You think taking a young child to the first day of kindergarten is tough - take a pup to the groomers every few months. It's even more difficult because independent groomers can be flighty. They may be in business for multiple grooming & the pup gets used to them, then they suddenly "disappear".

Great to see Jimmy back. And as I said earlier, now do Stephen.

Boycott Disney. The lesson has not yet been fully absorbed. As far as Sinclair goes, time to start boycotting their station's advertisers. Sinclair only cares about profit. We control those profits. Show them how. Spend only at places that advertise with companies that value our constitution.

Now uncancel Stephen!

Did I have a dream last night that we are just batteries to run the tech in the houses of the oligarchy? Or was that in a movie I watched again recently? Or maybe I'm in a coma? Kinda hoping I wake soon and find this is all a horrible nightmare. 🤔

Let’s give them the Tesla treatment.

I know some of the YouTubers I watch could be red hats. Wisely, they've kept their politics to themselves. However, with the recent assassination - a few felt the need to tell the world how much they admired the guy. Now they have one less subscriber. Their choice, my choice. That's democracy.

It's taken me a while to realize that the Star Wars franchise was sold to the Empire.... And I'm canceling the payment of my monthly "taxes" to support it.

2022 — a confession:

Breaking: Please lean over toilet before reading

Right? All the old school heroes are dying while the villains still live on.

Justice Sonia Sotomayor tore into Pam Bondi: “Every time I listen to a lawyer-trained representative saying we should criminalise free speech in some way, I think to myself, that law school failed.”

Why do I feel like some of the new accounts popping up as "followers" on BlueSky seem like one step away from those with OnlyFans accounts? They feature a couple of reposts, weird descriptions, few followers, and semi-provocative photos with faces covered. I guess I'm a prude. Muted & blocked!

I remember a time (before tRump) when Europe & Japan was more affordable. The $ is suffering against all currencies. The Euro is only one.

Well, I said there would be a major announcement. Europe does not dislike Americans. However, mention tRump in the positive, you might get a drink dumped on you, a door closed in your face, or ignored outright. After visits to the UK, Norway, Germany, Belguim, & Denmark- sympathy is all I found.

@lexidh.catpasity.com You live in my favorite place in the world (besides home).

MEDIA ALERT: A major announcement coming soon as to why I've limited my posts over past 4 weeks.

Wouldn't it be cool if the smart folks at BlueSky could make their algorithm ONLY show you the very first time some new info is posted - not 5 regurgitations of the exact same info with different alleged authors? Seems like they could save presentation bandwidth, storage space, and our data usage.

A previously unpublished photo of the bed of "the man who would be king" with stairs to aid in getting his preponderance situated for a night of ALL CAPS raving.

This is the way

There she is again, giving me the "treat please" face. Loved it so much, I gave her a place to be with me all day, anytime. Yep. Crazy dog dad.

Like this like that like Like whatever would we do Without the word like #haiku (listening to high schoolers)

Someone surely is working on a facial recognition program that starts with the eyes and takes into account the hills and valleys of a face under a mask to figure out a probable identity. Then, with a bit of open source AI searching. Wallaa! Could be a very useful tool.

This feels like a spot of good news www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...

That little face! How could you resist giving a treat at any opportunity.

Stay #Woke What a 𝘏𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 way to be. #CorruptAndComplicitGOP #Resist

Live a life where people aren't happy when you die.

Traveling the world There is much to enjoy, but Norway settles my bones

Traveling the world Trump B S is distant noise Easier to squelch #haiku (trump noise)

Summer flowers and year-round art always lift the spirits.

@mightymite.bsky.social I like your new avatar.

I love this smile!

A new day, another bouquet. Hydrangea, Crocosmia, Zinnias (2 types), Black-Eyed Susan, and my perennial favorite - Common Sneezeweed. Growing and arranging flowers is excellent for one's blood pressure. I find myself with bouquet-in-arm immediately after reading about latest from the clown show.

A little bit of harvest today 25# of potatoes (3 varieties - only 2 shown) from about 4# of seed potatoes. All grown in bags. Not great, but not too bad a return. Already know what I did wrong this year. I need to plant earlier, start with less soil, more bags, and mound more. Always learning!

The Hummingbird is a beautiful little bird…. 🐦 🥰

A Hummingbird sits Surveying all the color Where to visit next? #haiku (Hummingbirds)

Today is my birthday (turning 29), which is the only time all year that I ask for a repost 🌿 I hope you get lost in fantasy worlds as much as I do 🔮

More & more color is showing up each day. By next week we'll be in full bloom - much of it lasting until late Sept. (See ALT) Even at Falls' end, no cleanup. The dead foliage is left as bug habitat & flower seeds are left for the overwintering birds. Our biggest cleanup is in early spring.

Rest in peace sweet bee You're surely in the good place With pollen sacks full #haiku (bee eulogy)

Stunning! Above and below in Alaska.

More color and interesting garden art showing up each day.

Can someone please explain why it is that too many politicians only seem to want the votes of the prejudiced and the ignorant? To the extent that they are actively repelling anyone capable of rational thought and decency. Why the pathetic need to appease the bigot vote, at everyone else’s expense?
