Lone protester this morning between Dockside bar and Popeyes with a large sign saying “bombing speedboats is murder.” Lonely vigil on one of the main routes to Naval Station Norfolk.

Besides the point, but damn, Epstein wrote like shit. It's nearly unreadable; it hurts my brain deciphering that shit.

Reminder that Ken Starr was canned by Baylor University for covering up multiple sexual assaults when he was the school’s president…

What you want from a functional, thriving superpower is every reporter in the country spending all day combing through a cache of documents that all say, more or less, “hi [rich ruling class person], it was good seeing you last week for all the child sex crimes!”

Christmas tree throwback picture for no reason whatsoever 🌲

Jeffrey Epstein being a “this email is confidential” guy is such a great little detail.

For anyone in need of a reminder, they're not protecting women's sports, they're policing them.

this is an abuser’s wet dream.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

no question that hegseth hates guys with beards because they make him feel insecure

Great shot. Wondering what it looks like out in Edgewater. The Norfolk VA Aurora Borealis consists of light pollution from the city and the stars are aircraft coming and going from ORF or the bases with a background of train noise. I love this city but sometimes I miss the calm of AACO MD 🦀🦀

"British officials, deeply aware of their obligations under the Law of Armed Conflict, quietly stopped sharing information more than a month ago, fearful that continuing to do so would make them complicit in what the UN’s top human-rights official, Volker Türk, has called extrajudicial killings."

This is either a gallery of obliviousness or a lineup of unapologetic indifference and I’m not sure it matters which. (1 of 2) Senators Durbin, Kaine, Rosen, and Fetterman

I have to hand it to them, it's an incredible bit to publicly lose a game of chicken, admit that's what happened, and then spend the next day lecturing everyone about courage and tenacity

Oh, well fuck, the last thing these people would ever want to do is "something shameful" Ladies and gentlemen, we got 'em!!!!!

look I know being an engaged citizen IS the work of democracy but it is also the work of elected officials not to create situations where everyone has to be mobilized all the time to prevent them from allowing some kind of Dickensian horror on a Sunday night while you're in between loads of laundry

Delightful detail from the Roman “unswept floor” mosaic by Heraclitus, showing a mouse nibbling a walnut. Superb use of darker tiles for subtle shadow effect! 2nd century AD. Vatican Museums www.museivaticani.va/content/muse... #MosaicMonday #Archaeology

Anyone who knows anything knows that stadium was full of furloughed and excepted federal employees. Everyone around here is a fed, is married to a fed, is a relative of a fed, or knows a fed. Trump has shit on federal employees and continues to do so. WTF did he expect?

Took this picture the other night while having a totally legal trashcan bonfire. Was tossing out old paperwork and newspapers and I wish I was quicker with my camera cause this shot says it all. Full headline: OBAMACARE PREVAILS

Senator cave in Kaine™️

Chuck Schumer is not made for this moment. I’m not sure what moment he is made for, but it’s sure as shit not this one.

"you're a doomer" No, I've read the books and I know how this ends. Being very objective about the reality we face isn't being doomer. It's being terribly realistic in a world that tends to repeat the same mistakes ad nauseam.

They also made a card for the hot beekeeper who came to the rescue

Norfolk, never change.

Heard from a few former coworkers that my previous company will be taking scheduling out of the hands of managers and done entirely by AI. Getting asked for references so they can switch companies. AI is 1) costing money to implement 2) affecting retention 3) not helping sales. Great job everyone👏👏

If you've never been, totally worth the trip.

HAPPY FOUR SEASONS TOTAL LANDSCAPING DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE

25 years ago today: the most consequential presidential election of my lifetime. 36 days later, it was effectively decided by the Supreme Court. Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, who voted with the majority, would later she regretted that the court accepted the case.

Quite a headline.
