my mother had to explain that wasn’t really Mick Jagger because I was 7 years old. I think I was confused about why it was supposed to be funny because it was too perfect 🤣
