Excited to find a cute juvenile western #toad (Anaxyrus boreas) in my #pollinator garden. This is one reason I don't use pesticides/herbicides, or take out all the leaves/completely clean out the flower beds. I'll put out a shallow saucer of water and some pieces of wood for it to hide under. #Boise

I planted 7 barrels at Clairvoyant Microbrewery, at 28th and Idaho in Boise, with native Idaho perennials. Excited to watch these evolve as the plants grow. I already have native bumblebees visiting them.

This is a really bad idea, that will come back to bite us.

Meriwether Grapefruit Rosemary hard cider at Clairvoyant Brewery at 28th and Idaho in Boise. Very good.

So, I was doing some gardening today. Never bruised my left hand like this before.

My pasque flowers are blooming. #pollinatorgarden

An A-10 Warthog just crashed in the Strait of Hormuz. Current Warthogs are used by Air Guards in 4 states, including #Idaho. Defense officials report that the pilot was rescued. This after a US F15 was shot down over Iran, and an Apache helicopter team searching for F15 was hit by a missile. #Iran

I miss nut brown beers and ambers. I'm told those are old people beers.

I played with puppies again. ♥️ This time it was adorable 7-week old Norwegian Elk Hound pups. They were very interested in shoe laces.

🇺🇦President Zelenskyy: Over the past week, Russia launched nearly 1,550 attack drones against Ukraine, more than 1,260 guided aerial bombs, and two missiles. Over that same week, due to the easing of sanctions, Russia increased its crude oil sales to finance its war.

In a buried report, oil regulators pinpointed nearly 600 wells operating illegally, threatening Oklahoma’s drinking water. Then there were 1,400+ wells that had operated for decades without any limits at all — grandfathered in from an earlier era. With @readfrontier.bsky.social

Happy St. Patrick's Day.

Refinishing some tables at Clairvoyant in Boise. They have good beer, wine and hard selzers. You should come enjoy the patio in this great weather that's coming up. 2800 W Idaho St.

This is reprehensible, but not surprising from this administration.

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

Happy Pi Day! I present an apple raspberry pie.

“But, as you see, it's a beautiful day, the Strait of Hormuz is open and people are having a wonderful time.”

Here’s something you might not know if you’re not super rich. Today is the day that people who make $1 million a year stop paying into Social Security. Working people pay all year, but the rich get a break. Lift the cap and pull millions of seniors out of poverty.

So, if Trump's health rapidly declined and Vance assumed the Presidency, would Vance get us out of Iran and not go into Cuba, or would he double down on both?

Caught the #Idaho Vandal Marching Band from Moscow, in downtown Boise, celebrating the "Starch Madness" Big Sky Conference tournament. I love marching bands!

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

We've got to stop this.

Maj. Gen. Randy Manner (Ret.): "It's a little bit disheartening to hear that the UK govt is arranging transport for the British citizens, whereas here as Americans we feel abandoned. The State Dept is in survival mode because as we know the administration reduced their budget by almost half."

Went down a genealogy rabbit hole and found out my 4th Great Grandfather was one of LDS Prophet Joseph Smith's body guards in Nauvoo, IL during the "troublesome times of that period". Color me stunned.

This is a truly horrifying memo. It says that the policy of the US government will now be to proactively seek out and arrest likely tens of thousands of refugees who entered legally under Biden and subject them to detention, where they will be interrogated about their status.

Corporate media executives are selling out the First Amendment to curry favor with corrupt politicians. This is the most dangerous kind of cancel culture — the kind that comes from the top. The real fight in this country is not left vs right; it’s top vs bottom.
