I dk how many people here have websites they're serious about but stop goofing around and ditch GoDaddy.

Congratulations Australia! The people have crushed the fascists. The Labor party’s PM Anthony Albanese has secured a second term in office in an election wipeout.

The push back against the Trump / Putin aligned global regressive movement continues strong.

Once again...
Picture of Howard Zinn with the quote - "Civil disobedience is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience. Our problem is that people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of leaders. Millions have been killed because of this obedience. Our problem is that people are obedient all over the world in the face of poverty, starvation, stupidity, war and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obediently filling our jails full of "petty thieves while the grand thieves are running the country. Thats our problem.

A woman called a child the n-word and has raised $500k on GoFundMe but we’re supposed to believe the assault on diversity, equity, and inclusion is about merit and erasing Black history is a coincidence?

No. It’s anti-Blackness.

France is ready to hold fast fashion accountable with a new eco-label. But the EU might stop it and push a weaker system shaped by big brands. Join the action to protect people and the planet 🌏❗ action.wemove.eu/petition/202...
End fast-fashion’s impunity!

A riff on the Last Word and the Paper Plane, this one was new to me, but an instant favorite. Naked & Alone. (I don’t think it’s related to the reality show!) Equal parts Aperol, Génépy (in lieu of Yellow Chartreuse), Mezcal, and lime juice. I didn’t have a lime for the twist garnish. Try it!!
A light orange tinted drink in a coupe glass sits on a black bar mat. In the background, it is surrounded by the bottles of ingredients: Aperol, Mezcal, Génépy, and lime juice. I love an equal parts cocktail!

Sucks to be you, small businesses
Trump: “Big business is not worried about the Tariffs, because they know they are here to stay, but they are focused on the BIG, BEAUTIFUL DEAL, which will SUPERCHARGE our Economy. Very important. Going on right now!!!”

Geiger Capital on November 9th, 2024 tweeted: “No one other than (fairly stupid) partisans on the left thinks Trump is truly going to implement 20% tariffs on everything across the board.”

The Last Word. ‘Nuff said.
Slightly yellowish cocktail in a clear rounded coupe with a brandies cherry barely visible through the drink. Sitting on a bar mat with the tools and bitters of a home bar visible in the background.

Some days you just wanna get waked up and f-ed up. “Dick Bradsell claims a famous supermodel walked into the bar and requested a cocktail that would ‘Wake me up, and fuck me up.’ “ vintageamericancocktails.com/espresso-…
An espresso martini in a coop glass sits a top of cork coaster that’s on a round wooden table. In the background is a home bar and beside the drink is a book, ready to be enjoyed.

Happy Monday! This was going to be an omelette, but then I got distracted, and the eggs went too hard, too fast. So now it’s just kind of scrambled eggs mixed together with omelette stuff. Still very tasty though! #foodie #hotBreakfast #Foodstadon
A sea foam green triangular plate with scrambled eggs , onions, mushrooms, peppers, and bacon mixed together into a single serving rests, steaming hot, on the stovetop next to a mug of hot café au lait.

Salmon with lemon butter sauce (thanks, Wegman’s!) and asparagus risotto (thanks, Ttader Joe!). #foodie #notFromScratch #MealsForOne.
Salmon filet topped with lemon slices and lemon-butter sauce, plated alongside asparagus risotto on a triangular seafoam green plate. There is an orange and a tomato in the background on the cabinet.

A blue and while foot bath bubbling away as it heats up, in front of a purple corduroy mama San chair with two large, fluffy bath towels folded for later use.

I did it, you should too. Everybody should.
A blue sticker with red and yellow borders. There is a white bull silhouette with seven stars in white on the blue field, and the words “No Bull, I Voted” aroind the rim. The colors are those of Durham, NC, the “Bull City.” The seven stars are the Pliedes constellation on the shoulder of Taurus.
