Spent the morning making minestrone soup. Broccoli, corn, carrots, peas, green beans, spinach, sautéed onions, garlic, kidney beans, cheese tortellini, tomato sauce.

This part.

And... this is, so far, my favorite thread of the day.

My reaction to someone blocking me: 🤔🙄😐🥱😐😐😐

<deep breath>

some favorite sketches from this year so far.

Looking at what has become of the US, and hearing people "wanting their democracy back" is like if it suddenly started raining fire, and wishing for the good old days of non-stop acid rain. #aimhigher

Can we stop pretending that the US is first and foremost a #Plutocracy? Besides all the glaringly obvious signs, the fact that money is the main deciding factor for who can run for governmental office should be a clear warning. #USgovernment

The most pathetic part about this is the numerous people in the US who love to point out the flaws in socialized medicine (real or imaginary) out of one side of their face, and shout "USA #1!" out of the other. #1 could create a plan for universal health care that's better then all others.

The 13 federal adjudicative guidelines assess eligibility for security clearances, examining foreign influence, finances, personal conduct and other risks. Under these standards, Trump and many in his administration would not qualify. #SecurityClearance #SEAD4

<Shudder> AI commercials are just creepy (in a bad way). The uncanny valley is a chasm. The lack of actual eye contact, the weird movements of cloth and hair (or lack there of), the walking as if wearing a full diaper... Ugh. #AIsucks

I just don't "get" the appeal of #HammerHorror films. I've tried to watch a few, but got so bored. The costumes, the makeup, the scripts are so bad, but oddly, not laughably bad, just pityingly bad. The "horror" is trite and cheap. I wish I could like them, but I don't get the appeal. #horrorfilms

Some minor but easy steps to making elections more fair: 1. Limit the amount individuals are allowed to give to candidates. 2. Corporations are NOT individuals and can't give money. 3. Remove money as a deciding factor in who can run. 4. Limit the spending allowed for advertising. #USelections

Mexico is putting tech platforms on notice: protecting children online is their responsibility. President Sheinbaum plans a decree giving social media and streaming services 30 days to shield minors from harmful content, with penalties possible. #Mexico #ChildSafety www.reuters.com/world/us/mex...

Show me a picture on your phone that has your energy that isn't a selfie….

Legal suggestion for all countries: All artwork, writing, etc. involving AI must be clearly marked as such (ie watermarked). Not just those involving money, ALL such work. There should never be guesswork needed to figure out whether something is or isn't AI. #AI_art #AI_writing

Americans who receive prescription medicines by mail from Canadian and other international pharmacies face a major interruption to that access beginning October 22, 2026. www.cipa.com/new-us-... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

Human "civilization" is disappearing fast. There are fewer and fewer places with any sense of humanity. Evil, twisted, monsters control the governments. The best we can hope for is that humans will just take out themselves, and leave other living things alone.

LGBTQ+ Americans are living more openly despite pressure to hide www.advocate.com/pol... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

Denmark is moving to protect people's faces and voices from AI deepfakes shared without consent. As synthetic media becomes harder to detect, protecting personal identity is becoming a fundamental digital right. #AI #Deepfakes www.euronews.com/2026/10/08/d...

Why the ever living fuck do I have, unprompted and uninvited, Danke Schoen (Wayne Newton) stuck in my head?

Trump’s Triumphal Arch By The Numbers https://theonion.com/trumps-triumphal-arch-by-the-numbers/

Trump displays his technique for sucking Putin's dick.

Again and again I'm reminded why I avoid comic book fans. 90% of those I've delt with (or even overheard conversing about comics) are hateful, narrow-minded assholes. There might be some emotionally stable fans out there, but they must stay under the radar. #comicfandom

Blah. Wrapping string lights around (and around and...) tree branches is booooring. #halloween #spookydecor

Most US folks don't realize that historically US citizens, as a whole, are famous for not getting involved until things inconvenience them.
