Gardener, cook, writer, physician, rescuer of old dogs. Aspiring shitposter. Lover of the ironic, the sardonic, and the generally unserious. I have faith in dogs and in soil biota. At this point, that's about it.

I didn't get it, so I sent you a message from my current discord account to make sure you were using that one. I am really looking forward to seeing it.

It's mystical and marvelous.

But for the folks who can't see mystical, perhaps give them an oversolemn interpretation like, "The bullock charging uphill as darkness inevitably falls represents the folly of human ambition..."

The humorless like that sort of thing.

1. Sen. Sheehy said proudly later "He came for a fight and he got one."
2. The press coverage is minimal and bizarre, with headlines like (Daily Beast) "Marine veteran appears to snap arm during struggle with MAGA Senator."

He, um, didn't do it himself, folks.

I would bet money that not a single LULS graduate will be able to pass the bar, and that Trump then tries to create his own bar association with the same pass requirements as LULS.

Don't forget: comprehensive health insurance for life for themselves and their spouses, and children under 21. No wonder they have no idea what the rest of us go through with insurance companies.

Tillis to Noem: "A 14 month old dog is basically a teenager in dog years. You decided to kill that dog bc you hadn't invested the appropriate training, then you have the audacity to write a book & say it's a leadership lesson! ... Those are bad decisions not unlike what happened in Minneapolis"

the same bros that think the US could successfully prosecute a land war in Iran think they could win a point off of Serena Williams at tennis

What would you have to be paid to sit through that?

Did you shoot them?

I mean, the times being what they are, we have got to start drawing a hard line.

I mean, my dog is uniquely splendid and unlike other dogs. Really.

Yeah, even if the doctor didn't make the decision to cancel, what the hell are they thinking to not raise the roof about it?

Don't put me on the spot like this! I was going to reply, and as soon as I read the second post all original thoughts went out of my head. If, in fact, they were ever in there.

So, uh, I could talk about my most recent Asian noodle dish...or tell you about my dog...

Yup. Gilead.
And you would think that the staff could've developed their scruples before she was in fucking preop and had the fucking IV in her arm.

We really do live in Gilead now. Every woman I know is scared.
