I finally watched the #gop response to the Address #darkbrandon gave the country.

Like she did in the last Administration, #huckabee still lies.

How can people who claim to be Christian look at themselves in the mirror after telling these falsehoods. There is a Commandment against lying, right?

I call today’s look, ‘I can’t find my lint roller, but I’m fucking wearing these black pants anyway.’

Last Sunday afternoon, my wife and I decided to play a game of Risk.

Or as she describes it, showing me some clothes that she bought to “see what I think”.

Teaching about the Holocaust should be mandatory. No exceptions just because it might shock students. It is horrific, all decent young people need to know this.
Teach US students about Holocaust, experts say, amid rise in antisemitism

@ScottSoCal I’ll need to schedule some time for a lunch-and-learn so I can be more effective at not being sick

New name for the type of cishet white leftist who says shit like "the only struggle is class struggle" while ignoring issues only people of color experiences.

It's not one of the main time machine destinations but I think it would be pretty tight to pop over to november 13, 1833, and check out the leonid meteor shower, which hit an estimated 100,000 meteors per hour at its peak

I think website's finished enough now to start mentioning the url, so...

*quietly whispers* "tadaaa...."

It's just a place to be able to point to separate from social media, but there are more than a few new and better pictures, and I'm happy it's now both Dutch and English. So enjoy if you want to look around .

(I'm also pretty chuffed that it's .art now, instead of .nl).

Good boii greeting

#SOTU
For a European, #Biden speech last night was a show of hope, that at least more then half the #USA voters are not complete delusional christian fanatics and that there is still faith in #Democracy.

#LunchPun #Joke

#stateoftheunion we have a #President who really likes the #legislative branch of government, and the back and forth. To him those were not interruptions, but call and response, punctuation. For once the writers wrote the heckling and applause lines into the script! It’s dialogue.

Also get impression he could cheerfully drink them each and every one under the table in the pub while telling stories and jokes!

Well done President #Biden!

A blustery good morning to you. Yesterday’s shot put me in mind of the Islands, so I’m posting a beach photo today from Uig Snds, Lewis. You can see the Harris Hills in the background. #scotland #scottishhighlandsandislands #westernisles #outerhebrides #lewis #harrishills #uigsands #scotlandphotography #photooftheday #nofilter #moody #beach

Hi all - Happy Tuesday! I’m excited to be making new connections here and sharing the beauty of the world around us through art and photography.

NUTREK IS SO WOKE NOT LIKE THE GOOD OLD DAYS. /s

Once you see it you can't unsee it:
A "civil rights leader," is often what a "political leader" looks like in a system where pervasive racism prevents Black people from achieving the highest office.🤷🏿‍♂️

What civil rights leaders call for today, becomes sound, accepted, proven good policy 20 years in the future, that improves life for all of us.

This goodness or badness compounds year over year. If we had listened to Frederick Douglass about reconstruction, the US would not be so messed up today.

Here we go!

Would "Finding Your Roots" be nearly as interesting if they did normal people?

I just saw where #NFL star Tony Gonzalez was related to William Shakespeare.

Mine would probably be like "they lived in this Appalachian holler for 200 years.
