Sorry for the delay - it's been a family-intensive weekend and I haven't actually been home very much to do the editing needed.

I now have a script that runs every so often and gathers all the nominations that have been posted since the last time the script ran. I'll check in on the wiki every now and then and add any nominations from the thread that haven't been cross-posted.
Oh that's sweet, and kind of means that the wiki page for it isn't really needed, the way I originally intended it. But at the same time it might also be nice to have the nominations available for people to check during the year too. The idea was like I said to share the work, but in a way that would only work if everyone was on board, but if you want to do that and make it the place to collect the nominations anyway, then I am all for it!

I saw a report that he never got around to a requested meeting in April with the head firies to discuss the drought conditions, lack of equipment and manpower, and the poo poo that was likely to hit the fan in September. These people are unpaid volunteers and some look like they'll have full blown PTSD once things calm down enough to have time for it.

I guess the bootlickers working for Murdoch have to be very careful about attacking them directly even when the firies are yelling out the window of their fire engine for the PM to get hosed.

Why, you'd have to go back to Barack Obama to find a president who wasn't impeached when the other party controlled the House. And before that, it was way back in the George W. Bush presidency.

it's dumb bullshit for idiots, but this was an argument put forth by McConnell a few weeks ago (meaning that it may be current day in the Stallie timeline).

Basically they're claiming that the Trump impeachment is a purely partisan affair, which opens the door for every president to be impeached on equally partisan grounds.

Since you impeached president Trump, we will be forced to impeach president Bernie, because

I'm not part of the queer diaspora, but this is my reading too-- the timing seems super relevant here.

Almost everyone has poo poo that they hide from their boomer relatives, but no one has more to hide than people who aren't comfortable being out around family.

Well, obviously Rall agrees with Bernie, so Bernie agrees with Rall in that explaining that you were right all along, even if you weren't, is a good thing for sane people to do

Like I said to others, I read it another way. I can definitely see how it reads this way as well. Goodness knows I know how that goes at work the past year since I came out to myself, and only just came out to my parents about things recently.

No, but I think he broke out during the run-up to the Iraq War. I get why people don’t like TMW, but I remember seeing it taped to professors’ doors in those days, and it felt like a breath of fresh air, so I have residual fondness for it.

There is no water to be found anymore. All the soil has transformed into worthless shifting sand. Blowing in your eyes, blinding you. Nothing can grow anymore, except for these accursed cactuses which spring up from nowhere unbidden. Even if you cut them open, there’s no water, just more sand inside, impossibly. There only purpose is to sting you as you blunder into them wandering through the sandstorm. You think you see a building in the distance, some shelter, any shelter, but it’s only an illusion vanishing as you get near. You can only scale hoodoos pointlessly, endlessly, never finding solace. Yelling into the wind to no one as you are pursued by a lone coyote. You are vaguely aware that eventually that coyote will be gnawing at your lifeless desiccated corpse.

Welcome to Prickly City.
