Happy Birthday!

I don't find the movie irritating, but I find the protagonist rather fake.

that picture makes me happy. This is the Internet - that’s not supposed to happen….

@CHAS said: I am younger than Biden and Trump. I don't find that to be particularly encouraging. Beats the alternative.

I’m not a runner, but I think I get how you feel about peers/not peers.

Oh my fucking god. What is it with magats and history? First Trump signs the surrender and reparations document at fucking Versailles, now this maga influencer literally said “Donald Trump just delivered peace in our time”. https://x.com/bennyjohnson/status/2067393501004697788?s=46

@wtg said: As you say, better in someone else's yard. Yep! BTW I have been monitoring the lack eyed susan's in the front of our house, and I'm convinced that the animal doing the eating is a deer. The reason I think that is because the spots that are eaten are in the middle of the bunch, as if a large creature walked up and bent their head down from a height, rather than at the edges, as you might expect with a small creature sitting low to the ground and chewing at that height. This is my current "plant detector" analysis. I remain hopeful that there will still be blooms come July

The perversion of unfettered capitalism. It's been plainly clear for years and years and years that the inevitable outcome of this system--left unchecked--is a concentration of wealth into very few hands. Meanwhile, in the US, children are left hungry, 90% of the citizens experience financial insecurity, ad nauseating lib. It's gross. Not because of the people who are rich (although so very many of them can be held up as examples of uncaring greed), but because unbridled capitalism is a seriously flawed system. Some day we will overcome the economic destruction ushered in by Reagan.

In New York City, the common pickle is the half-sour, the staple of the Jewish deli, and perfect complement to your pastrami sandwich. There are still a couple of retail businesses that specialize in pickles, filling your container from a barrel. The half-sour is delicious, and most supermarkets carry the jarred Ba-Tampte brand.

Yea, the Albanians aren't happy about this. At all. https://www.npr.org/2026/06/16/g-s1-128162/albania-resort-protests-kushner-trump

Good advice. I am from Swampeast Missouri. In the early 20th century a project to drain the area moved more earth than the digging of the Panama Canal. Drainage still requires year round vigilance. Mosquitoes love it. The mosquitoes stayed.
