the pixel 6 night vision is mind blowing. this was shot in complete darkness no flash
I don’t think i enjoy anything as much as I enjoy cooking in summer with fresh seasonal produce from local farms. yesterday roasted squash blossoms stuffed with sauteed wild mushrooms and green onions mixed with goat cheese. today sauteed fiddleheads with green onions. tomorrow sauteed garlic scapes and asparagus. the main meat course almost doesn’t matter as much as these sides.
this is an insane article and criminally implicates both Jeffrey Clark and Donald Trump
it’s only one poll and way early but fettermans up by 9 and shapiro’s up by 4. let’s fucking go PA. the only way to destroy trumpism is by destroying donald’s dirty insurrectionist proxies
one single extraordinarily mediocre mentally incapacitated narcissistic man has managed to compromise the entire electoral system of the United States of America. just fucking breathtakingly dumb.
this is intent. donald is going to prison.
always remember tomorrow whatever
it shouldn’t be this hard for white people to be fucking mad and concerned about a violent attempted coup. are you still thinking this can’t happen in this country because only brown people do it? even though it literally happened on live tv? and is literally still happening as we speak? put your fucking kids to bed and watch the fucking hearings.
my hope for this country is based on this:
there are two kinds of Republicans. the trumpists, the full on anything goes fascists, violent terrorists, shitting in your fist and smearing it on the Capitol walls psychopath republicans.
and then there are the bill barr be a complete asshole but within the limits of legality asshole Republicans.
I’m hoping whoever wins the primary, the other side won’t vote for them and the January 6 hearings are kind of insinuating that it might actually happen.
at the naturalization interview
USCIS officer: have you ever committed genocide
me: lol
USCIS officer:
me: no ma’am I have never committed genocide
just realized that soon I’ll never have to deal with the US immigration service ever again and got mildly aroused
the uscis already sent me an oath ceremony notice. it’s Tuesday after next. looking forward to returning my 2016 green card with no Donald face on it and watching a video of Uncle Joe welcoming me to the United States. feels like I timed this shit perfectly
the pa gop has no idea what its up for in the next election. now that I’ll be a citizen I’m gonna do so much voter fraud. gonna register my dog as a voter. gonna buy five different dollar store sunglasses and vote five times. gonna die a whole bunch of times just so I can vote as 8000 dead people. gonna stuff a bunch of ballots in my hammock and lie on them naked and then set them afloat in the river. so many possibilities. the pillow guy gonna be busy dealing with my garbage
now that I’m back to earth I have to admit that my naturalization interview was more than a little bizarre and stress-provoking. I’ll probably write more about it later after I have achieved full touchdown
as I get off the train from Philly what do I see but my own personal naturalization ceremony in North Wales, PA
listen to immigrants. we chose this country over the country of our birth and we often offer valuable perspective on how to make it better. I’m not saying fast food places need to carry pani puri but there are some more practical ideas out there
the last three years have been an emotional roller coaster
I had planned to work in a Philly shared office space for the rest of the afternoon but then these guys from Texas walked into the bar and I bought them drinks to share in my joy and then they bought me drinks and one thing led to another and Anthony my barkeep was offering me a congratulatory dessert on the house. I love my city.
stepped in dog poop while walking the streets of Philly waiting for my pub to open then spent some more time walking and looking for a puddle to wash it off, a puddle that was likely more toxic than the dog poop all the while carrying a bottle of water in my hand
walked from 30th Street station to city hall to blow Billy Penn a kiss and formally anoint his woods as my “home”. and then off to my favorite pub, the dandelion, to partake of a celebratory hand pulled English pint of Philadelphia IPA.
approved. oath taking in a couple of weeks. thanks for the good vibes everyone looks like they worked
excited but I also have an urge to vomit
sitting outside on the deck listening to music drinking European lager and practicing naturalization interview questions but I keep mistakenly calling it the nectarine nazi cult instead of Republican party
just attended my small town pride walk and now the entire town has converged at the town tavern for the after party including the mayor
has any other country in the world voted into the presidency a guy accused of sexual assault by twenty different women and caught on tape admitting to sexual assault
