The first time they had grifters, this time they have ideologues. I'm morbidly curious how this will pan out, that sort uses violence to impose a reality that doesn't exist. It's an inherently unstable rejection of material existence. And if Trump dies, no one else around him can ride that buck under him, they do not have the charisma; they're creepy fucking weirdos. He got less votes this time, and several right wingers have already attempted to kill him, so his hold isn't as steady to begin with. My inner optimist is wondering if they may learn to regret what they bought.

It's not a coincidence, I feel, as it was once a key hub for journalists and Arab Spring activists.

This is why people flocking to Bluesky and not Fedi boggles my brain. Centralisation in the hands of capital is a precarious position to find yourself in if you ever find yourself ever against the state. They now have all of that data handed to them on a silver platter.

Hernia, but a little baby bump. My doctor describes it like having a tack in your back and I like that metaphor.

Sorted. Ty!

Ty for the effort! Fixed.

Edit, lmao:

The wattled jacana (Jacana jacana) belongs to clade Scolopaci, and its karyotype has not been reported yet. It is an interesting species with a polyandrous mating system, in which a single female defends a harem of up to four males by aggressively excluding other females from their territory; males provide nearly all parental care (Osborne et al., 1977; Emlen and Wrege, 2004).

Send us anything cool. :)
