Yes, Everton got absolutely wiped. Yes, current politics are not aligned with my preference. Yes, my dad hardly recognizes me and is on hospice.
But I just made the best turkey gravy of my life and so all is ok. I accept the healing power of the almighty bird. 🦃

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

Somehow I always do four passes of deodorant on the left pit, but then when I switch to the right I get an overwhelming desire to do 6 or 8. I have to mentally steel myself from going beyond 4. Everything else in my borderline OCD world is even...except the pits.

I am really digging SDC. I forgot how much fun frontend can be.
I'm still terrible at naming crap, but at least is nice and tidy.

Is it better to be sad or angry?
With sad there's no blame. But is that being mature, or naive? With sad there's acceptance, but no resistance.
At what point does fighting become futile, and at what point does acquiesce become complicity?

Muskawamy are claiming they will cut $2 trillion in government spending, and 75% of federal employees. Are such numbers feasible?
No, unless they absolutely gut state capacity and the safety net. 🧵

Banning malicious IPs is a little bit like voting; it feels good when you do it, but in the end does it really matter?

Hi everyone.
The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.
We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.
We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.
I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

OK, here's my first attempt at the kind of thread I used to do on the hellsite. At a guess, the first place we'll really see the economic impact of Trumpism will be from mass deportation — and it will be worse than many people, even macroeconomic modelers, imagine 1/

That feeling when you are off work so go for a morning walk on a brisk, breezy fall day and then log in to #Stardew where it's also fall.
Press 'e', turn the volume up a tad, and sip some coffee.
