I closed my account when Elmo took over.
I've been thinking of opening a new one. It seems like a lot of our leaders are using it for official communication.
How do I stay informed without knowing what they are saying? I can't view entire posts; it always tells me I have to log in to read posts.

He also has openly criticized Shady Vance for his insulting portrayal of the people of Eastern Kentucky.

I'm beginning to think that's changing. I live a mile from the southern border of Indiana, and a lot of my favorite stores are there, closer than those in Louisville.

I am revising my opinion of my neighbors across the river.

I canceled my paid Spotify subscription over the Joe Rogan thing, after several of my favorite musicians pulled their music. It resulted in several of my playlists becoming almost empty.

I'm ashamed to admit that I switched to Amazon Music, but at least my favorites are still there.

My Golden Retriever just received her Antifa Canine Auxiliary badge yesterday. Should I send him the return address that's on the envelope? Would that help?

Yes! Born and raised in KCMO, dad's family all in CO just west of Denver. I-70 was like a 2nd home.
I actually think KS is beautiful. Rolling prairie and endless sky.

Sometimes AI gets it right. The Truth Social AI has been doing remarkably (and amusingly!) well.
