Buffistas

Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

are they better than regular wheat thins, Consuela?

I made cupcakes and frosting, and brought it to friends. Then went to the store on the way back, but it was a poor choice, they were out of almost everything I wanted.

I'm just horrified by all the responses I'm seeing of people who are like "well the protestors deserved the violence the police were handing out". Which...wow.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm grateful I'm not seeing anything like that but I'm not surprised it's out there at this point.

I got a little done today, a little tidying, took out the garbage and got the can down to the street. I feel pretty useless, so I guess I should remember the little I am accomplishing?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Officers from the fucking county sheriff's office took down the American flag in front of the county justice center downtown and replaced it with the thin blue line flag. In broad daylight. There are photos of them doing it. That is horrifyingly authoritarian. I am disgusted.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Hope whoever's running against your sheriff next election got a good copy of that to run in their campaign ads.

He lost in the March primary (moved to April b/c of the coronavirus). What's more, he lost 30%-70%, after having won 2 consecutive terms as sheriff.

I am not sorry to see him go.

Herding cats for fun

Skipped today's family Zoom because I just can't interface with conservatives today. I'm weak. Then at 8:30 pm we got an automated robot call that the East Bay is on high alert due to protest activities and were advised to stay home. Like I would do anything else when it's almost time to get into bed and read awhile.

There is a second white bunny rabbit in my neighborhood. This one was sitting across the street and did not have the dark spot on the back. DH got to see it too so we are foolishly pleased at our nature sighting.

Hey. New board.

I haven't been this paralyzed by news in a long time. I just can't.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I'm so sorry, Buffistas. My heart is breaking for what I'm seeing.

And I'm sorry for my country's part in it (the training).

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Too many instances of cops firing on peaceful marchers, the press, people standing in their front yards.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

In Raleigh, 30 minute from me, the cops showed up in full authoritarian aggressive style and there was violence. In Durham, the cops didn't, and there wasn't. One could start to form a theory.
