I agree. I think we’re at the stage where the Democrats are the Whig party. They aren’t going to change, they need to be replaced with a true progressive party.
Assuming that we continue to be as much of a democracy as we were, now might be the time for that replacement to happen.

Every four years Jill Stein emerges from her burrow. If she sees her shadow, it will be four more years of fascism.
Goats! You get milk and you can sell your lawnmower!
Perfect solution. Everyone who wants milk just needs to have their own cow.
At the same time, striving for monopoly is the only way some segments can survive. An independent hospital is doomed, but a health system has leverage to get better reimbursement rates from insurance providers.
She’s trying to unify the Dem voter base in preparation of 2028
Hopefully she’s trying to unify the base in preparation for 2026. However, we’d probably all be better off if we abandoned the Democratic party in favor of a real progressive party that puts the needs of individuals over the desires of corporations and billionaires.
If the MRI is on fire, LET THE MOTHERFUCKER BURN!
My personal desktop machine is a Linux box I assembled from $500 worth of parts about 14 years ago. I’ve increased RAM and added about 8TB of storage for an Emby instance.
It still manages to get the job done, but it is obviously way, way, WAY overdue for replacement. We’ve been struggling financially for about 25 years.
Now I’m thinking I need to finally pull the trigger and get it done before January.
I do that with our guinea pigs.
They get a cookie* every day at 5:00 pm when I get finished with work. After 5:00, whether l come in the back door or just come downstairs from my office, they start wheaking and chewing on the bars of their pen (which they think encourages us to give them food for some reason).
Sometimes, after I’ve given them their cookie, I’ll go back up to my office. When I come back, they start acting like they didn’t get the cookie.
I just walk up to them and tell them that they already got it and they aren’t getting another. They stare at me for a moment, then just go back about their business.
I don’t think they actually forget they they got it. I think they just hope I might have forgotten. But it is interesting that all they need me to do is tell them they got it already and they give up.
* The cookie is a vitamin C supplement made of pressed hay with molasses as a binder. The molasses is why they lose their minds over them.
Remember to throw bacon on top of the peas ;-)
It just goes really well. The sweet of the peas balances the salt in the bacon.
We made Macaroni and Cheese, Peas, and Bacon tonight.
That wasn’t a picture of tonight’s. It’s an older picture. Looks the same though.
I wrote up the recipe a few years ago to add to the knowledge base at work, and I included a suggested serving size:
Customary serving size: enough to make you feel unwell, then 1 helping more
Edit:
If you want the recipe:
Cast iron feeding tube!
Why should I have to deal with someone else’s dog poop? Just take it home and put it in your own trash.
I don’t. Just carry it home. Why are people so damn irresponsible?
If you don’t want to carry the poop to your own trash, either don’t have a dog, or let it shit in your yard.
The terrorists in the middle east depend on the West not having the stomach to kill women and children.
Tell me if there will be any terrorists left in Gaza after Israel kills every man, woman, and child.
You can’t unlock the new fear. You have to read the instructions for the new fear to know how to operate the new fear’s manual release.
