Can’t stop thinking about the horrible waste of valuable resources if he forces former allies to build up their militaries to defend themselves against us. i have given up on trying to control our own.

Most of us had our humor sucked out of us on X before we escaped to Bluesky.

Somebody forgot the white sheets and pointy hats.

Why is there some much tedious discussion of X on Bluesky?

What’s the point of moving to Bluesky only to spend your time talking about Twitter?

At least Nixon had alcohol as an excuse.

That is some ratio in his comments. I hope his staff tells him that since I doubt he looks at them.

With all due respect 🙃 this new season just confirms that her character is a total idiot who cannot see the actual ocean of duplicitous bs she is swimming in. But it is fun unless you are a woman who wants some autonomy and control over her life.

I wonder the same thing about community smoke from controlled burns and agricultural burning of fields and burn piles. I live in the Rogue Valley in southern Oregon and controls on both have been loosened so much that they often create as much smoke as a large wildfire.

Hunching low next to the car at the Walmart gas pumps so I don’t get shot by the DC sniper. What a year!
