Tater ate my American Express card. Does that mean I'm broke?

Maybe.

The Canstitution speaks of checks and balances. I have at least one of those things.

Maybe someone can help me out changing this subscription to a paid subscription - the Substack app says I can’t ’manage the subscription’ - if I go to the Intertubes - I get 3 pages of warning ⛔️ ‼️ ⚠️ that the site is not private - now I likes my Wonkette - enough to do a second subscription ‘just so I post a kitty picture as my icon’ - but not enough to post my credit card after that warning - confused 🤔 -

It looks to me like that warning happens every once in a while at random. I see you already solved your issue, so my advice is now pointless but you could have just waited until it stopped giving that message.

you can email me and I can forward you to support if you're not able to manage your subscription while you're logged in. As far as "this site is not private," you've probably got an old link to http:wonkette.com when it should be www.wonkette.com

You were right (of course) about the wonkette vs www.wonkette - (that fixed the Intertubes) - yay -

The subscription thing is my fault (of course) my Internet Personae that I use on my iPad was an account I had preWonkette - it’s attached to a throwaway email from long ago and far away - at least my iPhone is subscribed -

You are correct - I was using an old favorite to access the page - edited the icon - works fine - no warnings a happy site - sending calm waves of Yak bellows across the universe -

We had 130 mph winds last night. That’s not a misprint. Trees are down everywhere. No power, maybe not for days or even weeks.

I’m not talking about some far-off place. I’m talking about Houston, Texas.

I was watching a storm chaser live feed for a while, but I think I came in when winds were starting to abate a little. Hope everyone is ok.

When I was in high school, one of our theater kids did a masterpiece of drag as our (female) principal as the MC for the end of year grad and our principal loved it. That same theater kid was also the only white guy in the African dance class (surrounded by Black girls) because it was the only elective that fit into his schedule in senior year, and he had a blast and they loved him. He went on to be a Broadway troupe member. (He did not transition, although several other folks from our high school eventually did once they left for college, because drag performance and being trans are two wholly different things. Although I wouldn't have been surprised if he now identifies as NB. He definitely would have fallen under the more general "queer" category back in the day.)

All of this is to say that bigotry and bullying are cultural artifacts that CAN be stamped out of high schools by administrators and teachers who genuinely want to make all of their students welcome.

Its a choice by these schools not to do so. It's a choice to be hateful.

Not only did Alito fly a Stop the Steal flag but now he's blaming his wife for it. Which makes him a partisan, misogynist hack.

He is just being biblical. One of my "favorite" readings from the bible is in Genesis, where when God gets after Adam for eating of the forbidden fruit, that little weasel says it was the woman you made for me she made me do it. Then of course Eve blames the snake. Just like a couple of toddlers. After that women are often referred to as "the daughters of Eve" but men are never called the "sons of Eve". No doubt that means that men are produced by parthenogenesis but somehow from sperm not an ovum?

Technically god made Adam out of clay and breathed life into him. Then, later, he made Eve from Adam's rib. So Adam was a miracle and Eve a semi-miracle. But Mary, mother of Jesus was raped which is why I became an atheist.

Maybe Rudy needs a welfare check. I doubt he has cats, and I couldn't imagine that his tobacco-cured corpse would taste that good to them even if he did, so everything should mostly be there, should the worse have happened.

A mobik went to Ukraine and left his car. He asked his neighbors not to fuck with his car as he will be back and he will need it. The neighbors had other ideas about his possible return.

I love me an F1 weekend when I also have gigs booked, it's just more adrenaline all weekend. Then Sunday I'm going to a restaurant I've been told is THE BEST, and a show after (an EVETYBODY DANCE NOW kind of show, not the sitting kind) so my cup overflows.

First I have to weed the garden.

Love y'all, drink plenty of water.

Read the whole damn Jim Chambers article bc he was my classmate at bard (the first time, before he got kicked out for doing crack in the house his dad bought him near campus) and you’re right, he was exhausting lol. I don’t fucking understand how he could support Palestine and Russia at the same time, also Russia hasn’t been collective-communist since the bolsheviks took over the Soviet system sometime during the rev, you’d think the guy could read some Hannah Arendt at least…

Most of the characters are horrible shitheads, but the writing is really, really good. It's very dark, very funny, and and makes great fun of the Masters of the Universe.

Y'all guess whose baby boy drove through storms and the deep south to show up at his mama's doorstep! I'm so freaking happy! And his sister came over last night and for a brief shining moment I had both my (grown up) babes AND both my kitties under one roof. Nothing makes a mama's heart more full. <3

And then I woke up this morning and thought "that's a shitload (a pantsload?) of felonies, and Cohen went to jail for them... Maybe? Just maybe?"

Fingers crossed, sending prayers up for a great weekend for everyone here and cold justice for those who deserve it.
