If the earth were flat all the men would’ve gathered to pee off the edge already.

Shamelessly stolen from someone who didn’t add alt text…

Ugh, I’m so pissed off at my work. For weeks they were hyping up “Bring Your Kids to Work Day”, and I was all excited about it.

But then it turns out they didn’t mean “bring your kids and leave them there”! No, they expected me to take them back at the end of the day! Seriously!

“Bring Your Old Clothes to Work Day” is about dropping off stuff you didn’t want anymore to donate, but apparently “Bring Your Kids to Work Day” is about showing your kids off to everyone. Like, what the hell?! The only reason I still go to work is to get away from them!

Also, they called Child Protective Services on me again. ~eyeroll~ Ugh, what a week. 🤦🏾‍♀️

In short, Eastman's hostility to US democracy and to its endorsement of the rights of minority communities including the LGBTQ community, doesn't arise out of nowhere: it has a specific right-wing Catholic origin, an ideological center also shared by the group of Supremes who now control the Supreme Court.

But good luck getting the mainstream media to report on all of this.

I'm following the devastating news from Slovenia, where one month's worth of rain fell in 24 hours. It's the biggest natural disaster in the young country's 32-year history. Large parts of the country are flooded. I can't even begin to imagine the time and money needed to recover from this.

But it's hard to find non-Slovenian coverage of this disaster. Press agencies like Reuters and AP are reporting it, but newspapers in, say, Germany or the US aren't picking it up.

If I’ve understood 45’s argument, it’s that he found some lawyers who told him it was legal to overturn the entire election, which he really wanted to do. Then he spread lies about the election being stolen so others would be duped into helping him. So that means he’s…not guilty?

Sorry, that’s not going to fly, Donald.

British people, I cannot explain adequately what absolute hell the American healthcare system is. You know how people say: "at least in the US, you can get fast treatment. At least in the US, you can choose your doctor. At least in the US, you can get the most innovative treatment"?

Lies. All of it.

The US healthcare system excels at one thing only, and that's bankrupting people.

"Trumpworld’s unbounded view of free speech, if applied consistently, would eliminate most state and federal crimes. After all, perjury is speech. (That did not stop independent counsel Ken Starr from investigating Bill Clinton for it or the House for impeaching him over it.) Bribery is speech. Many types of fraud are speech. Insider trading is speech. Identity theft is speech. Forging checks is speech"

One of my cats jumped up onto the bed while I was leaning over to make it, and basically punched me in the mouth with his head. I have a (slightly) split lip with blood and everything. 🤣

My garlic had finished curing so I finished brushing off the dirt, trimmed the stems and roots, and moved them to the basement pantry. This is my first year growing garlic, so I’m very pleased at my collection. This is music garlic, my favorite hardneck variety. #harvest #garden #gardening #garlice
