Fingers crossed but actual snow coming here [WNC] Saturday. Last weekend it was an ice storm but no snow. Wind and ice caused a tree to fall on the house.

Looking forward to snow. My favorite weather! It’s been too long since these mountains have had any of the magical white stuff.

This is a cover up of a murder, led by our own federal government.

A group of hundreds, many of them nurses still wearing badges after walking from their nearby hospitals, performed a Nightingale Tribute — a traditional send off for nurses — for Alex Pretti, who was killed Saturday by immigration enforcement agents in Minneapolis.
Chicago health care workers honor Alex Pretti, call for abolition of ICE and general strike

Get outside tonight and maybe see the lovely lights? Visiting northern Norway is still on my list as I’d love to see the Northern Lights properly.
A G4+ watch for severe geomagnetic storming has been issued by NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center.

That suggests the potential for widespread auroral displays IF the CME (magnetic shockwave) hits Earth rather directly around the anticipated time (tonight 8 p.m. ETish).

Of course he did. So if his pals at Paramount don’t get Netflix and take CNN off the air, he at least got some money out of the deal 🙄

The line of what people continue to tolerate from the orange person just keeps moving. What will it take for those that have the power to remove him from office, say enough is enough?
This has been the plan all along.
- Foment violence and chaos in the streets of MN
- Implement the Insurrection Act
- Declare Martial Law
- Suspend elections

@straczynski.bsky.social Hi Mr Stracynski.

I said this to you a while ago but with recent events I feel it's once again important to state that I really loved Bablyon 5. But I much preferred it when it was conspiratorial and paranoid not prescient to the point of wondering if you had a time machine

I’ll eventually start posting here more often. Even as kind as this network is, I’m still feeling meh about the social part of social networks. Perhaps a goal for this year will be for me to post at least once a week, something meaningful.

Today was it. Enough is enough. Canceled my forever subscribed subscription to the Washington Post. Thankful to still be a NY Times subscriber. But Bezos has ruined the Post. Time to vote with my wallet.

Most days it’s just about surviving. I miss the days where life had meaning.

For those who love #lego and building with bricks, this is a great set to start with from a different company! All prints. Funky minifigs. But for $28 and 514 pieces a cool set. And every set they make comes with lights!
