If I take Tylenol while on active duty with my antifa regiment, does that make the offense more serious or nah?

HHS can't even spell the name of a common painkiller. Worse, they just added a second post with the correction. They don't know about either the Edit or Delete features. www.facebook.com/share/v/1BsZ...

Our favorite brand of coffee is out of stock at our local supermarket. So it begins - the tariffs are working! Can anyone recommend a brand grown in the USA? French Roast if they have it.

American football place-kickers should watch a rugby kicker convert a try from near the touchline, where there is barely a visible gap between the posts. Eat your hearts out. You will probably see the feat at the women's rugby world cup final between England and that rugby powerhouse, Canada.

It's a shame that Charlie Kirk's widow and children are left to mourn him. It's shameless that she used her first media appearance to bash the "radical left" and immediately turned to mass grifting with big red "DONATE" buttons.

Is there no "fascists of TikTok" account that can rummage through X, take postings out of context and report the poster to their employer? Is there no "melissamurderers" website? Let's stop being fair.

Dear MAGA, what you gotta say now? #Cowards #Hypocrites

Charlie Kirk is being referred to as a Christian. The sort of Christian who thinks Leviticus supersedes Matthew.

Right wing: Charlie Kirk was pioneering a respectful issues-specific discussion across the ideological divide. Also right wing: Every Democrat murdered our hero!

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

Since the goal is clearly to create a wartime emergency in time for November next year, isn't this a little early? Or is renaming the DoD, and trying to provoke Venezuela into retaliating, all part of a project plan drawn up by AI?

This is *after* the new head of the BLS had a chance to play with the employment numbers to make them look better.

Were the Epstein files on that Venezuelan ship?

What's so special about a barrel full of crackers?

Not in Leeds.

No ICE No fascism. Worcester MA. #worcester

I'm so glad I retired from Office (10 years ago!) and didn't have to be associated with the statement "if your app isn't in a high-stakes scenario, it's perfectly fine for us to fuck up your spreadsheet".

OK, I may have a degree from one of the world's greatest universities, but here I have to admit to the depth of my ignorance... Who the fuck is Dean Cane???

Why does Vance want to go through the effort of stopping women voting? In his world, they will only vote as their husband tells them, which would have no effect on the vote. (yes, that argument against female suffrage was made in the British Parliament)

@therealhousefinch.bsky.social , serious question. When the last chick has left, is it OK to remove the nest, or should I wait for winter? I do plan to hose down your decorations on the floor of the front deck.

The last chick, was just trying out its wings.

Finches are ready for first flight.

Shouldn't that be Drive Up and Stop?

The house finch chicks outside are front door (there are four) are growing fast, and their parents are using chick poop to grow the nest accordingly. Recycling!

What the f*** is NESN Multiview? A special for their ADHD viewers? It's horrible. #redsox

We came back from 3+ weeks away to find this outside our front door. Maybe 3 chicks. Looks like a finch, and another time I saw a male house finch alongside. I did catch feeding time but from the back only. We'll see if they make the nest roomier with chick poop (a finch thing). Small pleasures.

I watched "Conclave" on the plane (BA). Two hours I'll never get back. The secrets, the intrigue, the conservative/progressive calculations, a great Ralph Fiennes performance, all destroyed by a rushed, absurd final 5 minutes. But a 2024 Prom performance of Daphnis and Chloe was electrifying.

Tagging @johnbrooks.bsky.social

Release the Rockford Files!

The pro-private-car Secretary of Transportation is from... one of the more dangerous places to be driving.

Say a prayer for the unnamed people on the other side of the El Salvador/Venezuela swap.

In Thaxted. Last time I was here 25 years ago I was distressed at the decrepit state of the organ Gustav Holst had played. Good news: the town had it restored in 2014. The keyboards are locked up, but still... #classicalmusic

Brace yourselves. There are plenty of Democrats, not just Clinton, and Democratic-adjacent names in the files. We'll have to wait and see how effectively they edit Trump's name out of them.

A pilgrimage to Little Malvern. Gerontius has a special meaning for @jeanniebrooks.bsky.social and me. #classicalmusic

(me, a wise centrist) the pendulum swings back and forth, from woke college kids policing pronouns at oberlin on the left to a literal gestapo renditioning people to torture prisons on the right

We all understand the reason for branding Mamdani as a Communist, and trying to make it stick, right? It's the only prima facie reason under Title 14 for summarily revoking his citizenship.

@mclem.org, IANAL, but reading the statute under which they claim the authority, the only reasons to pursue denaturalization are (a) "illegally procured ... naturalization" or (b) be a member of/act for a proscribed org or engage in anarchy or sedition. I don't see how fraud etc even remotely fit.

A serving US Army major has *disobeyed a direct order* and condemned the transgender ban in a NYT op-ed. Although he is religiously conservative, he says objecting is the moral stance. He is about to retire, but this could cost him dear. More like this please. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/30/o...

There's been a of misinformation about the birthright citizenship EO. It's bad enough, and badly flawed, but it only applies when (a) the mother is unlawfully or temporarily present in the US + (b) the biological father is *not* a green-carder or citizen. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential... 1/

Please don’t let the blatant racism cause you to miss the irony of @repandyogles wanting @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social deported because he claims he lied on a form — chef’s kiss perfection 💋

Non-resident mother in delivery room. She asks the staff "are any of you guys citizens?" One raises his hand. She points and yells "He's the biological father!" One logical consequence of the EO is that every father of a child born to a NR mother, even if her husband, must undergo a paternity test.

The new anti-vax CDC ACIP is meeting this week with a preconceived bias against vaccine safety, and particularly the effects of thimerosal. Don't tell them this is still on their website. www.cdc.gov/vaccine-safe...

I WANT THE NOBLE PEACE PRIZE NOW NOW NOW! OR ILL STAMP MY FEET AND PUT AN 3XTRA 47% TARRIF ON SWEDEN! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

MAGA last week: no foreign wars! MAGA today: Bomb the rag-heads again! MAGA next week: Yea foreign wars! Sweets and flowers! Just send someone else's sons.

Kerning has not yet been invented.

Did #DOGE roll out their promised complete overhaul of the Social Security software yet? It was supposed to be done around now. Or will it take another #TwoWeeks?

Amen.

Read it! Read every word! Forward it to your representatives, saying you know they have seen it, but so have we. Forward it to every MOC in a marginal (i.e. R+20 or less) district.

Last night was especially annoying because (a) Devers hit the winning run (b) it was unearned.

OK, I ran an ephemeris program. At my home in Massachusetts, today (June 20), counting sunrise to sunset, is longer than tomorrow (June 21). By 0.232 seconds.
