astounding that through legal jiu-jitsu the trump admin has managed to fall ass-backwards into an unimaginable scenario where only people they hate and who hate them got food stamps

oops somehow my sons halloween lift-the-flap "paw patrol" book they got trick-or-treating somehow fell into the recycling bin

i kinda like how apathetic everyone who works at target usually acts. they dignify that place the proper amount

There’s still no evidence that Trump knows what a dog is or does

huh weird. idk when it happened but the scar from my c-section is just... like... gone? i guess it wasn't a scar after all

Severance (of car parking in Paris)

going to try growing pansies from seed this year instead of buying starts, that's one of the last few things i buy starts of because every spring i'm like I CANT STAND WAITING I NEED PLANTS i don't even fucking like pansies

it's a great day, just like every day, to check that all your smoke alarms work

remember grimes lol

hey why won't my sons sit still and watch cartoons and are instead demanding books be read with them. is something wrong with them

a perpetual motion machine but it's just my sons eating a limitless mountain of blueberry ricotta pancakes

it's good for young children to be exposed to as many weird smells as possible. helps them develop their brain i wager

I’m sorry but no one is doing it like her

once again the only people who signed up to bring a dish to thanksgiving are the cousins including myself with multiple young children and zero free time. god forbid the single people or retirees hop in here

still no updates here

my small sons get a lot of correspondence because their mother makes them "write" to their elderly relatives who write back and i'm thinking maybe they need a little play mailbox on their bedroom door i can put it into?

A long and comprehensive opinion, but this jumped out at me: The judge accused the Federal Protective Service—which was called in to suppress the protests—of lying under oath to slander the regular Portland police.😬 DOJ recently admitted that other FPS claims in this case were objectively false.

A federal judge Friday issued a permanent injunction barring President Donald Trump from deploying National Guard troops from any state to Oregon, finding the president exceeded his authority. www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/1...

"At least as it relates to the protesters at the Portland ICE facility, Antifa is an “ideology” and is “shorthand for ‘anti-fascists.’”

SOMEONE TELL ME IF THIS MEANS YES OR NO AAAAA lol

trying to teach the lads the first poem i ever had memorized because my mom taught it to me bat, bat, come under my hat i'll feed you a slice of bacon and when i bake, i'll make you a cake if i am not mistaken

so is the judge planning on ruling on the national guard in portland sometime in the next uhhhhh 18 minutes

The chaos of this whole fucking thing is UNHINGED. Some states have already started to distribute money! Some people have gotten the payments! Is he going to demand they TAKE THE MONEY BACK? like what is going ON

It’s a tale as old as time: a young and competent progressive versus an old rich man who once pulled a gun on a pregnant woman over a disputed parking space

i cannot believe how tight the election in seattle is, this is wild. it's going to come down to like 200 people. to elect the mayor of SEATTLE! not some cow town. SEATTLE

Mathematically, if Wilson maintains this vote spread in the remaining votes she would be elected the next Mayor of Seattle.

Listening to this meeting is excruciating as TriMet acts like they need to meet with every single business and have everyone be happy and satisfied before they can move forward with a very basic transit service upgrade!

i love making indian food and opening my container of asafoetida and remembering that all over the world wherever people have used it they've named it some version of "the devil's shit"

the ghost has got the monkey by the tail and all they both can do is wail

hey what's an easy to use website with a short URL i can put in the printed thanksgiving invitations to direct my relatives to sign up for a specific dish from a list i input to bring so they don't duplicate one another

DEMOCRATS GET ON TELEVISION AND TAKE CREDIT FOR SAVING THANKSGIVING RIGHT NOW OH MY GOD

people on the local reddit are saying they all got their SNAP benefits paid onto their cards late last night but nobody knows if the feds released that money because the judge ordered them to or if just oregon figured something out or what happened

did you know the Mountain Goats have a new album out today and you can buy it or stream it and dance to it in your living room or while driving or on the subway and it's a whole vibe? well now you know that 30tgrs.ffm.to/ttfafpb

BG: my friend said a bad word Me: oh what did she say? BG: she said “I’m a fuckhead”

what if the star trek transporter is horribly horrendously painful but the designers mercifully put in a forget-me-now feature so nobody remembers the agony and repeatedly subjects themselves to it voluntarily

Dale Chihuly, having retired and dropped off the grid years ago, is at his secluded mountaintop cabin, chopping wood for his glass-blowing furnace. A helicopter is heard in the distance. It comes closer. It lands in his yard. A high ranking army officer steps off. They have one last job for him.

(fun conspiracy time!) Remember when he said he wanted to visit Fort Knox? All these chotchkes are made from that gold and he's made them ugly so he'll be begged to take them with him when he goes. "Oh, you want me to take all this gold decoration with me because it's ugly? Well, if you insist."

what should we do with all the weird temu gold leaf decorative flourish plaques and stickers and stuff he's shitting the oval office up with when he's gone? we could just throw them in the landfill but maybe we can think of something funnier

Good writeup here.

my smaller son has learned to say, when confused or surprised, "what the-"

real untapped market here for electric blankets that aren't hideous plastic garbage i'd be ashamed to leave on my couch

Truly think there are some bands you just cannot emotionally understand unless you live in a place with WINTER, and top of that list are Low, the Weakerthans, and the Microphones

who wants to see a cute little seastar and his friend the jellyfish

the only funny auto-correcting twitter account was the one that replied to people talking about bone broth with "it's also called stock"

those people who love to smugly say "there's no such thing as bad weather, only bad rain gear" i dare you to say that to my face today. this is bad weather. i don't care what you say this weather is objectively bad
