merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 24/09/2026It was 53 around 8am but warmed up to mid 60s. I had a cardigan but only because I’m celebrating that fall, the best weather season, has arrived 100
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 18/09/2026In a country filled with food deserts, buy local and avoid the cheapest whole foods available to most people. Got it. 130
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Which means she is easily manipulated and controlled. Either way, it’s very, very bad. 0400
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 20/08/2026I can’t keep this story straight. Is she a helpless young girl being attacked by the left for her unwavering presidential “support” or a kidnapping victim? 110
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 20/08/2026The best PR spin they could put on this was a literal page from the Epstein files? That’s dark but knowing his base will lap it up is truly bleak. 030
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Any list that doesn’t include one of those isn’t worth reading 040
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Oh, now we know what it took for Lee to get Mormons back on the menu 000
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 04/05/2026Surprise! Oligarchies don’t strengthen a nation. They sell it for parts. You can’t maintain an elite military when leadership is corrupt and contracts are based on favors & inside trading. 020
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 25/04/2026That contains a longer bible verse than brand has ever read 020
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 23/04/2026Has a state election for an amendment/proposition/measure/issue/referendum evee been overturned by the gov & votes of citizens invalidated, in the history of US? I know there have been a few races that required another election for various reasons but has the gov ever told its citizens “no?” 000
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 16/04/2026Makes me assume Graham visited a notorious private island 010
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 16/04/2026Llms aren’t even reliable calculators. Got a whole lecture on “the next token” when I complained about it getting basic addition wrong. Thought I was going crazy double-checking w/my TI-30 from the mid 90s. Nope. TI-30 still the best! 050
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 14/04/2026His supporters accept that he either: 1. Disrespects the office of the president and doesn’t take anything seriously because it’s all a joke to him 2. He lies 3. He doesn’t have the critical thinking skills to understand what he posted Their priority isn’t greatness. It’s self-destruction. 000
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 10/04/2026It’s like a 16yo using AI to command the strongest military power in the history of the world 000
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 10/04/2026No, it’s not the greatest strategic blunder in Amerian military history. That would have required a strategy. 030
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 12/03/2026I assume he orders them ill-fitting on purpose. He knows. He enjoys the power of it. 000
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 25/02/2026Personality over merit is why we are in this mess. Politics shouldn’t be entertainment. We care more about casting a role than securing the blessing of liberty. 020
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 07/02/2026There is nothing sustainable about building a new Olympics destination every 2 years 050
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 07/02/2026The WH promoting the president as a king makes this worse, not better 000
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 23/01/2026Oh good. I thought it was the Senate but couldn’t bring myself to go past the headline. Feeling discouraged tonight. 120
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 23/01/2026It was about 5 or 6 dems that did indeed vote yes passing the funding. 330
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 01/01/2026A bat problem would make vacating a not entirely unreasonable response. I’d rather move. The air would always feel contaminated. Hypothetically, what realistic kind of overpowering fauna would you choose, knowing you plan to occupy said dwelling?For me, not bats! No insects of any kind. 000
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 05/12/2025Dems vote to punish each other for not supporting micro issues. Reps vote for power. GOP strategy is “united we stand, divided we fall.” Dems hold the majority on macro issues but are fractured voters. They rely on temporary support from outraged votes outside their own party. Whose winning? 020
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 15/11/2025They have to dig deep to be deliberately obtuse and polarizing. It’s not news if it’s not clickbait. 010
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 14/11/2025MAGA response to this would be “He doesn’t drink.” 2122
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 14/11/2025IDK about that but my aunt, who lived in New Orleans, told me the story of how the democrat in the LA governor’s race won with slogans like “vote for lizard, not the wizard” and “vote for the crook, it’s important.” The people decided corruption was better than David Duke. 2211
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 13/11/2025But it makes you senator. Says everything you need to know about the american voting public. We like our politicians dumb and folksy. 1861
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 01/10/2025Anyone think the farmers’ crops will flood the current market and bring down food prices or will big agro be given handouts, small farms sold off, and the produce left to rot in the fields? 150

merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 01/10/2025Coke zero = classic coke flavor Diet coke = 80’s new coke flavor 030
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 30/09/2025No, it’s to fire experienced to leaders that are loyal to their country 0131
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 30/09/2025I wish fat shaming was the worst thing I heard today 000
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 29/09/2025Using passionate to describe bad behavior is a failure to hold someone accountable for their actions. It also feels permissive and encourages the behavior. Don’t coddle anti-social behavior. Is this really how we want all public gathering to be? Call it out or encourage it. 010
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 29/09/2025Not sure what thesaurus you were using but passionate doesn’t mean uncivilized. Passionate is more of a positive way to describe intense & specific feelings of interest. These people weren’t passionate about golf. They were AH that were there to berate the other team’s players & wives. Disgusting. 120
merzipan.bsky.social @merzipan.bsky.social · 25/09/2025Yep, that’s what makes Comey so perfect. They are relying on dems to want him punished regardless of charges or evidence and people are gonna roll over for trumped-up belly rubs and if convicted, kick their leg in satisfaction. We all know he is guilty of something. 000
