I grew up Mormon, in Utah. Jello salad was a basic food group. There was a jello salad for every occasion, some dessert (don't forget the Cool Whip!) and some savory, for meals.
There's nothing good about a jello salad.
I Iove this language. Because it makes sense.
Unlike Russia's maddening illogical trolling use of the same words to justify 'retaliating' (=missile strikes against civilians and infrastructure) against Ukraine acting to prevent further Russian invasion murders.

I think itβs important to repeat: you don't "have something to hide" when you put blinds on your windows or close the door when you're on the can or wear clothes.
Privacy isn't about having something to hide. It's not about keeping secrets. It's about you being the person who chooses what you reveal about yourself, and when, and to who, and the other word we have for that is "dignity". Your inherent dignity, as a human being.
Your privacy is the agency you have over your dignity.
@ScottSoCal @godpod Mother is his VP candidate...
This is #Zelensky as he was dressed to speak to a joint session of the US Congress. A military commander-in-chief wearing what amounts to dress battle fatigues with the crest of his nation. It's obvious this was the image he wanted to project.
A leader at war.
Cowardly Republicans who carry water for #Putin have been dogpiling him for not wearing a suit. Which reminds me a lot of Republicans dragging President Obama for wearing the wrong color suit.
In a saner society, every one of these Republican culture war gambits would be recognized for what they are: red herrings. Use of red herrings means you've conceded the main argument. That is, if you have any self-respect or dignity.
People on the left often make the mistake of trying to seriously engage the red herring instead of just shaming the person for being obtuse and intellectually dishonest
We know why Zelensky made the choice he made. And so do Republicans.
@sean
Zelenskyy frightens them because he's a global icon of integrity, courage, and commitment. Things they know nothing of.

Or that she's appointed her brother as head of the state's Animal Welfare Bureau.
White House spokesman Abdullah Hasan states.
"Governor Abbott abandoned children on the side of the road in below freezing temperatures on Christmas Eve without coordinating with any Federal or local authorities. This was a cruel, dangerous, and shameful stunt."
@wdlindsy
Cruel, dangerous, and shameful is the whole bag of tricks, for the GQP.
Some inconvenient facts about immigrants that MAGAs hope you ignore:
β’Seeking asylum is a legal & human RIGHT, protected by the US Constitution and the UN Convention on Refugees (to which the USA is a signatory)
β’Both documented AND undocumented immigrants have LOWER crime rates than US Citizens (and usually higher vaccination rates too)
β’Undocumented immigrants pay MORE in taxes ($12B annually) than Trump ever has or will (and get none of the tax benefits)

If there isn't one, start it, tell other authors about it. Make it a thing.
Earlier this year, my wife took a snapshot of our daughter living her best life at the park.
It matched perfectly with a short poem I had written about my little girl. Hopefully someone gets a small amount of enjoyment out of it. π

He may want to, but Mother would never allow it. She'd lock him in his prayer closet, under the stairs.

Elmu is a douche nozzle. A crusty one, that hasn't been washed for, like, ever.
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
