What to say? Retired from the corporate rat race. Fly fish, hike, and backpack but age and knees falling apart have seriously limited ability. But I’m still out there

Called my house rep Benz (OR) who voted against the discharge petition & said his aide lied last week saying he was for the release of the Epstein files. Added that I hope he votes for the release even though his dear leader would veto it. This handy app makes it easy

This is excellent.

1) I have a different take on the Senate’s vote. I was initially frustrated and angry over it too but have changed my mind. I think it was planned among Dems to have moderates not seeking reelection vote for the amendments to get the House back in session. Let them and agreed to take the fall.

Spotify’s founder, Daniel Ek, is another techno-fascist billionaire.
He’s invested in AI that specializes in war, surveillance and violence, so it’s no surprise he’s fine with running ICE ads on Spotify.
If you haven’t already, cancel your Spotify subscriptions. Let’s make them feel like Disney+.

The other arrest 🤦♀️
#NoKings event in Fairhope, Al.
A woman was arrested for "lewd conduct" because she was dressed in penis suit with a sign that said "No dick-tator"
3 cops on a 53 yo woman.

Shocked, I say, shocked
One of the few arrests that I have read about today. This is near Myrtle Beach, SC and she was driving around pointing a gun at protesters. Note the shirt.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social as always tells it like it really is. Anyone who thinks there are quick fixes, thinks there’s no gray or unintended consequences, or state they’re the only one who can fix it always kinda scare me.

Was supposed to backpack to Moraine Lake at the base of South Sister (Central Oregon Cascades US) but cancelled due to forecasted snow and rain. Looks like the right choice was made but I’m bummed (picture is north of South Sister and just to the north of North Sister)
