Most folks don't know this, but many Native Americans don't "celebrate" Thanksgiving the way the rest of the country does.

For us, it's a National Day of Mourning. It's a time to honor our ancestors, remember the truth of what happened on this land, and hold space for all the lives, cultures ...

Unintentional and unexpected wind chimes to accompany our evening meal. The breeze coming in the kitchen window is gently clinking the pots and pans hanging from the rail above our stove. Don't recall this ever happening before. Breeze must be coming from just the right direction. 🎶 🎵

Wow, what a JOB ! Tried to remove 3 Chain-Link Fence posts in our yard that were no longer wanted. Thought it would be easy. They were sunk into 32 inches of concrete ! Who DOES that? Dug and dug. Finally had to go buy this Hi-Lift jack to pull the posts out. (Have always wanted a jack like this)👍

NPR just sued Trump over his unconstitutional executive order gutting federal funding for public media.

Kudos to them for standing up for the First Amendment. It reminds me of when Mr. Rogers stood up to Nixon's attempts to gut public broadcasting 56 years ago.

Trump is urging GOP lawmakers to defund PBS "immediately". He's not the first right-wing crook to wage war on public bro

Our urban deer that frequent the evening shade in our backyard have returned. While they were standing, we determined they must be pregnant. Their udders are quite large. Perhaps in a few weeks or so they will bring their fawns, and bed them down under our Lilacs. That would be neat... (stay tuned)

Past 3 days, we've had these two visitors in our yard. We live right in town neighbors and streets all around us. Sometimes they're here in the morning, sometimes in the evening. Often they leave, then return. We don't bother them, and they seem to not mind us wandering around quite near to them.

Smoked a pork loin this afternoon. Used Applewood chips. Tried a new (to us) spice rub recipie, which we will tweak ingredients a bit for our next smoke session. Loin turned out tender and Juicy with a nice smoke ring & flavor. Thanks to Tessa, for all her help with prep, and suggestions.

If blue states, invented a method to withhold transfers to the IRS, we'd be in a much better negotiating position. Moneys transferred could be ( for instance ;-) dependent on payments made and programs continued, records maintained and aid distributed.

This flew under the radar, but Trump says his administration won't enforce an anti-money laundering law that requires corporations to disclose information on who really owns shell companies to the Treasury.

The U.S. Treasury Department will no longer enforce a "beneficial ownership" reporting requirements that are aimed at curbing money laundering and shell company formation.

So we don't get less expensive groceries, we don't get better healthcare, we don't get gainful employment.

But we DO get multiple communicable diseases.

The next best protest to attend, is the one nearest you.

If you can't find it, organize it.

They’d have to physically carry me out as I kicked, scratched, bit, punched, pulled hair, spit, and screamed. But, hey, that’s me.

Can we get to March already?
March 2029 isn't too much to ask for, right?
