increasingly convinced it will take a horrific atrocity of some sort to get the mainstream journalist universe to realize what a catastrophic mistake it was to continue supporting Elon Musk.

@Green_Footballs They are permanently married to covering up. He could blow a town off the map and they’d praise him for his precision.

Kristi Noem has all the vast emptiness of Sarah Palin, but with puppy-killing just to take it to the next level. Apparently this is what the MAGAs want now.

@Green_Footballs Shooting wolves illegally from a helicopter gained for Palin a real ‘outdoorsy’ appeal. Real hunters were appalled but armchair types thought it was really brave.

Wait a minute

Toronto local news article posted today https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/equinox-bridge-toronto-waterfront-1.7195397

Star Trek "Strange New Worlds" s2e3, "Lake Ontario Bridge", claimed in a time travel episode to have been built in the 2020s https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/memoryalpha/images/4/47/Lake_Ontario_Bridge.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20230629223102&path-prefix=en

And if you have not seen video of Noem recording the book...oh.

Wow. She is an extremely unserious woman. An unserious woman who will lie and kill dogs.

What a fucking nut job.

@Hey_Beth Well, she does vacay in North Korea, right?

So, I had surgery.

All those food issues I’ve increasingly suffered over the last 3-4 years now appear to be the result of a bowel blockage caused by surgical scar tissue that has formed since 2017.

I nearly waited too long to investigate & I am so grateful my surgeon pressured me to let him do surgery.

He operated laparoscopically and WAS DONE IN 45 MINUTES.

I lost 120 pounds trying to solve food-related issues, but if I had not, this quick surgery could not have been possible.

@snarkysteff @SRDas You have been a beacon for those on here who are health minded and working to resolve issues that relate to diet, exercise. My friend who is scheduled for surgery, also lost over 100 lbs trying to sort out the issue. Her surgery scar was from a C-Section. (I had always been suspicious). So bravo and good on you. Here’s to your healing, strengthening journey walking into the sunlight!

@snarkysteff @SRDas I take great hope in how you have come through it all.

@Catawu@mastodon.social avatar

@snarkysteff @SRDas I wish I could say it was. It’s complex. But she will be in the hands of some of the top surgeons in the country, so, we’re all very hopeful.

I’m tempted to say about Kristi Noem’s career: that dog won’t hunt, but I’m concerned we need to then put her on a watch to prevent self-harm.

@davidaugust She hasn’t faked her own death & reincarnation yet, only because she assumes everyone but for her, is wrong.

Here’s my question: how predictive are polls 6 months out? In other words, is there any justification in talking about and measuring the election this far in advance? https://press.coop/@guardian/112388174243738656

@dogzilla @guardian They serve only to make the shows that opine on them more ‘interesting’ because they create stress and tension. They harm you.

Catawu,
@Catawu@mastodon.social avatar

@timo21 @dogzilla @guardian Exactly. Like reading a map instead of watching the road. Know where you’re going, make your plan and drive, dodging obstructions like “Polls/ Pollsters”.

Make a Note: The protests don’t become violent until the police show up.

The police also never arrest the violent infiltrators. Never.

Ergo: The police like the violence, create the violence, arrest the peaceful.

Pondering the parallels between the Christian myth of Adam and Eve approaching a tree with a snake in it and attaining knowledge of good and evil, with the snake and the gained knowledge seen as evil; and the Buddhist myth (new to me) of Mucalinda, meaning the Buddha also sat under a tree with a snake and there also attained enlightenment but here the knowledge so gained is good and the snake is seen as a protector

Could invent some really fun heresies by developing this line of thought further

@mcc I was kicked out at age 7 for asking “the wrong questions” in catechism. My older brother was kicked out too. I asked him why. He shrugged his shoulders and said: “For being related to you. What the hell did you do?” So, you could try asking a question they don’t like.

I was in a terrible mood, so I got churros, and now I'm in a terrible mood but I have churros, which is a strict improvement

@mcc Churros improves anything. If I was on Death Row, I’d order churros for my last meal and eat them in front of everyone. I’d die happy.

I read one of those "kitchen gadgets no one needs" articles a few days ago. The author panned the battery-operated salt & pepper mills especially those with a LED work light. The article was pushing manual grinders.

Just used my rechargable grinders with lights. No need turn on overhead lights. Arthritic hands also appreciated the electric grinders, too. TB fair the article allowed that arthritis was a reason for using electricity.

What do you think about lighted grinders?

@William3rd we are all differently abled. If it is something that will make a simple task less awkward, why not?

This would be a great deal for someone with need to build a garden bed, but the timeframes this person have in their post ("must be gone tomorrow", ie today) are RIDICULOUS (unless you live next door). Have you ever moved that much weight before?

Catawu,
@Catawu@mastodon.social avatar

@ai6yr Years ago, before social media, a neighbor had their entire house cleaned out. Someone posted a “Free Furniture! Moving Overseas” notice in the local paper, broke in, unlocked the doors… people showed up, 3 hrs later, house was cleaned out. Those free tickets to Disney World … (Pretty sure it was the ex who did it)

@DemocracySpot Mine always looked at me: “Make it stop”. Except for one. She LOVED getting wet and would run around in the rain biting raindrops and leaping. It was hysterical, and messy. (She was a lot brighter than you’d guess from this, but she loved all weather)
