Why cottage pie and shepherd’s pie and not hovel pie or swineherd’s pie?

DAILY REMINDER: Today's MAGA GOP is a white nationalist, FASCIST movement that seeks to turn their religious beliefs into US law. They must be politically defeated in order to save our democratic Republic. Period.

Michael Fanone shreds Republicans for blowing off ceremony honoring J6 cops: They are 'without shame'

That ceremony, which focused on the injured or deceased officers who protected members of Congress, was attended by only one Republican congressman, Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA). Republicans say that the event conflicted with a party conference call.

My awesome wife is an #NHS nurse.

Tonight she was an hour late coming home at the end of her 13 hour shift, because there was nobody to hand over to.

She was looking after 8 patients today. That’s 7.5 minutes per patient per hour.

For £16.84 per hour.

This is normal - having got gradually worse over the past years. It’s breaking her spirit and ultimately putting patients at risk.

I will be with her on the picket line. 💪 #NHSStrikes #NurseStrikes #solidarity

Not to brag, but FedEx left a note on my door that they missed me.

Want to know who Elon Musk really is? Ignore the BS about billionaires and savants. Look at who he listens to, who he banters with all day, and whose concerns he takes seriously. Michael Flynn, restored today, is a straight-up fascist thug and traitor. #Twitter #GOP #USpol

Hi! I'm Brianna, 53, trans woman, not out at work, but out everywhere else. (She/her). Pre-everything.

Fun fact about me: I've been to every Weird Al tour since 2000. The pic is me at the latest tour stop in Austin.

My wife told me to take the spider out instead of killing him.

Went out. Had a few drinks. Nice guy. He's a web designer.

My favorite bird is the Killdeer plover.

A pair once nested in a pile of gravel in my backyard and raised 4 chicks.

Can you spot the well camouflaged eggs?

@Mrfunkedude I got myself ready to go back to work after my last surgery by walking dogs at a local shelter. It's hard to imagine feeling more appreciated: every dog in their loves you...

Ok, this is cool: a team of biologists worked out that turtles can talk. The hatchlings even talk to each other in the egg to coordinate their hatching. Turtle talk is at frequencies not very audible for humans and it can take hours for some species to reply to each other.

“Had we had a bit more expansive imaginations, we might have caught this earlier,” said Karen Bakker, a fellow at Harvard’s Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study.

Never forget what they did—in service to Donald Trump:

@ScottSoCal @silkenpaw the knot you want is called a “turk’s head.” you can find out how to tie them with yer basic web search. they’re a teensy bit fiddly to get right at first but not impossible.

tie the wicker as tight as you possibly can and don’t trim the end(s) off until it dries.
