I made some scotcharoos today for the 5 teenagers now staying here. The scotch chips the kiddo visiting from the US brought, and the Rice Crispies from my trip to UK last summer. I was shocked at how fresh they still were when I broke the seal on the bag. I had a bowl in celebration.
Poor young man visiting us from the US. He forgot there's little to no AC. 😭
We got him. But not before he sent a video saying he was lost on the way to baggage. These guys are going to give me a heart attack today. 🤣

These young men have never been good at coordinating or planning when it comes to doing things together. "What is his flight number?" "IDK" "Well, what terminal?" "IDK" "What time?" "Like 11 something." "11 what? What did he say?" "He said 11 something."
I will never be able to buy a house in Germany because I can't get a loan. Cancer patients are barred. 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠

I dont think anyone should know that 3rd party apps like Make or n8n can assist with setting up scraping and polling so that this exact same data is free and just as instant.
Rep. Emanuel Cleaver@cleaver.house.gov · 2d agoWhile millions of Americans continue to struggle with the costs of groceries, gas, and rent, the President of the United States is abusing the powers of his office to further enrich himself.
If you are an expert on air quality and have 10-15 minutes to talk to me today or tomorrow about important things journalists should know while reporting on wildfires and smoke, my DMs are open, or you can email me at karen at OpenNews dot org.
watching cis women fight so hard to exclude trans girls and women from the very sports they were segregated into is weird. Your sport isn't exclusive, you were put here so you don't bother men, so they can more easily marginalize you and not pay you. And you want to do that to trans people? Delusion
Play hard to get. Ignore Iran and act disinterested. Move them from the Enemy Zone to the Friend Zone. They'll start asking us if we want a deal.

My kid's history teacher told the class that ICE hasn't killed anyone. She is an American. We had a kiddo overnight and they asked me if it was true and I told them the truth. 🤷♀️ Its a teeny school so im sure it will get around that ******'s mom says this and that. I don't care.
There is no version of yourself you could become that would satisfy the people who hate you. So you might as well be who you are.
Oh he didnt throw the bottle AT her, just to the SIDE of her. Got it. 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠 Stop excusing white men being abusive. Throwing things during an argument? A red flag. Expect better.
Cat Alyst 🏳️⚧️🇨🇦 (they/them)@catalystmeow.bsky.social · 3d agoRepublicans pretend that Troy Jackson hit a woman. In 2021, Troy argued with Heather Sanborn. Troy got frustrated and threw a water bottle. However, • he aimed his throw away from Heather, • the bottle hit no one, and • Troy apologized for his outburst. That's the truth. #USDemocracy #MomSky
Multiple people were killed and at least two others were injured earlier today in yet another senseless mass shooting, this time at an In-N-Out in Twin Falls, Idaho. America’s gun violence crisis is out of control. We need immediate action now.

~10,000 people died from the heat in Germany this summer, and nobody does a damn thing because the majority of them are elderly women. "Elderly women live longer." So the fuck what? We shouldn't try to protect them? I'm so so so sick of women being tossed aside. www.dw.com/en/more-wome...
More women die in heatwaves, but biology 'isn't main cause'
In country after country, more women are dying from the heat than men. But researchers say biology isn't the main reason. Age, working conditions, and unequal access to rest may drive the gap.

I did tpo many things today. I made chocolate chip cookie bars, I made dough for the pizza tonight, and I watered my tomatoes. 1) it's too damn hot and humid 2) the oral chemo toxicity still has my brain fucked up. 3) 4 teens in the house because theres a sleepover.
I'm not going to post mine because infosec, but its shocking to see words that I thought were much newer, and other words that I thought were much older in my birth year.

Let’s be clear here, when scientists say mistakes were made at the start of the pandemic, we DO NOT mean that we did too much. We mean not socially distancing quickly enough, not making tests widely available, and not acknowledging COVID is airborne and distributing N95 masks to everyone.
It's just kinda funny how Dems do in fact have deep, consistent rural strongholds. All over the US! And even most Professional Rural Understanders I've run into just... can't see them. Or figure out how to work with them and build on them. For some reason haha it's so crazy
Most rural areas have a ruling class. And they want cheap unfree workers & to pass their fiefdoms on tax-free forever. It ain't rocket science. The fact that we're scared to talk about THAT, ime, is what's costing us a lot of rural voters!
christ if that’s not a metaphor for our times

If you're not sick of me here, I'm going into more depth about my cancer shit here in Germany on TT and Insta (@healingwhilesuzi). And I also post adorable kitty videos:
It's so hot and dry here that the corn in the field behind our house has the leaves not only stretching to the sky in thirst, but curled up and dying, the ears drooping and dropping from the stalk. There's no significant rain in the forecast.
