U.S. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard resigns after her husband has been diagnosed with bone cancer.
After 15 months, Trump has lost 4 cabinet members — all women:
— Secretary of Homaland Security Kristi Noem

This was the first to leave apparently on her own.

Heading to Des Moines and Minneapolis/St Paul, would love any food, drink, nature, and activities, y'all would recommend.
Molly's barking on the deck after dark. This is a timeout offense.
I don't care, fuck it. Mom's still out for the evening, and it's Friday, so, whatever, just don't be annoying about it.
I am the very paragon of inconsistent messaging.

I mean brey, every time I think the Vichy Establishment in America has hit rock bottom, they do something else that's completely unhinged to help the fascists. I don't think there is a rock bottom. I think they're gonna be telling you about how we can't talk about Dachau and the mobile gassing vans because it'll damage Reaganite candidates in marginal Heartland districts.
@AnarchoNinaWrites Spite for reagan is my requirement now. If you're a democrat praising fucking reagan you're an untrustworthy sack of shit.

Today I was in a sportswear shop in Denmark, where all items had two prices:
— A normal price which came with the requirement that you registered with them, so they can data mine your purchases.
— An almost 100 percent higher price which was offered to anyone who did not want to have their data mined.
I truly loathe this, but it is becoming more and more common in large retail chains in my country. Are you seeing this in your country as well?
What I often see these days, both online and in high street shops, is that you can buy certain items at a discount with a so-called membership. There are websites (Casio Watches, for example) that won’t sell a product unless you take a membership. You see this happening in other sectors too, such as pizza chains. No membership, no deal. The fact that a manufacturer decides whether you’re allowed to buy something is pure gaslighting, and I wonder if it’s even legal in the EU.
I saw a neon green CyberTruck today. In case you thought they couldn’t get any worse

When I ssaw her live I realized she was that extremely rare talent ... who had more resonances WITHOUT amplification.
My brother got to hold the flashlight to get her to the stage, and ... noted that she was always NERVOUS. Did she sound good? WHAT???
@geonz Yes. When she goes all brilliant with the power, there's a sense that there's more going on under and over the tone, that you can hear but not quite identify.
