I heard a GOP leader from FL say last night that there are NO protests in TX. Yes, there are protests in TX, just not covered by MSM. I’m so proud of Dallas.

Shoot this right into thune and liddle moses' veins.

JFC. So glad I’m not having to drive to OKC anymore. ICE ops impeding the right to travel freely, causing a 26 mile backup out of TX.

Here’s some of those “rules”Rand Paul wants. And some accountability.

Alexander Hamilton warned that when a government betrays its people, the right of self-defense remains. “If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is no resource left but the original right of self-defense.”(Federalist Papers, No. 28)

The angry white guys with guns around here must be expecting a war. I hear several out target shooting. In 30° weather, snow & ice covering everything.

Well, our 3 day ice/snow storm is lasting 6 days. Not much melting today, freezing fog overnight & hard freeze. Schools are closed again tomorrow, roads are still ice covered.

It’s my theory that just about 100% of women have been assaulted in some way. But might not recognize what happened as sexual assault. I can think of several incidents in which speech was a sexual assault.

This is a 1st - the stock pond is frozen over.

Tip.

This whole thing is amazing but this part really sings.

The goal of nonviolent civil resistance is not to convince the regime they're wrong. The goal of #NonviolentCivilResistance is to convince the people to work together to make it impossible for the regime to sustain itself. We aren't nonviolent for the regime. We're nonviolent for each other.

Looks like an ice, wind & f’n cold event for us. And we have a leaking water tank. So, off to TSC for a new one before the temp drops. Rain was supposed to move in after 9 - it’s been raining since 7:30.

We’re gonna need a bigger Third Reconstruction.

I need like 9 things. Going 1st thing in the am. If panic hoarders are already busy there won’t be anything on the shelves tomorrow afternoon & Friday.

Based on reports & videos I’ve seen, seems ICE doesn’t even bother to get an administrative warrant before busting into houses & cars.

Coyotes. Several. I’ve seen folks complaining it’s an eerie & scary sound. But I love the sound. And, it lets me know there’s noting but nature surrounding me.

Not the precipitation we need.

True! Nobody leaves my house without at least 2 dozen eggs. I’m really tired of eating eggs.

Umm. Yeah, a couple of my family members have seen all the videos from all the angles. They completely buy into it was Good’s fault she was shot. “She should’ve not been there aggravating ICE” and “she shouldn’t have tried to run him over”. And that’s why I live 1,200 miles away from them.

The turkeys are back.

Well, crap. Coming my way. I’m glad for the rain but this wasn’t in the forecast.

Red sky at night…no rain. 😟

Walking my very old black dog on a dark night, can’t see him. Listening for sounds of poopage & staring at the sky. Playing with my phone camera. Looking towards Dallas, so there’s light pollution. The camera picks up more stars than I can see. Hmm. Good camera or old eyes?

Holy shit! I changed a MAGA: “Turns out all this time Babs has been correct. Trump is fascist and he is crazy. Honestly, we probably would have been better off if Kamala had won. At least her administration probably wouldn’t be going all over the world using our military for acts of aggression…”

Stop living for others approval, start living for yourself. Shifting your mindset will help you let go of the fear of judgment, creating a lighter, freer, life that is genuinely yours rather than caring what others think: Authenticity over approval, clarity over confusion, peace over performance.

Ron. Politely asking for scratches.

They found me. Now they are just going to stare at me until I head to the barn for breakfast.

Jan 6 wasn't a moment. It was a warning. Remembering it today is not about reliving trauma. It’s about refusing to normalize political violence and democratic erosion. Democracy survives through participation. And silence has consequences. #january6 #democracy #jan6 #savannah #Indivisible

Red sky at morning…maybe it’s finally going to rain.

kind of darkly funny that "gender studies" is the stereotypical "useless degree" because gender studies will help you understand a large and important chunk of the current psychosis in american life

Goats & chickens are herded up with the donkeys today. Good idea, since we don’t know what’s lurking in the creek.

Trail camera says we caught a coyote. Looks like the tail end of a fox to me. I heard a bunch of yapping, woke me up - didn’t sound like coyotes.

PLATNER: “The illegal attack on Venezuela is not foreign policy — it’s gangsterism on an international scale.”

I believe the same is true about kids & horses. No such thing as a bad dog, horse or kid. Undesired behavior is a trauma response. Understand & work with the trauma & the response behavior can be changed.

See, I'm not interested in seeing the leader of another country held accountable for legitimate crimes...until I see the leader of THIS country held accountable for legitimate crimes. I'm funny like that.

Starting off the new year with Sheldon. Who can’t get enough scratches. I just spent 20 minutes scratching his poll.

Before fireworks, check the weather! If you're in a burn ban or an elevated risk area, especially if there are red flag warnings -- stop! Check the dewpoint temperature: If it's less than 60ºF then vegetation is likely very dry. Protect your neighbors. Don't burn down their homes.

I'm sorry, but Americans' obsession with fireworks is stupid. Professionally done fireworks where the community gathers is a fine tradition, but fireworks should not be available in stores to set off in your backyard and disturb the neighborhood and traumatize dogs and wildlife.

What a coincidence. Elon Musk is being sanctioned in France for election rigging. And there are still people who think Trump won. They probably also think he was shot. Hilarious!

Here comes winter. It’s 84°, heading to 32°. Wind was SW 3/4 mph, now NW 5/7 mph - heading to 50 mph. Temps crashing fast, down to 80° in 15 minutes. Gotta love NTX summer/winter…

“I think they target rodeos because they are looking for young men with a high probability of being masculine and patriotic,” Of course. Every event at a rodeo requires animal abuse to be competitive. Where else can you find “masculine & patriotic” men obviously willing to abuse animals & people?

Yikes.
