From the growing rightwing belief that UK and US should not have entered the war to the kinda crazy increase in outright holocaust denial--there are some insane numbers--to the too-broad enthusiasm for bring-it-on let's-have-a-war-cuz-we'll-win, as applied anywhere.

I’ve had a stressful couple of weeks dealing with some elder care issues with my dad. So I took some time for myself yesterday and enjoyed the lovely afternoon. I picked some apples at a local orchard, then went to a local lake and spent a quiet hour on the lakeshore.

A lakeshore scene with a clear blue sky overhead, the lake is calm and blue, in the middle ground. A tree losing its leaves is on the left side framing the view, while the grass in the foreground is bright green in the sun and a picnic table sits on it near the edge of the lake,

Omigod, this is the most heartwarming story possible! Backpack (bear 89) is the son of the 2019 winner of Fat Bear Week, Holly (bear 435). In 2007, he injured his foot & a practice of riding on momma's Holly's back had a new meaning: he was mobility-restricted while it healed. So Holly moved him.

From DISCVR blog's Facebook page, a momma bear & a yearling cub on her back in the shallow water. I think the background has been swapped out, and I can't rule out some AI use there? God, Facebook has become the social media for AI slop : (

The title of the article, which I link below, is "How Bear 89 earned the name Backpack"

People will do everything in their power to duck jury duty then come up with very stern opinions about how a jury should do its job. Go participate in justice unless health, childcare, or desperate poverty is stopping you. It's important and often doesn't last long.
