First, you tell me to get a hobby; now it's an “appropriate hobby”.
And the not-so-secret third thing: complaining that nothing ever gets done
the median midwestern voter loves two things: electing republicans and thwarting republican policy goals via ballot referendum

I believe I have dranken more dranks than recommended by my local physician
Miller is a piece of shit. But be cautious about calling family photos of nude toddlers "CSAM." I've written about lives ruined over allegations that turned out to be harmless photos of kids taking a bath or running naked through the house. Moreno is already calling for prosecutions, here.
Max Miller’s lawyer admits to accidentally releasing ‘private images’ of daughter
Lawyers for ex-wife Emily Moreno said possible “Child Sexual Abuse Material” was included in a trove of documents the Ohio lawmaker publicly posted.

Three to five word sentences are absolutely normal for most kids at 30 months and if your kid can't do two word phrases at 30 months you need a referral to speech therapy.
Tapper: "Your ex-wife said your daughter said, 'Daddy angry,' and 'Daddy's house is scary.'" Rep. Max Miller: "She can't string together sentences like that. She's two-and-a-half." Tapper: "You just told me that she had said she was scared to go to 'mommy's house'...That doesn't make sense."
I somehow do not think "my ex-wife is the bad guy because she took the kid to the emergency room for a broken collarbone" is gonna go the way he thinks.
Rep. Max Miller: "When I was reported for child abuse of my daughter for a broken collarbone, my daughter was in my ex-wife's care 9 out of the last 11 days and she took her to the emergency room, which is a contempt violation from our shared parenting plan."
Lon Burnam, a former state lawmaker representing Tarrant County from 1997 to 2015, was carried out of the room by four sheriff deputies, who held him by his hands and feet: fortworthreport.org/2026/08/04/t...
Tarrant County judge removes attendees during public meeting about voting site reductions
Former state lawmaker Lon Burnam was carried out of the courtroom by sheriff deputies after O’Hare called speakers disruptive.

O'Hare just warned that deputies are prepared to arrest people. So far, he's flipped out twice: 1) a speaker said "bullshit" 2) a speaker compared Tarrant County Republicans to Russia
This is what they're voting on today: bsky.app/profile/jenr...
They're probably hoping you won't hear about this. But tomorrow in TX, Tarrant County officials meet to vote on a GOP plan to cut almost HALF of Election Day voting locations, plus 8 early voting locations, some of them on campuses. Not hard to guess why. fortworthreport.org/2026/07/30/t...
In TX: Tarrant County Judge Tim O'Hare just CLEARED the meeting room, kicking out public speakers who are opposed to the GOP plan to cut half of the battleground county's Election Day voting locations for November:

Anti-foreign content is nothing new on Chinese social media and dates back to the early days of Chinese social media. The age of AI has brought new dynamics to such content. Last year, AI-generated anti-Black videos presented cautionary tales about Chinese women becoming involved with African men.
i have a friend whose lung is basically epoxied to her ribcage because it kept collapsing, modern medical adhesives are wondrous
My husband had shoulder surgery and they just glued his skin together afterwards. No stitches, no staples.
and that's not even mentioning the other tapes, like, I have a roll of marine grade stuff that I'm going to try wrapping my rear wheel with next tire change so I don't have to deal with tubes anymore
Yeah, if showed a medieval artisan the aisle with JB Weld and Bondo products at your average car parts store it would blow their minds
this is specifically about wood glue in its details but modern adhesives more broadly are absolutely WILD, like often the best choice for permanently affixing heavy masonry and so on
Modern adhesives are underrated as great inventions of the 20th century. What woodworkers had to deal with before modern wood glue showed up sounds absolutely miserable. Smelly glue made from horses that had to be applied boiling hot, and didn’t even hold that well.
vhb tape: you mean I can affix a smooth piece of aluminum to glass and have it hold reliably for a decade, and I can just buy rolls of this shit?

Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media
My co-given-named Bluesky amateur* agent provocateur today said "People are telling me to look up Boots Theory, you realize that was something just tossed off by a fantasy writer?" There are some bears best left unpoked. I'm just saying. *Not that he's bad at it, just that he isn't being paid.
