Talked to my sister, who lives with him. Actually, the fall didn't kill him. He was taken by 911 to the hospital. Two days later, his heart stopped.

My Dad died yesterday following a fall. He was 100, and my rock.

@eschneider.bsky.social oh... then in May, we had a fire in our condo building. 🙄 We lost almost everything. Living room & kitchen are fairly free of water,asbestos, & smoke damage; we can salvage a few things this week before the construction crew throws everything out to rebuild the condo😜

Hey, fellas, before you write that white hot take about how rape is such a tricky thing and, I mean, who can really say what happened and, you know, maybe we should not be too judgmental, I'd like to remind you that instead you can simply shut the fuck up.

Ballpoint pen, watercolor, colored pencil, a little crayon, and charcoal pencil. 

Our guy pulls up deep in the forest on his 2-speed bike. He’s flanked by tall dark trees and his path is blocked by a massive spider. He lets the Big Fella know it’s on. “Big Fella,” he says. “I fixed my 2-speed. You still wanna race.” Reader, you know Big Fella wants in on that action. Next slide.Against a starry night sky we see silhouettes of Big Fella and our man racing down a hill. It’s unclear in the drawing who will win but Big Fella is likely about to pull away.

Viktor Orbán created the global blueprint for authoritarian populism and became a MAGA hero. Today, Hungarian voters sent him packing after 16 years in power. There is nothing inevitable about these guys. Organize. Vote. Fight back. It works.

My first love's family escaped from their home in Budapest in 1956 when Russian tanks came rolling in (his father, a minor government employee, was briefly jailed.). My ex-husband's father was first generation American, from Hungary. When pregnant, I said I had a little Hungarian in ME. #resist

My opinion is that Epstein hid some files in the East Wing, requiring Trump to tear it down, then he clearly doesn't know zoning laws, so boom! He illegally starts a war with Iran. Who needs coffee?

Reminder that Donald Trump Jr. sits on Polymarket's advisory board and his firm invested double-digit millions into the platform last year. The DOJ and CFTC both had active investigations into Polymarket that were dropped after Trump took office.

@kphbritt.bsky.social sorry to say my sister got the knitting genes, but I DID needlepoint for quite a while. My first crush was Bill Powell in THE THIN MAN when I was roughly 4, then Jimmy Cagney dancing off the walls in YANKEE DOODLE DANDY. (Of COURSE I got a Theater degree, Vocal Minor!)

I believed all my life that this was a Universe of plenty; that if God shut a door, a window opened. These past two years have battered me down so much, with a culture of "Grab what you can before the other guy!"; that "law & order" is just a TV show... I'm losing faith. Hope. And charity...
