The office of the US president used to be dignified. Not now. Not at all

Neighbors driving around today were really impressed with the No Kings marches here and in PDX. As to what the US president has posted online today, it would be good to share it with everyone around the world. Show what he truly is. No pretending that he is a decent mature person. Because he isn't

It's sad that people are finding it funny when an older person falls down. People die from falls and the older a person is the more likely they will be injured or die. Not a Kiss fan but rest in peace Ace Frehley

Saw that announcement and I'm glad Windows 11 won't work on my pc. Slowly transitioning off of Chrome too.

How about a creepy scary horror short with heart for Halloween? "La Noria" by animator Carlos Baena of Pixar and ILM. It's really good ハロウィンにぴったりの、心温まる不気味で怖いホラー短編はいかがでしょうか？ピクサーとILMのアニメーター、カルロス・バエナによる「ラ・ノリア」。とても素晴らしい作品です。字幕は必要ありません。 www.youtube.com/watch?v=omsg...

It's getting better. They are bringing together the separate health coalitions into one alliance for health science and more. This is good for us. I hope they will include food safety in this because that was a very important function of the FDA.

Sometimes YouTube offers very satisfying videos. These are the times I appreciate social media. Like 🎻NICCOLO🎻 YouTubeがすごく満足できる動画を提案してくるときがある。こういうときこそソーシャルメディアのありがたみを感じる。いいね🎻NICCOLO🎻 www.youtube.com/watch?v=O515...

A show I watched recently? "The Paradise". Enjoyed the clever female lead and ensemble acting. The real star was the store. Really gorgeous! 最近のショーですか?「ザ・パラダイス」。賢い女性主演とアンサンブルの演技が素晴らしかった。真のスターはあのお店だった。本当にゴージャス！

This black gown with a swoop of gold lace at the hem is actually a nightgown, but honestly it seems to me a perfect night on the town kind of dress and far too glamorous to be kept indoors. Late #1930s @ngvmelbourne.bsky.social #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

135% tariff on anything made in China? That includes items from other countries since tariffs are based on where made, not where sold. 中国製のものすべてに135%の関税がかかる？関税は販売場所ではなく製造場所に基づいているため、他国から発送された品物も含まれます。

TULIP ROSEがまだ営業していることを知って嬉しいです！ しかも池袋でまだ売ってるんですね！ 久しぶりに小さなお花を楽しみました。誕生日プレゼントにもあげました。特別で可愛いと思ったので。

It's not the job of people who live in Portland to have to prove every day that the US president is lying about Portland. They have been doing that, along with sharing the links to live cameras in the city.

Don't use UPS for shipping. Their long time problems are expanding and they may be destroying packages or storing them somewhere, thus delaying for extended periods of time.

Yamamoto-san has some very cool male models for his shows, like Norman Reedus and Matsushige Yutaka. Which makes this extra something.

So now supposedly Portland doesn't have stores any more? Curious then how I just bought a Fellows Mighty Small Carafe from the Coava Coffee Roasters shop in Portland to replace the one that cracked today.

The cliff notes version is go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update. If your pc is meets the prerequisites there will be a link to enroll in Extended Security Updates. It's free for most non-commercial Microsoft pcs

For anyone who has a pc that can't run Windows 11 but don't plan on buying one that does, they have extended security updates for one year if you enroll in it. This page has instructions how to do it. It's free. www.microsoft.com/en-gb/window...

Looking at Mt Hood and a little bit of Portland through the smoke from all the fires today... #PortlandWarZone 今日、ポートランドの火災の煙を通してマウントフッドとポートランドの一部を眺めています… （火事は発生していません）

I was looking up Portland, Oregon, 911 fire call maps last night. Nice to see someone has put it all together on one site. For anyone who wants a real time check, here's live cameras and that map. isportlandburning.com#cameras

Thinking of visiting the war zone today. Wish me luck. #portland

Before animation historians jump down my throat, yes, there were Japanese animated features before this, but Astro Boy was the first full length TV series. Tezuka described it thusly:「これは、アニメーションじゃないんです。テレビアニメなんです。アニメなんです」"This isn't animation. I call it 'anime.'" And a new word was born.

62 years ago this month: Osamu Tezuka inks a deal with NBC for the broadcast of "Astro Boy," giving the world its first taste of anime:

おはようございます😊 雲が多い空模様で、午後からは天気が崩れる所もあるそうです。 週間の天気予報を見ると、台風22号の予想進路図を見ると週末に掛けて、縦断するみたいなので、台風情報は要チェックですね🌀 今週も始まりますが、今週も無理をしないでマイペースでお過ごし下さいね😊

Autumn warmth.

Some dates to remember about the Temporary Restraining Order ruling against deploying National Guard troops in Oregon. 10/17 the judge will determine if the TRO needs to be extended. 10/29 the judge will hold a trial on the merits of the lawsuits.

今日も一日お疲れ様でした✨ ゆっくり休んで下さいね☺️ 優しい秋桜✨🍀

This is extremely important because the judge has found that there is no valid reason to send military (National Guard) into Portland, Oregon. That it can't be done just because the US president orders it. That his reasons for doing it aren't factual.
