We went to the MIA today and I live that they have wheelchairs available for people to use! So we grabbed a wheelchair so I wouldn't use all my energy walking and standing. It was wonderful! There was also a butterfly garden outside!

Name a TV show you're positive no one remembers but you. I was devastated when Emerald City was cancelled. It was lush and inventive and I wanted to learn all the secrets OZ was holding. Tarsem Singh directed this brilliantly dark version of OZ and I loved every moment.

I'm depressed and angry so I'm reading The Color Of Law, which is all about how federal, state, and local governments ensured residential segregation troves to this day. And how unconstitutional all these laws and policies are.

I'm weaving in all the ends on a rainbow scarf I knit for @arajellybean.bsky.social. I don't usually enjoy weaving in ends but right now it's soothing.

Gauge would like to share his tea dragon plushie with you. It helps him cope with really bad days, and he thinks it might help you as well.

If you are in Emmer's district, please call him repeatedly and often to tell him he's full of shit. Read the linked article and if your rep is a co sponsor maybe call them as well emmer.house.gov/media-center...

1:21 p.m | Emmer bill calls for stripping citizenship from government fraudsters

Minnesota Republican U.S. Rep. Tom Emmer has introduced a bill that would make it easier to denaturalize U.S. citizens over certain crimes.

It would create a path to strip U.S. citizenship from someone who is convicted of fraud against the government, is found to have joined or affiliated with a foreign terrorist organization, or is convicted of an aggravated felony or espionage within 10 years of their naturalization.

In a news release, Emmer, the House majority whip, said the bill would "restore long-overdue integrity to America's entire naturalization process."

Historically, denaturalization cases have been relatively rare. They've occurred mainly when people misrepresented or concealed their identities to obtain citizenship.

I'm laughing so hard because I use mine far longer than 30 minutes a day and keep WiFi on because I also read on my phone and like to have everything sync. I can go a week before I need to charge. I can go two to three if I keep it in airplane mode. Per Kobo I could go 40 days if I read less.

What is not a shock is that my top songs were all kpop. I do listen to a variety of music but Tidal is what I use for my kpop and my instrumental music. Spotify is what I use for family music, which is a lot of classic pop and classic rock. I do find it funny that kpop was still my top genre.

My top ten songs also surprised me a bit with Life Goes On, Seven, and Don't Say You Love Me. I do love these songs but they aren't songs I reach for on the daily. But again, I've been doing the BCD challenges since November so this skews things. I may need to rethink the challenges.

Since the op blocked me, here is the context for the post below, which was a response to this post by May. You can't see my back and forth with the user anymore because they blocked me, finally. But basically they were mad I didn't agree with how they defined social class bsky.app/profile/godd...

A screenshot of a post by a user named Selene, where they write:

Defining things isnt classist, nor is defining class along the lines of productive relations classist. It doesnt harm someone to define class accurately. In fact, I did make a point of saying it's not a moral category and that there is a reason for the designation between pb and bourgeois.

For some reason I got sent two packs of Double Decker bars and this makes me sad. I should like it but I don't. It's a whipped nougat that's supposed to have a hint of coffee, crisped rice, and covered in milk chocolate. The nougat to me tastes like licorice instead of coffee. I could skip these.

Crunchie is not new to me and I love them! They are thick honeycomb sponge toffee with a lovely thick milk chocolate coating. They are sweet but not as sweet to me as caramel. They taste like my teen and college years and o would eat one every day if I could.

The Time Out bar is if you took a Coffee Crisp and made it thinner and with no coffee flavoring. It's a nice light bar of chocolate cream and wafers covered in milk chocolate. I really liked it. Not too sweet. Not too heavy. Definitely silky and yummy!

The Cadbury Picnic bar and I wanted to like it as I had some of my favorite things: peanuts, raisins, rice crisps and caramel. But for me the chocolate bar is doing too much. It has a nice mouth feel and the flavors all work but it wasn't right for me.

*base bar. Fudge is the next chocolate bar. It's thin and long but instead of being chocolate it's a fudge-like bar with a milk chocolate coating. I'm not sure what Cadbury was going for but to me it just tastes blah and the texture was a bit grainy. For me this is a no.
