My decoder ring arrived! I now know where to go to get my Soros check, my Antifa uniform, and I absolutely 100% will be standing in our usual protest location on 10/18. Last time there were 2,000+ I am guessing more this time.
Most of my non-white friends won’t go. They are afraid of being targeted.

Thanks, Chris. The support is appreciated.

It wouldn't be quite as scary if we had many years left on us, but the boat's in the harbor, and there is no time for a new voyage. "God laughs while man plans", is real.

I hate to ask this question, but could you do better out of state? Like moving? It’s a troublesome thought.

Simeon Brown tells young jobseekers to “get a paper run” on RNZ this morning 🙀

He is so out of touch, he thinks neighbourhoods still get a daily newspaper delivered

COVID was the first to take our retirement. We caught up and figured we could make it on one house a year. Nothing on the horizon. Nada. No one is getting calls. Ironically, customers are 99% wealthy and MAGA. Seems their fingers are checking the wind, too.

I am so sorry. That is a one two punch no one expected.
I’ve started a few companies. Some successful (yay) and some not. The time when nothing is coming in and payroll is about due is flop sweat stuff. I cannot express my sympathy for you enough 🤗🤗💔

Job occupations, from an 1881 census. Every one of these sounds like something a sorely provoked Captain Haddock would should at someone in times of heavy stress.

Save the tall ones for us tall girls.

If you’re between 5” and 5’3” you don’t NEED to be with someone 6’1” or greater! You could have them 5’6”-5’10” boys and still be good; heels or not!

Return them tall kings to the Amazons where they belong! 🤣 (Jokes; don’t come for me)

AmeriKraut @inchargeofthegirls.bsky.social · 12h

for some reason, it never occurred to me that i at 5'3 would actually look small to someone say, 6'3 - 6'6. this is actually absurd.

BREAKING: Marco Rubio's State Department announces publicly that it is exercising unconstitutional viewpoint discrimination in revoking people's visas based on comments about the killing of Charlie Kirk.

The United States has no obligation to host foreigners who wish death on Americans.
The State Department continues to identify visa holders who celebrated the heinous assassination of Charlie Kirk. Here are just a few examples of aliens who are no longer welcome in the U.S.:

Why isn't the ICC issuing arrest warrants for the orange rapist and the DUI hire?

They're murderers. This is murder. This makes 27 murders.

Also, Donald Trump is a rapist.
