From the Atlantic, The Capital is a Mess:

“It’s as if there were a natural disaster, and we’re looking at the damage after a hurricane. Or think of Manhattan after the World Trade Center was hit by an act of terrorism,” Charles A. Birnbaum, the president of the Cultural Landscape Foundation, told me. “If you were just to parachute into Washington, you’d say: Gosh, what happened here?”

Happy Birthday America."

It's like a totally different country. Trump ruins everything. Even a celebration that belongs to the people.

This is how the 250th would look if Trump wasn't president. He fucks EVERYTHING up.

Look everyone! Trump has Trump Derangement Syndrome. We always knew it applied to him and his followers. They all have TDS.

I just got my first high quality espresso machine. I want to use freshly (or fairly freshly) roasted coffee beans. Does anyone have some local roasters they really like? I usually like a dark roast. I live in inner NE so roasters in that area would be particularly appreciated.

Thanks!

"The State of Oregon will not be participating in the Great American State Fair due to both the cost of participating in the Fair and growing concerns that the event in Washington D.C. is shaping up to be a more partisan affair than originally presented,” Oregon spokesperson Luke Harkins told CNN.

Yay for us! We don't want to take part in such b.s.!

And apparently the grounds were empty and a well-known Republican influencer got arrested for jerking off to female acrobats. Republicans have so many sexual issues! They seem to always be getting busted for something sex-related.

I'm so grateful to live here than in a red state.

Go Oregon! 💪

May show a small amount ( ~1%) and I'm just wondering how many others have such a result? I imagine the majority of people of European descent have a small amount. I'm curious how often it's picked up.

This is unbelievable. As the article points out, none of the pardoned Jan 6ers received sentences nearly as long and they committed much more horrible deeds. Happened in Texas. On top of that, they are saying the protesters were " members of the of Antifa." Yeah, right. One person who was not even at the protest was given 30 years. I sure hope that most or all of these people will be pardoned in the future. One shot a cop in the neck so it makes sense that person serves some time, but 100 years!

In the U.S., tattoos are everywhere. They are very popular among most age groups. I know they are less popular or not popular at all in a lot of countries. What is your country like?

Of course they did. Now we can blame JD.
