Started my day the @grouchyjohnscoffee.bsky.social way.

This is a big reason why Seattle didn't back down for tonight's Pride match in the World Cup, which was planned for over a year before Iran and Egypt were chosen to play it. They've spent months trying to get us to stop it, but we wouldn't back down. And as a Seattleite, I say, not sorry, not sorry.

Holy Fuck! QOTSA just dropped a BANGER of a performance! youtu.be/GL-IgEkms8Y?...

as seen on the way to work.

Somebody showed up and tried to tell KCL that because she is white, she had everything handed to her on silver platter and has never had to work for anything in her life. Needless to say, she fired up the woodchipper.

Feminism is not a gender war It’s an accountability movement.

Tears down my cheeks, I'm laughing so hard.

Everything more civilized than "The one with the biggest club gets to do what they want" is due to government. To tear government down is to endorse dog-eat-dog, might-makes-right competitive anarchy. Just so we're clear on where we're heading.

new Supergirl movie is uneven, but I found it entertaining.

There have been more J6ers re-arrested after being pardoned than there have been instances of voter fraud in past decade www.rawstory.com/trump-doj-26...

It's raining!

@shaenon.bsky.social you have all my sympathy and support.

This explains so much.

I am DYING laughing. youtube.com/shorts/bFvb2...

I have to admit, I've been enjoying watching those Mormon Mafia motherfuckers who own Bricks & Minifigs hang themselves with their own rope. youtu.be/ybPr39iC_xI?...

The hubris, the braggadocio, the stupidity, the incompetence and the inevitable failure - the Reflecting Pool fiasco is the perfect metaphor for Trump's presidency...

Surely following the news that Jeffrey Donaldson has been found guilty of child sex abuse charges and rape, there will be an outcry and protests tonight in the streets of Belfast? Funny how all of the protect our women and girls pages on Facebook are awfully quiet isn’t it? #Speirgorm

Today is the birthday of African American science fiction author #OctaviaEButler. The winner of numerous Hugo and Nebula Awards, she was the first science fiction author to receive a MacArthur Fellowship. #💙📚 #Booksky Have you read her work? www.librarything.com/author/butle...

The Las Vegas Goddess Temple needs some help. The pump went out on their well. It's a $7k repair. www.paypal.com/donate/?host...

Preparing for the ceremony. #Solstice #GoddessTempleLV

Blessed solstice to all who celebrate

Yoda is not out of fucks to give @grouchyjohnscoffee.bsky.social

Won't say where, but went to a local bar and asked for a glass of red, got poured a white, decided "oh well" and took it thinking "how bad can it be?" It was fucking Sauvignon Blanc, the wine I despise. #Facepalm

the party favors at The Center's Stonewall Riot Rage Fest are painted bricks

This should concern all of us. What is your institution doing to preserve collective memory?

At the Center LV for a great show of some local queerpunk bands. #Pride #PunkPride

pete hegseth is engaged in open racial discrimination against black officers. the clear message is that there is no place for black or women leadership in his military

Meanwhile, over on X... "Facts Are Stubborn Things." — John Adams #TrumpSurrenders

Habitual lying is the culture of the Republican Party. Even the most absurd, preposterous lies are pushed daily to gullible rubes.

HAPPY JUNETEENTH!

161 years after the events of Juneteenth, in cul-de-sacs, on city streets, and in the halls of Congress, racists are still working tirelessly to silence people of color in the name of saving America... johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/racists-ha...

Happy Juneteenth. May we all soon be freed. (Oh yeah, that's going to be an international holiday.)

I don't care how fully entrenched the brain worm is, I bet if RFK Jr. thinks *real* hard he can still think of examples of gun violence that date to his childhood.

Dear russian oil industry, We regret to inform you that Ukraine has reviewed your long-term development plan. And declined it🔥

Just heard a Russian whining how she needs to leave Sevastopol now because ‘she lives in fear 24/7’ Honey, you should’ve thought before invading Ukraine in 2014. Sevastopol is not yours . Crimea is not yours. Your army of murderers , looters and rapists

"To be united by hatred is a fragile alliance at best" Which explains both MAGA and the Cult of Social Justice.

This is why I bought my kids fountain pens before they came of age. Better to learn how to use them safely than to suddenly be thrust into a world of stationary stores Pilots and Sailors and Parkers and Watermans and shelves and shelves of ink and notebooks.

I will never get tired of watching Dan McClellan demolish homphobes, racists, and sexists. youtu.be/7oMOiS_cMKI?...

Very interesting court case. We'll see what happens upon appeal. But, I like this reasoning: the AI makes its own claims that don't appear in any linked source, and the operator has to answer for them.

My student worker curated this great Juneteenth Display!

Wagging Tails Rescue is run by kind people who found immediate placement for a lost dog in my yard this morning. waggingtailsrescue.org

I'd love for these two to go over to Belfast and tell the Protestant gangs setting fire to people's houses that they want to be Irish.

"Unionist paramilitaries want to be Irish and want Ireland back" might be perhaps the stupidest take on this situation possible.

Picked up my first Faber-Castell fountain pen on my trip to Germany for about $26. The EF nib is much more an Asian EF than European. It's so fine it's a little scratchy. But other than that, it's a great pen.

As much joy/hope/something to look forward to as the VGK are giving us during these times of turmoil & stress, noted philosopher, Bryzgalov, is correct when he said, "It's only game, why you heff to be mad?" Now, let's all apply some sunblock, go outside and touch our water-smart landscaping.

Well, shit. VGK lost. Today's Tarot Draw was the 5 of Cups, so yes, I spent the day waiting for dissapointment and loss.
