Matt sued Trump once, and won. Now he’s running for Congress to take him on again, because Mainers can’t afford politicians who sell us out.

I’m glad that Left Shark is still out there living their truth, haters be damned. We are all so much more than our worst moments!

At the beginnings of the No Kings protest here in front of City Hall and in Grand Park. I interviewed two people in inflatable shark costumes.

My wife bought me a Dwarf Lab Astro telescope camera thingy for Christmas and I brought it on our trip to Nova Scotia last month. There are so many stars you can BARELY see Cassiopeia, OMG the Milky Way, and that dashed line in the upper right corner is a plane headed to Europe…. Unbelievable.
