The front yard used to be divided into three parts by neglected, sickly boxwoods. I'm finally removing the last of them. I'm gonna make that yard big, functional, and pretty. 95% of the job is destruction. 5% will be planting the flower beds in a new location.

My wife commented that she had black lint between her toes because she wore some black socks. That, my friends, is why we don't wear fuzzy underwear.

Last night I rode my bike to the grocery store with the trailer attached, wearing my nice vintage Bergdorf Goodman jacket. I got a lot of "Nice bike" comments. The trailer changes people's perception of the bike SO much. It also makes me safer on the roads. More respect means more safety. @Bikesky

Looking at the City/County Safety Action Plan, and I get to the survey responses. There is one person who responded that uses a bicycle as their primary transportation. You're welcome. #Bikesky

My city just published the 2025 Safety Action Plan. I'm going through upcoming changes. Multiple project incoming bringing protected bicycle lanes on US Bike Route #1 and elsewhere. Renderings show planters being used as separation. Are they doing it right‽ YAY! #Bikesky

Zohran Mamdani doesn’t make me, an American Jew, feel unsafe.
Having the Coast Guard, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, decide that a swastika isn’t really a symbol of hate? That makes me, an American Jew, feel pretty damn unsafe.

In Portland, ICE contends with people in inflatable costumes humiliating them. Chicago, California, and elsewhere it's similar. Now they've come to North Carolina, where we understand how to treat people politely. Here, ICE is starting to feel threatened. They should. Not by me, but I sense danger.

A speeding ticket in North Carolina is going to cost you around $200. I wonder which would have a greater impact on speeding in this state; increasing this cost to $500, or actually having the police enforce the law. I do my part by holding up traffic at the speed limit. I mean, it does say "Limit."

In my quest to do something productive without being complained at/to/about, I'm halfway through raking the yard. I've also chopped down all but the last crappy boxwood. It's going down later today. Also, the Countess had a successful bike lesson.

Dear flat earthers. We are not trying to shut you up. We are not trying to "silence the truth." In reality, we are pointing at you and telling our friends to listen to you, because you're so hilariously full of crap we use you as entertainment.

My wife has very strong opinions on things, and this morning it is her strong opinion that The Sopranos theme song is the greatest TV theme song of all time. I offered alternatives, but in the end I just had to break out the big guns and respond, "Bless your heart."

We used to have a rule. Anyone that sends the military against American citizens is the bad guy. It might not have always been accurate, but it was the rule. Now, it's the President.

Reddit's /r/libertarian used to be such a nice place. I got banned recently for being snarky in a post about Tucker Carlson saying nice things about that Fuentes jerk. If that gets me banned, do I really want to be there anyway? Nope. I'm out.

It's been almost two weeks since we lost Abbie the princess kitty. It hurt a lot, but we've been so busy caring for Seymour in his recovery, we haven't had time to deal with much else. Soon, this one's gonna hurt.

Watching @hankgreen.bsky.social talk about Stonehenge and it occurs to me why it exists. Some guy learned to track the sun with sticks, but they didn't stay. He tried rocks, but some loudmouth jerk kicked them away. "Kick this," he said, and he made it out of huge rocks.

I suspect that the people pulling the strings are starting to feed the dipshit talking points to tank his popularity. The game is keeping him in office until post-mid-term impeachment, giving Vice-Dipshit a chance at 2.5 terms instead of just 1.5.

My Steam Completion Rate is once again 43%. It dropped for a year or two to 42%. Working that number up gives me a chance to play a bunch of cool little games I'd never have played otherwise. Let's go 44!

I share a wedding anniversary with my brother. The Countess and I have tolerated each other for 32 years today. My brother and his wife have tolerated each other for even longer.

Hey, I know EXACTLY why Christie bombed at the box office. I was aware of the movie for less than one week before its release because I saw a link to the trailer. That was the ONLY thing I saw anywhere, ever, until I heard the movie was out and bombing.

Seymour the protector cat is now hopping from high spot to high spot, shoulder riding, and begging for scritches. He's not at 100% yet, and has a little way to go, but he's SO MUCH better. I'm still amazed at how willingly he accepted help, from loud sawing to vet to bath. Good kitty.

Our local movie house is Spring Lane Cinemas in Sanford, NC. With donated players, discs, and tapes, they have created a free movie rental space that is now turning into a full, '90s style movie rental store. Still, all free.

One good thing that might come out of this is that China might declare war on space junk. Someone needs to eventually, and it isn't like the US is going to do anything useful these days.
