I'm on the reservation list for a Ram Revolution, but I'm waffling on following through on it or not. I may opt to just keep my Ram 1500 for the things I want a truck for and get an Ioniq for commuting.

Is there a guitar you want but haven't been able to justify buying?

Nope. Lived in Atlanta since 84 and picked it up at church. Strangely never really heard it in NC.

Who hurt you, John? Or probably better to ask... what did you stomach do to you that you want to hurt it like this?

A vintage Ampeg SVT and cabinet, a signed first edition of Nine Princes in Amber, and a six pack of Dr. Pepper Zero.

Because the people controlling major media at this point actively want Republicans to win. Independent journalism disappeared in the 80s.

Many times. It's right up the road. We had one of the Bartow museum passes. As well, one friend was the photography curator at Booth and another the director at the Bartow Museum of History.

The only ones I have right now are Six Flags and the Aquarium. I'm about to drop six flags. I might pick the Tennessee Aquarium back up as it's only about an hour drive from where I live.

My daughter and I went to the Georgia Aquarium today as a fun outing. It was good to ignore <waves at everything> for a bit.

Doctors are idiots when it comes to weight--especially for women. The number of "if you'd just lose weight" horror stories I've heard is way too high.

Far too many guys have no idea how to properly frame the photo. The best current one of me (my profile Pic here) was a candid shot taken by my best friend (a woman) when we were at a show at 7 Stages. The ones I do myself are nowhere near as good.

I finally caught up on Interview with the Vampire. As someone who adores the Vampire Chronicles books, I have to note this was amazingly well done and I'm looking forward to Season 3.

That's completely fair. Although I'd argue working as a paramedic might be a better option rather than being shackled to a single hospital.

And impeachment is irrelevant if the opposition party doesn't control the House and 2/3 of the Senate.

@dungeondudes.bsky.social's video about what cantrip you'd want to be able to cast in real life got an immediate response from me:

Prestidigitation.

Please let me be able to cast a spell and have something immediately be clean. Please and thank you.

Get involved locally. Do what you can to flip things at the local and state level in addition to focusing on the National level. Which is partially a reminder to me to contact Shawn Harris' campaign to do what I can to help him send MTG home. 6/6

Just to note, this does not even touch what's needed at the state level. A lot of the gerrymandering issues are due to Republicans making a concerted effort to take over State legislatures to make sure they could draft the congressional districts. The Democrats failed to react properly to this. 5/?

At the end of the day, all three parts (at a Federal level) are required. I hope that the fall out from Dobbs will continue to push this forward, but it must be kept in the forefront of our minds going forward. Otherwise all progress of the last 60+ years will get washed away. 4/?

Of those two, expanding SCOTUS to 13 justices and enshrining in law that the number of justices is forever tied to the number of district courts requires a filibuster proof Senate otherwise the Heritage Foundation/Federalist wing of the Republicans will guarantee none of it will pass. 3/?

Why the Senate? Controlling the Senate isn't enough given the ability to weaponize the modern Filibuster. One of the biggest things Democrats need to do is to be able to expand the SCOTUS and, potentially, impeach clearly biased SCOTUS justices. 2/?

This is important to keep in mind. At a Federal level, there are three major goals: - Democrats retain the White House - Democrats retake the House of Representatives - Democrats obtain a filibuster proof majority in the Senate All of these are important, but the Senate one is the biggest one. 1/?
