I finally put this flag in front of the condo today. This post is in memory of Colleen Egan (1967-2025). Among your numerous good deeds was making me a fanatical Eagles fan. I am glad that you got to see the Super Bowl and the parade. Go Birds.

So did I. Ploy by his agent?

Neither job is particularly enticing. But there are only 30 of them so when you get the opportunity kinda have to take it.

Have one of these with you at all times.

I use Windows 11. Work projects that I do on my own laptop require it.

Windows 10 has reached EoL. What is your move? (if you're still on windows 10 ofc)

As I have posted on this site more than once I am a devout ex-Catholic. I know too much to ever go back.

My parents lived in Middleboro 2005-until their deaths (2020/2023). 55 and older development with over 1000 units.

Stunningly no Dunkin nearby. Closest at least 5 miles away.

Those people have no clue what Jesus' teaching are. Completely contrary to what they "believe".

They worship a false orange god.

Pick up in front of me a few minutes ago had numerous stickers on its back window including 1 for Jesus, a Confederate flag and a Cowboys star.

This is what we are up against. White guys with "skulls full of mush".

But he's a devout Catholic!

FTR I am a devout ex-Catholic. I like the current Pope and his immediate predecessor but I'm never going back. I know way too much from some of my legal doc review work. However I knew about this shit from other lawyers 30 some years ago.

I'm beginning to suspect this guy sucks.

Radley Balko @radleybalko.bsky.social · 8h

Fascinating. Politico notes that when notified of the texts, many state-level Republicans fired or condemned these cretins. Now Vance emerges to excuse the racism, and calls the reaction to it "pearl clutching."

He seems determined to purge the party of its last enclaves of decency.

My late fiancee said that we had to be "open and honest". My recovery program says we engage in a manner of living that demands "rigorous honesty".

So I know what I have to do.

The term "pussies" bring back a flashback to October 1977 at the hated Institute. FTR I was correct then. And I'm on the correct side now.

Thank God my son and son-in-law (both in their 30s) would NEVER engage in such "banter".

“Banter among college students”
One of these assholes is a state senator. The “Young” Republican group ranges in age from 18-40. Not just college students.

Berny Belvedere @bernybelvedere.bsky.social · 7h

“Banter”

SCC @scc1959.bsky.social · 1h

That's what I'm thinking. I really like her-but MAGA is an absolute no go. So is religious fundamentalism but I know she's not into that.

Hope his cell mate is a 6'5" 270 pound black guy who if not for a lousy upbringing and poor choices would be an Edge rusher in the NFL.

I do the 2 at the same time. 3 when I got my RSV shot-that's a 1 timer.

I haven't gotten a Shingles shot (actually it's a series of 2). I've heard bad things about its side effects.

I don't think our military is capable of winning a real war.

Just need a larger size (XXXL) and I'm in. Or I could go on Wegovy and lose weight by being nauseous as hell and not wanting to eat. Then at some point an XL would work.

Lisa @mladydwinter.bsky.social · 2h

You want one. You know it. You're helping good people do good things. Go Birds.

I’m not saying the Eagles would be doing better if we were selling more of these shirts.

I am saying you better not embarrass me at next weeks board meeting when I get to the “Merch” sales slide.

Yesterday I commented on a LinkedIn post by an attorney I've know for years and a response by another I've known even longer. But I did a good deed: I kept football out of it. Attorney A is a Birds diehard; Attorney B has had Giants season tix in his family since they played in Yankee Stadium.

Okay I've had 3 nice dates with someone-including an overnight at a "neutral site". Just 1 things gnaws at me-She is evasive about her politics. What should I do? The wrong politics are an absolute dealbreaker for me.

SCC @scc1959.bsky.social · 3h

Nope not into those. Especially if I'm at a hotel and with someone special ((The shower in my condo is definitely for one person only.).

SCC @scc1959.bsky.social · 3h

What is a military shower? FTR I was never in the military. I never even registered for the draft; I was in the 2-3 year window (born in the late 50s) when that was not required.
