Why are our government officials not speaking up and doing anything about these blatantly illegal activities?

Why isn't the media rousing the people?

No one is coming to save us.... it's too late. So tomorrow, I go figure out how to buy and use a handgun to have for my own personal protection.

I am the pinnacle of good health this morning.
Sour Punch pickle roulette bites for breakfast.... leftover fries for lunch.
(Dinner will be a salad and water ... I think.)

In my defense, I am working.

Just DELETED deleted my FaceBook and Instagram accounts vs. just deactivating them.
That felt good!

Since I finally learned how to set up docker containers, perhaps I'll give this a try.

Well, given the long-term list, humankind may not be around to witness it. We're all just stuck in short-term hell.

I don't want to feel so helpless in this world right now ... they want us to feel hopeless. But what can I actively do that makes a difference?

My coping mechanism today was to play with MPC Beats all day.
Got the start of a new song and finished one. (And I am nowhere near a musician, but it's still fun and exercises a different area of the brain, so I'm okay with that.)

It appears that the next Bird Buddy product will have something to do with butterflies. Cannot wait.... although I have to train the newest pawed member of our family to not dig up my plants.

I cannot imagine having to be worried about this. I'm lucky. The next 4 years will be miserable for many of us, but at least I know leaving the US for me would be a voluntary choice.

Resharing in case helpful for anyone else.

A colleague gifted me with this gem today.
Can't wait to start my new evening reading series ...

What are people's thoughts about paid news? I know news outlets have to pay employees. I also believe access to fair news should not depend on socioeconomic status.
Are there truly still free news sources? Reuters is about the only one I am willing to pay for. What else is out there?

Someone needs to un-elect the entire Shelby County school board.

#Data peeps, how in the world do you keep up with all the things? I just finished a PGP-DSBA program and every day I see more new things to learn, mostly outside of work hours.
Does anyone have a personal life or do you just study ALL THE TIME? :D
I must know your secrets ...

This spicy little white queen started her life out in a warehouse, five weeks old and hissing at strangers.
In a better home now and can have her sweet moments, but still pretty spicy ... if she had her way, all the other animals in the house would disappear

Mr Handsome.... this guy started hanging out in our yard a few years ago, hopped the fence, climbed over the greenhouse, and meowed at the back door until we finally let him in.
Think he's happy here?

Texas is giving me anxiety.... we don't deserve to win this game, but sure hoping we can pull it off!

I may or may not start posting daily pics of our animals in front of various Christmas decorations...

Hoping to connect with a few women in tech. My circle is woefully small in the Deep South! Just got a certificate in data science and work as a SaaS product manager.
Whose eyes won't glaze over chatting about AI, SQL, Jupyter, Databricks, ML, crypto, cats, pollinator plants and anything else cool?

Today's my first day here. Slightly geekyTexan at heart, even though we live in Tennessee right now with two dogs, three cats and a bird.
This is one of the kitties. Aspen is spicy, but loves Christmas decorations. Especially small forests she can level in a single sitting.
