So once again, here's the old threads all nested together of photos and countdowns, and I guess its that time... bsky.app/profile/mxma...

MXMarks@mxmarksthespot.bsky.social

So I'll kick it off and pin this to my page, which have the previous 2 times nested in them. I think this time I wont be so strict not to include duplicates - this time Ill just grab a photo I like every day, for the next 55 days, until vacation hits again. bsky.app/profile/mxma...

Remember when Dan Quale couldn't spell potato and everyone in the whole country laughed at him non stop. Anyway the Vice President should be able to pronounce the name of countries! That shouldn't be a thing he's willing to admit!

JD Vance says of the Middle East that it's "a region of the world made up of countries whose name I couldn't even pronounce"

Hard Rock prices got low enough I switched our vacation on vacation to Thursday-Friday. Its about $60 more but I feel like express pass on Friday (before we leave Saturday) is worth it when crowds will likely be busier and we can promise endless 'one more final ride' before the trip ends.

1. Not sure when a new, on-the-record rape allegation against a sitting president isn’t considered news — especially considering Trump was found liable by a jury in a similar case — but it was ignored by most mainstream media outlets

the biggest presidential scandal in history but the political media largely acts as if it's not happening. hasan piker has received more mainstream political media coverage over the last 6 months than trump's connections with epstein has

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

We need to crush these people to restore a basic sense that moral behavior actually means anything at all. That is what is at stake here.

NEW: Vivek Ramaswamy says Amy Acton being a victim of childhood sexual abuse makes her “flawed” while defending his ad featuring her estranged mother. “In politics sometimes it's a tough sport.”

I remembered what ET's friends Magdoll, Orbidon, and Tilki looked like, just like Steven Spielberg asked me to. It's not my fault it never really came up.

Obvious electoral rake-stepping aside, at what point is anyone going to acknowledge that young men are not “locked out” of the economy by some nefarious entity (women), they are literally feeding all of their disposable income into the gaping maw of sportsbetting apps. It’s actually quite simple.

Bloomberg News@bloomberg.com

Frustrated younger, male voters feeling locked out of the economy and diminishing opportunities are rapidly abandoning the Republican coalition, or straight up opting out of political action altogether

Every single Republican elected and voter openly endorses rape and sexual abuse. All of them, openly. You can't even argue the point with me, it's established fact. Silence from Murk. Collins isnt even concerned. Nothing from Moody. No comment from Lindsey Graham's sister. They're all on board.

JD Vance: "Now the media and the Democrats in the state of Ohio are obsessed because Vivek Ramaswamy had the audacity to run a TV commercial which calls it out like it is and call Amy Acton a liar"

I literally don't have words for the news of EA closing Bioware. Unconscionable, incompetent, soulless decision-making. May everyone involved in these decision suffer Renegade interrupts for the rest of their lives.

Jeez I had been hearing for so long "BioWare is in danger!" that I just kind of had accepted it as a part of the industry. Seeing its over in writing is really upsetting.

I love that Ive watched Ghostbusters a billion times since about age 10 and I still catch things. I just finally noticed when Dana first shows up Ray is on like his 5th beer.

I absolutely hate people who say things like this But Remember that time Joe Biden misspoke

Trump: "I'm studying his body. I've never studied the body of a man before. It's not my thing. Nothing wrong with it, of course. But it's never been my thing. But I looked at his ass. I said, 'His ass, shit, it's like a pile of muscle.' Then I looked at his legs and I said, 'Man, his feet are big.'"

At long last, we have created a way for you to take away Nikki's free will, from the classic horror movie "don't take away Nikki's free will"

Nikki from OBSESSION joins FORTNITE tomorrow. You wished for this...

My normally calm, cool, confident vacation planning demeanor has been tossed out the window as I suddenly feel like going to Epic on a Friday is probably the lowest crowds.

Perhaps the best news of this little trip to Kings Dominion over the weekend was my son was let on 42" rides. At home, he measures just at the 42" line, and we were nervous. He cleared it with ease. He got to some new "big kid" rides. More importantly, looks like MEN IN BLACK is a go next month!!

Lets goooooooooooooooooooo

Just announced: every delightful detail for holidays like never before, including SUPER NINTENDO WORLD, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, plus our returning festive favorites Nov. 14 – Jan. 3. See more details: https://spr.ly/6014BHRNdw

Curious if anyone has an opinion on this, as I kick my vacay planning into high gear. Trip is a week, Sunday to Saturday. Would you rather: -Go to Epic Universe on Tues. Have express at IoA/USF on Wed and Thurs. or -Go to Epic Universe on Wed. Have express at IoA/USF on Mon and Tues.

I originally booked Epic on Tues, and express at the old parks Wed/Thurs. Figured regular parks would get busy later in the week, so express is more handy than earlier in the week. Then I saw some stuff that, weirdly, Tuesday is always slammed at Epic and Wed is usually empty? Hmm.
