Used to work, basically retired now. Used to travel a lot, now less so. Used to think politics mattered. Mostly reading, writing, cleaning the house, & doing crosswords these days. Not a fascist.
Preparing for Saturday's protest in the Portland area. Am accepting pithy nominations for the "B" side. I do not have a frog costume, alas.

"War-ravaged” Portland, in fact, is very still & chill today. Not sure why the regime feels the need to lie about what it’s like here.

Yet ferocious animals such as these roam the Portland streets!

From Rebecca West's account of Yugoslavia during the late 1930s & 40s, "The Black Lamb and Grey Falcon." A perceptive observer, though frequently a poor conclusions drawer, she nailed this familiar sounding theme of her times.

May I suggest a rhubarb, marionberry, strawberry crisp? It proves one’s love for a spouse.

@hntdove.bsky.social I’ll call your Rand Paul post & raise with this.

My favorite donut shop in California has this poster up in plain view. An immigrant runs the place. He came here with nothing. Fed his family & many others. He keeps the local grumpy old men off the streets with good enough coffee. I don't know that I could find a finer patriot.
