17.02.2026 15:50 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0This is personally terrifying for me as I imagine this is where strong critics of Trumpism from Massachusetts might end up, if things get much worse. I imagine you might share the same fear.
17.02.2026 15:17 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0They're trying to convert one in Merrimack, New Hampshire that sits very close to Nashua's water supply. It was built as a warehouse expecting a few hundred workers at most; I bet its sewage infrastructure isn't ready to handle 5000 prisoners and the guards etc. Lots of local opposition.
04.02.2026 15:08 — 👍 9 🔁 2 💬 2 📌 0My goodness! This is unusual for you. Despite all the more reasonable options, I had a strange desire stick with a word today with that 2nd letter in the 2nd try. I expected to be punished, not rewarded, for that odd pleasure. Weird. Wordle 1,704 2/6

This is Bob Coveiro. He sat by his human's grave for 10 years until his own death in 2021. Pets were not permitted to be buried with humans, but he was given an exception. Now 5 years later, inspired by his loyalty, Brazil passed the Bob Coveiro Law allowing pets to be buried in family graves. 14/10

Can't believe you just wrote that! I just stumbled across a video I made 20 years ago of a little dance I made as an offering to my root guru, HH Penor Rinpoche. I was quite out of shape at and unsteady because I needed hip surgery, but still a glimmer of me as a dancer. youtu.be/fwTzPLv7fiA?...
17.02.2026 00:06 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Definitely the prudent and wise course of action. I may return to it, but for the time being am enjoying flying leaps of whimsy and naughty/mood/theme guesses.
16.02.2026 20:39 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Oh really! I had abandoned the past words list entirely. Perhaps too soon. Hmmm... Good call by you, tho, on the likelihood of her choosing a theme word. For the time being, given that I'm in a feisty mood, I'm likely to keep choosing theme/mood words just for the pleasure of it despite the odds.
16.02.2026 16:28 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0That's rather amazing given your 1st try yield. Bravo! I rather enjoyed my speed whimsy Wordle and especially my naughty/moody 3rd try choice despite taking more tries to find the winning word than the NYT average and the bot.

Andrea Pitzer an expert on concentration camps appeared on my SiriusXM show where she warned that history tell us that the massive new ICE detention centers being built will be used to not just imprison migrants--but also Americans who oppose Trump. youtu.be/mnTxt2v1K3Q?...

*RFK Jr. bragged about snorting cocaine off of a toilet seat
*Lutnick acknowledged taking his family to Epstein island
*Bondi “The Dow” / refuses to look at victims
*Noem blanket
*Hegseth loses to Kelly, tries to tweet through it
*Bessent “tariffs don’t cause inflation”
Very nice! I, by contrast, had an excruciating experience as the result of listening to the news while I play (why????) and making the wrong 'mood' bet. Wordle 1,702 5/6

Actually, I do get and do think it is funny. We've gone off our rockers with envisioning all of this. They're coming to take us away, ha ha! www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQNI...

14.02.2026 12:53 — 👍 1553 🔁 469 💬 63 📌 21Perhaps a better way of saying this would be to say that in just his first year in office Donald Trump ordered the illegal detention of well over 4,000 human beings—and that that number is undoubtedly wildly low because it only considers those people who filed lawsuits to try to regain their freedom
14.02.2026 18:53 — 👍 453 🔁 204 💬 4 📌 5@barackobama.bsky.social: "Bad Bunny's halftime show... This is what a community is. People who did not speak Spanish and have never been to Puerto Rico saw that elderly woman serving a drink and the kids dancing with their grandmas... There's room for everybody here. That I think is where we win."
