same cycleknitz from xitter but better

Well. Apparently at long last someone has *some* decency. Shame that *only* in Colorado are despicable people held accountable. All y'all other 49, time to step up.

Ah, now that there's a new book out to enrage the Ridin' with Bidens, the new cry apparently is WHY AREN'T YOU REPORTING THAT TRUMP CALLED BANKERS BY A SHAKESPEAREAN ANTISEMITIC SLUR oh wait www.google.com/search?q=tru...

Ope

Oh great. "Low Rider" by WAR is the latest tune to be co-opted into a pharma jingle

I honestly don't get the point of this thread. Boys and young men don't have a right to be afraid of being cannon fodder for Trump's desire for self-aggrandizement because...reasons?

Number of skeets screeching THIS IS AN IMPEACHABLE OFFENSE in the past 2 hours: approaching ∞ Number of articles of impeachment introduced in the past two hours:

Bluesky: DEAR MEDIA: YOU NEED TO REPORT WHAT HE SAYS BECAUSE IT SHOWS HIS DEMENTIA Also Bluesky: DEAR MEDIA: DO NOT REPORT WHAT HE SAYS

Some cholla and prickly pears in bloom.

WIP, after J. Howard Miller #art

It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine

For your viewing pleasure

I literally got into a shouting match with my husband last night over this. YES IMMIGRANTS ARE ENTITLED TO DUE PROCESS JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE LISTEN TO YOUR WIFE WHO IS AN ATTORNEY

Intersection of Nevada and Bijou, downtown Springs. (Photo credit: my son, who lives 2 blocks away)

Another golden columbine bloom from the same plant as below. The previous bloom (from a few days ago) either fell off or got et.

Aquilegia chrysantha (golden columbine) from my back yard. Cousin of Aquilegia coerulia, the Rocky Mountain blue columbine.

So Denver didn't get picked as a venue (my suspicion is that insufficient danegeld was offered to the FIFA grandes fromages). Suddenly I'm not feeling so bad about not having World Cup matches 2 hours from me.

I mean, last week I accidentally filed a pleading with a paragraph consisting solely of a sentence fragment (I was both in a hurry and in high dudgeon and forgot to tend to said sentence fragment) but...

CNN: [promotes book] BLUESKY: You need to be covering THE CURRENT EVIL DESPOT CNN: [covers the current evil, gets arrested live on national TV] BLUESKY: This is what you get for BENDING THE KNEE

Honestly there's only 12 people whose opinions matter on this. Did @usapolling.bsky.social poll them?

Another reason why Rock Springs sucks, as if there weren't enough of them

Oh lordy, the deus ex machina "this time it's for real" hopium is firing up again

After a hard day's work: [decides to relax by opening Bluesky] [sees a feed full of gleeful skeets about Elon, 45/47, and Jeffrey Epstein] [closes Bluesky, puts phone down] [walks into the forest, never to be seen again]

My feed here, in no particular order: --Democratic purity testing --Cats --LawSky --Art --Just Colorado things Sometimes they intersect (LawSky loves Kyle Clark's coverage of Mike Pillow's defamation trial). Sometimes they don't (some Dems really need to pet cats and touch grass).

O Canada, I thought you cast Pierre Polyester or whatever his name is into oblivion so why do I keep seeing his name in my feed? Oh wait :stares angrily at Colorado CD-04, which apparently has no problem with carpetbaggers:

Not quite true. ADHD: Let me change my focus every 15 seconds until I go down THIS RABBIT HOLE WHERE I WILL SPEND THE NEXT 6 HOURS LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE IM BUSY

Democrats: HOW VERY DARE YOU CRITICIZE OUR OCTOGENARIAN FOR RUNNING AGAIN Also Democrats: [run for reëlex in their 70s/80s, get reëlected, promptly die]

I think Kristi Noem confused "habeas corpus" and "habemus papam" in her addled little brain and it came out "we have the body and we can send it wherever we feel like"

The news over the weekend that former President Joe Biden has a serious and incurable form of prostate cancer has raised questions about whether he truly just learned about this. We found an article by a writer who is also a physician.

The Book™ is still being published. Buy it or don't buy it, vote with your dollars. (It's the third book in the past 2 months to plow this field, btw.)

Democrats: HOW VERY DARE YOU SAY OUR OCTOGENARIAN GOLDEN CALF WAS TOO OLD TO RUN FOR REËLEX Also Democrats: 35 YEAR OLD OR GTFO

Hm. As upset as some people seem to be about a book coming out, mayhap the authors are right over the target...

"I hate to break it to potato head, but the universal Catholic Church is the first globalist institution ... And the Church founded by the Godhead who fled to Egypt as an undocumented refugee has always been in favor of open borders." @jvl.bsky.social shreds ignorant right-wing attacks on the pope.

Paging @badlegaltakes.bsky.social

Ok so I had to go see who Isaac Chotiner destroyed today www.newyorker.com/news/q-and-a...

Remember the 6 men who forcibly removed Dr. Teresa Borrenphol from the Coeur d'Alene town hall? They’ve been arrested and charged! www.kivitv.com/news/six-men...

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

First the Wall Street Journal editorial page... now David Brooks??? It is the apocalypse

Something is fundamentally wrong with America when millions of dollars can’t buy you a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat, the respect of your children, the silence of your baby mammas, or a functional penis implant.

Welp, not going to Pueblo anytime soon (and I guess I better get those titers checked)

@bennet.senate.gov speaks truth

126 domestic cats in the U.S. have been infected with bird flu since 2022, according to the U.S. Agriculture Department. Around half of those cases were recorded this year, and many were exposed through food or milk.

Dear Bluesky: There are worse things in this country to worry about than getting a Real ID-compliant license. If you don't have one already, just round up the paperwork and get it done. Save your complaining energy for more important things.
