at a booth for ASH
I'm pretty sure she means "A Soldier's Hands" and not Anthony Stewart Head.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Ha, ha, ha! Yes, dcp, thank you! But I would absolutely work a booth for Anthony SH. Just sayin', if it ever comes up.

I joined some friends Pokémon-ing at a local mall. I don’t remember the last time I was in a mall. I’d heard malls were dead, but it looked pretty busy, and not just with other people catching electronic beasties while hanging out in AC.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Did a short grocery run after lunch, then reshelved a bunch of books.(All of the book boxes in the living room are unpacked. Still have to finish unpacking the book boxes in the basement.)

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
It sounds like someone took a shot at Trump in Pennsylvania. Maybe nicked an ear?

It wasn't me, I swear.

I'm a really freaked out about what the reaction and response of Trump supporters is going to be. I've been worried that if he died of natural causes or from an accident it would fuel conspiracy theories and bad behavior. I never wanted him to be assassinated because that would make him a martyr. So this is just....yeah I'm not feeling great about his supporters are going to react.
Am I being dramatic?
JenP - Jul 13, 2024 4:21:57 pm PDT #1511 of 4215
Not dramatic, but I don't think it will trigger anything materially horrific in response. I'm honestly aghast at my glib response. Normally I'd be horrified by such a thing. I've lost some of my humanity these past years. Or, at least, it doesn't extend the way it used to.

As the secret service hustled him off to the armored car, a bunch of folks in the crowd turned to flip off the media stand. I suspect the MAGA crowd will be the same but *more* for a while.

I keep feeling like this is one more plot point in a prequel to a dystopian/post apocalyptic story that shows how things to got to be the dystopian/post apocalyptic nightmare that everyone loved to read about (but no one actually wants to be a part of in reality)
