I’ve lately felt inclined to opine on shit a lot less. I still read who I follow and I still occasionally check up on the clusterfuck my country is becoming.
I’m keeping more of my energy for longer fork writing and I feel like skeeting can take away from that.

Normally, I’m irritated by politicians doing this as a photo op. I would’ve preferred he’d done it without the cameras, but he’s earned enough good will in my eyes to see this as more than a political ploy.
Combatting poverty and hunger in this city will take every single one of us. Myself included.

It could be a good thing in the long run. Democrats have to run on Medicare for all next term.

As a general rule right now, the DNC should have a lawyer for every Democrat in Congress. It will not stop with six.
MS NOW confirms: The FBI is working with Capitol Police to schedule interviews with the six Democratic lawmakers who urged service members to refuse to comply with illegal orders.

We are so going under the bus again.
1. After the shutdown fight, Republicans promised Democrats a vote on extending enhanced ACA subsidies, which cover 20 million Americans.
Now, new reporting shows that Republican negotiators want to make a trans funding ban a requirement for the extension.

Republicans Privately Pushing Anti-Trans Funding Ban For ACA Subsidy Deal After Shutdown Compromise
The proposal, which was first detailed in the Wall Street Journal, could harm transgender people even in blue states if it becomes part of the negotiated deal.

So are we going to war against Venezuela on Thursday?
Kind of weird to say you support the troops and then deploy them right on the holidays when we aren’t under attack.
Seems like something only an asshole would do.

Also don’t rely on the cloud or email. Those can fail too. An external dive or or pen drive is what you want.
Unsolicited artist advice of the day: if you're a freelancer with no back up devices or storage, remember to pick a few things up in the black Friday sales. Even a pen drive to back up your projects so if you have a catastrophic hard drive failure you wont lose everything..learn from my mistakes. 😅

Hegseth did not think this through. Shocker, I know. You’re going to try and court martial a former fighter pilot and astronaut? Good fucking luck. You may have just given Kelly a platform for a presidential campaign.
Hegseth is now threatening to recall Sen. Mark Kelly to active duty in order to court martial him.

Be thankful for migration attorneys when the family goes around asking what everyone is thankful for.
It's almost Thanksgiving! Got an ICE member coming for dinner at your house? No you don't! Can't stop them because you're not the one hosting? No problem. You can shun them, mock them, shame them, cough in their food. They get the weird chair. No weird chair? Make a weird chair.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

More right-wing figures are criticizing Trump’s economic decisions, foreign policies, and continued handling of the Epstein files. Some in right-wing media are declaring that the Trump-centric “MAGA movement” is “dead.”

Bone spurs don’t keep him from ballroom dancing. Weird right?
It is particularly galling that Trump is calling for the execution of people who actually served honorably in the military, while he took a bone spur exemption and famously boasted that his Vietnam was dodging syphilis in 70s New York.
Just a historically loathsome figure by any measure.

What this judge wants to know is how badly.
It’s going to run into a “executive foreign policy power vs judicial oversight of domestic law,” at SCOTUS.
To rule against the judge means they lose power too. I don’t think they will.

Why stop at congress? Should presidents or members of SCOTUS be allowed?
No lawmaker in Congress should be able to buy, own, and sell individual stocks. Period. Let's make Congressional stock trading illegal.

Just spent the last five hours taking my pc apart to put in a case I bought half off this week.
I got all fans working but I can’t tell if I have the AIO running right. Will have to investigate more this weekend.
I was all AuDHD hyperfocus mode all evening. Felt good.
