Sir Terry Pratchett had 𝘋𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘩 and 𝘋𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘩 𝘰𝘧 𝘙𝘢𝘵𝘴. So in this infinite multiverse, it's not too much of a stretch to suppose a 𝘋𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘩 𝘰𝘧 𝘌𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘴, or maybe a 𝘋𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘩 𝘰𝘧 𝘞𝘢𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘉𝘪𝘳𝘥𝘴...

"President Elon has stopped paying all the religious organizations that do (in this case) refugee resettlement. ..."
People are still talking about his hijacking of the federal financial payments system - we need an up-to-the-minute accounting on how he is already abusing the system for his own fucking "priorities".
Actually, no - Elon Musk, and all of his minions, need to be arrested and incarcerated immediately
"You know they’re still trying with the SAVE Act, which would just disenfranchise millions of women who changed their names upon marriage? Nobody seems to give a single shit?"
Isn't keeping one's "maiden name" something that asshole Trads frown upon? Who knew their objections would lead to disenfranchisement?
Yeah, as it is, the SAVER Act would also fuck up more red staters than blue staters;
{ From the CAP link ]
"Overall, data shows that high rates of passport ownership are predominantly concentrated in blue states, while low rates of passport ownership are overwhelmingly concentrated in red states. This means that, under the SAVE Act, it would be disproportionately more difficult for American citizens in red states to present one of the primary forms of documentation required to register to vote—and they would be disproportionately disenfranchised if the bill became law."
i don't understand what will happen to me with this SAVE thing and i am too lazy to look it up. to whit: i use both my maiden name and my ex's name (because HIS name was not already taken by SAG/AFTRA). as with many ladies i have a 3 name name and i honestly love it.
also, i don't really care because it's my fucking name.
I’ve been meaning to order some, (and forgetting), Aleppo pepper for at least 2 weeks so I went to the Pezey’s site just now and ordered a 1/2 cup jar. And I added a 3/4 cup bag of Herbes de Procençe also, too. I can’t wait to do some baking with my free Mexican vanilla!
There wasn't a "ban on shipments," per se. Not that Donnie Dipshit ever gave it a nanosecond's thought, but all of a sudden a bazillion packages had to be opened, the contents priced, a tariff calculated, and the money collected from the addressee. Surprisingly, the USPS wasn't ready to do this on a day's notice.
Oh what a blow, Villago was a sharp thinker and enriched the discussions here, I'm terribly sorry to hear of your loss. When a friend dies the heart is so filled with aching. Peace to you PRW, and to Villago's friends and family.
I like to think we had a playful relationship commenting back and forth to each other. I will missed him. I'm very sorry for your loss and hope his memory remains a blessing to you for many years more.
We found out we lost Walter and Villago in one day.
This is a horrible day.
My heart is completely broken right now.
RIP, dear friend... I loved every moment I had a chance to chat with you and I will miss your humor, wit, and knowledgeable thoughts on our shared passion of all things political.
Before we go putting up statues to honor the NFL and their wokeness, know this: the NFL just decided to remove the End Racism message from the end zones of this weekends extravaganza. Right after a certain Pumpkinfuhrer decided he'd like to attend.
I have a severe character flaw in that I like to watch sportsball. Pathetic, I know. But I'm going to try not to watch the Stupor Bowl now. I found an Effbook message address for the No Fun League and expressed my objection.
stopped following football after i read"League of Denial". NFL "wokeness" and health and safety measures are nothing but window dressing. the average NFL player ends up crippled, financially,physically,and mentally
In response to a question about Elon acting beyond control, Donnie said:
“Elon can’t do and won’t do anything without OUR approval. WE’ll give him approval where appropriate and where not appropriate WE won’t.” [emphasis added].
Pay attention to the details, people. Trump is using the royal "we". He thinks he is the king.
Hey San Diego and Orange County Wonkers - if you lose track of where Trix put the deets (it's always tabs + maybe another post, like yesterday, but anyway) the Wonkmeet site has the events on the front page: wonkmeet.com

Don’t mess with the dinos! Love this birb; thank you, Martini!
That is one badass birb.
Egret walk of shame.
That was kind of my thought - that's a wading birb who's had a rough night.
Nice. We don't get them here, but we do have herons.
We're doing a Mystery Science for 3rd grade that has some crazy pigeons:

i love the penzey's editorial - spicy!
Thanks for the Penzey’s info!
Finally, Americans will flock to Mississippi for their great schools, after being held back for so many years by the Feds.
srsly

You are going to love what the Herbes de Provence does for your roast chicken 🍗 and your seafood bisque
Have some Free Mexican Air Force to go along with the vanilla!

Do we need to RSVP for the meetups? SO EXCITED for the OC one!
I'm cornfused. I thought the reactionaries liked it when women changed their names to match their nuptial Lord and Master?
They love it (because it renders the ladies ineligible to vote).
I want to ask a question about the Trump Administration ban on shipments from China?
Can anyone elaborate? I order a lot of stuff from Temu, and there is nothing on their website to indicate that service is interrupted?

I wouldn't worry too much. Trump should fold shortly.
folded like a napkin already per sources
Has Faux Snooze reported on his flawless victory yet?
Ooh, good to know, thank you!!
Villago Delenda Est, my friend for decades, passed away Monday night, a week shy of his 60th birthday.
I'm so, so sorry, PRW. I will miss him greatly. My condolences to you, and to his family and all his friends.
I met him at Robin's free pizza and beer event in Eugene--sorry to hear about his passing
*hugs*
I only knew him from his comments here, but he wss good people. Always smart, kind, and thoughtful. I'm so very sorry for your loss.
Sorry to hear that. I only know him from Wonkette, but I enjoyed reading his comments. *hugs*
*sits quietly head bowed*
*whispers:*
I'm so sorry. Words fail me, although tears do not.
I will definitely miss his discussions and his presence here. My condolences for your loss.
Thank you, PRW, for telling us. Village Delenda Est was a big presence here and will be very, very missed. I'm so sorry for your loss.
Oh what a blow, Villago was a sharp thinker and enriched the discussions here, I'm terribly sorry to hear of your loss. When a friend dies the heart is so filled with aching. Peace to you PRW, and to Villago's friends and family.
Very sorry for your loss and the community's...
Perceptive and funny, his participation in any thread was welcome
I'm very sorry for your loss. I enjoyed his comments very much.
I'm shocked and so sorry -- I always enjoyed his humor and good nature. My deepest condolences.
I like to think we had a playful relationship commenting back and forth to each other. I will missed him. I'm very sorry for your loss and hope his memory remains a blessing to you for many years more.
I'm stunned and very sad. I always welcomed his posts.
I'm so, so sorry for your loss 😢
It's our loss too
I was just commenting with him two days ago
I know you know this already, but he will be so, so missed
💔💔💔
😭😭😭
I'm sorry sorry for your loss. I wish you and his family healing and comfort in your memories.
We found out we lost Walter and Villago in one day.
This is a horrible day.

What, Walter is gone?
Oh no, Walter too?

Puppy Bowl is always an option.
Yeah. No.
Oh my gosh I love Shakespeare's! If I still lived in San Diego I'd be there.
