Dear Dan, Please, let us hope for the best. The plans for the worst should be done by now, so let’s indulge. Your friend, Jonathan
I am a father, husband, cat dad, engineer, gamer, car enthusiast, anime watcher, and human. In that order. He/him I fight depression, anxiety, oppression of the voiceless, bigotry, prejudice, oligarchy, and misinformation.

That’s always a man’s answer. But someone was wishing if they say 6 and it measures 4. 🤪
Those numbers don’t math. Even for a man, that’s off.
His brand of narcissism brings out my CPTSD.
I am sorry but now more than ever I need the help. gofund.me/18405ce8
I can’t watch him, I have to be drunk before hand.
My gods are in the dairy-free section unfortunately.
I’m fairly certain most people of any awareness of the extreme right saw this coming when Roe was demolished.
I want a Netflix 3-part series about the conviction of this killer crab.
Trick question! Pup has just thrown the ball.
Nina would like to visit that bag if there’s room for two.
En-see-k-lop-o-dee for me.
This! I was extremely unhappy about the mispronunciations in kids shows when my kids were littles.
You are not alone.

Ok, hear me out. A Lord of the Rings re-make, but with these two taking the One Ring to Mordor:
Sir Pratchet’s life was a blessing to all.
It's nice that we're all having a good time together.
i don’t like the idea of the president missing. he could be anywhere. i am suddenly aware how little i appreciated opening my shower curtain knowing the president would not be standing there
If you don’t know, you can still defrag. It just takes the better part of 9 years now. #oldSky
check back there in a week jon i bet that wallet will just be full of little baggies of ambiguous drugs it is the giving culture i believe
Sometimes someone goes by a short name and you just don’t know either - Alex, Pat, Chris/Kris, Franky, etc… It simplifies so much to have pronouns.
Oh me too. ☹️
I will never understand the death cult of guns
The willingness some have to sacrifice lives on the supposed wisdom of white men dead for 200 years is insane.
Oh man, I’m sorry. We are dropping VMware as fast as possible.
lol I’m a network engineer. Gear stays running for 10-12 years and then Security finds out it’s still able to run telnet and makes you upgrade it. Inevitably it’s the network in front of the server that everyone prays never goes down.
“Let’s call your VP” *conf call button, dial tone, dialing* “Wait, what?” *ringing* “Hello? Jon? What’s broken? Well Tom, Trevor from your system team was explaining how I needed to restart the network to fix -redacted- “ “I can explain!” “Trevor? You can drop Jon, thanks, I got this”
“I AM GOING TO CALL YOUR MANAGER!” *click* 30seconds *ring* “NOC this is Jonathan.” “HOW THE *%}>>^ DID I GET BACK TO YOU?!?” “Well, it’s Saturday at 8pm. I am the only one here.“ “YOU NEED TO RESTART THE NETWORK!” “No.” “I WILL ESCALATE!” “Have fun then.” “I KNOW YOUR VP!” “Cool” “I WILL…”
Yes. My first NOC job was powered by Mountain Dew, PERL, and the phrase, “Turn it off and then back on.”
Office Space, on the other hand, is a documentary.
These complete monsters! I was on a work call and exposed to this the WHOLE time. I cannot begin to tell you how upset this made me.
Have a pleasant night!
lol 😆
Sequel eta? Like months or years?
I lived on combos in junior high
Realizing that the cats need to be seen.
Dear Juniper Bear and Couch Potato, I am sorry to inform you that the picture you have is obscured by the most beautiful doggo ears that we have observed in ages. Please post again what is behind the superb ears. Thank you, Jonathan and Annie (cat)

