Last Notes npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) Funny, I just heard a radio spot on this the other day. Probably on NPR. Our elections are run entirely locally, and each precinct reports its results to the state. If results or held up or contested, it happens on a local level. For the most part, even if a few are held up, the state can be counted and called. If they are, there are local, non-paritsan candidates who can (and would) sue. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) I don't think he's got the support this time around. Most coups happen with the national military, but knowing the veterans I know, ours simply has too many women in it to be that hard-lined partisan. We also have veterans serving as Democrats in political office, and several top military who served in his administration have come out against Trump. We're going to have a real problem with our policing for a very, very long time, however. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) That kind of thinking has already taken root (or never really died) in some circles, specifically Nazi and Nazi-adjacent circles. Maybe we really are queued up for a Eugenics war. There are some very interesting conversations going on about autism. If you haven't read this, I'd really recommend it: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/310415/neurotribes-by-steve-silberman-foreword-by-oliver-sacks/ npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) The ocean is a pretty big battery.... You know, I still have my grandfather's hand-crank auger. They'll just fabricate tougher hulls. We need to get directly into their heads, somehow. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) They make waterproof drills, don't they? npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) Out of my mom's 4 children, I was the one who decided to have one. Got them a CNA certification before college (resulted in a job from /hell/). That should be doable. I'm also the youngest. On #2, the idea is to get it to shrink by fewer births, not people getting swept into the ocean by the latest cat6 hurricane, or by being left outside to die of kidney failure. That we're arguing about the nits of abortion, but not how to do this shows how behind we are. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) Right. Old people can consume plenty. The glitch, IMO, is that too many can't afford what they really need. That we have to tax football tickets to make those ends meet is ridiculous. @npub1mvk…8tmn npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) Conversely, if the Democratic ticket would have made a point of courting green voters, putting more substantial policy plans in their docs, Gore would have won. Democrats in general need to figure out they do in fact kowtow to the dollar and tradition, to conservatism, maybe even enough to lose elections. I'm not talking about legislative compromise, It's platform. Stability, "peace", & bipartisanship really isn't what voters want, or get us there npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) I read "Ruse lectronics." npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) Is it volume that would fit shredding scissors? Five blades is probalby max, but you can do 3 sheets at a time. If you keep your stock lined up, you can cross-cut it. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) So may Hamas should do the right and politically smart thing and just release them. I'm not talking about a fancy hand-over, just dump them out to let them see for themselves what Israel has done to Gaza. Their stories, at that point, will be more valuable than their bodies. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) No one's ever called mine IBS bc I just medicate it when things even hint at getting dicey. Naproxen sodium (Aleve) OTC, and I have couple of prescriptions that slow things down, plus I don't eat to speak of. For the other, I take 2 or 3 Mg supplements and 2 or 3 docusate sodium capsules (much H2O). Two bedtime doses over 2 days if necessary. My fail safe solutions... so far. Most folks swear by psyllium husk (Metamucil). Beano and simethicone for gas. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) I think more of us are than most of us realize. I've been working my way though Star Trek lately. It's gloriously relaxing. What are you watching? npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) Well, then, you got this! Just savor that you're better than you used to be, and give it a minute to sink in. :) Yeah. It's hard. My dead man's yoga pose is more like a stick. I totally get it. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) It's brain-clearing time. It *is* productive. It's just hard to reconcile because the point of it is to feel like it isn't. Humans need to pace through a cycle of working and relaxing. If all you do is work, you're trying to walk with both feet in the air. Take a minute and feel the ground under your feet. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) How about Harlan Crow? https://www.propublica.org/article/harlan-crow-slashed-tax-bill-clarence-thomas-superyacht npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) Anita Hill? npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) And you keep the po-po armed & funded. It may feel good to you to go there, but slow & easy is also smart. Democracy is about critical mass. You don't have it. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) You make it harder to be a piece of shit, and you make it easier for mothers to raise sons who aren't pieces of shit, and you make it so women don't have to fuck those pieces of shit so more shit doesn't come out the chute. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) Do you know what I say to people who say, "That's just the way it is?" Yeah, don't make me say that. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) It didn't do anything to mitigate violence, though. The fight I'm fighting is bigger than just letting men keep shooting men and leaving kids in the crossfire. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) Well, not entirely. You can't just own a gun and make the rules. You have to be more organized and have more better guns. Let it be said, it's better to be on the side of the people with the more better guns and the organization to back it. There are ways. I encourage people to run for City Council. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) I use a municipal composting service. We have a huge, independent garden store that takes most of it, and some of it goes to local farmers who reliably sell at our (also municipally organized) farmers market. One guy started the whole thing just by having the right conversations with key people. 450K people in the county have access to the service. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) If you've got the dirt for it. I have some food in pots indoors, and that's the best I can do for now. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) All I can do is flinch about her hair, in the wind.😬 At least she's got some kinda glasses on.... npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) For real, that's how I give myself a hug and try to reassure myself I'm a decent human. It's not, by any means, how other people should go about nursing wounds, reorienting, or responding to a hit they took. I hear talking to friends helps most people the best, but I find my few friends tire of all the cogitating, and I get tired of dragging them through it. So, that's just where I'm at with it. npub13p3hyv3dckmqr3catcj35l829zq5r4qja6jx8q82x2jzcyxthwpqtgs0ff Janis (she/her) Cogitate a response that might get under their skin and clarify for them the ugly damage they did. That's not always as straightforward as it seems, as many don't give a f* if they're awful people. It's hard to find what they feel is important and appeal to that vs. a common sense of decency. If I think they'll go around upsetting other not-particularly-advantaged people (purposelessly), I'll report them. If there's a purpose, I'll try to point out how their method is ineffective.
