@verygayp I'm bi, but had a 30yr marriage to a straight man. My kids ask if I'll get a gf now? BTW, kids are all open or allies. Told them the same thing I told my mom. If I'm looking for happiness, why should I exclude half the population!
@FrankBr05713205 That's awesome! I the only girl in my high-school wood shop! While the guys were making ash trays and clocks, I made a full cedar chest. It lasted thru me then 3 kids as a toy box before it finally broke.
It appears that stopping a flesh eating parasite from spreading across the continent was, in fact, NOT waste, fraud, and abuse.

When I was growing up, I was told that anyone could be president of the United States, but I didn't think they were talking about rapists and pedophiles
The Nashville Zoo has launched a public campaign to block construction of a proposed 69,000-square-foot AI data center that would sit directly adjacent to habitats for endangered animals, including vulnerable clouded leopards.
Zoo officials warn that the facility’s constant noise, bright artificial lighting, and electrical hum could seriously disrupt animal behavior, stress levels, and long-established breeding programs. The zoo is home to more than 3,700 animals representing over 350 species and maintains one of the most important collections of rare and endangered wildlife in the United States.
This conflict highlights a growing backlash against the rapid expansion of data centers driven by the AI boom. These facilities require massive amounts of electricity and operate 24 hours a day, prompting communities nationwide to raise concerns about energy consumption, water use, noise pollution, and environmental impacts. Wildlife conservation groups are now joining the resistance.
More than 180,000 people have already signed a petition opposing the project.
The developer behind the data center states that it will use waterless cooling systems, meet all local noise regulations, and comply with environmental standards. However, zoo leaders argue that the location itself, immediately next to sensitive animal habitats, makes the project unacceptable regardless of technical mitigations.
The dispute underscores a broader challenge of the AI era: how to build the vast digital infrastructure needed for artificial intelligence without placing undue pressure on local communities, ecosystems, and wildlife.
Billionaires are blowing up rockets and building water-polluting data centres while i’m over here recycling toilet paper roll cores, using my own bags, not running the water when I brush my teeth.
Last night was Night 1 of the "Music America: The Songs that Shaped Us" two day concert
Here is Springsteen with @kennychesney doing a great rendition of Woody Guthrie’s "This Land Is Your Land"
This is how you celebrate 250 years of American music!
This LEGO video is hilarious.
But the fact that people halfway around the world are trolling trump about the Epstein files more aggressively than many American media outlets should embarrass the hell out of us.
Don't stop talking about the Epstein files.
This dad just got a denial letter from United Healthcare for his twins’ NICU stay… addressed to the baby.
Instead of sending the letter to him or his wife, United Healthcare addressed it to “Dear Baby Girl Twin A.” He and his wife are now being told they’re responsible for the cost of their preemie twins’ stay in the NICU.
As he put it, their baby’s first experience in the world is apparently having her health coverage denied.
Have you or someone you know ever dealt with a ridiculous insurance denial?
This one might be one of the worst I’ve seen.
So maga are all over Hunter Biden because of his past addiction, but take medical advice from a guy who was a heroin addict for 14 years with a dead worm in his brain.
There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man."
A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life.
Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.
Bryce Mitchell on Trump's White House UFC fight:
Our government is desecrating its role in society by entertaining sports. Our government is to protect and serve the people. Our tax dollars and resources are funding this operation. The government is supposed to protect us, not entertain us.
Richard Gere on Trump: “We’re living in the darkest moment that I’ve experienced on this planet. Whoever thought America could turn like this? Whoever thought that a maniac like this would be president and dismantle all the good things? America’s never been a perfect place, but it has a perfect ideal. First day this guy dismantled almost everything that was good about the US government and people”
