The dude on the left looks incredibly uncomfortable. Like he’s thinking, “They fell for it? We gave them a used junker airplane and now we get an air force base INSIDE the United States?!”

The sunset here in Utah was legit pretty. Looked to the east…woah…the colors coming off the clouds! Looked to the west, WOAH…the sky was pink and gold and blue. Called my boy over to grab a photo of the two of us. Even he stopped and just stared at the sky (and he stops for nothing).

Fantastic article on an even more fantastic subject. Love the images this photographer creates. Just epic.

So which figure is it Wapo? 800, 1000, 1,100? This is why so many of us no longer trust your reporting. Are you using AI to write this? And if you didn’t use AI, what has happened to your editorial staff to let such a poorly written article get published. A shame what has happened to your paper.

Random thoughts of a shorter-than-average 5’6” guy. I appreciate that these trees have grown tall enough now, that when I’m out for a walk, I don’t even have to bend down when walking under their canopy. Take that, tall people! Tbh…I kinda hate being so short. Ah well. Still a nice day for a walk!

Saying the quiet part out loud. Again. Plenary authority means he has complete and absolute power to take action on a specific issue, with no limitations…you know, like a dictator.

The October 2025 Harvest Full Moon (and a supermoon!) was beautiful to watch rise last night here in Utah. Photographed from South Jordan, looking east over Draper/Sandy- rising right above Little Cottonwood Canyon. Absolutely stunning. I’m feeling this moon too 🫣🤪 📷: Fujifilm X-T30II + XF150-600mm

Looking at the two colors (other than silver) on the iPhone 17 Pro Max and all I can see are the two big hardware stores. Silver it is then…

Tonight’s moonrise from South Jordan, Utah. We’re looking at a waxing gibbous moon at 98% illumination. Almost full! Have a good night, folks.

Love watching the craftsmanship and skills used to make this beautiful bespoke sevenfold silk tie by Fredrik Juul in Oslo, Norway. I don’t often wear a suit and tie, but when I do, there’s nothing quite like a properly tailored bespoke fit. You feel like a million bucks; or at least not a schlump.

It’s been 14 years today. He would have been 70… I wonder how he’d feel about everything going on in the world and our country right now? Not sure he’d be gifting the current President glass tokens of placation.

Such a very cool mechanical design. I’m glad there are folks out there a whole lot smarter than I am, who can create and build things like this. Yes, pulse oximeters and modern equipment is awesome, but I also just love analog tech sometimes.

Divided sky the wind blows high!!!! Some wild lightning here in the SLC tonight.

It’s nearly midnight and I’m wiped out. Or maybe I’m crashing out. Is there a difference? I can’t tell.

Got to try fufu from Togo 🇹🇬 tonight at our local food truck roundup! Served with a peanut-butter chicken stew. Will absolutely come back for more of this again. Sometimes food trucks are overpriced and disappointing. Not tonight. This was a real treat. Super interesting texture - but 10/10 flavors!

Hey @usatoday.com - do you remember when you gaslit Vice President Harris and told her it wasn’t real?! Do you remember candidate Trump saying he’d “never heard of Project 2025” and now he’s working with the author to dismantle the federal government?

Watching the progress of the Global Sumud Flotilla trying to bring desperately needed aid to the people in Gaza. The world is watching. Israel keeps blocking aid - magnifying the already horrific conditions no human should be subjected to. May the winds be in their favor. www.bbc.com/news/article...

“Somehow we must keep hope alive - a hope that we can find a way to educate all, alleviate poverty, assuage anger, and live in harmony with the environment, with animals, and with each other.” - Dr. Jane Goodall Thank you Dr. Goodall. May your memory and work live on. Rest in peace.

Good morning to everyone except the Republicans (plus Senators Fetterman, Cortez, and King). I hope your pillows were hot on BOTH sides last night. Thanks for shutting down our country…again. Maybe this *third* time under dear leader will be the charm? 👍 Everyone else, I hope you have a lovely day.

I might need this for my pug. Or eventually a cat. I can’t stop chuckling looking at this

Sometimes these moments in the mountains don’t feel real.

She wasn’t wrong. We could have avoided so much of this current mess we’re living in here in America. Sending troops to “war-ravaged Portland”?? We’re sorry world…America is floundering and we could really use your help right about now.

HOW does the President of the goddam United States think this is totally normally and appropriate to share on his social media? We’re living in the Twilight Zone now. I swear he’s the most petulant, awful person and somehow some people still think he cares about them? Cares about our country? Wut?!

