$1 billion for ballroom? Definitely not socialism.

Saw a woman at Berkeley Bowl Market wearing a T shirt "I stand with the banned" and a stack of books. All titles that are getting banned. Of Mice and Men. Beloved. 1984 and others. I told her I liked the shirt, going to try to find one.

Sometimes mother nature gets revenge. A group of "trad wife influencers" got sick and started puking in auditorium after drinking raw milk. They were meeting to discuss setting up "natural immunity" daycare centers for unvaccinated children.


Natural immunity children used to be universal. Half died before age five. Women had ten or more children hoping at least two would live to adulthood. Suggest these privileged ladies visit a 19th century cemetery and look at all the graves of children dead from measles, polio, pertussis, diphtheria, tetanus, influenza, smallpox, typhus.

That Twitter account is satire.

That Twitter account is satire.

Seriously? Saw three reports.
Hard to tell what is a joke because they are all jokes.

MAGA is firmly anti vax and has a weird obsession with raw milk. But the story had red flags I should have caught. Lack of detail. No date and location of event, no name of sponsoring organization. No names of participants, no inerviews. Deleting my post.

Is it wrong if I'm kinda disappointed it's not true?

Like, it seems wrong... But it feels so right...

Santiago Campos, a high school student, won the Mike Wallace journalism scholarship. In his acceptance speech, he decried CBS, sponsor of the scholarship, from turning away from journalism to partisanship.

In case you missed it: last night, CBS News awarded the Mike Wallace Memorial Scholarship to Santiago Campos, a high school journalist. In accepting, he took the time to condemn the direction of CBS News to much surprise and applause from the audience.

Honestly ... Swap Newsom with James Talerico and let either he or AOC be VP/Prez and I'm pretty okay with it...

This just proves to me that MAGA is spiraling and starting to panic. Their fringe supporters are abandoning them so they have to ensure that their base is going nowhere (like they really had to worry about those idiots). So they make this shit up to play on their most basic fears. As long as the MAGA base remains, Trump has a private army to disrupt things if/when the election(s) don't go his way. Crap like this is just laying the groundwork for another insurrection by MAGA this fall......very deliberate and thought out.

Sigh. Aristotle did warn us about democracy, but we didn't listen.

Wow, whoever wears that must have killer stretchmarks.

Fun story: apparently the whole "rib" business is based on a mis-translation.

Animal Control officers in Alameda have issued warnings about flocks of aggressive wild turkeys. These large and angry birds have gotten into entanglements with humans and come out ahead.

"You slaughter millions of our kind every November..."
