This is how my bf's father, a long-distance race sailor, explained sailing to me when we were in college. It's probably why I've never bought a boat.

What a lost opportunity for the Tories when they could just auction off the top spot to the highest bidder.

A poster for the horror movie, "Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey." The bottom shows a heavily backlit bearish creature in a forest. The top shows a close-up of something resembling a person in a bad bear mask holding an axe that's drenched with blood.

I poked my nose in there the other day, saw some tweets from folks I follow there who aren't on B'sky, made the mistake of reading replies to their tweets. Jesus F. Christ, IDK how anyone can stand to post there anymore. It's like volunteering to stand on a corner so people can pelt you with feces.

I voted for the Green Party once, though it was for Nader. My wife stayed home that election. No big deal, it was just November 2000. In Florida. Decided by 537 votes. Just SCOTUS Roberts and Alito. Just wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. I don't vote third party anymore, once was bad enough.

The key issue here, however, is one of realism: It's fine to be a keyboard warrior and proclaim, "We must abolish all prisons!" or "Abolish private healthcare!" But the mechanism for doing so is non-existent, which is why Angela Davis has endorsed Kamala Harris. It's also why AOC works as she does.

From findagrave.com's terms of service: "Ancestry prohibits users of the Services from engaging in any activity that Ancestry...determines to be offensive, interferes with the rights of others, or causes harm to any person or entity." Worth complaining on their website, especially if you're a user.

When I was 16 I took SCUBA lessons, but after getting certified, I never went SCUBA diving again (although I still snorkel / free dive whenever I can). Something about being able to stay underwater for just the length of a breath makes it seem even more like another world.

These are the "doctors" who are going to come to treat you after you've eaten the lethally poisonous mushrooms recommended by an AI-produced guide to foraging, aren't they?
