RIP to Rob Base.

I would love to know why people are willing to go along with the idea that it's fine for a president to keep his tax returns secret because it might destroy him if they're revealed.

I seem to have a ton of Pine Siskins in the yard right now. This one came to say hello about 5 feet away from me. #pinesiskin #birds #birding #birdsofnh

Just insane amounts of corruption

A bobcat in our driveway early this morning.

We have a couple of really awesome dogs at our shelter right now who have been here longer than they should be. This is Bella Rose, a 3 year old Husky/Shepherd mix. She's super sweet and a good girl. www.petplace.com/pet-adoption...

First Rose-Breasted Grosbeak sighting this year. #birds #birding #grosbeak

An Indigo Bunting at the feeder today. #birds #birding #indigobunting

Oh, a little earthquake.

Doordash was involved in that stunt with Trump and touted it on their socials. Stop using them.

Literally had Challenger flashbacks during that launch. Fingers crossed for a wholly successful mission. Exciting to watch.

Sincerely thought this was an article by The Onion.

So hold up. Homeland Security knows they crossed the border and knows where they are but they haven't done anything to get them out of the country because they've been too busy rounding up innocent immigrants and killing American citizens? Make it make sense!

This is my district. Apparently the Republican won this seat in 2024 by 26 points.

When I first joined Bluesky, there was a cool feature where there was a little plus symbol on someone's profile pic to follow them. It was also a way to know whether you were following someone already. That was such a nifty feature. Why did they get rid of it?

Why doesn't Microsoft Word, or any of their programs for that matter, have autocorrect for misspelled words? It's smart enough to highlight the word, so why can't it just autocorrect it, too, like on our phones?

Welp, the NYT games app is officially broken unless they get to show ads. I've been using it fine for months with AdGuard until today. Not paying for it and not unblocking ads.

You are somebody.

I met Jesse Jackson once while I was an associate producer for a syndicated talk radio show called Beyond the Beltway w/ Bruce DuMont. He was an in-studio guest. Super nice guy.

Today is the first day of the Great Backyard Bird Count, where you at an individual can contribute to science. www.birdcount.org

There is just no bottom to the pit that is Donald Trump.

ICE OUT protest in Concord, NH today.

Anyone else have a significant other who just skips the movies and shows already in the watchlist and spends way too much time trying to find something else to watch? Just me?

I heard the news of another murder by ICE earlier today but didn't have time to follow it until just now. I'm sick to my stomach.

Yep. I'm not voting for some milquetoast politician who won't do anything to hold the current regime accountable. Every last one of them.

I've noticed more and more small businesses in my area are charging an additional 3-4% to cover credit card fees. How exactly are they reporting this when it comes tax time? I know those fees are 100% tax deductible normally. Are they recouping the fees AND getting the tax deduction?

Paging my congressional representatives! @hassan.senate.gov @shaheen.senate.gov @chrispappasnh.bsky.social Why are you silent on absolutely everything this administration is doing? You. Are. Complicit.

A pair of blue jays at the feeder today.

Today is Ridley's 9th adoption day. We don't know his birthday, so we celebrate that today, as well. He was supposedly around 5 years old when we adopted him, which makes him around 14 now.

Hempstead, NY

Holy crap! I was just able to cancel my Spectrum service in under 30 minutes. That has to be a record. What do I win?

I was thinking of moving this trail cam because we haven't seen anything on it except some squirrels. Then, yesterday morning this bear gave us a little show.

Just a reminder, many people who receive SNAP also have pets and often have to decide between caring for their pets and putting food on the table for their families. Many shelters have programs to help people be able to keep their pets in difficult times instead of surrendering them to the shelter.

We had a beautiful coyote pass by outside our fence last night. It's been a couple years since we've seen one on the cameras.

My unsubsidized ACA plan is going up 50%, from approximately $1200 to $1800. Estimated out of pocket, including premiums, is $36k for the year. Insanity.

The new SS officer uniforms were just unveiled.

We had an appointment down on the Seacoast today and stopped at one of those chain steakhouses on the way home. I had a filet and I thought there should be a sauce and add-on selection for steaks. A nice peppercorn sauce or red wine reduction would have been nice. Sauteed shrooms/onions, too.

The birds all disappeared for about a month but they're back and I'm excited. A blue jay visited the feeder today.

Question: Do you peck each letter on your phone keyboard or do you swipe/glide from letter to letter? I swipe and cannot go back to pecking.

Some of my favorite signs from the No Kings protest in Portsmouth, NH today.

I literally had no plans to attend a protest this Saturday but the Republicans are making it out to me so fun and sexy that I'm going to attend the one in Portsmouth.

💯

This is Manolo. His family invited strangers to spend time with him on his last day. His mom said, "This was such a perfect way to celebrate the life of a dog who truly loved spending time with people and their dogs. Run free and fast forever, Manolo. I will never stop missing you." 14/10 for all

My favorite part of the day. Happens every evening..

What a whiny little bitch.

I'm really not looking forward to the rapture coming tomorrow. All the actual good in the world will disappear and us heathens will be left with MAGA.

How long before the regime pulls Social Security benefits from anyone who is critical of it?

Chipmunk killer. We named him Hunter and that is the perfect name for him.
