I have plenty of time to observe juvenile scrub jays, and juvenile flickers, and I've yet to decide which are the dorkiest.

Cranky old farm-lady surrounded by apartments. Gardener, Birder, Don't Blame Me I voted for McGovern. Also: I assume other people's lives are at least as complicated as mine.

You know, it didn't take me long to learn that nobody gets everything they want out of an election, because the candidates have people giving them incompatible ultimata.

The number of people commenting on politics who would be left commentless if they were required to avoid idiotic generational terms is tedious. I used to be the mean person grading high school essays. They needed to be told to be specific and factual by their composition teacher.

Very much how I feel about the current public celebration of the Fourth. An early-summer friends and family is a great tradition; all that noise is stupid. When I liked fireworks was back when nobody would spend a week's wages on aerial displays.

The supremacist court—I don't think we should call them Supreme—shot the Constitution in the head in the name of defending the Constitution, because fascists, like all supremacists and other types of narcissists, only ever act from fathomless bad faith.

The LA Times and Boston Globe, at least, also make it difficult to use your subscription. They seem unaware that few online users read their paper as a daily unit but rather read articles as they are linked on SM, Reddit, Metafilter, et'c et'c and they require password sign-in every time

It's not Biden being old that keeps me up. It's this: 2025/26, bird flu grows legs, and instead of 20k dead in NYC its 200k, 10+ million dead in US instead of 1+ million, no relief, CDC gutted, no Fauci, and Jarred Kushner extorting the states during a full on big D Depression. That's Trump.

Every additional reference to the effects of the SCOTUS Trump vs US decision make me want to dose the majority side with larger and larger amounts of Owsley's best.

Note: I was working for the tribe when the final SCOTUS decision of Boldt came down, and wasn't that happy again until my kids were born, and I once turned around and went back up the aisle rather than passing Gorton in the theatre. I have no particular fondness for the Evans GOP.

WA-GOP is the absolute opposite of the one I grew up with and seems to consist entirely of people who've never heard of Dan Evans and think Slade Gorton was a commie for his role in the 9/11 investigation.

Mens pants used to be my default choice, but some time in the 90s the thighs and front were redesigned to emphasize the package and they both look ridiculous and do not fit a body with a six-inch difference between hips and thighs.

I'm pretty sure that if some Blue voters are keeping private guillotine lists, Jamie Dimon is in the top five for a plurality of them and top ten for a supermajority.

Yeah, I wore men's jeans for decades until they started being cut to emphasize the package. Now I make weird choices like wearing Old Navy's summer linen pants and getting them two sizes too big so I can put my Lumix in the pocket; it's unaesthetic but easier than dealing with stupid belt purses.
