Reaction Shots (John Barrett)

I thought the same. There’s that Army National Guard base way out Westheimer, but/and the were flying due east (to Ellington?). I dunno. If anyone makes a statement that I catch, I’ll surely share it.

Thanks. Part of me is curious to know more about the maneuvers/training, but the response from HPD that this isn’t unusual rankles me. I’d be curious to know how flight paths are chosen.

Some of my neighbors are apprehensive because they think this is unusual (I’m in the Galleria area).

Never too late to start!

#GobIron should do the trick!

Another helicopter flyover

Two following the first

Two bringing up the rear

Oh why not? Our tax dollars at work. Five more copters just flew over.

I have other stuff to do, but I’d be curious if other Houstonians have more info.

Military helicopters over San Antonio and Houston make you nervous?

Get out and vote and grab a friend to go with you. This state needs a completely makeover. We have a legislature that willingly aligns itself with the regime.

They need to be run out of office on their knees.

For last-minuters:

2/2

It is a big deal when you’re flying military aircraft over major metropolitan areas. It is a big deal when people are shaken by it, and it is a big deal when you live in a city where the PD partners with the military as a matter of course.

Get to those primaries, gang. Texas needs a change.

'Don't like this': Helicopter spotting in San Antonio sparks concern "I've never experienced something like this," one resident said of the sighting.

My assumption is that the helicopter flyovers are for the same purpose as the ones last fall: military training.

This is from back in September: archive.ph/GGvoh.

Today in San Antonio, they’re seeing the same.

Houston PD acted like this was no big deal 6 months ago, but I have disagree.
1/2

Two military helicopters flying over the Galleria area of Southwest Houston

Two helicopters against the clouds

Fuuuuuck me. 2nd flyover in half an hour.

Military helicopters flying in from the west, heading due east. There were 3 the first run and five this time.

This bodes ill.

Also, really not related: I thought of your comment about the harmonica/harp etymology and have been confused by it myself. Enough to root around and find this:

Thanks, we so need it. Not primary related: about 15 minutes ago, 3 military helicopters flew over my part of Houston in triangle formation, heading due east.

Maybe it is primary related. We’re trying to vote out assholes who support this regime and by extension, the $1 trillion military budget.

Okay Texans!

Early voting’s over and tomorrow is primary day!

I’ve got a bunch of resources here for your use, so help yourself!

Let’s turn this place blue like the sky from the Hill Country to the Perdinales, from the Panhandle to the Gulf Coast and the Valley! Let’s do this!

Austin shooting spurs Texas political fights Days out from the March primary, Republicans called for changes to immigration law. Democrats repeated their calls for stricter gun laws.

There are times when - & I try to watch my responses to this stuff because the GOP demands our attention and the news cycle inflames it - I really just want to take a big swig on a deep single malt and tell the whole goddamn state of Texas to fuck itself stupid.

…except it’s already there.

Good morning Brenda & #BreakfastCrew! (I’ve got 15 minutes left here in Houston before noon.)

Another maddening Monday but there’s still room for laughter and friendship.

Can’t hang but wanted to drop by and say hi!

An awesome day to all!

Good morning, Jaye!

Both of those sound yummy and I suspect I’ll have to make one of each later this afternoon!

Hope your Monday isn’t manic after the road.

I think I may have to write a kids book about “Judith Turtle” (that’s a great name for a character).

I get the slow motion recuperation, though. I’m sure you’ve had plenty of “take your time” well-wishes, so add mine to those.

Here’s to healing coming quicker, as well!

I can’t say no to a muppet:

No notes. Says it all.

Thanks buddy!

I’m pulling together an overview of summer releases for May, and of course, a big movie for your esteemed self is due out in August.

Memes in the Time of Trump 2.0: a parade of parody, piss, and vinegar Epstein, Epstein, Epstein   DON’T STOP TALKING ABOUT THE EPSTEIN FILES: ask why they’re so heavily redacted? Why didn’t Trump release them a...

Here’s the latest from a couple of weeks back. I’m gearing up for another when I’ve got a moment (maybe next week?)

Huh…am I your uncle?

Hey all! How about a little Sunday fun?

I like @allie-froglegs.bsky.social ‘s idea! I dropped four; who wants to play?

With the document “Iran Nuclear Deal” torn up on a desk, an EU representative asks a sulking DJ Trump, “What was so bad about that Iran deal?”, to which Sad Lil Donny replies, “Obama’s signature”

“Trump is everything we teach our children not to be “

Three dragon. One with the S Korean flag on its crown with a label: “Give a life sentence to a former president for attempting an insurrection “; another with the UK flag: “Arrest a member of the royal family for being in the Epstein Files”; last dragon with US flag: DOW AT 50,000”. The first two dragons look pretty imperious and commanding. The last guy? Pretty goddam dopey.

The Orange Occupier - sorry - the Pedo in Chief sitting next to a young girl (old photo) with the label: “For the Epsteinth time, an ‘underage woman’ is called a CHILD”

Hey Allie! This IS fun! Once or twice a month I post a column called Memes in the Time of Trump 2.0. These are 4 for the upcoming entry.

And vice versa, Mr. A! You’re pretty dang cool, yourself, bud!

Judith, I’m so glad you’re on the mend and this is a glorious pack.

I think I better get off my ass and see if I can’t get my number 7 out there. You’re in it (always), but talk about Johnny DragginHisFeet? Yep. That’s me.

Hugs (gentle ones!)!

I saved the best for last! Judith is back! She’s been through the wringer and I suggest we celebrate by spreading this fine work of hers around!

Hey gang! @schultziepie.bsky.social to the rescue! Not one, but TWO posts of packs for your expansion of your community (& by extension, everyone else’s)!

Cheers, all!

#ImpeachThePedoWarCriminal

Schultziepie!!! Thanks so much! I was assembling a list like this earlier this morning but had to bail for real life stuff!

Can’t wait to pass this on!

You rock!

Because Tricia is awesome and righteous, I will certainly be happy to add more of her choices to my network, and pass them along to all!

Thanks again for your wonderful work, @thewelshtaffy24.bsky.social !

This morning I said OrangePedoBoy and Bibi will do anything to stay in power and avoid justice. Maybe start WW3 to avoid prison? Sure! Those pesky Epstein files aren’t going away, Donny. Your abetting and/organizing sex trafficking and rape of children? I bet there’s plenty more connections…

Thanks again, Jan!

Time to share.

New York Times headline: “Trump’s Attack on Iran Is Reckless”. Seriously? I wonder what gave them that idea?

Fuck me…NYT: ya think?
