Hey #RVA, prepare for some below average cold heading our way this weekend!

roses are red some wolves are dire

Teddi Fishman, a Democratic poll greeter at a precinct in reliably red Hanover County, said several voters expressed support for Democratic governor nominee Abigail Spanberger this morning, which “surprised and encouraged” her. More on #ElectionDay in Virginia: virginiamercury.com/2025/11/04/e...

'Twas how I found out!

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

These dogs were spotted taking a group photo in their Halloween costumes. We're impressed by the dog walker's dedication to getting the shot, but that ghost definitely wishes he could actually disappear. 14/10 for all (TT: franklinbarkzoo)

Poverty is a policy choice that is often based on a false premise that poor people are lazy and/or made choices that led to being poor - i.e., they "deserve" it. Not saying that never happens, but for the majority, the cause was something beyond their control, an accident, illness, layoff, etc. 1/2

Cobra Chickens incoming!

Started saying mucho to my Spanish friends. It means a lot to them

Never become so old in your soul that your heart forgets how to laugh.

Ironically, Mike was standing on B♭ when the truck hit him.

The Onion is so damn good.

LOL. And Elijah looks like he's cosplaying Phineas Flynn.

Please, won't you be my neighbor?

Just got a text inviting me to a Brian Kilmeade event in #RVA tomorrow titled, I shit you not, "History, Liberty & Laughs." How TF did my number make THAT list?!

Invest #94AL forecast is a mess! Models split between US landfall or out to sea. Hurricane #Humberto's outflow and altered steering flow will either help push 94AL northwest into the Southeast coast, or pull it out to the Atlantic at the last minute. FL to Carolinas: continue watch this closely.

GET IN THE CAR! WE NEED BROCCOLI NOW!! FLORET!!!

Eels weren't just an English thing; Scotland has an eel history, too! Famed 14th C. king Robert the Bruce loved his eels. Too much, maybe. His doctor thought the king risked his health by eating them, as eels live in "muddy & corrupt waters." Did the Bruce care? No. He did not. 🗃️🧪

My right bum cheek got raptured. The other is... left behind.

Who cares about optics when Q4 is just around the corner, amirite? FFS, corporate America has completely lost all understanding of human psychology and how it drives consumer behavior.

Serenade for an absolute unit. ❤️ @themerl.bsky.social

Timeline cleanse!

Melania was cosplaying as Carmen Sandiego. Of course she was hiding her face.

Our community theater is doing a production called "The Dictionary". It's a play on words.

Representative Jason Crow (D-CO) on this moment. Not just the transcript but the video of a floor speech yesterday. A rallying cry:

Gov. Youngkin mobilizes VA National Guard today. Early voting begins Friday. This cannot possibly be a coincidence.

Previous generations fought fascism in nearly every corner of the earth. Today it’s on our streets, silencing opposition and attempting to control the airwaves. The GOP has declared all out war on free speech. It’s up to us to fight for it.

We firmly believe firing comedians is not a sign of a healthy democracy. In some countries, they even elect them to defend against ambitious fascists. — PM Tuxley II

The clitoris has over 8,000 nerve endings. And it’s still not as sensitive as a white Republican man.

Out of the Nazi playbook. Classify "others" as mentally ill & lock them up. Said the same about neurodivergent people. One of their mouthpieces advocated killing the homeless because they're mentally ill. They want people to disappear. Believe them. @markwarner.bsky.social @kaine.senate.gov

Let me rephrase this for Rep Massie: They don't want to prosecute adults who SA 14 year olds, so they're lowering the age to be prosecuted as an adult to 14 so they can claim a 14 year old is an adult who can consent to sexual activity. And get married, which is the next logical step.

“There is no where in the Bible where we are taught to honor evil and how you die does not redeem how you lived. You don’t become a hero in death when you are a weapon of the enemy in life” ~Pastor Howard John-Wesley of Alfred Street Baptist Church In DC #CharlieKirk (🎥: Etan Thomas)
