Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

@josephinejellybean.bsky.social Am Interested to understand the intentions and objectives of the writers of LLM. To mimic human thought? Pass turing test?

Still awaiting my George $oros payment for showing up at #NoKINGS_Day & staying until noon. Somebody slipped this 20 under my door, but something about it seems fake.

ATTENTION PLEASE:

We’ve become a bad joke.

Garden comes down today.

Every projection is a confession

There are too many of us to ignore. #NoKings

📅 Oct 18 - No kings - Near you – show up. Volume of people = volume of presence. Peaceful protest gets heard when numbers are undeniable. ✊ Add your voice. Repost. Bring others. Some are already trying to muzzle the press. Pentagon lost all its reporters this week.

Chumming for foxes!!

Donald Trump’s second term has moved decisively into fascist territory.Fascism is defined by authoritarian ultranationalism, suppression of dissent, erosion of democratic norms, and power consolidation. Trump 47’s record shows these traits: mass deportations backed by military force, including the

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece. It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out. 1/2

I don't understand why I see things so differently. I see a health insurance industry that thinks it's entitled to charge people 1/3rd of their income for healthcare. That industry shouldn't be "fixed." It should be burned to the ground and its ashes pissed on.

Nearly final harvest.

Trump tells NATO members they need to cut off Russia energy purchases before he will take bigger steps to isolate Russia over its war in Ukraine.

Call Congress to demand he resign, gets fired, or is impeached. 202/224-3121

Cool night at car show. Rt 23 Kohls. Thu eve

@stankgoblin.bsky.social wow!!

Who needs pumpkins!!

Deer pushed in ... Crafty... Ate string beans .. ok?? Will come back with posse? Countered with smart floodlight. Didn't turn on siren. Does talk though "you are being recorded"

Hertling: When you saw Trump talking about how this is Biden’s war, saying it could have been prevented if Zelensky had just done X, Y, or Z — it’s ludicrous. This is a war that Putin has been planning and carried out on his own.

Is this guy out of hardware? militarywatchmagazine.com/article/russ...

Try planting a few popcorn kernels ... Cats love em!! These two survived!

@mantou.bsky.social do you get into lipids ?? Was asking ChatGPT about different lipid particles and which are dangerous . Interesting patterns...

Giant beefsteak tomato plant snapped it's ( stout ) twine hanging lines. Damn hope they ripen soon!! Like small pumpkins!! BLT time soon!!!

Newsom: Here we are in plain sight before one vote is cast in the 2026 midterm election and here he is once again trying to rig the system. He does not play by a different set of rules, he does not believe in the rules.

First car show ! Good to meet some car maniacs of the region.

Cuke leaves that are smitten with sap sucking bugs:

He's a true leader.

Brought some friends back from NYS trip .. some like white pines! Nursing then thru transplant shock

Talarico owns Will Cain so hard that he has to tap out of their interview based on "time"

Release the Epstein Files

So a president can deploy the DC national guard without needing approval. Funny, I was told something different with regards to January 6.

Today's harvest and tomorrows!! Next week's tomatoes are huuuuge!!

Assassin bug nymph? Got a few egg cases from arbico... This guy was on patrol!!

I'm sorry, Charlotte, but this list needs to redone in Scaramuccis. @scaramucci.bsky.social

"So the tariff is paid in this country by the importer, is that right?" -- Eugene Robinson guides Scott Bessent into acknowledging that tariffs are in fact paid in the United States, not by foreign governments

@flutterbyflora.bsky.social what's fav way to take on bugs like mites? Last 2 years, I did lady bugs, but they just fly away. Assassin bugs and Phytoseiulus persimilis are next try. Hoping cuke plants can survive!!

Does anyone have suggestions for dealing with mites in vegetable garden? Don't want to lose all the progress.
