Huh?

Spot on, my friend!

Yes! I’m in for a boardwalk post. An OG, “mature” boardwalk in Playa Avellana, Costa Rica.

Birds, bugs, fish, whatever. Let’s see some #NewYearsEveIridescence Itsy bitsy spider (not!) in the prairie grass.

Winter Solstice solo pheasant hunt yesterday. Lots of snow and blown over cattails made for tough walking for 60yo human and 9.75yo good girl. Some bad luck and bad shooting made it a long and hard 17k step day, but we ground out our three. Grateful

Hey @atticus59914029.bsky.social , you got this one?

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

God bless you Canucks - you are a nice, chill and quirky lot - more Red Green Show and The Great White North type content, please! 🇨🇦

Well said. Is this the alt @radiofreetom.bsky.social account?

@walterolson.bsky.social, not up to your stds, but 2nt was wild hvstd (today) cold smoked and then sautéed duck breast over mixed grains. Cold smoked for 1 hr, and then cooked hot/fast in butter/oil infused with onions, garlic and poultry herbs. Rdux finished with fig preserve, bourbon and mpl syrup

American Larches (Tamaracks) in their full fall glory soaking up the super moon.

Give it to LA. They had to win two on the road to close out the Series, and they did - in uber dramatic fashion. What a Series!

Our view this morning on the prairie as we set our goose and duck spread.

💯 The choices are clear and simple: pro-democracy vs authoritarianism. We can worry about specific policy differences later.

Very fun North Dakota pheasant opener, this time in SW North Dakota, many hours from home. 20,000+ human steps. The old lady (Minny, 9.5yo lab) did great - like she was a pup again. #hunting

I’ll play! Some brilliant Chicken of the Woods that caught my attention recently while mountain biking in NW MN.

Can confirm. Saw ribeye at 25.99/lb at a *grocery store* (not restaurant) last week, in cattle country! So. Much. Winning!

Again, political violence has no place in this country. I probably don’t agree with Charlie Kirk on a damn thing, but that doesn’t matter - he’s a husband and a father. This is despicable and can’t become our new normal.

@bradmossesq.bsky.social, getting nervous yet? 😳🤣😆 Vikes QB is awful, Vikes D can’t tackle, and somehow the Vikes are up by three with 10 to go.

God, I love Canadians. Vancouver Island, BC. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Brand new grand puppy and future huntress, Nala. I hope my oldest son and his wife have as much fun with and are as fulfilled by their Labs as my wife and I have been with ours.

Greetings and happy Fourth of July from Northwest Minnesota. Let freedom ring and democracy, justice and the rule of law prevail. #NOKINGS

Five. Alarm. Fire.

Trump calls for deporting US citizens: "We also have a lot of bad people that have been here for a long time ... many of them were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here too, if you want to know the truth. So maybe that'll be the next job."

Wide open, blatant corruption.

A little break from all the crap going on. LET’S. GO. #OILERS.

Pretty well sums things up. Turns out surgery with a chainsaw is a horrible idea.

It is truly a 10-alarm fire that he's giving such a hatefully partisan speech in front of cheering uniformed troops.

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

Hey @atticus59914029.bsky.social and @theorchardkeeper.bsky.social , aren’t these guys from your parts? Blackberry Smoke in Mankato, MN on a gorgeous June night.

So he raised the tariffs, paused that raise, paused that pause, then paused that pause of the pause. And no-one knows if it'll be paused again (and if such a pause will be unpaused) or what happens when (or if) the pause whose pause was paused concludes.

The thought of eliminating defined terms in any legal document causes this dinosaur transactional lawyer to break out in hives. 🤣

I'd love for the Supreme Court to order a subpoena enforced and cut down the pretensions of this trampler of rights.

Under this theory, there is also nothing that prevents them from shipping *American citizens* to a gulag in El Salvador and saying "nothing we can do."

Found an absolute gem of a rails-to-trails ride on the front end of our first mostly-retired roadtrip. @atticus59914029.bsky.social and @theorchardkeeper.bsky.social , lock up the women and children - riff raff temporarily in the vicinity.

A fair Lake Winnipeg “greenback” walleye from last weekend. The third of six planned fishing and hunting trips to #Canada 🇨🇦 in 2025. To our Canadian neighbors and friends, many of us Americans continue to appreciate and respect you very much and will support you in any way we can.

Sending a Russian dissent back to Russia to be tortured and/or killed perfectly encapsulates this loathsome administration’s lack of American values.

This business of sending people to a prison that's hell on earth with no due process, of making a spectacle of them like Noam did, of casually coveting Canada and Greenland, of menacing the media and universities into silence - it's sickening and I'm so deeply ashamed of my country.

Lake trout, perch and whitefish on the Canadian Shield. 🇨🇦 Last meal choice, and not even close.

Lake of the Woods, Ontario, Canada. 🇨🇦. Unbelievable beauty and tranquility. Not all of us Yanks are unappreciative of our friends and neighbors.

This is a five alarm fire.

One thing to keep in mind with Trump's tariffs is that he (and many other people in Washington!) genuinely believe that US trade deficits mean other countries are cheating and trade deals have been unfair to US. They are wrong but they genuinely believe it. And that leads to bad US trade policy.

JPMorgan's David Kelly on tariffs: am.jpmorgan.com/us/en/asset-...

The only significant international agreement Trump concluded in his first term was USMCA, the trade agreement with Canada & Mexico, which he now grossly violates: Conclusion: it is meaningless to negotiate with Trump because he is patently unreliable. Stay away!

Musk calling Social Security a "ponzi scheme" while pushing Trump to start a crypto reserve (subsidizing an actual ponzi scheme) is the perfect embodiment of 2025 in America.

Some specks through the ice tonight @atticus59914029.bsky.social

As the US votes with North Korea and Belarus at the UN, Musk says we need to more like El Salvador. 🇺🇸

Your regular reminder McConnell could have taken care of this in January 2021
