Holy “parallel establishment”. “Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., is sounding the alarm about the Trump administration’s approval of a new bank backed by two GOP megadonors, tech billionaires Peter Thiel and Palmer Luckey” … 1/ www.msnbc.com/top-stories/...

Trump administration gives initial approval to bank backed by GOP megadonors

Sen. Elizabeth Warren says the approval of Erebor Bank, which is linked to Peter Thiel and Palmer Luckey, is a classic example of crony capitalism.

Statement by Ulf Kristersson
Statement by Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden and the United Kingdom
Published 18 January 2026
As members of NATO, we are committed to strengthening Arctic security as a shared transatlantic interest. The pre-coordinated Danish exercise Arctic Endurance" conducted with Allies, responds to this necessity. It poses no threat to anyone.
We stand in full solidarity with the Kingdom of Denmark and the people of Greenland. Building on the process begun last week, we stand ready to engage in a dialogue based on the principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity that we stand firmly behind.
Tariff threats undermine transatlantic relations and risk a dangerous downward spiral. We will continue to stand united and coordinated in our response. We are committed to upholding our sovereignty.

From Timothy Snyder's On Freedom, "Freedom is not just an absence of evil but a presence of good." We can't take our democracy for granted.

Das von @robcrank68.bsky.social gewählte Thema zum #BirdOfTheDay ist #TwoOfAKind

Zwei Stieglitze an kahlen, knospenden Zweigen einer Linde, in der Sonne.
Der vordere, der seine Füßchen um einen, senkrecht durchs Bild verlaufenden Zweig, gelegt hat, und teils von diesem verdeckt wird, zeigt seine Brust, und schaut in Richtung linker Bildseite. Der, teils verdeckt, dahinter sitzende, ist unscharf.
Im Hintergrund blauer Himmel.

Rotes Eichhörnchen sitzt in der Sonne auf einem Ast im Baum, mit dem Rücken zum dicken Baumstamm.
Eine Hinterpfote liegt auf dem Ast, die andere an einem schmalen Rest eines nach oben führenden abgebrochenen Astes. Die Vorderläufe sind an der Brust zusammengeführt. Ein weiterer schmaler, nach oben führender Ast verdeckt die linke Hälfte des Kopfes.
Der am Körper hochgestellte Schwanz schaut zum Teil hinter diesem Ast hervor, und wirft einen Schatten auf den Baumstamm.

Das Eichhörnchen in selber Position, die Vorderpfoten zum Mund geführt, hat die Augen geschlossen.

We outnumber them. We are smarter and far more strategic than they are. And they are bullies who like to dish it out but are DEATHLY afraid of having to take it in return (thus all the intimidation and scare tactics). If you push peaceful people who restrain themselves because they know exactly...

#SkySunday #Stunday Good morning friends! It’s cloudy and snowy today. Here’s another archived #SunriseMagic on the #CTShoreline with #clouds Have a great day and stay safe out there! Go outside and just breathe. #landscape #photography #reflections

A layer of clouds blanket the cove and shoreline. As the sun rises the clouds are painted in reds orange and yellow colors. The water is calm with some ice and the landscape and sky are reflected on the water.

Good Morning, BlueSky Friends!
Here is a Throwback Picture of Three tufted ducks That I Saw at My local Lake Last Year in the Summer Time.
Captured on my Canon EOS R50

The image shows three ducks swimming calmly on a body of water, likely a pond or lake. All three appear to be adult males of the same species, with glossy black heads, necks, backs, and breasts, contrasting white flanks and underparts, bright yellow eyes, and pale blue-gray bills.

They are positioned in a loose group: two are closer together toward the top of the frame, while the third is slightly lower and more centered in the foreground. The water surface is mostly calm with gentle ripples radiating from the ducks, and it reflects the overcast sky and the birds themselves. A few small leaves or bits of debris float on the water. The background is softly blurred, focusing attention on the ducks and creating a serene, natural atmosphere.

The sourdough journey has been fun but you have a lot of discarded starter. I’ve been saving mine and today I made cheddar cheese crackers with some of my discard. They are easy and tasty! I’ll make them again. Here is the recipe I used. pin.it/44SA7veJp

Global average temperature maps relative to average 1961-1990 baseline for every year since 1850. Red is above baseline, blue below baseline. Notice the trend?

This is fossil fuel driven, friends.
