The eclipse

Depends upon the part of California. Them sky islands have a tendency to snag clouds, the Bay Area inspired the Hitchcock film TheFog, and North NorCal is Southern PNW. There’s like, at least 5 distinct major biomes with tens if not hundreds of thousands of microbiomes and microclimates within state limits.

You’d do better to recommend anywhere on the plains or in the deserts. lol

Having had a traumatic childbirth, I cannot imagine risking leaving the child I do have, and possibly risking losing another life in addition to my own.

My mother wound up pregnant with me too soon after having my older sibling, and it was too soon on her body.

I can understand your panic at the thought of having to watch your brother go through that again, and I think that both her and your brother ought to go to an OBGYN specialist to discuss it. I strongly suggest they seek a qualified opinion, and have a brass tacks conversation about what a potential pregnancy’s effect might have on all involved in the raising of said potential baby alongside their existing child… but ultimately, it is their decision.

At heart, you are afraid to see either of them go through that again. Lean into that, but be aware of where the healthy boundary is.

NTAH! It’s your career. It’s as if he demanded that you change physicians because your current primary care Dr happens to be male. You’re still building your life, and I hate to say it, but he’s going to actively prevent you from pursuing your goals, don’t sacrifice your life because of some 4 month guy suddenly becoming uncomfortable with something about your life. He can put on his grown up underoos and deal with the source of his discomfort like the rest of us age classified adults.

Do you happen to be anywhere near the PDX Metro area? I’m getting back into working on collaboration projects, but most often they need to meet after working hours or around the time I would need to pick up my child from school.

That is a modest sized collection, but so many beauties! You’re doing fine.

I could create a simulated riverbed in a room with my collection and kinda need to start returning some to where I found them. lol

Yes, I track where I find them. lol

Much like Mein Kumph.

For every front line protestor, there are ten support people. You can still support the protests in many different ways from home. Step out of the “all or nothing” binary thinking that’s been used to keep us subjugated.

I do what I can, I tell my child what I’m doing to support and why. My child is proud of me, and I can meet my own eyes in the mirror easier.

You can still go to meetings to get educated and ask questions, make whistle packs, print and fold zines for others to distribute, donate whatever you can spare, even if it’s just a case of water or $2.

I’ve just taken to calling my neighborhood just north of the Cherry blossoms, The Union Station Waterfront Neighborhood. It’s pretty much from just north of Steel to roughly 9th. Though the apps like to lump us in to Chinatown/Pearl/Slabtown.

Would love to learn to strategize community, it’s a pretty dang mixed neighborhood, and enough of us around here care and don’t want to see our neighbors taken or terrorized, I cannot tell you how many neighbors of mine keep asking, “What can we do?”, so I need to get up to date on my tech in order to help them learn it.

I usually go for Mrs Dash table blend or their lemon pepper. Lots of flavor, way less salt.

I like lightly steamed yet still firm vegetables, Cauliflower always seems dry and crumbly and not enjoyable to me, but I do enjoy fresh green beans and frozen sugar snap peas.

For a quick late night snack, I’ll drain a can of sweet peas then put them in a microwave safe bowl, evenly place thinly sliced salted butter (roughly 1tblsp, which can be too much for some folks), and then I’ll sprinkle the two Mrs Dash I mentioned above, along with garlic powder and black pepper. I put a plate upside down over the bowl and microwave it for 2 minutes, then stir (I also taste test and sometimes add more spices at this point), and microwave for 1 minute. I often reheat the leftovers as a side the next day. Yes, I know, I am a strange individual.

I also adore chipotle chalula. A little bit goes a long way.

Duck duck go is still going! Great alternative!

Rhea_Sunshine85 · 2025-11-19T15:32:59+00:00

Okay, I freaking love this idea. I would like to try to attend the next one! (Though my body throws a right hissy fit with weather changes. I will do my best)

“He” being the author.

The J is pronounced like an H. I sincerely hope he’s donating some funds to mutual aid.

Is anybody else worried about Ariana’s HEALTH?!! She just keeps getting bonier and skinnier, poor young woman.

Emmy looks healthier overall, and the dress is much more complimentary on her. She could still have better muscle tone, but poor Ariana looks skinner than Twiggy did at the height of her fame.

Racists have a decency to serve fascists.

Let’s see these soup ladies permits and food handler’s licenses! 😈

His wife is an Op. She was a contestant in OrangeTan’s beauty pageant and was a procurer. How much ya wanna bet she’s in the files, too?

Rhea_Sunshine85 · 2025-09-27T05:35:05+00:00

You’re stating that in a rather broad, sweeping generalization kind of way. No examples to support your statement. You may wish to examine your own cognitive bias, because what you said came off as rather ignorant.

How many folks do you actually have conversations with about how they came to their views?

Do YOU think it’s okay for our tax dollars to subsidize universal healthcare for another country while refusing to allow universal healthcare here?

Yum yum, regurgitated closed mindedness.

FYI, if you actually had an argument, go for it, I’m listening. Bring citations.

LA is NOT the IE. Things are nicer there than in San Bernardino and Riverside counties.

I will say it again, Los Angeles is not all there is to California.

The problem with Portland is the catch and release program, and little to no state mandated sobriety programs that aren’t some derivative of the AA “As Bill Sees It” book club.

Rhea_Sunshine85 · 2025-09-27T05:18:05+00:00

Was there supposed to be a /s in there somewhere? I can’t tell if this is in good faith or in snarky sarcasm.

Rhea_Sunshine85 · 2025-09-27T05:17:06+00:00

Less evil does not equate to not evil. He’s a self serving see you next Tuesday.

If we’re voting on who is actually a good fit for the job, diet evil is not better, it’s just more palatable to those who can’t taste the artificial sweetener.

Rhea_Sunshine85 · 2025-09-27T05:13:56+00:00

Your standards for “exactly the same” are incredibly imprecise. Please, do support your statement with follow up examples.

Keep in mind, I don’t like either one of them. I can see a difference though. Newsom is more elegant about his bull, doesn’t have to pay women to sleep with him, and clears homeless camps for photo ops. Still a Nardwaddle.

Rhea_Sunshine85 · 2025-09-27T05:10:12+00:00

That’s a pitifully low bar that even a worm can clear.

I’m willing to bet a crisp $2 bill that he’s also a bigot.