I know it’s up there, right? But like…it’s actually UP there, orbiting around us, while we orbit the sun, all of it orbiting the Milky Way galaxy, which is just wild. And instead of getting to just sit and ponder this awesomeness, I gotta worry about all the other <waves arms in front> this stuff.

I’m curious how airlines feel about this? It’s their reputation and our safety on the line. @deltaairways.bsky.social @americanair.bsky.social

Hey Utah. Thanks for a lovely show of a nature this weekend. Your politics (among other things) are backwards, goofy, and downright disgusting sometimes, but you sure are a beautiful sight to behold when fall hits. I wish you were this beautiful on the inside too.

Finally replaced my aging phone from the iPhone 12 to the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Woah. I’m looking forward to using the new camera. But so far my favorite moment was telling Siri “thank you” after a request, and having it reply, “You’re welcome”. Yes, I was raised to be polite, even to our AI overlords.

Growing up in Southern California in the late 80’s and early 90’s meant midnight weekend showings of TRHPS. I can’t sing. I can’t dance. But I will happily belt out every line and note from this movie, the callbacks, and most of the blocking.

Hi everyone! Koda here just reminding you all that you’re loved, you’re awesome, and after you give me belly rubs and ear scratches, please tell my dad that goodest boys get treats too. He ate all the salmon and just left me kibble. #IamSoMadAtDad

Happy Autumnal Equinox. Wishing you all a happy fall season…let’s make it a peaceful one.

A little Monday morning music for the soul. Hell yeah.

Art…we need the artists more than ever.

So...uh…the U.S. Department of Education has just announced it’s teaming up with: 1. Turning Point USA 2. Moms for Liberty 3. The Heritage Foundation To lead <checks notes> “CIVICS PROGRAMMING”. Dear Canada, any chance you’re taking political refugees? I’m done.✅ www.ed.gov/about/news/p...

Rest in peace Mr. Redford. And thank you.

Wait…our sitting Vice President took over Charlie Kirk’s show, declared leftist/liberal organizations the enemy of the state, all while espousing the “truth of Jesus Christ” while claiming there’s almost no right-wing political violence? Do have that right? Lolz. We’re just going full-Gilead now.

Happy Hackers Day 😬 (the movie came out 30 years ago today, September 15, 1995)

Are we talking physical pain? Or crippling emotional pain that comes from watching and reading one too many horror stories happening in the news? (Also, tbf…PBS News Hour is one of the best and only news shows out there I can still watch.)

A couple of photos from the Utah State Fair this weekend. Was a little nervous being in a big crowd there after week we’ve had here in Utah, but it turned out just fine and I had plenty of overpriced fun with my son.

I know I should be listening to something more calming and relaxing before I decide to retire for the evening…but it’s feeling a bit more like a Jello Biafra kinda night. I don’t really wanna sleep.

Fox News host Brian Kilmeade calling for rounding up, jailing, and "involuntary lethal injection" of the homeless/undesirable, live…on national television. “Just kill them,” he says. But we shouldn’t compare them to Nazis. That would be uncalled for. 😳 www.mediamatters.org/fox-friends/...

Some of the Evergreen High School students are the children of parents who went to and survived Columbine in 1999. How is it that surviving a mass shooting at school becoming an American tradition?

“It is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succour of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may have clean earth to till. What weather they shall have is not ours to rule.” -Tolkien

Saw this guy next to me at a red light tonight. That’s a bold branding choice. But the license plate? Is it “dicey”? Or does he have a vendetta against a confidential informant who once ratted him out, “Die, C.I.”? I’m confused.

So like…we’re not witnessing the start of WWIII tonight, right? A couple of Russian drones shot down over Polish airspace - and a couple of Russian cruise missiles crossing into Poland? This is just a a big *oops, our bad* by Russia, right? I can go to sleep tonight without worrying too much, yeah?

Truth. Gimme any potato in butter and fried in duck fat. Or scalloped. Mashed with roasted garlic works too. Even a proper baked potato is passable. Just make sure I have some kind of good tater with my steak.

The lighting for this part of the Apple Event talking about the new #iPhoneAir is wild looking. Almost looks like CGI. Kinda gorgeous.

All of us, pretty much every day since January 20, 2025. I’m gettin’ too old for this shit.

After Sunday dinner last night, my son and I headed to my favorite local overlook and photographed the full moon again. We had just a few clouds roll in which made for some wild atmospheric effects. I do declare, spooky season is officially upon us!

I’m feeling a little nostalgic for when Siri used to have a sense of humor, and was way more interactive and fun. Here’s her response when I asked her to give me a hint about Apple’s Keynote which would take place the next day. And yes, her answer is real, and still makes me laugh.

This might be one of the funniest and most random bumper stickers I’ve ever seen 😆😂🤣
