Pike's Market

Seattle rage intensifies

Seattle freeze overwhelms rage. No words are spoken.

I can't even make myself rewatch it because the "scandals" that are at the core of most episodes are so mundane and plebian it just descends into a farce.

Hell, even the many scenes when they treat the Whitehouse as a kind of civic holy ground just don't work now. I just can't buy it after 4 years of that lunatic sitting behind the resolute desk.

According to another article, it was not physical.

Nuzzi confirmed that “earlier this year, the nature of some communication” between herself “and a former reporting subject turned personal.”

“During that time, I did not directly report on the subject nor use them as a source,” Nuzzi added. “The relationship was never physical but should have been disclosed to prevent the appearance of a conflict.

I expect some type of flirtation or sexting maybe? Neither is okay for objectivity, but brain worms don't have phone technology just yet.

So called "Romeo and Juliet" laws. If high schoolers are dating when both are underaged and one person turns 18, it's meant to protect the 18 year old from sudden sexual assault charges.

Sometimes it's defined as a year gap, like "you can be 2 years older and still date, but no more."

Musk was all to happy to comply with Turkey and India to remove accounts critical of their right wing governments. His justification at the time? He has to comply with the laws of the country twitter operates in.

So odd that it he opts not do the above when its far right accounts attacking the left wing government of Brazil.

It's almost like Musk isn't doing this for free speech reasons at all and is just selectively censoring people.

A different outlet did. The racist Lee who posted the cat thread said it was from "my neighbors daughters friend."

A fact check org interviewed the neighbor, and she said Lee was mistaken, and it was actually "a friends acquaintance." So yeah, right off it became way more ambiguous.

The other issue though is that in her racist tirade, Lee didn't just mention a cat. She also said geese/ducks had gone missing from the parks, and said she confirmed that with park rangers and police. She of course had not.

Most likely these two idiots got together, her and her neighbor, and each one ginned up part of the story, maybe literally. Then Lee posted it and "inadvertently" created a dangerously racist shitshow for her city and nation.

Didn't get this one, past vague horny vibes.

Looks like "mon-keigh" may mean she wants to eat him. That or keep him as a pet "mon-key?"

Shutdowns always piss people off, and the GOP is always rightfully blamed, no matter their spin.

A shutdown would probably shift things to Harris a solid amount, and lose the GOP the house and keep them in the minority in the Senate.

You can tell most in the GOP know this because every GOP senator is telling the house to cut their shit out, but they ain't gonna.

They verified that all of the devices were in the possession of Hezbollah before they detonated them?

Is what why their pager terrorism killed a child and caused 2000+ injuries, including dismemberment of other children?

Now they just repeated it, I'm sure with the same disregard for living people they have already shown.

Alien desolation. Something very human in his bent forward trudge through a strange land. A gun in his hand, maybe a sword in stone in the distance? One never knows what lies ahead, but onward we all go.

To paraphrase Donna:
