@shadowop 😲 WHERE????

Charlie comes to sit in my lap every time I go get my hair done. Every salon needs a lap cat. 🐈

Friendly reminder. It's okay to disagree with and call out who you voted for at times. Kinda weird if you don't.

@shadowop @LloydLegalist Ha! The best thing to come out of Covid is that we stopped doing the mid-service greet your neighbor thing.

@LloydLegalist @arandomsample12

For those Sundays you don’t feel like greeting that person next to you.

On this day in 1865, Robert E. Lee surrendered to Ulysses S. Grant. Lee showed up dressed in his best, looking like a dignified gentleman. Grant was covered in mud after riding all morning. Before anything was signed, the two men spoke about their shared service in the Mexican War -- a reminder that Confederates and Union soldiers were nonetheless countrymen tied by mystic chords of memory. Grant did not create terms of surrender to humiliate the South. Grant and Lincoln understood that to unify the nation, you could not imprison half of it. Confederates were allowed to keep their sidearms and personal horses. When Grant learned that Lee's men were quite literally starving after having not eaten for days, he ordered 25,000 rations sent to them immediately. Lee said this would have "a very happy effect" on his men. When Lee rode away after signing terms of surrender, Union soldiers cheered. Grant forced them to stop, reminding Union soldiers that Confederates were "now our countrymen" and there would be no cheering over their downfall. (In fact, days later when actual ceremonial surrender occurred, Union Gen. Josh Chamberlain reportedly ordered his men to salute passing Confederates as a sign of respect) Lee also worked diligently to stop Confederates from waging guerrilla warfare, encouraging them to set their arms aside and return home and in peace. He was a titan in his own right. If the spirit of 1865 had been driven by the urge to shame and punish, the Union would not have lasted. So many people today misunderstand that and as such, they try to rewrite America history. God Bless America.

@shadowop @JonnyMicro Yes! I went to gas on my lunch break - wasn’t going to make it to Alexandria after work if I didn’t - and going back to work was the second hardest thing I had to do. (Getting up this morning was the first.)

@JonnyMicro @arandomsample12

Going outside for lunch was a mistake because now I just want to quit my job and go live in the woods

@shadowop @litteralyme0 😂😂 Seems reasonable to me!

When your mom no longer books you doctors appointments so you have to just ignore your symptoms and hope you don't die

@shadowop 😳

Currently vacationing in Colorado and this does not surprise me. So silly.

@jk_rowling Oh man. I was with you through all the trans stuff, but now I just don’t know.

I fear this might be my most controversial take ever, but I agreed to put it to a vote so here we are. Hoodies should only be worn by men young enough not to look silly carrying a skateboard.

@shadowop @johnnyrokketz Dang. 🇺🇸💪🏻😤

We leveled the playing field years ago when we overwhelmingly voted for a bipartisan committee to draw our lines. Currently we have 6 democrats, 5 republicans which is absolutely representative of how we vote. Princeton gave us an A for fair districting, even. Vote NO.

This is a lie. A blatant lie. Not to mention a complete reversal of your campaign promises. This unconstitutional power grab will permanently rig Virginia’s Congressional maps and disenfranchise millions of Virginians. Virginia, VOTE NO.

For 100 years, they have stood watch, for names we will never know. In 1921, an unknown American soldier was laid to rest at Arlington, chosen to represent every service member lost without identification. At first, the tomb wasn’t guarded. Visitors came and went freely, sometimes treating it more like a destination than a sacred place. That changed on March 24, 1926. Concerned by the lack of respect, Army leadership ordered a permanent military guard. And for a century since, the soldiers of the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment—The Old Guard—have carried that responsibility. Through rain and snow. Day and night. 365 days a year. Under strict conditions. They are precise, intentional, and unwavering. Because this isn’t just a tomb. It’s a promise: that those who gave everything, even without a name, will never be forgotten. Happy Birthday to the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment. Thank you for your dedication for the last 100 years.

For shits and giggles, I decided to see just how hard it would be to replace my birth certificate, Social Security card, AND my marriage license, since Democrats think women are too stupid to figure it out. Here's how it went: 1. Birth certificate: Contacted the health department of the county where I was born. They OVERNIGHTED a certified copy to me the next day - total cost, $14. 2. SS Card: Contacted Social Security on their site. They asked if I was sure I needed the card, since I 'won't likely be asked for it.' I went ahead and got it - took five business days to arrive - total cost, $0. 3. Marriage License: Went to the 'vital docs' site of the county where we were hitched. Filled everything out online, arrived in three days - total cost, $5. It cost less than $20 to obtain all three certified/legal documents, and it took less than five business days to receive them. Note: if I had lived where I was born or married, it would have been a day. Tops. Anyone telling you this is too hard or unfair is lying and hiding the real reason they want to stop Voter ID. I know you guys knew that already... lol

@shadowop @BiancoDavinci Aw, that’s fun!

Este es el primer libro de bolsillo de la historia. El Codex Rotundus, de 1480. De forma circular, tiene 266 páginas e iluminaciones extraordinarias. Es un libro de horas. Fue impreso en Brujas. Es una joya bibliográfica.

I’m gonna have to start paying for things in cash more. I want a 2026 dime!

@shadowop @theoldworldshow I haven’t even heard of this place before. Need to add it to my list.

@theoldworldshow Shirley Plantation

In my eyes, James Madison's Montpelier is the most beautiful of the Virginia gentry's plantation homes Which is your favorite?
