This is Bogie. This rope is his very favorite toy because it makes his tiny human smile too. 13/10 (TT: _chelsea_brown_4)

First up, detailed lidar, then detailed geophysics at unusual locations.

Oh hell no.

Things have certainly changed since 2017/2018. 😕

Sadly, no. 🤣🤣🤣

Nope, just flying low over the freeway. Nowhere to land up here in Glorieta except right on the freeway.

These three were heading east, over the freeway. Kind of wild to see them so low.

Mmmm yakiniku, sushi, and Family Mart spicy chickie. We’ll be right near a base with the biggest commissary on the island so I’ll cook up a tritip,too, if we can get one.

Trump administration is sending pregnant migrant girls to South Texas shelter flagged as medically inadequate Government sources and advocates for the children worry the goal is to concentrate them in Texas, where abortion is banned.

The Trump administration is incarcerating migrant girls in, essentially, a forced pregnancy camp.

We’re not far from Kirtland and there’s the NG in SFe, but there’s definitely more activity than normal.

I’ll be there a little over a week. And she’s taking the whole time off, so there’s lots we can do. It’ll be warm enough to swim, so I expect we will snorkel and possibly kayak, too.

Tempest? Erupted? Really? Try better.

asparagus pee last night. From Covid in October, dammit. Now I need to research how to bring it back if I even can. I can still smell things, but it’s clearly diminished. I’ll have to try other sulphur containing things to see if it’s that aroma that’s gone.

Morning! Just bought my tickets to Okinawa for late April. Yay!

Three military helicopters just flew by at maybe 200 ft over freeway. Not on flightradar or other flight sites. I’ve noticed a lot of military flight activity recently. Weird.

Figured out I have hyposmia when I couldn’t smell

Also - obviously - dinosaur valentines.

When they started up, they weren’t supposed to be. BHP was going to shut everything down because there wasn’t hardly any profit, so NTEC was formed to run the mine and keep the jobs/revenue going but develop other $ sources using the reclaimed land. Breaking even w/o profit was still good for NN.

I did not expect this from them. Damn.

In conversations this morning with the guy, he has not been affected by hyposmia. I’ll have took at ways to bring my my sense of smell back up to what it was before October when I had Covid (for the first time).

Okay okay OK, shine and rise Rebels but especially Oklahoma Rebels! They ain't built barbed wire can contain your Rebel Bird! Your Scissor-tailed Flycatcher is ready to take the watch! #Rise #Resist #Rebel #FlockTheEmpire

Fingers crossed. I’ll have to do some research.

Ex2 and one of his colleagues and I were camped in Baja where there were sulphur bearing rocks. A few burned purple-blue in our camp fire. We had fun with that.

😳

10+ not 20.

There’s a rock formation up on Vermejo Park Ranch that has been used as the type rock smell for class labs to indicate that odor. Now I wonder if I can still smell it. Wah.

Fuck. Covid in October. After six years of novid. 😢 That means my sense of smell is more fucked. Had sinus surgery 20+ years ago that definitely reduced my sense of smell. Sad to know it is even more reduced.

Mmmm sulphur.

Ok. This is weird. I’ve always had asparagus pee smell, but it seems to have gone in the last few years (maybe? as it just dawned on me tonight). This happen to anyone else?

Had a good bunch of asparagus for dinner but no odor. Very strange.

He’s very cute.

Interesting thread. I wonder how many of the people who voted for the SAVE Act realize that it would disenfranchise most citizens of all but five blue states. 🤔

This is Bailey. She normally gets kibble for dinner but she's pretty sure there's meatballs in here so she's very excited. 14/10 (TT: baileycarriesthings)

Here’s one of Pinkie showing that outstretched arm thing. The better one I found has the old roommate in it and I didn’t feel like hiding him under a sticker. Looking forward to maybe seeing Pinkie in a week or so.
