@Izzod@izzodlaw.com @AriCohn @questauthority I 2nd that motion, and come on stream to laugh in person

@AriCohn He reminds me of a middle-schooler with a crush on a classmate. Any attention from the object of his fantasies is enough. Maybe you need to tell him that you don't want to date him? /s :blobangel:

Some of you may remember that a little while back, some sleazy dirtbag FL lawyer by the name of John Ruiz was threatening SLAPP suits over on Twitter. And then claimed I was violating professional rules by swearing at him and that my tweets were not protected by the First Amendment.

HE FILED a 100+ PAGE BAR COMPLAINT BECAUSE I WAS MEAN TO HIM ON TWITTER DOT COM.

Needless to say, ARDC was not impressed, and dismissed it out of hand.

Friends, I am deceased.

A spark, a pure oxygen environment, design flaws in the hatch door…

Roger Chaffee, Ed White, and Gus Grissom were tragically killed on Jan. 27, 1967, when a fire erupted inside the Apollo command module during a preflight rehearsal test. #NASARemembers

Today I learned from @0xabad1dea that a lot of large solar farm owners use sheep herds to maintain their grass and they're called solarpunk sheep and life seems a little better. 🤘

@colorfiend I was going to add the Percy Jackson series (Rick Riordan) and I had many students who liked the Artemis Fowl series. Also a wonderful 5th-6th grade level book "Flora and Ulysses by Kate DiCamillo. That last one may be a little lower level but I laughed all the way through it on a field trip

In Antarctica, a long-watched rift in the Brunt Ice Shelf produced an iceberg about twice the size of New York: Iceberg-A81. 🧊

The iceberg, with an area of 1550 square kilometers (about 600 square miles), was captured by @nasa’s Terra satellite.

@Izzod@izzodlaw.com Okay, I'll go with unintended consequences :ablobcatwave:

@AriCohn Add 2 long-haired cats to that mix (formerly 3) and you also realize that pet hair should be considered a food group

@Izzod@izzodlaw.com @AustinB And what is truly sad is that every attorney in that firm appears to be female. That is shameful and I'm at a loss for words beyond that. The staff pics are super scary, too.

@Izzod@izzodlaw.com Well, it IS Arizona. Also they are the chauffeur for the children and need to be able to drop everything and go babysit. I like the line about the dog at home--I'll bet dogwalker and pooper scooper get added to the job duties.

@akatonyab I think the creators were on psychedelics at the time they created this! :ablobfoxhyper:

@akatonyab I've always thought that Animal on the Muppets was based on Bonham.

HEARTBREAKING: At least 10 people have been shot to death in a #MassShooting amid #LunarNewYear celebrations in #MontereyPark, #California.

The deadly deregulation of guns in America remains a clear and present threat to the public safety of every American.
