I love that people can make art out of stupid comments by politicians

Just keep the treated clothes away from cats, it’s toxic to them even when dry

It looks like moon face to me

As far as I can tell it’s not yet published. Why on earth would this be reported if it hasn’t made it through the publishing process? Lol

Here is a reaction to the findings that were presented at the conference mentioned in the op article.

Carroll said investigators believed the suspect was armed with a shotgun, a handgun and knives. He also said the suspect was believed to have been a guest at the hotel.

It amazes me that there has been four (I think?) close-ish attempts on this man’s life in the last decade, three in the last two years, and things like this still get through.

I think so, too. This is why it’s important to talk about non-combat PTSD. So more people get the help they need, and there’s less stigma around it.

I did mean it in the dragon context, haven’t had my coffee yet xD Thank you for the correction

The article is confusing because it paints him as a “highly respected” ethical hunter and conservationist that hunts under culling licenses, but goes on to say the duiker he was hunting is rare and elusive. Wikipedia lists it as near threatened.

Man had a horde hoard of animal trophies too, so it seems like he just found a loophole to killing and collecting animals in a ‘respectable’ way

Edit: pre-coffee typo :)

I’m a Navy veteran with service connected PTSD. People question if I have PTSD sometimes and it does indeed piss me off, but I’m not out here claiming to have been blown up while serving. People are starting to become aware that PTSD doesn’t always stem from combat, and that awareness will help more people going forward. Mine comes from being attacked and raped by my shipmates, I didn’t expect to survive it.

I don’t feel disgust that USA Today asked him about his service, instead I wonder why he didn’t have a better response. He could have offered education about PTSD or said he wanted to increase transparency around disability ratings in the VA, or any number of things.

It was by an unmaintained strip of lilacs that acted as a property fence. Definitely had some invasive weeds but I suspect not watering them every day like the rest of my backyard killed them. I did need to dig up some Chinese elm saplings a few times, but I’ve had to do that on the rest of my property too

I wonder if it’s location dependant? I threw some native wildflower seeds in half of my backyard just before winter set in and it grew into a mini meadow the next year without any further input from me. I didn’t even water it

There was an article a few weeks ago where folks were interviewed at a gas station in Pennsylvania. Two of the Trump voters who was fine with the higher prices said it was an acceptable price to pay to keep the nation safe. They really thought Iran was going to attack the US, possibly with nukes.

I have no hope of changing the minds who fervently believe in that crap

I wish I could get her to watch ds9 with me, I imagine Vic Fontaine would be her favorite character though

She believes in aliens too, but not in the sense of little green men. She claims that they are prophets from the old testament that time travel, she always mentioned that passage in Kings with a burning chariot in the sky when she was talking about aliens. She gave me a book about it once, I kind of wish I had held on to it for the laughs.

I’ve mentioned this before, but my grandmother fully believes in Bigfoot, and claims there are sub-species of Sasquatch that she’s personally seen throughout the US. Debunking this movie won’t matter to her, I doubt she’d even consider for a moment that the footage is fake.

What a terrible day to be able to read

He asked if the guy was right-winged. Yes, he was.

He was also anti-goverment following the killings in the siege at Waco, which is why he bombed that federal building.

Timothy McVeigh did the OK city bombing, and he was a registered republican.

I think it’s because she’s under investigation for money laundering.

Good to know the crusades are back, I guess. How is he going to square the US running this war with Israel though?
