@CountBinface Remember when Truss got out the car at Q Elizabeth’s funeral and the newspeople thought she was an official from one of the colonies? That was funny
I'm on a private email list with a bunch of really smart, well-connected (currently and previously held office or work(ed) w elected officials, WH, incl. Obama, Biden, consultants, advisors). One said this, in part: 1/...
It will make no difference whatsoever if #Trump is banned from the ballot in #Colorado or indeed any other blue state. All the matters is whether or not he is banned in a red state or in PA, WI, GA or AZ, ie one of the battleground states.
Of course the Colorado Supreme Court decision enters uncharted territory: the country has never before had to deal with a major political party intent on nominating an insurrectionist oath-breaker as its candidate for U.S. President.
As we approach the end of the year, wouldn't now be a good time to FINALLY DUMP THAT BOX OF OLD CABLES AND CHARGERS THAT YOU'VE BEEN HOLDING ON TO FOR TEN YEARS "JUST IN CASE" ?!?!?
It's ok. You can let them go now. You're going to be fine.
Retailers are getting more bold about where they place ads! I was going to buy something online from Lands End and went to pay, selected my card ready to send them money and do you know what they did? They put up a pop up ad! You can’t complete the transaction until you hear a pitch from “hello fresh” and “do you want to apply for an apple card?” etc. (I have pretty robust adblockers at home, is this how people live now?) Of course, I canceled the purchase.
@futurebird I was thinking of ordering a thing from them, thanks for the warning — up there with Amazon’s forced [ LIVE CUSTOMER REVIEW VIDEOS! ] when i just want to scroll a list of toasters 🙃
I just got a complaint about my #photography posts, which I concluded came from a troll, but perhaps I’m actually coming off in a way that rubs people the wrong way here.
The complaint was that by posting high resolution images and describing in detail the processes used to create them, I’m merely “showing off” in a way that isn’t useful to most people.
I indeed do rather niche photography, using relatively esoteric gear. I think some people are interested in process and enjoy the results.
I'm such a weirdo, that at one point, I was going to get a bunch of long frames, frame segments of The Bayeux Tapestry and put them in order all around a room.
One GOP source tells me #JimJordan’s team “doesn’t fucking understand numbers” worrying that with some members leaving town they could end up with #Jeffries being elected speaker.
I'm not gonna tell anybody how to live their life but if you have a going-out hoodie and a staying-home hoodie you can worry a lot less about shit like "oh no, does my hoodie have mustard on it" when you go out.
A boosted "Hey it's getting dark and I'm getting blue, help me out with Seasonal Affective Disorder tips" post reminded me of how I deal with my own seasonal affective disorder, so here, a small thread.
Here's how it works for me: my brain tells me to be sad in winter and happy in spring. But, my brain is a gullible little noodle, and I can trick it into thinking it's summer just by shining a bright light at it. So, light therapy lamp!
EXCEPT: light therapy lamps are very expensive. If I'm to spend money on my brain, I'm going to do it the cheap way AND the silly way, and build a smegging light therapy CANNON
(edit: haha this angle makes my wrist look REALLY WEIRD lol noodlywrist)
