The big birdbath: A pretty incredible 20 minutes of owl watching in our backyard on a hot morning. About 10 minutes of cell phone footage edited to posting length and MB profile. Beautiful barred owls. Possibly a mated pair.

I question her taste in men that's for certain but carry on....

We are here in velociraptor phase:
Good thing she's cute...lol!

Yeah that. Family Dollar built a small store about 2 miles from our house but we don't use them. The savings aren't there and a lot of it is junk.

Good article. I have a family full of NPDs some malignant. I can spot one in the wild almost instantly and I try to give them wide berth since everything about me pisses NPDs off since I was a child. But bosses and coworkers like family must be navigated. Seems there are more of them now sadly.

Too costly to open/run a small margin biz like grocery stores in our local villages. The closest full service grocer is 20 min away, 10 miles as the crow flies in a high cost, but non-NYC metro area of the state. In larger population areas we have Aldis, Costco, BJs that helps to keep costs down.

Yet should every sordid thing be completely true there was no premise of Hunter being meaningfully involved with the federal government unlike trump spawn who made bank & even worse now. Hunter sat on a foreign board & sold some paintings of dubious value in the face of massive graft. Idiotic times.

vintagecat.bsky.social @vintagecat.bsky.social · 11h

Voters were in the dark. I operated on the premise that Hunter was IMO a scumbag, that his father loves him but had huge HB shaped blindspot, that the entire story especially custody issues of the laptop smelled like 5 days old fish & timing was suspect as hell. That it was again "emails" pfft. 🙄

Connecticut. A gold plated food desert area. If we travel 30-50 minutes away it's cheaper but not by a lot.

Yeah same childless because my DH and I met in my 30s and our profession wasn't kind to parents at all particularly women so we opted out. We feel like geniuses now but I still worry about other people's kids and the world's animals.

He might have been saying four kids plus two adults, equalling "feeding six". Either way that's too many kids for his income level, yet that's what the religious nuts want for everyone.

And they want to strap everyone with a house full of hungry kids. Makes no sense except that the powers that be want desperate wage slaves until AI can replace us.

I estimate our monthly food/grocery bill to be $6-800 dollars a month for 2 of us, often more than that. That is using sales fliers, coupons & any store discount we can find. Little to no eating out. No seafood, beef, & very few premade or snack items. We're jettisoning boxed cereal now. Too costly.

A Republic If You Can Keep It @arepublicif.bsky.social · 14h

In the past month, a serial child rapist has murdered 100 people in the Caribbean, destroyed the East Wing of the White House, neutralized our Congress, & stolen food from 20% of American children.

We pay him, house him, drive him, fly him, and pay for his bodyguards.

It's hard to understand how people didn't see this well BEFORE he rolled his reprobate ass down that hideous gold escalator with his rent-a-wife. There was plenty of opportunity.

This and like blue cities they will invent a pretext.

I'm more on the deportation angle. Sorry Usha, you and the kids gotta go back to India.... She'll get a handsome payout to live in style and keep her mouth shut and she will because she's a grifter too.

vintagecat.bsky.social @vintagecat.bsky.social · 14h

He'll have her and the spawn deported. He married a conveniently "disposable" (in the eyes of MAGA) woman. They can make her go away when necessary.

This. They can't keep their foul beliefs and hatreds to themselves, they have to preach and convert. It's a cult and I won't have anything to do with those folks. They've lost their humanity.

vintagecat.bsky.social @vintagecat.bsky.social · 14h

It is. All but one sister are essentially dead to us. When people ask about family (plans for holidays) we say that they are mostly all dead or live very far away which is true in every sense.

It won't be murder in that case though no doubt the powers that be will frame it that way.

vintagecat.bsky.social @vintagecat.bsky.social · 1d

Vance will invoke the "unequally yoked" biblical clause to ditch his brown Hindi wife/kids (who he CLEARLY resents & may even deport) for the "christian" Ayran ideal. He'll inherit the TP platform giving him indy wealth as his "reward" for his part played. IMO Kirk's murder was an inside job.
