Our Super Bowl party loved it!

Way to go! #Seahawks #SuperBowl

My contributions to today’s Super Bowl spread at my sister’s: shrimp cocktail and a Seahawks Breeze drink. It’s got vodka, limoncello, blue curaçao and club soda. Cheers! #pnw #GoSeahawks

Here’s some #SundayYellow for you — moth orchids at Tacoma’s W.W. Seymour Botanical Conservatory. Hope your weekend is going well and #GoSeahawks! #pnw

Shitler was specifically asked by a reporter whether he was going to apologize for his hateful, racist post about the Obamas, a post that stayed up for 12 hours. His answer: “No, I didn’t make a mistake.”

Love how they’re scrambling for a scapegoat. Someone will have to take the fall for this (and be rewarded with a cushy job). Still no apology though.

I thought I couldn’t be more disgusted with Shitler’s behavior. I was wrong. (Gift article)

What a beautiful day for a train trip to Portland. Sunny and 59°, with Mount Hood in all her glory as we crossed the Columbia. We had time to walk to Lovejoy Bakers for sandwiches before heading back to Tacoma. #pnw #wawx

A sad day for journalism. Bezos can eff off.

James Comer is bringing Hillary Clinton before his committee to testify about Epstein despite having zero contact with him, but not Epstein’s neighbor Howard Lutnick who lied about his connections to Epstein over many years which is proven in the files.

Unbelievable as it may seem, a lot of MAGAts are pointing to this as a “Biden crime family” scandal. Jill dumped his ass a half century ago!

My walking buddy and I tried a new place for lunch — Mom’s Pho & Grill in Lakewood’s International District. We split a fresh spring roll, and I had the grilled chicken vermicelli bowl and she had the shrimp and tofu bowl. We’ll be back! #pnw

Hey, #Portland (OR): Is there anyplace VERY near Union Station to grab a quick lunch? I’m coming up empty for a train trip later his week. #pnw

Rumor at Tacoma Mall is that longtime tenant Fuego is closing soon when its lease expires. Everything is half off and no new merchandise is coming in, a salesperson told me. She sees the handwriting on the wall and has lined up another job. Too bad; that was a funky little shop.

Just spitballin’ here: Russia?

250 years ago, Americans rebeled against a king and stood up to his army. Today we’re called upon to repeat history. Be among those who can look back and say, “ I did my part.”

I walked today at Wright Park in Tacoma, where I shot a camellia blooming outside and some orchids inside the W.W. Seymour Botanical Conservatory. #pnw #wawx

When a song hits #1 on Apple Music in 19 countries within one day, you know the world is paying attention. Truth to power! Thank you, Bruce!

The guy on the right is New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, photographed at the Kennedy Center premiere of “Melania.” #GoSeahawks!

I have this sad mental picture of a very old Melania, sitting alone in her gold-appointed nursing-home room and watching her vanity project movie on an endless loop.

They came for him at almost midnight so he’d have to spend the night in jail, his lawyer says. All they had to do was tell him what time to give himself in, but no. The intimidation is the point.

Save the date! #NoKings #AbolishICE

It took more than 24 feds to arrest a journalist? What were they afraid of? That he might attack them with a ballpoint pen?

Seahawks for sale????

How mild has this winter been in the #pnw? I shot my neighbor Gwen’s daffodils today — the earliest I think I’ve ever seen them in full bloom. It’s 53° out and expected to hit 60° next week. #wawx #FlowersOnFriday

So … tell us what you really think. 😀

Yes, it really is about letting more of the most vulnerable get sick and die. Gift article.

Read this and you’ll understand why Renée Good was executed for saying, “I’m not mad at you.”

Of course Philip Glass pulled his opera from the Kennedy Center. It would be an outrage if it were to be performed there.

An American Street: One picture tells the story of what it looks like when fascism comes to town. Gift article.

Shitler’s saying Ihlan Omar probably staged the attack on herself. Everything’s a projection with this jerk. I wonder how she convinced one of HIS supporters to go along with a scheme that could land him in prison for a long time?

Just saw film of the attack on Rep. Ilhan Omar. She was having none of it and went off on the guy. Fierce!

Where is Alex Pretti’s camera? Has it been found, or was it confiscated by his killers? Can what he recorded be retrieved from the cloud?

The sun keeps trying to break through on this cloudy Tuesday in the #pnw. Rain is supposed to come in overnight. We need it — this has been a near-record dry January. #wawx

How hilarious would it be if Vance’s first act after You Know Who has “left the scene” is to have Stephen Miller arrested for elder abuse.

This is heartbreaking. 🥲

A Northern flicker takes a break from eating sunflower seeds to peek into my patio window. Its mate is nearby, likely keeping an eye out for a neighbor’s cat that sometimes wanders through my yard. #pnw

NO tickets have been sold for this evening’s showing of “Melania” at my nearby AMC theater. Two tickets have been sold for the early bird show at 4 pm.

John Fugelsang says we shouldn’t compare drumpf to Hitler. Except in these ways. Must read!

If your heart needs a moment of peace . . .

So the shittiest Superman is blaming the victim for his own murder. Eff this guy.

We got some clearing and a high temp of 46° today in the South Sound, making for a pleasant walk around Waughop Lake. We’re feeling pretty lucky here in the #pnw, what with moderate winter weather and a team going to the Super Bowl! #wawx #Lakewood

Every now and then I check in on X. Holy moly it’s 🦇💩 crazier than ever over there. The comments about Alex Pretti are despicable.

ICE agents are filming Minnesotans who are filming them and telling them they are going into a database of domestic terrorists — for exercising their First Amendment rights. Time to start wearing face masks again.

Way to go — to the Super Bowl! 💙💚

My walking buddy protests with a group on an overpass in Puyallup. Her latest sign is one of her best.

So someone on BlueSky called me the c-word for posting about a football game. Others are critical of posting about something as trivial as football when so many awful things are happening. So we shouldn’t post photos of pets, flowers or sunsets either? C’mon. We can resist AND live our lives.

“Freedom is not free.” 😪
