β... I think the nicest commentary on the way he and I are living our life together is the fact that on βspecial occasions,β we just want to do what we always do. When normal fits the criteria for special, thatβs a good gig....β -JR WARD. Pretty much sums up life these days. πππ πΊ
Watching Star Trek TNG over again, with my 13yr old.
I think this show fucked up my generation because it convinced us that villains tend to concede when Picard points out the moral consequences of their plans, and their unforeseen impact on other peopleβs rights and dignity.
So why isn't Fox news televising interviews of all the happy people who live near data centers so we can hear what a treat it is to live with the constant noise, lights, increased utility costs and non-existent new jobs?
This 1899 clip of a little girl and her cat is the oldest surviving cat footage on film, just 4 years after the Lumiere brothers invented cinema. Now colorized and speed corrected.
Considering how badly Covid was mishandled, they're probably going to regret the decision to make Fauci's personal diary and journal public. We're going to see how it was handled from the insider, from Fauci's point of view... based on you know...science.
Neoliberalism in a nutshell. UEFA on FIFA's proposal: βThe moment external investors acquire ownership interests ... football changes forever. Commercial return becomes a permanent obligation. ...

Please blow up the public comment (included below):
BREAKING NEWS (7/15) β The administration wants to destroy Chaco Canyon without consulting Tribal Nations. Itβs an irreplaceable historic & cultural site with 4,700 archeological sites that could be lost to the bulldozers of oil & gas development
Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

The eruption of Mount St. Helens, seen shortly after 8:32 am Sunday, 18 May 1980, probably along the forest roads of Gifford Pinchot National Forest.
The photographer, Richard Lasher, survived the eruption that killed approximately 57 others.
kind of amazing that everything trump does can be understood through the lens of narcissism and it's related needs (e.g., self aggrandizement, revenge, domination, grievance validation). i don't think any character has been so one-dimensional, not even wile e coyote or scrooge mcduck
Takapuna Beach Festival yesterday- cutest pup + we saw the cruise ship we just left that morning gliding by as it departed NZ. #adventureswithsweettart#nomadlife#travel
I feel semi ridiculous posting about #travels during the implosion of my nation, ππ€¬, but perhaps this will help for just a moment of respite. Itβs day 28 of our Legendary Voyage and we are ready to disembark tomorrow. A few scenes from the incredible stop in Tonga πΉπ΄
