'Advice from a 1918 suffragette pamphlet'
Yeah, you’re good, amigo.
It’s been sad this year watching how the White House press corps refuses to back each other up. Here a female journalist is insulted and denigrated and the next male reporter just moves on to a new question. You’re all in this together, folks. Time & again, they won’t stand up for their colleagues.
Wear a face mask when you go out in public- if for no other reason than knowing that they want you too sick, too exhausted and too burned out from dealing with back to back respiratory infections to speak up for yourself & your community. You deserve to protect your health.
NYT would be doing everyone a favor if they didn't try to dismiss this lawsuit and instead moved right to discovery. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
The only thing I have against Bob Vylan is only very slight resentment because their band name is perfection and I wish I had thought of it.
My band opened for Mammoth Hog at a show in the early 90s.
When people say "if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear." the correct response is: "I need privacy, not because my actions are questionable, but because your judgement and intentions are."

Dude, I can’t even take a train around the Atlanta metro area because by the time I drive to a station I could have just driven to my destination. It is very American in that our train system is, apart from, like, the northeastern corner, non-existent for passengers. I wish that weren’t the case.
We looked at taking a train from Atlanta to New Orleans and while I don’t remember the exact town where we would have had to change trains, it really was some place insane like Detroit.
What’s funny I guess is I had the TV series in mind when I was trying to confirm it. Movie #3 I had just completely forgotten about. Thanks for the correction, chief.
Well. Goddammit. I checked that photo two different places to make sure it was Weller.
It’s the follow-up to THE OMEN III that nobody asked for.

Worth remembering that any time I say "It's happening!" I'm realizing I’ve walked into a room and forgotten why I did so. And also that the trick where you go to where you were to jog your memory doesnt work because I’ve forgotten which room I started in.

I highly recommend folks go out and get a covid vaccine ASAP.
Especially for a series like that where there are 78 major characters, 46 major storylines, 1577 minor characters…for me 80% of working on that would be “Wait…isn’t he dead? Is he dead-dead or kinda dead? Or undead? Or…wait. Shit. He hasn’t even appeared yet argh”
Referring to a mediocre breakfast restaurant as your culture and heritage is one of the whitest things I've ever read.

Kim Davis going from "my religious beliefs demand that I don't facilitate a same-sex marriages" to "my religious beliefs demand that there are NO same-sex marriages anywhere" *should* make Democrats realize there is no "sincere" compromise with bigots on trans issues.
Wow, they named a whole area after Dean Cain

I'm really going to need every @npr.org and supposedly liberal news outlet to stop uncritically repeating this "tough on crime" narrative; fucking stop it
The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed. Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.
YOUR MISSION SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT If you're attending a SF&F/geek adjacent convention & if you encounter people cosplaying as War Boys from MAD MAX, it is a moral imperative that you walk up to them drinking coffee from this and see what happens. Report back when it's done. Thx. #cosplay

Tomorrow's Sonic Emporium will be a repeat thanks to a situation involving sinister pasta, ley lines, and a game of Connect Four that ended tragically. However, the new mixtape is still a thing, so I nudge you that direction for the time being. #music www.mixcloud.com/Widgett/sorr...
