And BTW, her name’s not “Fanny” Willis. That’s a Trump slur. Lookin’ at you, MSNOW. Your correspondents should know better.

The best comment I’ve seen about the hearing foulup was that their biggest mistake was handing Jack Smith a microphone AGAIN.

Michelle Bachelet endured much criticism for her open agnosticism and secular reforms, but held true to her nonbelief during her two terms as president of Chile (2006 - 10, 2014 - 18). More #HispanicHeritageMonth freethinkers ➡️ ffrf.us/4d3S5wZ

If a coach has a blonde woman tailing 2-3 feet behind him at every moment during a football game, is it unfair to call her his “Natalie”? Too demeaning?

In addition to words like “dIddy” and “Sheeran,” you can also block posts that contain “clavicular.”

Went to an orchestra concert last night. Before the final encore, the director announced that they’d play “I’ll Always Love You,” in honor of Dolly Parton. There was a sweet audible “Aww!” from the audience.

We will need a Truth and Reconciliation process that establishes bipartisan truth. That’s political and economic, perhaps. But we will also will need a Truth and Reconciliation process for science/data.

It started out great, but the day turned into a difficult computer day. Boss wanted to promise software not yet written/proven, then my wife wanted her Mac to work on, but wanted e-mail, but she doesn’t know the password. On her Mac, I couldn’t manage to connect any of her e-mail accounts, then…

If Trump gives every adult $5k, it will cost every adult and their children $5k, plus interest. It’s a totally STUPID idea.

Oh, so now Trump is telling Zelenskyy to stop attacking diesel infrastructure in Russia ‘cause it’s creating a shortage. Trump, talk to Putin about ending his war. It’s like you don’t even think of that.

I still remember the woman interviewed on TV before the election, saying “He figured out how to keep inflation down and prices low.” I yelled at the TV, “You idiot! He didn’t *figure out* shit!”
NYTimes article headline: High Prices Spoil Trump’s New Push to Save GOP Majority.  The words “GOP Majority” are scratched out, replaced with “His Ass.”

So is there a % disapproval where you R guys will feel like you can take him down? Probably not. You’re worried about YOUR future, not LEAST because your remaining base is armed and violent and they will come after YOU. Not admirable courage, even though you KNOW the world would thank you.

My wife couldn't find her purse, air tag said it was here. We looked everywhere. At last I saw it hanging on the back of a chair, then walked away from it and said "I found it!" She immediately looked right at it. Had it been an alligator...

Some people just ruin a good joke by making it plainly obvious. To their credit, I guess, they didn’t add “I see dead people.“ Yeah, we got it the first time.

Admirable clarity @science.org
The Trump administration hates academic science funding, full stop. They hate where that money goes, and they hate who it goes to. They want to keep all that money for themselves, to hand out to favored cronies who can help them get elected and to steer yet more money and more power back into their hands.

That’s it. That’s the story

Strange (for me) experience: In an Irish pub, keeping an eye on the Masters while a soccer game was on the big TV and sound system, and a guy at the bar wearing one of the uniform jerseys. Confusion: Whenever something big happened in the game, we both quickly looked up at the Masters as if were...

I love my sunrises. At this time of year, while the sun comes up behind those trees, we get detailed moving silhouettes of limbs and leaves on the walls behind me.

This old ugly-faced dude is inundating us with ads promising to agree with Trump on everything. He’s got the money to go the distance, but I don’t know whether the time is right for an old ugly-talker. From where I sit, it’s hard to guess.

For something uplifting, pull up Alysa Liu’s figure-skating performances on YouTube, especially the McArthur Park one. Everybody uses the words “joy” and “joyous” when describing them, and you’ll see why. She had fun, and you will, too. The audience exploded into standing O at the end.

Sometimes it’s a curse to be an early riser, but on more days than not, the sunrise is worth it. The best colors are about 30 minutes before official sunrise. I know some people would prefer to never see it, though.
Colors on the horizon about 25 minutes before official sunrise, ranging from deep orange to blue.

Wow, this is sort of like my morning, too, except it’s pleasant outside. I‘ve spent so much time on sniff-abouts that now I’d be happy if she’d just poop in the house. Just poop so I can tell whether it’s solid or liquid. [Sorry, but that’s what we’re dealing with.]

If an integrated utility builds solar, and some do, their customers get the energy free but they pay for the assets’ fixed costs, including profit. If an independent builds solar, the IPP gets market prices for their energy, which they expect/hope will cover the asset fixed costs, including profit.
