Right. I made it through Mr. Skeffington, @bcdreyer.social. That was bonkers. First a comedy, then the turn into melodrama (divorce, settlement, neglectful mother), and whisps of anti-Nazi propaganda. But, āIām back from school in Switzerland, Dadās in Berlin, Iām worried about him, andā¦
Might pick up a split of something along with my lunchā¦just in case.
Americans Astronomers watching watching US politics Betelgeuse š¤ āIt could happen at any timeā
Today from the Coors Field scoreboard:
Oh, that is very good.
I keep saying this, but if there is a sharp rise in skepticism or negativity towards the military among liberals because of these occupations, it will be treated as a problem that Democratic leaders need to answer and apologize for, not a crisis that the military or US government needs to address.
Go with the feeling and sleep.
Heās resigning.
Another Bernout blocking spree is in order, I seeā¦
thereās gotta be a MAGA lurker on here who wants to leak me something
A two-front war: Chicago and Baltimore.
100% would rent for a vacation!
Aww, hoom snuggles are really good, too!
Honestly, this may be one of the most important media graphs I've ever seen. The claim: Democrats keep using annoying words. The data: Republicans CLAIMS Democrats use them, which then becomes the narratives. Then centrists attack DEMS for things GOPer CLAIM they say, not GOP for making stuff up.
Invasions of Chicago and Baltimore, most likely. Resigning, least likely, most hoped-for.
Loomer is pregnant
Most likely. Least likely, but almost most-hoped for, would be resignation. Let a girl dream, OK? š
I am not going to speculate, but watch if heās standing or seated.
Thatās 11 Pacific. I have a 10:45 haircut. Will keep my phone in hand, just in case itās something exciting, like a resignation.
Ate. Drinking water.
Dinner. Get up, put it together, eat. Drink more water.
Too bad smoking has fallen out of favor, just one cracked window and flicked match away from a really amazing set of photographs.

Now I need to watch Local Hero again, but just for the soundtrack this time. Not a difficult task!
I say this with love. Too many of us take our health for granted. As we get older, it's even more important. Take care of yourselves, babes. We only get to do this life one time.
Stinson Beach in Marin County, California, does have entry points or what weāre considering here to be entrances. Not once in the 50+ years of going there have I ever once left my shoes at the entrance! Nor do I remember anyone else ever leaving shoes, except accidentally.š©“š©“ā¤ļø
There's a simple test. Put RFKJr in a room with 100 unlabeled kids. Have him sort the vaccinated from the unvaccinated based on vibes or whatever he's claiming, and see how he does. He should welcome this chance to prove he's right in a scientific way.
Surely thereās room for one more? Whereās Dale? šø Queen Jellybean has no need of sharing if she doesnāt want to share.š
When you see union issues depicted on US-filmed, scripted TV shows, it's a good time to remember that nearly every single person who made that show possible is a union member.

Spiky stibnite or fluffy okenite? I've seen samples of each in museums and they're both appealing. But okenite is new to #MinCup25, so I'll give it a boost.
Trumpās mysterious disappearance from public raises new questions about Joe Bidenās advanced age
Word salad AND answering the question he wanted to hear instead of the question he heard.
The House Oversight Committee will be holding a closed-door roundtable tomorrow (Tuesday) to hear from Jeffrey Epstein's survivors, says Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.).
So good! And Farrell & Sutherland recorded everything separately, iirc. Wasnāt Kiefer a recast? Spectacularly terrifying.
I dont care what actually happens to him, but let's all be clear we're blaming jd vance no matter what.

Took 22 days for Litvinenko to finally die, horrible death for him.
Well it can't be polonium, that works too fast
People forget we were literally having a 9/11 every single day (30% more actually) with COVID deaths in Trumpās final month, And not only was he doing literally nothing about it he was waging war on the Capital and democracy.
Jobs! Jobs for everyone! More jobs for people you havenāt yet hired! Thatās a weird optimism.
I donāt drive and could still do a better job than that! Was waiting for it to crash into the front car or the truck, tbh.

You know what I think is a a sign something is seriously wrong? No leaks. I canāt imagine White House preventing any leaks unless theyāve tightly restricted those who are around Trump Whoās CiC right now? Can Trump perform his job as well as he could 2 wks ago? Is it worse than Lloyd Austin?
Acting President Miller will really try to be Acting President Miller.

RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. NŹkiāwah brother.
Here's the response from Paul Bryant, the Black veteran and lawyer whom the govt arrested in part bc he had a legal weapon in DC, to USG attempt to get him detained. It leans heavily into the lack of Body Cam proving he shoulder checked some Guardsmen. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

one of the things i noticed at the protest today: a *lot* of "Yes on 50" signs, chants etc. Whoever says there's no energy behind it just because the opponents have sent mailers out already isn't paying attention.
That smile! š„°š„°š„°
The United States had one of the worst COVID outcomes in the entire world from a body count standpoint. Anyone who argues with a straight face we were TOO cautious is an unserious imbecile.
The most vain man on the planet is avoiding his daily ego stroke in front of the cameras. You don't need conspiracy theories to see he's fucked up. But also, I'm sure the wild speculation, the jokes, are eating at him. Keep laughing my friends.

If you think I'm being a crass insensitive smartass about this now, wait until you see how I am if he actually does die.
Mineral Cup pro tip: Wait at least 12 hours before voting unless your favorite is involved. Or your least favorite. There's almost always someone who loves a mineral so much they bring pics and charts and pop culture. Enjoy the wooing, learn some facts, be an informed voter. #MinCup25
And oddly, in Australia the party is āLabor,ā but it would be the ālabour movementā when writing about union history!
If Republican politicians want to get serious about fair voting maps, they should join me in banning gerrymandering nationwide. Letās have a vote in the Senate. People deserve to know where their representatives stand.
As @vermontgmg.bsky.social observes, it's not just that the many red flags about Trump's health haven't become a news event like they almost certainly would have if Biden or Clinton were involved, it hasn't even become a news *story*: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/it-s-time-...
To state the obvious Harris chickening out of a second debate after faring terribly in the first would have been treated very, very differently that the "Savvy choice, sir" reaction that Trump chickening out mostly did

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.
Sicker than we imagined. I think itās another bout with Covid on top of whatever underlying conditions exist.
Ran the dishwasher at 7:30, unloaded it at 11:45. That was a productive as my morning got. I think Iāll plan on napping during the Giants game. Iām exhausted. Not sleeping well. Stressed.

To borrow from then-Senator Kamala Harris, #DudeGottaGo!
This is VERY. BAD. Russell Vought at OMB wants to rip away Congress' most important power, the power to set the budget, and put it in the hands of a president-king. This illegal impoundment stuff runs contrary to the most important principle of Anglo-American gov'tā

People literally bled & died fighting against corporate interests, robber barons, corrupt local & state politicians, cops & hired killers, & the federal government & US military for better working conditions for the rest of us so reflect on that today for just a bit while you're doing whatever else.
If youāre looking to replenish basics for yourself and/or family, JCPenney has a sale that ends today. See if you can find some savings there.
Maybe now the conversation will zero in on the trump immigration /ICE liesā¦specifically that he was going to arrest & deport convicted criminals. These are KIDS, not convicted criminals. KIDS.

This āblue states closed schools too longā narrative is becoming increasingly entrenched in the Polite Center but itās arguable at best. Republican states had far more deaths during COVID and their students have roughly comparable learning loss.
Someone out there is real interested in Democrats fighting each other, even when we don't want or need to.
