Must read.

“Elon Musk is not a federal employee, nor has he been appointed by the President nor approved by the Senate to have any leadership role in government.”

1/ Musk seeking control over nerve systems of the federal government. As someone who spent a decade studying how centralized information systems are used for coercion this is a five alarm fire. We need to name it, identify risks, and seek to mitigate their impacts.

Elon Musk’s Team Now Has Access to Treasury’s Payments System
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent gave Mr. Musk’s representatives at the so-called Department of Government Efficiency a powerful tool to monitor and potentially limit government spending.

Chums! Baby Fog here. I’m having some Girl Trouble. Cleo has developed an infatuation with me. She has learned the Back Leg Game but taken it to a new level. She is also quite keen on my ears. I have no experience of dealing with Girl Cats. Help! ❤️ (full video on X / Instagram)

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever.

#books #reading #booksky #poetry
A poem by Langston Hughes titled "Tired". It reads as the following: "I am so tired of waiting, Aren't you, For the world to become good And beautiful and kind? Let us take a knife And cut the world in two -- And see what worms are eating At the rind."

Unfortunately, I only live a few blocks away from Vile Vance. My goal is to stay off the ss radar so I stay far away from that side of the neighborhood. Last night I randomly heard XMAS music and it was calming. Going to fully lean in and put up XMAS lights to sooth my sanity.

Eastern Bluebird

Delicate beauty is all around us. Don't miss the moment of wonder...
A small Eastern Bluebird, with blue feathers and a white and tan chest, is perched on a thin branch. The background is blurry green.

p.s. don't forget, alt-text is good, turn it on to be required in your settings, thanks
A bluebird on a wooden post in the right of frame, facing left. The background is blurry autumnal yellow. The bluebird looks stalwart in the face of some unknown force or threat. Or maybe he's just anxious. Who can say? Photo by me, Chuck Wendig In an autumnal yellow tree, a cedar waxwing perches -- leaning forward -- on a lower branch, what may be a yellowjacket wasp pinched in its beak. In the upper right is a harder-to-see waxwing, too, mostly concealed. Photo by me, Chuck Wendig Close-up portrait shot of a tree-concealed Cooper's Hawk. The hawk is facing up and to the right, its eyes a golden-orange hue. Can only see half the bird -- upper half, obviously. The bird looks vigilant. Or maybe constipated, I dunno. Photo by me, Chuck Wendig An absolute borb-shaped birb. This bird is a gray junco, and it is perfectly round and fuzzy and looks like a dumpling, but don't eat it, it's not a dumpling, it's a bird. White middle, gray upper, tiny beak, beady black eyes. It seriously doesn't look real. It's on an evergreen branch with a little pinecone propped next to it. Photo by me, Chuck Wendig
