That would actually be more f'd up.
Oh, how I know what you're going through. Recovering from injury an that strained my knee & the only two pet/house sitting gigs with stairs called me to stay 2 weeks in a row. By the 3rd day at the 1st job I was going up the stairs on my butt, straining my arm muscles. Hope you get some relief soon.
Yes yes yes. Those old Maytags only have about 5 parts and anyone can fix them. I salvaged an old one and did the repair easy- peasy.
I rescued an old Maytag -- no electronic dashboard -- years ago and repaired it all by myself and it worked fabulous for 10 years. I gave it to a friend when I moved and I'd bet it's still going. I now have some brand no one's heard of and it looks strangely like the old Maytag. It works great.
When SOME Boomers leave their wealth to their kids.
It's not Boomers doing this. It's selfish, old, rich folks. 60 years ago we said "never trust anyone over 30." That's still true. This Boomer continues to live a life of voluntary poverty, understanding that many many of my generation have become poor because of these same people.
What if he has the Epstein files? He would need to be taken out. This is exactly how I would write the script.
Not so much an alibi as a sympathy grab assuming any of this is actually true. After all, it is Rudy.
In 2020 these same twits called them face-diapers and lost their minds over wearing masks. So NOW they need them to protect themselves?
I spent my life rolling around other people's shit
Guy is brain-fried and ego-overloaded.
Potters especially should know these things. Glazes are a particular hazard. Anyone working with pigments -- paints, pastels, watercolor, dyes (plant and mineral) -- need to know the dangers. Art can kill the artist if we don't know. At the very least they can make us sick and damage our parts.
Got this set many years ago and I still love it.
Tough call: Stay away & allow them the power to keep you off the streets or go & risk being overpowered by their gangsters. It's not easy to make these choices & neither is good or bad. Just know that heroes often have advanced detailed plans for many of their actions & arrests.
Union organizing talk is common here, & I'm for it, but this tale of the unrestrained upper ranks is common, because when we fail to fully participate in elections, the opportunity to be a grifter is too much for most humans. This is how we got Trumped. This is how the IUOE got Callahaned.
I just did a search... I may do more.
Best use of AI to date!
CDC scientists receive a heroes welcome after walking out today.
A good number actually have.
Of course, but just finesse the final product branding and you're golden. Berry basket, small salad rinser, sifter.... Be creative in hiding the truth about clay shrinkage. 😄
more of this type of stuff, please
A good actually have.
Pathetic, but then spectacle seems to be what The People® want.
Long as yer trippin' everything will be OK.
Love a good pottery colander. Mine's a small berry size and it has a place of honor on my counter.
So happy you've got something. Not enough, but some better I hope.
Yes.
So, do continue to do nothing. Got it. I'll get right on that.
Step 7: Repeat
?? Isn't that why we go to NYC? To be looked at? Also, what a whiny wanker.
Wish I were there.
DO NOT PUT CHILDREN ON TV TALKING ABOUT A SHOOTING THEY JUST LIVED THROUGH The media who do this are heartless bastards
What a survivor. The world can be so brutal, no matter how many feathers we have.
It's not enough just knowing they're right?
Why would you think you have to? There's nothing in what he does by showing up. It's literally his job.
Martyrdom is only a good thing Catechism class. What's the point of him showing up if he's not listening? I'm missing all the reasoning for and about him showing up.
We never recover from these losses. The hurt seems so fresh for the first 10 years, give or take. I hope you can find some comfort in the good things he gave you while he was here.
What if we paid people what we're paying Guards to pick up trash? What if a living wage helped reduce crime?
For all the dog lovers. This is a classic. Worth seeing again.
Surely there's interior design styled furnishings!!
It's painful to ❤️ this, but thank you for posting it. We need to pay attention.
HELPLESS MAN ATTACKED BY A PACK OF WOLVES
Agreed. Super rich people having cute and wonderful expereinces make me want to kick a puppy.
Nope. Christ never said that.
I will eat cake tonight in honor of your birthday...whenever that is.
Just put your fingers in there and scoop it out. No shame!
Nope. Democracy is already a thing of the past.
Roosevelt only hired imtelligent women. She would never hve had the chance to fondle his ego in public.
He actually looks like someone is massaging things under the table.
Then you're either not bright enough to have this convo or you're a troll. In either case I'll leave you alone.
Cite yer Red Letters.
All US Americans should have full functioning unions in order for better wages. Immigrants taking jobs is BS. The issue we all need to be concerned about is employers hiring people that cannot make demands. Project 2025 --the power behind the throne-- will make employees criminals for organizing.
That chain was my giggle-point, too.
Yes.
Great. Except it's not fiction. Everyone is screaming. 😉☺️ Flash "reality check?"
