Imagine mentioning climate change and the raising temperature at an on-site meeting in TX when you, from BC, Canada get called into HR for being culturally insensitive. That shit may be illegal in TX but it’s not in CA. See you in court.

It’d be better if Pope Leo deputized and trained additional Vatican Guards and deployed them at various locations. Also a priest.

I’m perfectly fine switching back to a “feature phone” aka dump phone that takes phone calls and sends texts. If it also could be used as a music/podcast playiner, that’d be great too.

I wonder what would happen if the names, addresses, and schools of the families of everyone that works in the sheriff’s department were blasted out on social media.

Be sure to hydrate if you do.

Now that Youtube has returned to NO AD BLOCKING enshitification, I wonder what Youtube Creators are seeing with their viewing metrics. I switched to In Cognito or Private viewing, which may effect their metrics and monetization.

I had a family friend of my Nana from Hungary make a dessert from blueberries before my eyes when I was 14.

Rinse and place blueberries in a saucepan. If they’re a bit tart, add 1 or 2 Tablespoons of sugar. Warm of medium heat until some of the berries pop, creating juice. Optionally, add 1 Tablespoon of lemon juice. Remove from heat and let cool. Serve warm or chilled with a large dollop of sour cream.

I left FB before the pandemic and don’t regret it. When I still had an account, I had to verify my account by sending them my DL. I did it but blanked out my address and DL #. That was invasive enough. This is just insane.

I wonder if anyone in the Badminstration, specifically the Department of Agriculture, have thought about all the crops that will go unharvested in the fields starting around August because migrants won’t go out to pick them for fear of being deported by ICE.

I have long fantasized about doing this exact same thing, especially to MAGA-types who somehow got my address and are mailing me requests for donations. Someone in those groups as well as THE SALVATION ARMY have discovered that those postage guaranteed reply envelopes cost money and prompt this response. So now all that stuff requires a stamp if you want to reply. I hope that’s cut down on their fundraising efforts.

Love that dad has a Caffeine coffee cup.

When I make Scampi, I use the shells to make a shrimp stock to cook the shrimp and butter. Broiling jumbo shrimp with Bay’s Seasoning in the shell means I take the shell off before eating it.

When that bicycle rider flipped off Trump’s motorcade during his first Badministration, the social media blowback got her fired from her job. She ran for Congress and won.

I hope this woman has a similar outcome.

Side query: I wonder if anyone in Child Protective Services is investigating Melon Husk’s home environment for his kids. He’s an resident alien who lied on his immigration paperwork and could be subject to deportation.

Gave up on them before the pandemic lockdown. They are a good indicator of toxic jobs.

Never talk to management over the phone. Get it in writing either as a text or email.

I read a post on Mastodon from someone in Ontario Canada that was proposing shutting off all export of oil and electricity to the US. The thing that made me doubt this was they were also calling for impeaching 45 (again!). That would leave Vance which scares me even more.

My father’s career advise to my brother and me was “Make lots of money so I can come live with you when I get old.”

My brother didn’t like that advise so he did a bunch of research and asked a bunch of people about their careers. He got a masters in an Engineering field but hated working in that field. So he got another masters. He doesn’t use it for his career.

I studied Chemistry and left grad school to do software development with no degree in it (it was the 80s). I never used my degree either.

Confronting my dad about his bad career advise would have just gotten his Standard Response to Criticism™–But I’m lovable.

And no he never lived with either of us. But then he never go old.

When some random #MAGAidiot complains that one of Trump’s new policies is hurting them, instead of blaming Trump, just remind the idiot “Isn’t that what you voted for?”

Also, when some #MAGAidiot complains that Trump’s new policies are impacting them, don’t blame Trump. Ask the idiot “Isn’t this is what you voted for?”

“Straight boys are so clueless when someone is flirting with them.”

7 second pause.

Blink Blink. Stammer. “Ummm.”
