I lost a childhood friend today in Bakhmut. Forever young. Rest in peace, friend! I donβt know what to say anymore, thatβs not how we planned to live our lives. π #ArmUkraineNow
Jim Jordan shouldnβt be chair of House Judiciary committee, he should be a defendant in a criminal trial for attempting to overturn the 2020 election. Jan 6 committee notes Jordan was a "significant player" in Trump's coup.

I'm older so I remember things. Everything you see happening today should be understood this way:
The top tax rate used to be 90% in order to prevent the really rich from destroying democracy.
The corporate tax rate was 50% because corporations exist to serve society.
AND the inheritance tax was really high to keep family dynasties from gaining power over us.
You'd think that having 'pink' in their name would have given it all away years ago! π

Flower of the very showy California guava, growing at public access garden at STEM in Mission Bay, San Francisco 04.22. If you go to an event at Chase Center, a half block south on Terry Francois brings you to the staircase & a bit further south to the ramp up to their wonderful vegetable and fruit garden. A pure joy in the city. #JanuaryJoy, #flowers, #Bayarea, #GardeningMastodon
Sometimes it doesn't work out. Tried to do an E-girl Velma, with piercings and tattoos, but I couldn't make it work. So posting this one, to let it go and move on.
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.
