Iβm pretty much done playing nice with so called progressive groups who are willing to throw trans kids under the bus just so they can go back to their funders and say they βpassed the bill to protect the children.β https://www.vice.com/en/article/qjv3qp/congress-is-pushing-an-online-safety-bill-supported-by-anti-lgbtq-groups
"This Is Sooo Not A Witch Hunt!"
(Shout out to Chandler Bing from the TV show Friends)
Twelve random John & Jane Doe's, selected by the defense and the prosecution, from a jury pool at each of the four locations in which Trump has been charged (GA, DC, NY, FL) will judge Trump's guilt or innocence.
America is a democracy 'OF THE PEOPLE' and it is the 'PEOPLE' that will hold Trump accountable for his actions!

Hi. If you see "Biden only gave {tiny amount} to help {issue X} while spending millions on Ukraine" in any of your social media, that is propaganda. It's from Putin's disinfo shops aimed at convincing the west to stop supporting Ukrainian defenses against the Russian invasion.
You can and should report and block those accounts.
We had an earthquake today, in the middle of our hurricane, but what I'm wondering if any of us work at Google, making Android sounds.
I've never heard my phone do an emergency alert for earthquakes before. The amber alerts are evil - like the atonal ones they do over the air. The earthquake alert is a happy little chime. OK, a happy REALLY LOUD chime. But it's a chime, not a "OMG the world is ending!!!" sound. I kind of like it.
After grilling lobster for my wife and grandsons, I made myself a gourmet grilled cheese (Iβll have lobster when I get home from work tonight) bourbon cured thick bacon, caramelized onion, GruyΓ¨re and cheddar cheese on thick cut milk bread. #WhataChefEats
I got an earthquake warning on my phone and felt the building sway in the middle of the storm.
Mother Nature, you are overwriting this scene. #LosAngeles
A 66-year-old mother of 9 was murdered by a deranged wingnut who was incensed that she had a pride flag outside her store. Her blood is on the hands of every right-winger who hasn't condemned their movement's relentless attacks on the #LGBTQ community.

@theautisticcoach @actuallyautistic I don't know that I ever properly processed grief from the loss of my relatives. I always saw to the logistics of what needed dealt with but the emotional side was always something very painful. I would open it up for brief periods, decide it was too much to deal with and box it back up. I'm realizing typing this out this is probably not healthy.
New Illustrations... autistic meltdown, disturbing
More artwork... For "Calm Down" post coming tomorrow...

San Francisco: Our dog Wily has escaped her sitter and we are trapped on a plane for the next 9 hours.
She was last spotted in the Castro, heading toward the Mission but she could be anywhere. She is very sweet but very timid.
If you see her: please do not approach, although she may be lured with treats.
Call SF animal control, and send me or @seldo a message.
Please boost.
The first time I heard the song Big Girls Don't Cry was in nursery school. We were supposed to go outside but it was raining so we couldn't. We were understandably disappointed, but they decided to play a game (maybe musical chairs?), inside instead, and they put that song on. Again, just came on, and I thought of that memory. #Music
@ScottSoCal @ocsweetest this has always been my motto!
"Global warming" comes from billions of tons, hundreds of billions of tons, of CO2 from buring carbon fuels.
Our thin life system is a balance, interactive, mutually needed by each, adding heat upsets the balance, is upsetting, the balances.
Ending the forced injection of greater amounts, hundreds of billipns of tons more CO2, is the first task.
We have been "reassured" to the brink of disaster, and beyond.
Another ALARM.
Link coming sorry, more fires.
@ocsweetest Iβll be grilling steaks and asparagus for dinner later. Maybe in the rain. Lol
Hopefully napping too!
At some point Iβll be eating this chocolate peanut butter treat! It was staring at me all day!
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.
