Guess what? Contrary to the recorded announcement I've been listening to on repeat for 15 mins, the app is NOT "fast! convenient! and easy!" if I have to spend half my morning creating accounts and searching a snake that eats it's own tail for a simple answer to a basic question.

It is impossible to check in for my flight on the website - I can only check in the app. Forget about that I don't have room on my phone or potentially data or wifi available... Also, spent 10 mins googling phone # for car rental because they don't list it. I hate this timeline so, so much.

✋ Families with car sick prone kids. Truly a life hack to just go ahead and admit you need something dedicated to the purpose and to stop fighting it.

It also makes me feel insane that the rat fuck around Biden’s age and mental capacity is being uncritically spread around by Democrats when Trump is *incredibly obviously* grotesquely mentally incapacitated, in a way that is genuinely terrifying.

It's important to note that Trump tried to order this at least twice we know of during his regime.

With less of a check on presidential criminality than many of us had been counting on, it becomes all the more important not to elect a brazen criminal to the presidency.

I don’t think it’s an exaggeration at all to say the decision threatens the Republic. I might not have said so in 2015, before I saw how triumphantly lawless and autocratic the President could be, and how so many people would applaud it or at least shrug.

Real question: What can we do about the Supreme Court decision?? Anything? I feel so impotent, and also like if we don't mobilize as a society before November, we will no longer have a democracy in which we can protest.

I sang "Somewhere Out There" for my 4th grade talent show and was so emotionally moved by the song that I started crying on stage.

We had Healthy Paws and they totally came through when our dog had cancer. We now have Figo, with no complaints yet (but also no real claims as of yet). Maintenance=probably not worth it. Catastrophic care? Definitely worth it if you get your dog as a puppy.

the Supreme Court’s jurisprudence on corruption is basically at a point where the only thing that counts as a bribe is someone handing a public official a giant bag of money with a dollar sign on it while saying “this is a bribe” out loud

And also, this largely ignores the increased risk factors of large groups! Like, I am not high risk and largely don't mask anymore, but I absolutely do at the airport or concerts because more people in close quarters=more risk. "I have concerns about Covid"/="too sick to.congregate."

For us, having the insurance when our dog got cancer meant the difference between trying chemo and immediately putting her down...and that chance meant EVERYTHING. If you have a breed prone to expensive diseases, and can get it while they're young and have no pre-existing, it can be worth it.

Uf. Advice from living in the SFV outside LA for several years with no AC: put buckets of ice in front of fans, oscillate if possible. Cover windows with aluminum foil. Put ice packs/frozen peas on pulse points. At night, wet your sheets and sleep on air mattress in coolest room.

It's not even in the top 50 reasons to fight against Trump's reelection, but do take a moment to consider how much Republicans would delight in completely ending all federal money for the arts and humanities. www.nytimes.com/2024/06/21/a...

Because Lutherans, Catholics, and Jews all number the biblical commandments differently, the Eagles' version sought a broader civil religious appeal by not numbering them. It's just a list of 11, or maybe 12, unnumbered, nearly-but-not-exactly biblical statements. Oh, and it was a movie promotion.

This is honestly tragic for NC. I'm a college consultant. Asheville's programs were decent and growing in reputation, and it was becoming a great alternative for dedicated kids who couldn't get into Chapel Hill. Where the hell are they supposed to go now?? This war on the humanities is devastating.

Went to the bathroom after all my meetings, and realize not only did I put my underwear on inside out this morning, but my pants are on backwards. That's right, I've been butt front all morning. It has been THAT KIND OF A DAY.
