If you don’t want someone to beat and rape your daughters, maybe you shouldn’t do that to someone else’s daughter.

Why does one of his attorneys look like Marcia Clarke in the 90s.🤔

@lkngrrr Nope. It was bad then, and I don’t even know who performs that service these days. She had to look hard! 😂

In a civilized country, the city crew cutting down the giant tree in your yard would have said something to you. Knocked on the door. Asked if you needed to get out of the driveway or something. No words have been exchanged.

I guess the city tree cutters went to lunch because they left some of their stuff here. I’m afraid if I leave the house, I won’t be able to get back in my driveway.

@jinglepostman All I’ve learned from this chapter is that it never turns out the way it should.

While I’d love to be excited about this jury, the last 8 years have proven to me that I shouldn’t be.

Donald Trump has wasted many hours, days and years of our lives. He’s the nightmare that keeps on giving.

@Danetteb Exactly. And, everyone is scared to say something because of money. I’m tired of this shit.

The city is cutting down a giant dead tree on my front lawn. I put in a request last year and it’s happening. Yay!

StillIRise1963,
@StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

@paulc No, it’s free. If the tree is within some specified number of feet from the street, it’s their responsibility. On our own, we had to remove 6 trees because they were dead. We found this out when a 10 ton tree fell and hit the roof. After this one goes, we should be safe.

it's really fascinating how flat the lies and denials coming from the US are falling. The time when this stuff worked is over. Now it just reads like someone telling you that you hate kittens. It's just a nonstarter and they look unhinged.

It would be to their advantage to think about how this makes them look, day in, day out. But they don't seem that concerned.

@InternetEh Yep. When you’re an African American, this is how you’ve felt your whole life and you can’t figure out why people here and outside can’t see it.

My child just sent me a text about a book by a white guy named Sam Forster who said the following:

"Last summer, I disguised myself as a Black man and traveled throughout the United States to document how racism persists in American society.

Writing Seven Shoulders was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done as a journalist.”

Ummm, WHAT???

@paninid I don’t think everyone read this back then. But, the point is it’s now.

After speaking with CVS🙄 , I’m on hold with my insurance company trying to get a prescription filled one week early since I’m leaving for a month. They want me to pick it up the day I’m off to the airport. NOPE. wtf.

@crazybutable It’s so unnecessary. No one wants to steal fucking heart meds.🙄
