Dad to Bambam, my (almost) senior rescue Chihuahua. Remembering Butterbean 🌈, my previous rescue Chihuhua. Living in the beautiful historic district of Savannah, GA, where I'm car-free and get around by bicycle and walking. Progressive Democrat. He/him
Hoping to retire comfortably but as an American the odds are better I’ll just get shot at a grocery store
You guys almost made The Rapist Racist War Tourist with the Nazi tattoo who was at Abu Ghraib into a Senator because you thought he would vote differently than Susan Collins. He wouldn't have, by the way.
Rick Perlstein@rickperlstein.bsky.social · 5d agoA watershed piece. America will have have a very hard time becoming less imperialist as long as combat service is sentimentalized and fetishized, when it actually tends to turn men into broken, hateful people, and helps make things like like Trumpism happen. www.newyorker.com/news/the-pol...
Since I live in Georgia and am therefore a Falcons "fan," I don't get to celebrate many wins, but I still get to hate watch shitty assholes like this and celebrate their losses.
Denny Carter@dennycarter.bsky.social · 2d agoIt’s August 2026 and Aaron Rodgers is having a full blown meltdown about Anthony Fauci.
I know they get hate from both critics and fans, but Mortal Kombat and MK2 back-to-back make a really nice set-up and pay-off. I really enjoyed this.

Here's more on the Starland break-ins www.thesavannahian.com/no-sense-of-...
'No sense of urgency': String of Starland and midtown break-ins prompts criticism of police response
“How many break-ins have to happen at 11:45 pm for y'all to have someone on patrol at 11:45 pm in this neighborhood? It's not rocket science.”

city trees@citytrees.bsky.social · 4d agoJust horrible. A Black-owned business targeted for multiple break-ins, in a rash of burglaries stretching from MLK to Starland. I sure hope the SPD gets on top of this. www.wtoc.com/2026/07/31/s...
Love to spend half a million bucks to join a golf club that's constantly being cited for health code violations, and have to lose all the tournaments to the owner who then posts about how all the members suck at golf.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3d agoTrump: “The Winning Shot in the Bedminster Club Championship! Thank you very much to all of those who participated. I won with a 70, & am so honored in that, unlike the rest of the field, I’m given very little time to practice, bc I’m focused on many other things. It’s called TALENT, and I have it”
Holy shit did Dana lose a bet or something? Her show is just a merry go round of the most skin-crawling pieces of shit this miserable country has to offer. This is some version of Hell for sure.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3d agoBASH: Do you think the anti-weaponization fund is a good idea? JIM JORDAN: Well, it's no different than what Merrick Garland did with Peter Strzok and Lisa Page BASH: So yes
I can't remember the last time I saw a Sunday shows lineup that was good, actually, but this one was really just off-the-charts shitty. RFK and Jordan back-to-back was incredible in the worst way
@GottaLaff@gottalaff.bsky.social · 3d agoJust this morning alone: Unhinged RFK Jr. Unhinged Jim Jordan Unhinged Sen. John Kennedy Unhinged Max Miller. What do they all have in common? 🤔
A little curious what's going on here? Like, am I the blocker or blockee?
Omg Sen. Kennedy (LA) just referred to the "Graham Platner wing of the Democrat party"
Just gross, naked, condescending misogyny, but what did anyone expect?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3d agoRFK Jr: Dana, you probably don't understand this because you're not a scientist BASH: Well you're not either! RFK Jr: I know you're flustered now
RFKjr lying his ass off in that gravel-gargling voice on CNN's SotU. I hate him so much. The only candidate who ran in the Dem primary I would never have voted for, even against Trump.
This is hilarious. I actually logged in to tiktok to leave a comment for her: "Hey, it's the white lady who called 911 on the Black bird-watcher in Central Park. As I recall, she claimed he slapped her dog, too.…" www.tiktok.com/@tayy_jayy/v...
My honest review of Savannah, Georgia… and it’s not the one the tourism board wants.

Foolish of Trump to keep this reflecting pool nonsense in the news, but he is, so here's a gift link about it. If the comments are any indication, he has completely lost the WSJ readership. They're still conservative as ever, but real tired of his shit. www.wsj.com/us-news/trum...
Trump Team Feuds Over Whether Reflecting Pool Was Hit by Vandals or Botched Work
President Trump criticized Jeanine Pirro, his appointee as U.S. attorney, for dropping the vandalism charge.

@ajc.com just gives the GA Republican party chairman a platform to trash Democrats in an op-ed. I'm looking for but not seeing a balancing piece by a Dem? Doesn't seem like the first time I've noticed them doing this either. www.ajc.com/opinion/2026...
Georgia Democrats state convention will double down on a losing agenda
Georgia Republican Party Chairman Josh McKoon argues that Democrats during their Savannah party convention will be focusing on old and tired ideas that voters will reject.

Today's Low Quality Ad is for this Capybara Bath Pin. This is the American dream. It's also the Japanese dream. The Kenyan dream. If anyone anywhere has a dream, it's this. collabs.shop/uaagmm
I hope I did the right thing. I have some neighbors. Don't know them and don't particularly want to. But their back door was open last night, and then still open this morning, with the light inside still on. Unusual for them. Cars there. Haven't seen them. Called police nonemergency for a check.
It should have been obvious from this trailer that the new GitS series would be very original-manga/'90s-styled. For some reason I didn't set my expectations accordingly. Now, having watched a few minutes of the 1st episode, I need to take a little break to get my mind in the right place to continue
