Who is WeaZL? He is in my profile picture. We competed together for 5 years and then I passed him on to my sisters. He was a 14.1 hand Mustang who was trained to 2 Level dressage, jumped 3'9" and just generally kicked bigger, more expensive horses' asses repeatedly. His lifetime was not long enough.

11.26 dinner planning: 1st week of October "I'm not cooking and cleaning, we are going out." 2nd week of October "OK, I'll clean but not cooking". 3rd week of Oct, peruse NYT Cooking and decide we're having stuffed flank steak and gnocchi. Which I will cook...😏

Really? Just how grownup is it to gather all your toys and friends up in the middle of a play date to go home because you don't like how the ther kids have decided to play.

Mike Johnson: "You have to keep the grownups in charge, steady hands at the wheel. That's why Republicans HAVE to keep control of Congress."

In the greater Seattle area, all mail goes to the S. 1st regional PO to be processed. If I mail my ballot to Everett, which USED to be a regional PO, it goes to Seattle to be postmarked which can take up to 48 hours THEN it comes BACK to Everett for delivery. USE. A. DROPBOX.

www.cnbc.com/2026/10/15/u... About 1.2% of mail-in ballots cast in 2024 were rejected. Of them, 40.7% were rejected because signature on return envelope didn’t match or was incomplete. 10% were rejected because no signature. 17.8% were rejected because they were not received by state’s deadline.

Use a drop box! Don't trust the USPS with your ballot.

FFS people. Reaching waaaay down to the base.

Tapper: "How worried are Republicans about Paxton losing? Well, we've apparently reached a brand new campaign stage where the VP is insinuating that the Texas Democratic Senate nominee, James Talarico, is gay ... not exactly the sign of a party convinced they can win on their record or ideas"

Rep Omar for House Speaker please.

Ilhan Omar@ilhanmn.bsky.social

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

The definition of insurance: 'coverage by contract whereby one party undertakes to indemnify or guarantee another against loss by a specified contingency or peril'. There was no loss or peril, therefore the insurance wasn't used. Apparently this idiot doesn't see the plus side of selling insurance.

Assistant AG for Fraud Colin McDonald: "Apparently 35% of people have never even used their Obamacare account for any health services. That is a statistical impossibility and it's because these are not real people seeking real care. These are fraudsters."

I always walk in. I like to watch the choreography of the team keeping the burgers, fries and shakes moving.

Michael Wara@michaelwara.bsky.social

Just went in to get my fries and Diet Coke at In-N-Out Burger while my car charges across the street. The most (southern) California thing about that place is that there is always a 30 car line in the drive thru and zero line at the counter. People are so weird. We need to study this.

This. Senator Duckworth can be the next Senate Leader. There'll be no 'strongly worded letters' from her office.

SMH. Why TF would world leaders EVEN CARE if he is 'running' in the Midterms? I think who ever wrote this speech knows they've lost major media coverage and are using this UN time to preach to the MAGA choir.

Trump on the midterms: "I am not running ... I will not give credence to the election when it comes to Iran. It doesn't even enter my mind."

If I were the United Nation's, I'd be busting my ass to get the headquarters the f*ck out ot the U.S.

Trump: "Mexico is the epicenter of the cartel violence, unfortunately. It's unacceptable for the United States to share a 2,000 mile border with a territory controlled by enemy cartels ... my administration is also seeking a fundamental change in the situation in Cuba ... it will fall."

KARL: Do you support Trump banning news organizations because he doesn't like what they're reporting? SCALISE: Look, Biden removed the press credentials from 400 agencies KARL: That's not true. 400 reporters who had credentials didn't reapply. They weren't banned from the WH. That did not happen.

Christopher Rugabar of AP wrote: "Kevin Hassett, Trump’s top economic adviser, was asked in an interview with Fox News on Sunday how Trump might react to a rate hike. “I’m sure he’s not going to be super happy about it, but he will defend the independence of Kevin Warsh above all,” he said.

The picture in the article is disingenuous. The product recalled would NEVER be dispensed directly to a patient. Epinephrine pens are not included. Neither are the 1 ML vials commonly used in the ER for anaphylaxis or cardiac arrest. The vials listed are not for patient care areas.

Keep the eyes on the Midterms. We are being manipulated.

Hakeem Jeffries & Jared Kushner, ok I'll bite on this bait and piss a lot of people off.

Dear Mr. Jeffries. The 'center' is collapsing beneath you. There're more 'left' thinking voters out there than you will acknowledge.

What Blanche 'believes' and what the law states are mutually exclusive.

FOX NEWS: Why not just go to Congress for the ballroom? BLANCHE: We don't believe we have to go to Congress. We believe Congress has already given us the authority to do what we're doing.

Trump: "At one year, you should have 5 separate visits for vaccines rather than getting them all in the same day. I've seen proof of where they have a vaccination thing that looks like the size of a bottle of soda and pour it into a little child's body."

On a private call, Todd Blanche said his goal was to make the "Dobbs decision permanent in every single state." This isn’t just a confirmation vote anymore—it’s a roll-call vote on which Senators endorse BANNING abortion in ALL 50 states. I’m voting NO.

Does one of Cornyn's close relatives qualify for the 'fund'??

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Cornyn: "As to the idea it could be revived in the future, I think it's highly unlikely that could happen without the cooperation of the DOJ. And I think Mr Blanche gave us the assurances that it was dead and would not be revived and in this case we have no alternative but to take his word" 🙃

Mic drop. No more CE, no more renewing ACLS or PALS certificates. No more worrying about surprise inpections or calling prescribers when they mistype an order. It's been fun but I'm outta here.

Being old and having both an extensive DVD collection with TWO Blu-ray players means I get to watch "Once" as many fucking times I want and sob the whole damn time.#glenhansard
