@wpri12.bsky.social Any follow-up? Anyone ask about fentanyl being found? In what form? How did it come to be in a cell and yet no inmates were sickened? How were the officers sickened- did they lick the mystery substance? Totally irresponsible. www.wpri.com/news/local-n...
Cry away....it's cleansing. ❤
Congratulations 🎊 Once you get through the initial adjustment....you will love it! The only dirty dishes are yours! No one eats the last cookie!
You know what's been missing for years from the social media/danger to kids discourse- the role of parents. For the vast majority of teens/tweens who have smart phones- they are paid for by the parents. Parents have control over the device and the data. Why are parents not exercising that control?
🤦♀️
"Richard Ferruccio, the President of the Rhode Island Brotherhood of Correctional Officers, said that the two officers were exposed to Fentanyl, were given NARCAN on the scene, and are expected to be okay." There is ZERO evidence to back this statement. www.wpri.com/news/local-n...
But chances are that neither(obv not the business mg)have privileges at the NH hospital so the statement is odd. Calling to get current meds/status is one thing- saying that they are overseeing care is a stretch.
Business partner and medical provider overseeing his care in a NH hospital? DV victim aka sex worker?🤔 Surely there's a police report regarding assistance rendered by Rudy?
Again, but I expect this kind of report from a Sinclair station. This is bullshit. They weren't 'exposed to fentanyl'. They didn't feel faint from a theoretical exposure to fentanyl vapor. Basing your report on the unverified words of the head of the police union is terrible journalism.
This is bullshit- they weren't 'exposed to fentanyl'. Will you please stop perpetrating this lie?? Any of the prisoners exposed to this theoretical substance 'feel faint'? This is how you lose public trust. Terrible reporting.
Had I won Powerball I would have funded the $10m. Alas, no such luck.
That's harsh!! Good luck tonight!
$100 million for domestic, civic expenses(?) - like (#RIPTA , fund the $10 gap.) Fix playgrounds, park benches, graveyards, historic sites, walkways, ball fields city by city as far as I can. $100m left to give to charities and causes of my choosing. Jane Goodall would get a big chunk! Sigh. 3/3
Figure $400million after all is done? $100m to gift around to family,friends, colleagues over the years. Mortgages, car loans, student debt, tuition gone for as many people as I have known. $100 m to replace books, musical instruments, sports gear across wartorn places, especially Ukraine. 2/3
I have my #Powerball ticket. I only buy 1 and only when it's stupid money. For $1Billion I will buy my chance. It's actually worth the investment. For $2 I bought time in a long-running fantasy that runs in my head. "What I would do with stupid money." It really is a fun little day trip. 1/3
That's eerie and entrancing.
Keep going and make it King size? Lol Congrats 👏
Talk to Putin, then fire your Russia expert. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
For real? Gross!
Is it a good idea to use a 'soft stone' on an outdoor floor?? Seems heavy things often go on outdoor floors? 😕
And 2 of them have been up for years- looking old and faded.
I was just in Maine- driving through MA, NH. Over the past decade there have been many Trump signs along the way. This year I saw 3 the whole way.
Nope.
Yes, sadly not true 😔 Vance made a comment and DT hadn't been seen in 48+ hours. Unfortunately he was seen this morning.
Highly, highly recommend. Yum. Toasted with butter or whipped cream. 😋😋 #TraderJoes
Charging him with being disloyal, the ultimate crime in NP.
As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.
New @therestpolitics.bsky.social LEADING - @nicolasturgeon.bsky.social Part 2 alastaircampbell.org/2025/08/150-...
Fantastic interview. Thank you.
A win-win! Support @ecorinews.bsky.social & the @redsox.com by bidding on these great seats to see them battle the @yankees.com in a September pennant race.
Absolute nonsense.

U.S. Labor secretary to visit Cranston firefighters Thursday afternoon rhodeislandcurrent.com/briefs/u-s-l...
Chavez-DeRemer’s visit to Cranston Thursday for her “America at Work” listening tour comes less than a week after the Trump administration issued a stop work order on Revolution Wind. By @krish-eh.bsky.social rhodeislandcurrent.com/briefs/u-s-l...

