Ron DeSantis is a true dictator. The people’s voice doesn’t matter at all. Yesterday he reappointed a judge that was voted out of office. Today, he re-appointed a school board member, who was booted from office after voted out who he wanted on the school board. Today within hours of swearing-in, DeSantis declares Broward school board member-elect’s seat ‘vacant’ local10.com/news/local/2022/12 Be careful residents of #FloriDuh a vote for #DeSatan is a vote autocracy.

Just finished watching Nic Cage in The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.

This may or may not be related, but I have the biggest damn smile on my face right now.

Via The Hill:

The #House on Thursday passed a #bill that would require annual #audits of the president’s #taxreturns, codifying #IRS policy after a congressional committee revealed that the agency did not audit #Trump during two years he was in office.
The legislation, titled the Presidential Tax Filings and Audit Transparency Act, passed in an 222-201 vote.

I feel like Nicolas Cage should be an entire genre of film at this point.

Something quite serious now.

For the past 2 years on the birdsite, I've enjoyed being part of Sarah Millican's #JoinIn - there for anyone on their own over the festive season who would like to join in a group chat to help pass the day.

We've had some great times, and I'm planning to support it here too this year.

If you're lonely, just post #JoinIn so we can spot you, or search for the #JoinIn hashtag, and just join in!

Good idea? Give it a BOOST!

@freemo are there any plans to update to Mastodon version 4.0 or newer any time soon? I think many of us would like to have the ability to follow hashtags. Thank you in advance!

All right #Mastodon, show this #twitterexodus refugee what you can do.

Walked away from 6700 followers because I won't provide content (not directly, at least) or be in the same space as a destructive & dangerous narcissist. This new (for me) place is cool but I do miss being able to post a special #nature #photograph & know it will get seen thousands of times.

I guess that's my #introduction. I rant about #covid #CovidIsNotOver & #LongCovid & I live in a beautiful place. With a foot of snow.
