Subdivisions: where they cut down all the trees and then name the streets after trees.

FFS. The system is broken to the point of defaulting to *abusive*. Please share/help as you can.

Guess they've changed it to the America First Amendment.

Anyone surprised that the KKKops aren't arresting the Hatriot KKKunts for marching without a permit? Anyone?

Hatriot KKKunts are just afraid to speak their minds where people might be able to see exactly what kinds of twits are spewing that assclabber.

Gotta love how so many self-appointed I Am Very Smart people online apparently believe that *any* response to their smarming is automatically "strident" (or, and let's be honest, Mean to Their Perfectly Innocent Selves). The thing they're "missing" is simple: don't start nothin', won't be nothin'.

In a just world, Cynthia Rothrock would be 10x as famous as Steven Segal and Chuck Norris combined.

And on this day, be especially careful when you see

Please, please, if you're eligible to vote, please vote. I'd rather lose because people voted for other things than because no one voted at all. And please, consider October Daye for Best Series. The poor woman's been through enough. Make me explain her from the Hugo stage.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Not Zapp's!

I find the lack of treats disturbing

Today is the 250th anniversary of Boston’s mass inoculation against smallpox on July 3, 1776. The city was effectively closed to commerce from July through September 1776. The mass immunization effort was cheered as evidence of true independence. Here's how I described it in my book:

JEAN/LARRY 2028

"I'm Catturd." "I'm Libs of TikTok." "I'm Gunther Eagleman." "I'm Ian Miles Cheong." "I'm Andy Ngo." "I'm Adrian Dittman." "And my name is KIIIIIIIIIIIIID ROCK!" All those stories plus an old video of Jordan Peterson totally destroying a woke college feminist. Tonight on 60 Minutes.

James said it best.

I'm not even gonna bother justifying e-reading to snobs. I will call them the unreasonable gatekeeping assjacks that they are trying to be and keep reading. Fuck 'em. Let 'em find LEGITIMATE shit to be pissy about.

Larry is providing solidarity and moral support for his buddy. BE LIKE LARRY. DIG RANDOM HOLES WITH FRIENDS.

The reason I'm *glad* all of our cats just sorta happened to us: I could NOT go to a shelter to pick one, because I'd have to get that cat, all the ones looking interested AND the shy ones in corners.

Yup. Give it statehood and make Congress, the Whitey House and SCROTUS an internal "federal district."

Oh, good to know; I'd already rebooted my computer, thinking it was bogging down on my end.

Days since my brain was involuntarily polluted with horrifying images: 0.

"But I'm not ON the keyboard!"

here you go!!

"As far as I'm concerned, that's America's hammer!"

Twin Cities! This lovebug is behaving exactly the way my dearly missed cat Gabe did in the shelter, where his shelter name was Loudmouth, and he was one of the finest cats I've ever known! Somebody go adopt this chatty gentleman in Gabe's honor.

I doodled the secretary bird wearing jorts because that’s what my brain saw the first time I looked at it and now I can’t unsee it
