Unfortunately this is where my troubles started.

I have questions about how Spotify determines your “listening age” (I’m 68). Doesn’t everyone still listen to music they first heard when they were 7 years old? Why do they think I discovered The Beatles at age 19?

I prefer the days when "take no prisoners" was an idiom, not a Pentagon policy.

A fun but ankle-wrenching hike on wet, rocky trails in a newly-discovered section of Freetown State Forest🥾Kept company by the bright blue sky and brilliant sunshine💙☀️ Then off to New Bedford for pastéis de nata at the Portuguese bakery!😋

NO IT HASN'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

What he said: 💯 🎯

Just cuz!

Who else is in the pie for breakfast bunch?

Done with the chocolates for the day, now time to pack some orders before running out to ship them before the last collection!

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107. 12 days of work in 107 days. With full pay and benefits. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

A cold but lovely long weekend in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The trail straight up South Moat Mountain was grueling (the photos don’t show the pain😬) but the white water and the color were rewarding.

Beatles Little Golden Book at Walmart, what a wonderful thing! (They also have Taylor Swift, of course).

We crossed the 300,000 threshold here on Bluesky. I salute you for working to build our community. I told you we would vote and we are voting right now. I told you we MUST back Democrats and we are winning election after election. I hope I earned you joining us and building a better country.

Karoline Leavitt officially announced the "Launch of a large-scale investigation to find the people behind 'No Kings.'" I've saved her some time.

Pumpkin beer, yea or nay?

Her message (especially at the end) is so very, very important! 💕💕💕 #JaneGoodall #DrJaneGoodall #Inspiration #Hope

Our Walmart now has “Manager Special” sales. I’d like to see a little more than 9 cents off chili! Grocery prices are crazy.

Those would be calling me from the freezer.

The possibilities are expanding and darkening at the same time. #br

A warm, sunny, and muggy day—like summer just popped back in for a visit. Great to get out and stretch the legs a bit at Bell’s Neck in Harwich. Always a favorite with all the birdies and their songs🎶🦢🦆🐦‍⬛🪿 The fall color is starting up with the poison ivy especially vibrant❤️🍁🍂

Thank you for coming to my Teddy talk.

I’m old enough to remember, too.

Been enjoying this view for a week. A break from the internet was nice.🛳️🏝️🍹🎵

RFK Jr is a horrific combination of arrogance and ignorance.

Hella holidays coming.🤯

"To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country – I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story." Governor JB Pritzker

It happened again

Parts of the Constitution were erased from the Library of Congress website, including the section featuring the foreign emoluments clause. The removal was blamed on a "coding error." Here's a reminder of what the clause says, just in case Congress ever decides to enforce it...

🩸🩸🩸 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x POS convicted felon & adjudicated rapist & pedophile Trump did 🩸🩸🩸

Let that sink in for a sec.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

I love this attitude. 😍

Cognitive decline, or does he lie so much he can’t keep it straight? Trump in 2025: “He’s a terrible Fed chair. I was surprised he was appointed.” Trump in 2017: “It is my pleasure and my honor to announce my nomination of Jerome Powell to be the next chairman of the Federal Reserve.”

If you don't like hummingbirds, tune me out for the next week or so! I was lucky to be tipped off on the location of a ruby-throated hummingbird nest. I will be posting a series of shots taken over about two and half weeks, starting with this one of momma sitting in her nest on June 16th #birds

😬

Saw this guy wandering in the driveway and popped him into the garden. He was about the size of half a cantaloupe and cute!🐢

As should we all! Hopefully you don’t need a reminder taped to your mirror to know that this is the right thing to do. But if somehow your moral compass is tempted to go astray, or is pressured to do so, by all means post a reminder!

I’m not sure what they have planned for Thanksgiving, but I hope it doesn’t involve fresh produce.
