It blows me away tha podcasts aren’t eligible for @pulitzerprizes , and that the op-ed that started the debate with @ttuberville isn’t eligible either. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/05/18/overturning-roe-disastrous-america-military-readiness/

Tonight’s Snooty antics. After finishing three fairly large worms, he relieved himself. So I gave him a foot bath. He seemed to really enjoy sitting in the warm water. He definitely enjoyed the follow up snuggle and drying off.

re: Pete Davidson speaking on Gaza, Israel, and loss
@AlliFlowers @raf @moondog548 @mekkaokereke They care enough to send warships and arms.
I’m not going to argue that our democracy isn’t broken. I know the score. But I’ll take the risk of wasting a few minutes of my time, in exchange for any chance of helping to avert a genocide. It is literally the least I can do. (It also isn’t the only thing I’m doing.)

Louisiana is slower in most things… including its movement toward Florida-style fascism. Look for it soon.

We would be greatful if you could amplify our voice & let your followers know that the Auschwitz Memorial is present in #fediverse: @auschwitzmuseum
Every day we commemorate the victims & educate about the tragic human history of #Auschwitz.
Auschwitz is a place that shows where hatred, antisemitism and contempt for a fellow man led people decades ago.
It is also a place where we should reflect on our individual and collective responsibility for the world we live in.

New York Times is doing a great job of playing Captain Obvious. RW news outlets blame Joe Biden for EVERYTHING so this is completely unsurprising.
WTF.

#Slaughter at a #Festival of #Peace and #Love Leaves #Israel #Transformed...the white flashes of #Hamas# rockets from #Gaza, the fire at dawn signaling an #attack that would turn fields full of young #Israelis dancing to #psychedelicmusic into a #slaughterhouse. In this #massacre of its #youth, Israel’s 75-year-old quest for some carefree# normalcy met the murderous fury of those long-oppressed #Palestinians who deny the state’s right to #exist. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/15/world/middleeast/israel-music-festival-massacre.html?unlocked_article_code=CbVbvqLRveSSZ3Dn-0OhK3MKfHf7JrMrLfA8bvQN1nj3pT5MmiKR-ci5-1ErpiBpbhrS4_a3Jdi6uWY5gcT20MTMmf1EP6jFF-TCzUY3japg0SJVAzdpLAhzUJAkGQc5G62wSQunzhQrCbZa6KrmXjG8uucrEbYcl0UP1-lH4LP5a5YtmNYQWpRGD3sm3fACT2VtgQ6SUhsk4fQHnXUvJa3smXeTObz936wYMSavBmMVGVNbRI-skLQXbVvTUOmI8uFQdhR8FvX7A5hm7kBMH9Pi9nLowA4ykQH2s8uQJDBDgI_thdmqSD5q3nmJW9LNh6qjhBv4OvCWyK-IJycBgjfvd_2w5H9VSMUcglm7A7hWQw&smid=url-share

MSNBC:
Military analyst: Hamas is losing the second phase of their plan already
Dana Bash to retired Gen. Wesley Clark:
“Just to underscore what you said, which is that, Hamas which is suppose to be the leadership of Gaza, is trying to prevent innocent civilians from getting out of harm's way and getting out of a war zone, because they think it helps them in the propaganda war.”
