MC’s blond hair likes to cover her face in wisps. It doesn’t seem to bother her, nowhere near as much as putting a clip in her hair to keep it back. Why Daughter Dearest won’t get her hair trimmed is beyond me.

He showed me everything, and I didn’t pass out (I’m guessing someone lost a bet). In retrospect, I felt bad for the wife, who was at least semiconscious through that & probably felt like a frog on the dissection table.

Yuck. Complain all you like. Needed or not, flareups suck. We got a good rain last night, and another about 3 hours ago. Not Beryl-related, but rain is rain.

I started getting them in college. My beard would show every naturally occurring color (but mostly black).

The Boy was born via C-section. I was in the delivery room with her, not peering over the curtain. But after, as I was walking out, the doc goes, “Hey. Have you ever seen a uterus?”

Hey just a heads up some of the new right are using the term national conservatism in place of national socialism ie Nazism as a dog whistle. If you see accounts or news outlets using national conservatism it’s highly likely it’s a Nazi account or outlet.

Chris, how would you characterize the split in MSM reporting of Project 2025, the Epstein Files, and Trump’s increasing incoherence vs. Biden stumbling in the debate and calls for him to drop out? 20/80? 10/90?

I’d settle for high quality filtration. Otherwise, why would I want to cram myself into a poorly-ventilated metal tube with 200 potential superspreaders?

My rain dance was successful: watered the garden, sprayed and dusted the tomatoes and kale. I could live without the close lightning shots, though.

Charlie’s optometrist has a mechanical owl whose eyes light up as it flaps its wings. I can’t remember if it hoots or not.

I brought home a heavy grill (not 400lb heavy, but more than wife & I could handle). I ended up taking the lids off (two chambers) and putting it back together in place. Would that work for you?

Looks like a Jenny to me. Males, at least around here, are darker and have that black “eyebrow” marking.

Well, that was unexpected. Rain and thunder, and quite a bit of it. Lots of wind, too.

I really wish people listened to those of us who have spent years studying and writing about the far right and the coup they have been planning for decades. Because now they are just straight up telling you their plans because they are so emboldened by the fascist captured courts.
