I hear the 🍊🀑 is all bent out of shape about this ad. Be a shame if it got plastered all over the internet. 🀣 Keep building your high castle trump, your economics will eventually lead to runaway inflation and job loss. Only a matter of time...

When thieves climbed to a second-floor window of the Louvre, grabbed jewels of staggering worth and descended to their getaway scooters, many in France were stunned and furious. But the German company that made the elevator saw a once-in-a-lifetime marketing opportunity. Read more: nyti.ms/477z9Lm

My favorite signs were:

"It's so bad this is my first protest."
"There’s not enough room on this sign for all my reasons."
"23 year Army veteran."

Here are our signs and some pictures. See my previous post for video.

Teddy Doodle Lasso and I drove 160 mi. yesterday to be a part of No Kings Pierre with about 250 other people. The wind was frickin' cold and pushed me back a step once or twice!

People honked and waved as they went by. A few gave us a thumbs down or the finger. Overall people waved and chanted.

* I also included a pocket knife. I seriously debated this last, wanting to be completely non-violent, but decided it might come in handy.

I'm not recommending any of these steps --- except Legal Shield, which I am 100% recommending! --- just sharing my thinking process.

* I also included a protein shake because I didn't have any UHT milk. I heard milk is better than water for tear gas, but I just Googled it and water is better.
* Also in my bag: snacks, chocolate, latex gloves, leather work gloves, some cash, ibuprofen, lip balm.

* Put the Legal Shield app on the home screen of my phone so all I had to do was hit the "CALL MY LAW FIRM" button. (Contact Lin Schussler-Williams to sign up. Worth every freaking penny.)
* A mask, bandana and water in my bag in case of tear gas. I'd have included swim goggles if I had them.

* Teddy Doodle Lasso's leash was clipped to my belt, not in my hand, to leave both hands free and so no one could take it away.
* Put my phone on power saving to give me a day and a half of power in case I was detained.

* Driver's license, passport card and debit card in the shirt pocket closest to my body in case I got arrested and they took my coat away.
* Keys and phone in my pants pocket, not my bag, which could get torn off or grabbed by someone.

I took a lot of precautions preparing to attend No Kings Pierre yesterday which turned out to be overkill because it was a completely kind and joyful event. (List below if you're interested.)

Later, I asked myself why I was so cautious. Then I remembered --- STANDING ROCK is why.

Even though I have app permissions turned off for my microphone, today I picked up my phone and it had transcribed a conversation in the room into a text to send to the last person I texted with.

Has Karma Come for Kristi Noem? The Department of Homeland Security secretary was carrying $3,000 in cash when her purse was stolen.

Kristi Noem had $3K in her purse and blank checks? C'mon, I'm her age and I can't remember the last time I wrote a check!

Will last at least 9 mos unwashed/refrigerated. Sliding scale $7.50-10 donation in support of Veteran Service Corps distributing free chickens and eggs on Cheyenne River.

I'm back to SD this week. These are in my fridge and can be picked up by contacting me or Alaceyia Adams. I'll bring back more!

Columbus friends, I brought home about 19 dozen eggs from our Promise chickens. They are gorgeous shades of blue, brown and grey. Gathered by my own hands.

Cage-free, free range, happy chickens fed with scraps from our own table. They are yummy!

Security clearance is definitely required to be in the Cabinet, right? How far down the pecking order is the nominayion and confirmation process required?

Ans, as a Presidential advisor, is Musk an official federal employee or not? (If that fucker is getting paid I am going to be pissed.)

Even if he is an employee, he can't head a dept. w/o confirmation. Has he undergone security clearance? Is that required as an advisor or not?

I'm confused about DOGE. They renamed US Digital Service to DOGE but it's just a rebrand. Was USDS under another dept and is now under the Exec Branch? Does that mean they roll up to OMB?

I know you can't form a new Cabinet level agency without Congressional approval. So which is it?

Foods I have learned to like in adulthood: Brussels sprouts, tuna, coffee, zucchini, cole slaw, olives. Foods I will never like: stuffed peppers, corned beef, cauliflower, pumpernickel, beer.

David Tennant's epic 2025 BAFTA opening β€” 500 Miles
YouTube video by GeekIreland David Tennant's epic 2025 BAFTA opening β€” 500 Miles

FWIW I thought David Tennant smashed it last night. It's a hard balance to strike (as many previous hosts have proved) but he's perfect for it.
Also, a song would normally have been cringe but I loved this so much, especially the bewildered Hollywood stars' faces 🀣 #EEBaftas
