move slow and repair things

Carpenter, Farmer (Oh crap, someone is going to try to recruit me to run for something.)

Raskin: “Based on what you know today, were Renée Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists?” Noem: “There's ongoing investigations…I would think you would want there to still be investigations going into these situations.” Raskin: “You stated [your] conclusion 2 hours after they were killed."

I’ve seen enough. Not about the election. Just generally.

Sometimes, when things are rough and the world feels heavy, it helps to imagine a future where we have crushed these sons of bitches and are left to the actual business of constructing a world that we deserve and is fundamentally kind and good.

If you know someone who is really great at running an RPG, you have got to hold on to them, you know? Carpe DM, friends!

We should remember to celebrate their reported nuptials by watching BOTH Zandaya’s and Tom Holland’s lip sync performances! youtu.be/1i5DEipIWh4?...

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

I read 11 books in Feb., same as Jan. I'll need to speed it up once the Nebula and Hugo finalists are out. 1. Brigands & Breadknives by Travis Baldree 2. Pathogenesis by Jonathan Kennedy 3. Time Loops & Meet Cutes by Jackie Lau 4. Building God's Kingdom by Julie Ingersoll 1/x #books #reading

With Random Cookbook # 9, I found what I think will be a new go-to weeknight recipe in Rachael Ray's Cowboy Spaghetti, because sometimes you just need something made from pantry staples that all three of you will eat. www.susannafraserstone.com/blog/cookboo...

Liberals, Progressives, America First Conservatives: WITAF SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO THEIR JOB AND STOP THESE POINTLESS WARS Schumer: Don’t worry, this letter is VERY strongly worded!!

We are at war for no good reason because we created a presidency with unbounded war powers and then elected a madman to it www.vox.com/politics/481...

cool that the two legal methods for removing the incompetent, incoherent, sundowning, criminal president are a) his cabinet, who are all worse than he is, or b) congress, which I'm pretty sure no longer exists other than to hold show trials

People say what's the point of impeachment? It'll fail. The War Powers resolution will possibly (probably?) fail as well, like the Venezuelan War Powers resolution. You push for both because both are required responses to the illegality we're facing.

It would be cool to have a legislature that acted to defend its own constitutional prerogatives and, maybe as a treat, the interests of the people it represents too.

There ain't a mirror big enough for this lack of self-reflection

So all of this is in a thread about a Claude tool someone built to link to NLRB opinions, and it's just such a massive misunderstanding of how law works.

This is murder. ICE routinely deposits released detainees far from their home just to be cruel. It’s standard practice. To do this to a blind man on a wet cold winter day in Buffalo is to know you are potentially sending him to his death.

Hey, so! This book that I wrote and that I love is now out in paperback!

The thing about the women’s hockey team declining the SOTU invitation is in part that sometimes, if you do not need certain kinds of power, you get to retain others.

Random Cookbook #8 featured breakfast for dinner (with homemade buttermilk biscuits!) from Good Eats 4: The Final Years. www.susannafraserstone.com/blog/cookboo...

Late to the party on this, but I’d do “1952 Vincent Black Lightning” by Richard Thompson. And if I could keep the magic long enough to perform at Holidays on Ice-type show, I’d add “Fairytale of New York” by the Pogues.

first they came for Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, and I said nothing, but i did laugh quite a lot

we couldn't use government funds to buy coffee (like, folgers ground coffee) when i worked on a CDC outbreak emergency response

Hemingway was once bet that he couldn’t write the world’s happiest short story in just 5 words. He replied,

MY REPRESENTATIVE FTW

Wow.

For Random Cookbook #7, I was tired and frazzled, so I just made some sweet and spicy cocktail nuts from Dorie Greenspan's Around My French Table. www.susannafraserstone.com/blog/cookboo...

Well well well, look what beauties arrived at my place this afternoon? It’s a sapphic sci-fi mystery! One could be yours! Pre-order today! us.macmillan.com/books/978125...

with alt text, because everyone needs to be able to read this 😭

Utterly unacceptable in a democracy. In a sane world, House Republicans would be drafting impeachment articles today and Senate Republicans would be preparing for a trial to convict and remove him from office

In terms of what cures are being lost: - Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis - herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis - shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

Every single time a story like this is reported, we must assume that there are many many more that do not.

i think this more than anything is what miller wants. vast detention camps with all of the suffering and death that means.

The problem with the Supreme Court supermajority is not just one of ideology or politics, but of epistemology. The world as they understand it bears little resemblance to reality www.liberalcurrents.com/the-supreme-...

Just imagining all the folks who’ll tell their kids they were in the Super Bowl halftime show that one time: “Wow, Grandma! Were you a singer? A dancer?” “I was a tree. I stood very still.”

Friends, that was NOT Liam Ramos at the Super Bowl halftime show. Folks need to stop spreading that false information. That said, the symbolism was clear 🙏🏽

THE HATERS SAID THE PATRIOTS COULDN'T DO IT. AND THEY WERE CORRECT. HONESTLY GREAT CALL FROM THE HATERS

the world is healing

Remember Seattle no jaywalking when swarming the streets 😂😂😂🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

SEAHAWKS!!!

It's a mystery why they wouldn't run my Super Bowl commercial for ShammAI, the only LLM that tells you that your question is stupid and you should be able to figure this out yourself

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit

Since Valentine's Day is approaching, I'm reposting some of my past Valentine's comics.

I'm sorry the guy changing the rules on the fly is named what

Random Cookbook #6 was Taste of Persia by Naomi Duguid, and I made a simple vegetarian dinner of sauteed mushrooms and white beans: www.susannafraserstone.com/blog/cookboo...
