@jeffowski Video Killed the Radio Star

The only thing that would have made it better would have been if the “1812 Overture” was playing while the verdict was read.

@RickiTarr I do a couple hours a week where I get donuts and coffee and whatever I think folks might need and hang out in Augusta near the shelter. Foster kids, lgbtq kids that were kicked out, people bankrupted by medical bills, veterans, caretakers who lost their home when the person they were taking care of died. I don’t have money to do much more than coffee donuts and socks and dammit I shouldn’t HAVE to.
There is no safety net. There aren’t resources in place.

So I spread hall a truckload of mulch today ( no I don’t rake before it goes down, just pull emerging grass ) and the native perennials seem to be propagating as they ought to. Kind of overwhelmed with Lupine so I’ll have to thin it out so the tickseed , ditch lilies, et all don’t get crowded out by their carrot sized roots. Blackberries and blueberries got some love and the Rosa virginiana got side dressed with manure.
Ten hours work adult beverage time.

@jeffowski when nothing you do makes them happy you have a tendency to say fuck it and do what you want.

@Antiqueight @lilithsaintcrow I interact with family on Facebook and no one else.

@flexghost Cat turd has probably purchased a vacation home in Monaco with their share.
I could puke.

@StillIRise1963 yup, my gramma sat me down and had that talk when I was still in high school. She called it “mad money”. Put that money by, cash in the coffee can is an investment in safety.

@mekkaokereke do NOT get in front of my mother and her friends when UConn women are playing. All these women in assisted living who were never allowed to play sports are rabid women’s basketball fans. It’s wild seeing women in their 90s screaming and hollering and it’s also really beautiful.

@me there are people from Xitter I miss but on the other hand I haven’t been threatened with physical violence here.
I love the conversations and the variety of interests and ideas as opposed to the toxic echo chamber.

@jeffowski legal in Maine. More dispensaries than churches which is just the way we like it.

@arstechnica yet another reason to find a local pharmacy rather than a national chain.

@researchfairy I thought it meant throw out some bullshit to salve people’s consciences. Huh.

@StillIRise1963 I’m 65. Domestic violence was considered a family matter. No one was prosecuted for it, women were told by their various churches to do better and endure.
Rape was impossible to prosecute. There was no Miranda Law. No fault divorce did not exist. My mother had to get written permission from her father to go to college.
Abortion was illegal at every stage. Segregation was the norm. Civil rights did not exist.
They want us to go back to that time.

@futurebird they’re so dramatic about it.
