I love and admire wood and woodworking. Have done some. Love a good conversation. Have cats; a large male Maine Coon mix and a tiny Tortie female. Too old to be a childless cat woman and besides I have a child. I can get excited over music...And rocks!

The richest man in the world, an unelected robber baron oligarch billionaire with a 36% approval rating bought the presidency, seized the treasury and the media is barely talking about it. The real world has become the twilight zone.

New White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt did her first press briefing today and told a number of demonstrable lies (about condoms for Gaza, the criminal records of undocumented migrants, and more).

This is how the New York Times covered it.

Deleted after 20 minutes but this is the mindset.

It’s what is said in private among themselves.

This is how they think about the rest of the world.

No one is considered an ally.

There will be no discussion.

Yeah no I’m done being the better person I hope everyone who voted for him experiences four years straight of misery and pain.

And that they know that even those who are the bigger person will be too busy helping the people who didn’t ask for this to give even the slightest fuck about them.

Damn, RIP David Lynch. It’s been a tough week, personally, so this is hitting me harder than it might have otherwise.

Remember to cherish the moments you have and give yourself little presents every day.

For the last week, @kenbensinger.bsky.social and I have been in Altadena, to report on the devastation. But we kept coming back to an Arco gas station, which a group of locals have turned into a beacon of hope with tacos, clothes and community. This is their story: www.nytimes.com/2025/01/15/u...
Tacos, Water and ‘Homies’: A Gas Station Becomes a Uniquely L.A. Relief Site
Out of desperation and a need for social bonding, volunteers have banded together to help Altadena residents.