The toddler I watch picked up 2 acorns today. It's undeniable now....sigh.
The block-headed stupidity is really hard to deal with.
He's been aggressive and spot on. I like him too.
His wife has been my mom's pcp for at least a couple decades now, she's very good people if that factors in. 🤷♀️ To the best of my knowledge he has no executive experience. That's all I can come up with.
We passed a tax dubbed the "Taylor Swift tax" Why the hell would she celebrate here @govdanmckee.bsky.social ?
I don't know your story...but I am sorry that's a thought you have to have. There's pain in that thought. 😔
The fact that it's been dark now for an hour means my body thinks it's midnight 🙃 The loss of daylight hits hard.
Depending on the size of the bag...
You can't control the narrative without careful word choices and not giving easy weapons.
I was just away for a week- brought 5 books- read 2.5. But I needed options.
in an academic setting(because it is a sound theory)instead of countering strongly with"That's not happening in elementary schools!!" And shutting down the nonsense. Dems and the left have lost millions of votes because they can't control the narrative but instead defend against culture war BS.
No. It's insane that you don't see the consequences and power of word choices. We aren't playing a semantics game here...the stakes are too high. Say the facts without the euphemisms and hyperbole. When 'CRT' was the chosen line of attack more Dems got tripped up trying to explain it 1/2
And they had a blank slate to start with so they designed it. I haven't been in yet but have been waiting for it to open for a long while! It took forever.
Being smart with word choices, understanding the purpose of the words, understanding the consequences of our words is critical. Who are you trying to reach with your words? Because your delivery and word choices should change to meet them in their place. Your message and information stays true.
I have no idea how you came to that conclusion. Wtf?
Our biggest threat right now is the Trump administration. It will take all of us to come out of this with a democratic nation. If you're pro democratic USA then I will listen to you. Slamming the door on people because they have some differing opinions, now or prior, is shortsighted.
"Let's stop taking advice from the Republicans who helped pave the way for this mess" This particular statement was about Tom Nichols. This is how we keep losing. We can't agree with someone who has been one of the clearest anti-Trump voices for a decade?? This is litmus/purity nonsense. 1/2
I don't read much on substack(nazi platform)but have understood that premise for many years now and saw much discourse around it this morning. Of course it only takes a few. Of course the right runs with any possible course of attack. That's why we shouldn't give them the weapons.
The most important point is that the "right freaks out--and *they* use them" to all of our harm. I didn't hear many Dems saying "No, we don't want to defund the police" and that is how the right can use them to hurt us all. I didn't need Tom to tell me "defund the police" was a bad slogan.
"Getting ratioed" is not something people worry about, it's a silly concept.
much better screening and higher standards. We need to demiliterize a civilian force. But we cannot "defund" the police. It's a disingenuous slogan that says nothing about the problems or changes that are needed and puts forward a nonsensical, impractical vision of lawlessness. Words matter. 5/5
Who do you call when there's a shooting? A bank robbery? We call the police and are appreciative of their help in stopping the emergency. Are they often flawed? Yes. Are they often brutal and racist? Yes. Does law enforcement need major changes? Yes. We need laws. We need training. We need 4/5
are full of racism, brutality and radicals. And yes I know they started in America as slave catchers. In our society we cannot and will not 'defund' the police. With all of the grotesque abuse and corruption they are still needed. Who do you call when your neighbor is beating their child? 3/5
Refusing to accept that some terminology is harmful is shortsighted and self-defeating. 'De-fund the police' is an example that IS STILL costing votes. It was weaponized by the right and twisted in ways that cost many elections. That doesn't mean that I don't think our Police departments 2/5
One thing that is killing the "left", "dems", "progressives"- whatever labels you apply....is the purity/litmus tests and the refusal to be simply pragmatic. I watched @radiofreetom.bsky.social spend the weekend being skewered for speaking out against the use of certain words. It's nonsensical. 🧵
I remember his bravery and commitment. I wish him peaceful healing.
Tom....go to the beach. You've spent enough time trying to teach the unwilling.
The most peaceful place ever. It was good to get away. 😌 #Maine #VacationLand

Shut up.
👏👏
We need to get global printers to replace the hundreds of thousands of destroyed books, children's books, textbooks and all.
Foolish behavior. Unbecoming of an officer of the court.

So vomit inducing.
I am sick over this. Vile. Evil incarnate and narcissistic chump.
Can everyone STOP saying "elites" please? It is a word that has no agreed on definition in today's world. Is it Ivy League? Wealthy? Coastal? Urban?
I am so sorry.
I am so sorry we put this stooge in charge. He's fucking vile.
Today I remembered last fall when we had like 2 straight months of dry, blue skies.....not again please. 💙
Waiting for the day this will change 😅
Bet you most of the NP contingent of Columbus fans have no idea who he is. Many might not even know that we named a bridge for him.
Day-trippers and tourists can rearrange their schedules....it's the people who may live in Portsmouth but work in Bristol who will have a very long, unpleasant weekend.
If you enjoyed them and have happy memories associated- don't worry about the haters. Like what you like. Wisdom from an elder Gen X.
Trump is the worst thing to happen to Ukraine. Sorry.

You could mention that the narcissist has chosen to host the event. Will not watch. At all.
Of course they did. I think the term is Snowflakes!
Could you please ask the landlord why?
Maybe it’s time to sample the old blotter again 🤪
Dear God no.....I can't even imagine that in 2025.....in Trump's world....🤣
Support groups.
Fail.

Why don't Dems or any media ever ask about Caitlin Jenner? Has Nancy Mace ever followed her to the bathroom? She and Trump are long time friends- use her since she won't speak up.

Fu k that shit!!
The American people- it's our history and our property. It doesn't belong to the Executive branch. We are harmed by having it taken thus denying us the chance to view it.
Do they pay you to advertise?
Not good.
If this is even a thing in 7 years- Zohran and Michelle Wu. Imagine. Sigh....
I saw it, thanks for pointing it out. He's good.
