Okay, there are Nazis dressed in all black waving Nazi flags on an overpass of I-75 about 12 miles north of downtown Cincinnati
What?!? I am horrified but not really surprised.
I did see video on BlueSky of a group of local people (ie, not Nazis) who got one of the flags away from the Nazis and burned it. I don't hate that.
We had nazi flyers left in the public library in Cincinnati when I worked there. And that was 5 years ago.
Onerosity confronted and conquered.
This could be a really useful mantra for the next four years.
::waves at everyone:: I'm somewhere between outraged and terrified by what's going on, and I know I'm probably missing a lot of the nuances because my knowledge of politics is a lot less sophisticated than most of you. But it's nice to see so many familiar pixels.
Hi Amy! Most of us are still pretty news-avoidant, but still discussing the horrors here when they slap us in the face despite our efforts. Like Nazis in our paths!
Brenda, you got a hamper from Fortnum and Mason! You won’t regret that for sure.
And now I have “It’s Okay to Punch Nazi’s” stuck in my head. Although Chapel Rowan and Sabrina Carpenter are also excellent earworms!
To paraphrase the Blues Brothers:
"
Illinois
Ohio Nazis."
"I
hate
Ohio Nazis"
Amy, great to see you! How are you?
And DCJ! Havent seen you in a while either! Hope you're well.
Timelies all!
Had an annoying morning. My badge wouldn't work at the gate, so I had to go in the visitor entrance. I had gotten emails yesterday claiming I had reported a lost badge and needed to make an appointment for a new one, which....no. I had reported a lost/stolen badge back in November, after my purse was stolen, but I got a new one then.
Luckily, I went to the badging office in my building and was able to get a new one. My guess is that our new AO accidentally made the report when she reported a lost key to the lab.(I reported this to the previous AO in November, and nothing was done about it.) Hopefully this is the end of it.