He wants to be a dictator, said so on TV, and is now acting as one. No one seems to be saying, “No, sir, that is not a mission, that is a play to massage your ego and we will not participate.” Getting fired for saying no to a tyrant is what you are supposed to do.
Looking at socials for the first time today. Can I get a do-over?
remember folks, we cant have gun restrictions because if we do the federal government will occupy our streets, imprison people without due process, ship dissidents to foreign gulags and things of that nature
This is Jetty. He never wants to hear you complain about his barking again. 13/10 (IG: ullalynn3)
Agreed. I just thought of 4 ways to make it work. never going to be in Windows unless it can sell you a subscription to an Office product Apple might have it, but only if you use their email app, probably Linux: echo “alias email=‘’” >> ~/.bashrc && source ~/.bashrc
Ragebait McTrollbot blocked.
Please no sand worms
Wait for rocogirl please!
He is so happy!
That’s business as usual everywhere I have worked. We don’t have “plans” in my line of work, more like an Ouija board bolted to a telescope pointed at Mercury and a magic 8 ball held by a toddler.
It won’t happen, but a VP Jay Inslee with either of those guys could yoink in climate votes well. Definitely talk EPA or Interior with him. I fear our foreign policy stance would be as bad as Biden (which is still better than tDump) but we could at least rebuild relationships.
It’s the difference between cheering and taunting.
German postal services group DHL said Friday that it would suspend the shipment of standard parcels for businesses to the United States, in line with similar moves by European peers deterred by looming US customs duties for low-value packages.
Hey guys. Im sorry to do this but I cant currently afford medical expenses & treatment. I've been unable to properly work & im struggling just to get by. My neurologist has recently set up a treatment plan & I can't afford injection supplies, copays, or transportation. Thank you gofund.me/18405ce8
Thanks! We will be ok! I’m having our only major tree trimmed tomorrow and our grass is short or non existent. The tall trees at the end of the street are big 70-80ft (23-27m) but not going to burn easy. I’m more worried about folks up hill where the trees are higher and denser. Fingers crossed
We now have a red flag warning meaning the state expects new wildfires any day now. Some forecasts for lightning 😥
Cheeky bubby
Well then that pro cop should be helping that person get back up and clean up that paint. Maybe help spread it out so it dries fast and no one slips on it. I mean a roller or brush could do that fast. Alas I feel there are no pro cops in Florida. 2/2
Deep down, I need to believe that there are some cops that are real professionals and understand that their job is protecting their citizens from real harm. So if a citizen is crossing a street and happens to trip and spill some paint from an open bucket 1/2
Daaaamn. Need to get a couple new hoses and probably sprinklers.
A red flag warning means that conditions exist where a fire could spread. Please be cautious and help prevent sparks. Last week, we heard about a fire that started because a trailer had a flat tire and was driving on a rim that started sparks. Extra care needs to be taken now. #wawx
Hmmmm I wonder if I can incorcise a specter?
We have nearly 90F (32c?) for the next few days. Then we drop down to the 70s (25-27c). Heat warning to Tuesday. 3 possible fires to kill air quality. No rain coming.
Mine transformed into a smoll floof gargoyle. Do you know how I turn it back?
Trans people are “new”? (wtf right?) I had a talk with my mom once about several pairs of same sex “roommates” that lived where she grew up in Riverside Ca. circa 1955. Her point was that people knew the truth and chose to not make it their business and gay people were always there.
Agreed all the way down to the turtle. Playing to a psychopath isn’t a valid option.
I hope your Sunday was wonderful.
Uhhh no. That’s right there “exscape” and “exsspresso” and “pin” when you mean pen. What is wrong with people?
We are a country of contradiction and hypocrisy. We have been traded to extremists for the trappings of wealth and power.
Our cabinet is appointed by the president and confirmed by the senate. They aren’t members of congress. Following the speaker, the line of succession goes to the president pro tem of the senate, then the cabinet. The goal is to keep the party in power, in power.
What a wonderful hop to claim your pear Masuke-san!
None. Removal of the president results in the presidential succession line being used. VP, speaker of the house, etc.
I’m an expert, deal with it. Or so I’d say, if I hadn’t simply blocked the jello mould that came at me with “google doesn’t know what you’re talking about so let me be a pedantic jerk” 😡
No waiver needed. The “escort” method is 100% legit and used all over. Normally a person needs to be on US soil and have a clearance called FedPass. In case an expert is needed to consult, a documented process for “escort” is used. MS egregiously broke with norms, allowing the escorted tech control
If this happens to you, quickly stand, turn in a circle with your eyes open, then close one eye and ask for the name of the fae who’s taken your bottle cap. If no one answers you need only remember your way home. If there is an answer you now control the name of a faerie. You’ll know what to do next
Ops costs money and you don’t get promoted for costing money. I can almost guarantee the practice was disclosed but the government probably used some “self attestation” BS or an incompetent 3rd party.

Valid point. Those fuckers.
Making fun of the disabled and all, talking about grabbing *+*+*+ like what does “inappropriate even mean to those people?
It’s hard to make law retroactive. So maybe?
Touch grass in Washington state. Our Governor was our AG in Tdump 1 and won almost every suit against the administration, including SCOTUS.
Reminds me of the time, I think, Randy Johnson disintegrated a pigeon. Glad to know this guy is ok.
It’s from proximity to Rudy
My head on my Annie cat head is mine, so there you go. I’m cats from the neck down!

Agreed. The days of our grandparents (I am GenX) being in power are gone. It’s my parents and my generation of hate and millenials are all polarized. So if someone doubts that laws are intended to be used as weapons, by their true authors, we need to have a chat.
Yes. And all able to be compelled for release with a court order or statute. So if you are a spitfire dissident then you would never be anonymous. I feel safer with the hackers honestly, they just want money.
This hits square. I hate it, but it’s how it is working.
They will come for VPNs next when they get told no to requiring unencrypted data dumps.
This is correct. I engineer in tech. We do not want to have any data for longer than needed and no data we don’t need. Anything we have can be compelled or stollen if we slip up. That’s not to say data aggregates don’t exist but they hold computer id data, not usually personal stuff
State ID of the child or parent.
We need a corporate equity holding system where the US can be a beneficial partner receiving equity equal to 20% of gross profits quarterly. The US could then sell bonds against the equity stake and whenever the board of the Fed may believe beneficial to the nation also sell the equity. /sarcasm
It is a forcing function for tech corp cannibalism, fratricide, and deicide. Leading to eventual revolution in tech power efficiency. Corps will eat each other to get every spare electron. Then they eat themselves & save only the $$ maker tech. Last they kill the gods of proprietary lock in
B will get used to the situation at some point and settle down for him.
Do we need to sign a petition to make this happen?
Honestly, “the fish…” anything, is better in Iceland. I’m from Seattle in the US and we know fish, but I think Iceland would school us (pun intended).
To anyone without astigmatism this is what I see when looking at a point of light without my glasses. With my glasses it’s more of a point with a starburst. If you have astigmatism, what do you see? #glasses #sightimpaired
I struggled with that. M is probably feeling powerless, I know I did. I eventually learned to just be able to hold crying baby and go about my business one handed. These days I hear crying baby and I’m like, “Gimme, uncle Jon is here to hold and bounce and sway.” I don’t, tho, bc that’s creepy AF
