We just got a hand signed letter of appreciation... addressed to me. oy vey

We celebrated the blue tsunami with a donation to the local food bank. Well, Donna did.

Pass the word

Thank you, cut&pasted for my bride who might think he's regular.

I've been getting reluctant to follow back; zombies abound. But your posts are fun and uplifting. Thanks.

YouTube video by Greg Landsman Important update on the Big, Very Terrible Budget Bill.

What's in that budget bill anyway?

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

The white house east wing is a masterpiece of architectural millwork, with wood paneled walls, elaborate doorways. Well, it was a few days ago.

Did they even try to save anything?
If they had only told us...

"Anna, Lindsey Halligan Here." Anna Bower Monday, October 20, 2025, 5:40 PM Share On: f X inK My Signal exchange with the interim U.S. attorney about the Letitia James grand jury.

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

May or may not be timely in this news cycle. When in doubt, attack.

No democrats were consulted for the contents of this message:

Great start, now, where's the story?

Poignant. And I looked it up, again, to be sure. Yeah, I pass on the right, stay in the left lane until the last possible second (when my wife slams on the passenger brake) because I know, we the people have to leave our leaders in the dust. Bitches be sold, pass em.

Reposted to all eleven of my loyal and outspoken followers!! This is how movements start.

I second this motion!!!!!!

Ah yes. I am adamant that every rep be legit, having lost a few junior high contests to the guy who does half-ups. Also, I move slow, feeling the burn. Turning my elbows tight on pushups was a hassle, but I find using a grip that turns my hand helps.

Yeah, but is he really?

Remind me not to arm wrestle this guy. But I am inspired. I've built a rack in the corner of my office at the day job: pull up bar, dip handles, push up parallettes. Set of a hundred, that's a goal.

Excellent! I'm after 6 weeks from hernia surgery, got back on the pullup bar... did a half. Ooof. 30 deep squats though. A few pushups, a dip or two. 100 by 2026? In how many sets?

I was not aware. Must look deeper...

Bleats. That's what he does; demented bleats.

1325 is a big, ahem, deal. Today a fellow traveller said his outline was 30 pages. My 4 page spreadsheet needs a workout. The more I plan, the better it goes.

Worse for MAGA, in exchange for the bailout, Argentina lifted their export tax, making it even CHEAPER for China. This will directly TANK Trump's already struggling farmer base.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent read a message from Rollins, flagged by CFPB Director Rohit Chopra. She warned Beijing had undercut American farmers by buying Argentine soybeans cheaper than the US can send them with Trump's tariffs, all while the Trump admin gave a massive bailout for Argentina.

War, loverly war. In Ukraine and in the USA. Catching up in posting here, I submit for your perusal a rumination on recent rumors of war... and most significantly, the confederate wing of the American 250 year schism and their current all-out wa...

“First they came for the Jews...” But that is not their core goal! Which is to wage all-out war vs ALL fact using professions, from science and teaching, medicine and law and civil service to the heroes of the officer corps who won the Cold War and the War on terror.

Now who would want that?

When I was young, I would run on the rocks, barefoot and agile, on the beaches of Maine and Mass. I miss that limber energy, that reckless disregard for mortality. To leap a chasm barely within my reach, no witnesses, no recourse, no insurance...

By that are you referring to the AM stations that made ol' Limbaugh the stain that darkened our britches to this very day? Or is there something worse?
