Deleting this account soon. It's been beautiful meeting so many good people in one place.
Social media time, and screen time in general will be drastically reduced for a few years while I sort out some personal situations, and get back to more time in the outdoors. Any of you who got to know me will know I'm still in the fight, gloves off, keeping it real.
Won't forget you, and I'll find yinz if I return to Mastodon some day.

From this article: Remember this guy? Somehow escaped prosecution 20 years ago on another scandal, so he comes back to be Ohio House Speaker. Last summer he was sentenced to 20 years in prison for more Huckery Headlines.
Commander #MikeJohnson is treating the #HouseOfRepresentatives like his own private #church. He calls meetings to address legitimate government business, and spends 2/3rds of the time preaching from his #Bible, and butchering history to craft Biblical rationalizations for his predetermined agenda. The People's House is not a goddamned church, or a venue for #Christofascist pigs to inject #Christianity into our secular government.
Heated up leftover minestrone soup, poured it over crinkle cut fries which are from freezer to toaster oven to plate.
Made it all nice and neat as I wiped the edges as if I'm serving it in a 4 star restaurant.
Should be cooled to perfection, so time to sign off, and turn on the TV lol.
Y'all remember when the Russians hacked BOTH the DNC and the RNC? Does it also seem like most Republicans are unable to criticize Russia? Anyone think maybe these two things are related?

Never had student loans, and I also am happy for everyone benefiting from the forgiveness of loans, and empathy of Joe Biden.
This will improve the lives of more than the people who are weighted down with education costs.

Scott Perry, the deputy secretary for the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection's (DEP) Office of Oil and Gas Management at the time:
"Over 3 million gallons of the brine were spread over roads in the northwestern part of the state in 2014. "It doesn't have to be treated," Perry says." https://www.newsweek.com/oil-and-gas-wastewater-used-de-ice-roads-new-york-and-pennsylvania-little-310684
This is a nightmare of cancer cluster maps in the near future:
“There’s a clear tradeoff in that breathing dust has its own environmental problems,” said Burgos. “Dirt and gravel roads produce an air quality problem. We have to make sure that the trade off with respect to the potential production of a water quality problem is worth it.”

#Ukraine’s security is our security. As allies, the UK & US fight aggression. We stand up for freedom. We stick by our friends. And we win. I urge the #Congress to continue its proud support for #Ukraine’s fight against Putin’s aggression.
I am calling out the #TrumpStooges in Congress as Putin-owned #traitors who support overthrow of our government.
#MagaMike and republicans' open fealty to Putin, a hostile foreign intelligence agent, who is one of the most infamous cold-blooded killers in human history & wanted war criminal.
Mike Johnson & republicans are blocking a bill that would supply ammunition to #Ukrainian soldiers, despite the widespread support in Congress and support of the American people. Showing the world that Republicans are anti-American & disloyal traitors to our allies and our constitution.
@skykiss
Mr. Johnson uses an app on his phone to track his own, and his sons masturbation. Not a contest, which would be creepy AF. Instead it's to discourage masturbation, which is also creepy AF.
These peoples phones, and all devises are Hucked six ways from Sunday.
The kompromat ripple effect likely resembles rain on a scum pond.

Republican business owner (Shark Tank's Kevin O'Leary) warns New York State, ("a loser state") that if they continue to prosecute fraud, business fraudsters will flee to Texas and Florida for lower taxes and less regulation.
Me: Yes, they are so desperate for your money in the 4th most populous state that they will excuse your criminality as the cost of doing business with you. /s 🙄
Also Me: hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah. (stops for breath) Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
@Urban_Hermit
Kevin O'Leary laughed at some people on Shark Tank because they wanted to keep all manufacturing of their product in USA.
That was the last time I watched a minute of the show. Kevin O'Leary is a big part of our problems around the world with pollution, and deregulation is his wet dream.
@flexghost
Desperate narcissist with propagandists beta reading/editing.
Shitler was no doubt quickly overwhelmed with jealousy of the attention Navalny is getting as a hero of all decent people around the world.
Shitler has zero empathy. His only reason for putting himself in another persons shoes is for wishing the spotlight was on him instead.
The rest of that dribble is to stoke violence. He wants the useful idiots below his current level of useful idiot upper echelon to step it up.
#RIP: My beloved cat Sam died of kidney failure last week.
We spent 11 years together and he helped me survive some of the worst years of my life. He was so much more than a pet—Sam was my best friend and a great companion.
Like I told him often: “I love you Sam, now and always.”

💔Sorry for your loss Rob. Our furry and feathered friends make life better for us, and we give them plenty of love for the short time we're blessed with their presence.
Greedy narcissists are the easiest puppets crafted from kompromat. Trumpelstiltskin always wanted the tallest, biggest, most expensive, and when he failed at anything it was blame, blame, blame, and stomp his feet like the petulant child he will always be.

These incels arrive in town and depart in a vehicle. The police know who every one of them are. The locals know who the corrupt cops are, and don't need Columbo to figure it out either.
Somebody is likely paying those useful idiots to help provoke a violent response.
Then the crying out how they are victims provokes more violence.
A small religious hate group was completely ignored in Pa. last year as they tried the same grifter stunt. They haven't been back as far as I know.
@flexghost
There has to be a permit issued for this bullshit to happen correct?
One would think if a noticeable decline in tourism $ followed those permits being approved the business owners would be carrying some signs at the courthouse.
When the money slows down in your town, the chamber of commerce gonna be looking around.
When a pattern of less $ develops in multiple towns, some bigger toes are being stepped on.
Those haters don't march on dirt roads in the woods. They want visibility.
@Resister
Yep he was likely selling a decent system for the day, and his adding too much filler to the list of benefits didn't fly. The homeowner is more of a "Just the facts please" type of person.
That was during pre-fracking days. Now every home in that area on a well has to filter. I moved lol
