Left the birdsite on Sink Day; hoping to reconstitute my feed. It's now been over a decade of my being annoyed that "djt" is no longer a viable handle anywhere.

The Belgian men’s team players wearing the Rene Magritte jerseys with green apples in front of their faces.
The Norwegian men’s soccer team’s official team photo for 2026. They are kitted out as Vikings, on the beach of a fjord with longships.
A screenshot from intheweights.com describing me as an “electronic dance music producer.” Which, no.
A “Tom the Dancing Bug” comic from 2005 where Alito, who has just gotten an “I WILL OVERTURN ROE V. WADE” tattoo on his face, says that the tattoo was “a youthful indiscretion and does not represent my current views.” Senator Ted Kennedy buys this obvious bullshit.
Garak and Bashir kiss in the Lower Decks penultimate episode.
A screenshot of DownDetector showing that Paramount+ had no idea anyone would want to watch a stupid soccer game on Saturday morning, who even does that?!
A sad-face Windows crash screen above a road. The sky above it is gray. Caption by Tumblr user jellyfishdirigible: “The sky above the television tuned to a dead channel was the color of a different, much older reversion tuned to a dead channel”
L. Louise Lucas post: “Remember when Republicans drew Virginia's Congressional map so Black people were packed into one district and said we should be grateful they gave our community this district. NOW they can have one district and see how much they love it. Update: It appears they don't like it.”

Viorst began by asking him to discuss his aspirations. PLAYBOY: Senator, why do you want to be President? McGOVERN: Basically, because I have the confidence and the understanding to do something about the most important problems that confront the country to-day. It may sound old-fashioned to say that I love this country, but I do and I'm deeply distressed over the mistaken directions we're pursuing. We're on the wrong course in the world and the problems we're neglecting here at home have become so acute that 1972 may be the last turnaround chance we'll have. If we continue under the kind of leadership we've had in recent years, it's an open question whether our society can survive.
