"activists have alleged he is one of the agents seen forcing a pregnant woman to the ground during a Minneapolis operation. " (Local angle.) (I did wonder if he was here at some point.)

Someone just reposted this thread and that reminded me to look up how many whistles we've sent to "Marie" since this first happened seven months ago and the answer is 67,000. 67,000 whistles.

When I feel like crap for how little I've managed I remember I've only had one fully functional leg since at least Spring though that excuse doesn't fly for all the stuff I could do while sitting down. Damn. Not having clear pathways in the house probably isn't helping my leg. (sigh.)

I don't think that service is available until 8 a.m. and one appointment is at 7 a.m. and the other at 7:30 a.m. (one coming up next week, one at the end of the month). Will investigate to see what options there are but that will require phone calls, dammit.

When you can't walk or stand on one of your legs for very long it's a problem. I thought it was cool the hospital where I'll be going for a couple of appointments has a service where they'll come and wheel you around to where you need to be in a transport chair only my appointments are early . . .

is it just me or does this “sliced” bakery sticker go unnecessarily hard

A bag of bread, with a sticker showing “SLICED” and a drawing of a knife. The lettering on the sticker is large and bold, with a thin sliver cut through the word indicating the casual, precision violence inflicted therein

I'm kind of wishing for an army of laser loons right now. They could defend our Somali neighbors and do other good things. With lasers. (Us humans will have to do our part, I guess, without the aid of any loons. Bummer.)

I am very proud to be represented in Congress by a Somali-American woman who came to this country as a refugee. But even if I wasn't, Somali people are my neighbors. We already taught the world once: we Minnesotans love our neighbors with our lives.

It may wind up being more of a winter mix or solstice or something that's less Christmas and more general winter and lights focused, we'll see. I started gathering up songs a bit yesterday and some are definitely not holiday songs.

Very VERY glad to see Jon Ossoff leaning all the way the fuck away from the centrists trying to tell dems to "reconcile" or "tone it down" or "find the persuadable republicans." This is the shit, right here. Hammer down and make them have to say on live TV that they love Nazis. The end.

Maybe somebody should start a podcast where they just have SF authors come on and say, "The point is that the Torment Nexus is *bad* and shouldn't be built, you dipshits."

You guys want to hear a short but adorable story that happened right in front of me at the baggage claim in NYC yesterday? I wasn't part of it and there are bits I didn't catch but holy crap, I can't stop thinking about it.

I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

I've posted about this before but it's so fucking messed up and really should be an impeachable offense if the President is literally attacking entire states or segments of the population. (Good thread.)

Years ago I was shocked when I learned Thrivent used to be Aid Association for Lutherans. (Or, per Wikipedia: "Thrivent Financial was officially formed on January 1, 2002, with the merger of Aid Association for Lutherans (AAL) and Lutheran Brotherhood")

Living life on the edge here what with using chicken sausage in my pasta dish that had a "freeze or use by" date of October 7th. (I joke but I'm kind of obsessive about expiration dates and worry more than most about food going bad etc.)

Haven't done my annual rant about how much it sucks that so much of the MLB postseason is not on broadcast TV and can't be streamed unless you have cable or whatever. (Once again wondering how many people turn to sketchy means to watch baseball. Not that I would ever do that, of course.)