This! This this this. As a biologist who's worked on sex differentiation endocrinology, THIS! Even in really carefully genetically similar populations like Wistar rats.
It's a risk I'm willing to take. I will not insult you for beleiving that; in fact I will defend your right to that. My complaint is that I don't need to be harassed and legislated with what you believe. If I'm condemned that's not on you.
1. shunning 2. Inquisition 3. Women's citizenship status 4. Salem witch trials 5. Blue laws 6. Women's healthcare 7. Childhood nightmares 8. Family connections broken over varying doctrines Shall I continue? Because these are just the big ones that come to mind before coffee.
Not lost. They just don't care and knowing what's really in there messes up their world. It's inconvenient to know.
Trouble with this? There are actually 613 commandments and these 10 were cherry-picked because they were the easiest to use as recruitment tools. Most believers can't be bothered with studying the books they hold onto so they let someone else translate and tell them what's said in the texts.
Agreed, though this post isn't about being better than them. I'm not a beliver in gods, but I do believe that not all humans who think different than me are the enemy to be purged. However, I will fight for my right to be left alone by anyone who knows with certainty what I should think, do, or say.
Among stories about airplanes and scariness in Europe is an interesting AP story about the MGGA-- Make Germany Great Again-- in 1937. Do with this knowledge what you need to.
In the US everything said implies white, upper middle class, able-bodied, and under age 60.
So that's who has the Epstein files.
It's not paranoia if it's true.
Gone to his "reward" I hope.
Indeed? Next?
Bullying has been shown to cause victims to run for office.
Hopefully, Stephen Miller will again be stuffed in a locker.
Those people aren't Left extremists though. They're ill informed arrogant jerks when they try to score points with public humiliation while thinking they've deflected their own faults. Our culture is losing social skills and we're all to blame. That's not a political stance
Jesus. That's the answer to respond with. It's not my thing, but for anyone asking that question 9 of 10 says it is. WWJD?
No, but I promise that scarier people than him are reading Bluesky and sizing up the things. However, they're not here for the advice and thoughts of sages.
Is it merely convenient that this is a Black woman who is being accused of fraud when the Feloni Chief is trying to take over our money? There will be no coup d'état. The takeover has been ongoing since 1980. Now they're just housecleaning.
Piece is being written, a draft has been requested in response to the pitch, so. LFG?
I've targeted Target and pretty much everything except the grocery store. Too poor to actually boycott. That takes a certain economic privilege to choose not to buy somewhere.
I remember Target when they were like a low end Kmart. For the children, these were cheap IRL shopping places, more like "dollar" stores. Seems they're going back to their roots.
True. And most of us discount the implications of it. We need to stop being the problem and figure out how to be better.
This is an opportunity to do something.
Ha. Absolutely look up images. You can't unsee and perhaps one may be radicalized by it.
BREAKING: A federal court ruled that Mississippi’s Supreme Court district lines must be redrawn to ensure Black people in the state don't have their voting power diluted.
He thinks she's not MAGA enough. He should go back to over fishing the ocean.
Every organization ever.
Black women face an uphill battle in the workplace. They are hyper-visible and invisible. They are promoted and then dismissed. They are disrespected. Constantly. This is what is happening to Representative Nicole Collier. This is #TheDoubleTax.
Yup. We need to support those who can and will do the hard things. Mostly we need compassion for everyone, especially ourselves. Make art. It'll keep us from regrets.
Been out there a couple weeks, has it?
My point is, we live in a society where porn is free and healthcare is unaffordable. See you in church.
Right now I'm not sure what I would risk myself for as I haven't fully accepted that this situation won't turn around. if it does I might still be unemployed/in jail & forgotten as everyone moves on. I do know that if any of my neighbors are threatened I would go out of my way to defend them.
True. Will Bluesky pay my rent if I just do the right thing? Sometimes the ability to make that choice is yet another privilege of the comfortable classes
My teachers (1966ish) started the lesson with "some owners were bad..." WTF ...maybe the 60s were when we were great ?
Having worked a chapter as a photographer, I'm guessing it might have been for something like that, but who the heck really knows. Maybe he wanted a golden ladder and someone misunderstood?
Make no mistake F47, people are talking about us and you.
I need more history quizzes.
Where do we send donations? This is the sort of spectacle Rs don't want, but definitely need. What did we learn about bullies in grammar school? Laugh at them, duke it out with them, but NEVER capitulate.
I support this message.
Humor is powerful. If nothing else happens we get a few laughs and as long as GCN is continuing to work seriously offline then I'm here for it.
Most fun on socials since the Steak-umm blasts on Twitter.
Ya. The titty-posters are driving me nuts. I block & report, but they keep on keeping on. Probably not much can be done except go the Meta route and use nonhuman, block everything systems
"If you're rich they let you do it."
