BTW this week of ALL weeks, our senators/reps will be listening VERY CLOSELY to constituents. Call their offices (the one most local to you is best, if they have multiple) and tell the very nice staffers what you think about any and all subjects that are important to you. Make yourself heard.

I am once again begging the skyline to use alt text and not repost things which are missing alt text. Among other things, a lack of alt text means a lack of being able to filter things out using Mute Words. This means a lot to me! Thank you in advance.

There are so many other useful things this senator could be doing with his time, like signing onto a special counsel to investigate Justice Thomas or backing moves to impeach Alito & Thomas. So many other possibilities 'for the good of the country.'

Well friends, the two-week US stay is nearing its end. More than many past visits, this one was geared towards the teen's interests, plus spending time with his adult brother. I think we covered the major bases without incident which I consider a win. 😌

This story reveals so much about how the leadership classes across industries and organizations have adopted neoliberal doctrine as sacrosanct. This case is particularly wild.

Now realize that the only US TV broadcasts I can watch for longer than 2 minutes are sports: Soccer, lacrosse(?!), basketball. Everything else strains my patience.

If you don’t watch cycling I want to share the joy of Eritrean Biniam Girmay, who is the first Black person to win a stage in the Tour de France and now won his second! In the first week! And he’s in green, which means he’s winning the most sprints (and beating Jasper Phillipsen, which is great.)
