Avatar? Is Elinore with you?

I suppose in these times, getting your kids used to a fascist surveillance state may very well be the appropriate life training for our dismal future, but holy hell, people. Don’t do this.

When my son was starting to question Santa’s existence, one evening he asked us (fearfully/hopefully) if Santa was real. “What do you think?” we asked him. “I don’t know, but some of my friends at school say he’s not real and only babies believe in him.” “Well, he brings you presents every year, and I think someone…

Teach your little shits they’re being watched all the time. There are therapists out there with student loans to pay, y’know.

Kanopy has an app that works with FireTV, so no need to jump through any hoops at all. In my house, picking up the remote is too much hassle, since I can tell Alexa to do what I want.

Depends on the library. Ours has no limit on Kanopy movies, but only 6 items total per month from Hoopla. The majority of new ebooks they’re getting are through Hoopla, too, so that sucks. Even though I don’t generally read ebooks, I still bump up on the limit pretty often.

The question that is bugging me however is why are they having a meet and greet on the runway with the vice president in over eager sherriff office tactical gear?

The Venn diagram of this is a single circle.

Nothing at Kim’s site that is new, unless you mean the story from last week about the recordings that may help solve a murder.

Absolutely.

I used to get that a lot, too. It made me wonder what the fuck they were picking up on to believe I’d agree with their hateful shit. Then I realized: because I lived in a super red Texas county, I appeared to be a conservative Republican straight white woman so they assumed I’d think just like them. They were only…
