For your safety, do not travel to the U.S. to attend the Olympic games nor the World Cup. Por su seguridad, no viaje a los EEUU. No asista a los Juegos Olímpicos ni a la Copa Mundial.

Say it with heavy gangster New Jersey or New York accent.

Amen Amen Amen!

“Robot dog guarding the data center” is the cherry on top of your dystopian sundae.

Never ask how low can they go. There is no bottom.

Woke up at 3:15 because...that's what I do. ☹️ It was 78⁰! And yes, the AC was turned on before bedtime. Also yes, it is still winter.

Some sad news. The nice man living quietly outside next to the downtown Cville post office, Richard Underwood, has passed. I know I would have wondered what happened if he were suddenly gone, hence the post. He was always kind and overly polite every time I spoke with him. RIP, Richard.

It looks like it may have originated with William Fralin formerly GOP delegate in the 17th District.

Well, I guess I'm not the only to have gotten this. I hope word gets out FAST how deceitful it is.

Extravagantly dishonest mailer on the VA redistricting proposal from "Democracy and Justice PAC."

Who is behind these "Democracy and Justice PAC" mailings out of Williamsburg? I can't find a thing online about them.

"In the next 20 years, I envision a Charlottesville region where affordable housing becomes the launching pad for economic mobility." A vision for the #next20 years by Sunshine Mathon:

Look, Know: apostates scream in the shadows while the mighty ABATERS (= ABBATOIRS) play one week from today. Flags of all nations turned upside down. Bring yr flash books, tattoos have been known to spontaneously manifest. Pareidolia of Catherine O’Hara. Sick choons, simple as.

Now Equador?

Republicans will do anything to block the will of the people.

Experts say that labor shortages could be enough to collapse the U.S. food industry. Here's what that means locally — and how changes in federal investments have impacted efforts to stabilize the industry.

I inadvertently sent previous post to one person instead of EVERYONE. 😂 my apologies. Topic: backyard murders ...of crows. CROWS! My little murder has grown from 2-4 to over 7. I'd like to give them more than just unsalted roasted peanuts. I added dry fruit today. Other recommendations???

Thanks to greaseball Keghead, I'm all awash in warm fuzzy feelings.

Back by popular demand

In 1974 we had a term for the withholding or unwarranted redaction of files demanded by Congress: “obstruction of justice.” ...

This was originally scheduled for Jan. 25th, but the endless ice tundra prevented it. Now it's happening this Sunday 3/1 at PVCC Dickenson Building.

Starting a war because people hate you is a way to have two problems.

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward capital.

I need fresh responses to a lot of the news. Yelling "YOU GODDAM FUCKING ASSHOLES!!!" at the top of my lungs doesn't have the kick it used to. Besides, the neighbors' patience is growing thin. Need some new cutting edge material. Help?

It's here - my long awaited copy of Darnell Lamont Walker's book "Never Can Say Goodbye: The Life of a Death Doula"! 1/?

Warms the soul to see Charlottesville High School students participating in a walk out and speaking out against ICE abuses today

Wow.

Yourself, but as a cartoon.

Anyone participating in the general strike tomorrow?

for my fellow southerners who have never experienced this problem before (northerners do not interact!!), if you're about to call your mechanic to get your alignment checked, try taking it through a carwash first, one that cleans the undercarriage & tires. my car had a lot of hidden ice buildup.

This is my brand of dark humor. Why not laugh?

New transcript: Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission | Charlottesville Albemarle Regional Transit Authority Meeting, January 22, 2026

I'm so mixed up. Sidewalk needs to be shoveled in 35 minutes and it ain't happening. Between the storm bearing down on the city and the fact that my best friend passed Friday morning, I've been a trainwreck. How great is the chance the city will fine me?

Feeding unsalted roasted peanuts in the shell to my murder of crows and hearing their beaks hitting the ice makes my face hurt. Eeeeyouch!

The first words that popped out for me were: "Stop using scripture like chloroform" and then I knew I needed to read all of it.

The bulk of the precipitation is done falling in central Virginia. Now, the cold will be taking over. Surfaces are becoming VERY slick.

the children are protesting from inside the camps. i hope they know that we hear them.

Two words: FUCK ICE!

It's a thing people!

ICE is Kavanaugh Stopping cops of color in the Minneapolis suburbs.

Being required to present proof of citizenship to someone not required to present proof they're actually law enforcement is one hell of a dichotomy

that’s right

That's crap! Any of the data behind a barcode can be changed faster than you can scan it. No.

Massive crowd in Market Street Park on a cold Sunday afternoon to protest against ICE. Organized by Indivisible Charlottesville and partner organizations, 1-11-2026.

Sign up to attend. Numbers matter

Temperamentally unsuited for these largely stationary days.The broken ankle is healing slowly, but I am looking forward to the day (hopefully soon) when I can let out a barbaric yawp at being finally released from these medical protocols and cleared to move unfettered.

Oh shit. What the fuck was that??
