Well, that's the fucking question, isn't it, Senator?
That's a nope from me, dawg.
Do we really lose an hour of sleep, or do we get to go to bed an hour early? I know which I'm doing.
According to the BPU outage map, there are six homes without power in KCK. Mine, of course, is one of them.
Looking forward to Hegseth not being able to figure out how to turn on the translation headphones at The Hague so he just sits there listening to the guy read off all his crimes in Dutch
Got literally a minute (and two seconds?) Check out the teaser trailer for Wolf Moon. #YA #paranormal #kidlit #booksky
It looks very tech and ominous, but also clean, legible, and contemporary.
We managed to get back to sleep pretty quickly after we came back upstairs. Felt pretty lucky about that.
I've never seen anybody who wants to be called "Sir" so badly that he calls himself "Sir" all the dang time.
This is beautiful!
@kshb41.bsky.social was the only station that had the warning updated on their website. KMBC and WDAF had us still in a watch. Not even remotely confidence-building.

Introduce yourself with four spaceships.

Well, as far as we know anyhow, ol' Markwayne never shot his a dog. That's all I'll say in his favor.
That's what I meant by usefulness. And kids, especially, love bookmarks!
I held the record for being the smallest surviving premature baby in the city of Houston, at 3.6 lbs in 1960.
Got an email from @davids.house.gov for my opinion on the attack on Iran. I clicked on it. It was a radio button question about House priorities, none of which mentioned Iran. In the end, it was asking for data and a contribution.
For the record, we should not be invading Iran. That's my opinion.
Happy, happy birthday!
How dare those little girls try to kill the president! What a terrible social studies project!
Referring to himself as "Himself" is a choice. I'm blocking him for that alone.
Claiming to be doing something--anything--without mercy doesn't seem very Jesus-like to me. If Jesus is someone you claim to follow.
I am almost 66 years old, and I was in college during the fall of the Shah, the Iran hostage situation, and Reagan's election. Pretty sure if we'd been at war with Iran for 47 years I would have noticed.
I just spent seven weeks in Floresville, Texas, and I could have told you that was a foregone conclusion. Blargh.
Oh, wow. That is so tough. Glad you're on an upswing now. #kidlitchat
I had a busy quarter! I finished a manuscript, and I finished editing another one, got it formatted, and worked with my graphic artist to get the cover moving along. #kidlitchat
