- Tesco and I participated in a study about some dog cognition questions today. She is Science Dog.
- Some people have what is essentially the opposite of a “moral compass” which points them directly to ICE’s front door
- Cuomo’s campaign is the first time I have actually felt like the bsky bubble thing is reasonable, basically everything I see about him (haven’t lived in nyc for ~15 years) is appropriately negative (and true/accurate) but somehow he’s ahead? Even though he sucks such obvious ass?
- Boy are their arms tired
- Hey look on the bright side, at least “I’ll keep the $400 million plane after I leave office” is an admission he’ll leave office
- [party that spends years yelling that Hunter Biden’s laptop is the worst scandal in the history of the presidency] it’s fine for trump to keep a Qatari 747 for himself
- Genuinely don’t know how to come back from having so many extreme freaks like this in positions of national power.
- On our walk earlier a woman pulled her car over on a fairly narrow/busy street to ask if she could get out and pet her because she was having a rough day. I do not know who enjoyed the meeting more. This isn’t from then but whatever.
- Why would ICE stop doing horrific shit until someone faces a consequence for doing horrific shit
- Tale of Two Mayors
