FOTUS is demoing the White House. a) There's no permit on record. This is a National Historic Place with requirements for modifications. b) He said this ballroom would be close to but not connected to the White House. He lied. c) The government's shutdown & he just started a $250 MILL project.

The significance of the number 33 varies by context, appearing in religion as a number associated with spiritual fulfillment and divine promises. In numerology, 33 is a "Master Number" of compassion & altruism. The number 33 also represents divine connection, healing, & a call to service. Also this

I've been reading a lot about the Paradox of Tolerance-"The paradox of tolerance suggests that if a society extends tolerance to those who are intolerant, it risks enabling the eventual dominance of intolerance; thereby undermining the very principle of tolerance." 1/2

It's not often that you personally know someone who merits a NYT obituary. AK Best was one of a kind. Loved chatting with him. My husband won some of his flies in an auction. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/s...

The head of Homeland Security did not know what Habeas Corpus meant. This is the legal principle that separates us from countries where dictators just make people disappear. It predates the Magna Carta,

My devout STL Cards fan just said over breakfast "ok, so the Pope is a White Sox fan. Can you imagine it's he was a Cubs fan? How insufferable would that be?" (Full disclosure, I come from Chicago in Cubbies fandom)

Never heard of this Pope until today, but the fact that Laura Loomer called him a Marxist makes me want to go back to my Catholic ancestry. And he's from Chicago, where I grew up!

My daughter just finished a peds rotation in med school. I was really interested in what her doc said to people who were vaccine hesitant. He was able to gently change minds w/o being aggressive about it. One thing was to say the hidden advantage of vaccines is that we don't worry about fevers much.

Maybe it's me, but I sure would like to see Telsa's board recognize that the CEO is toxic to the brand and remove him. But TBH, I think he's destroyed the brand with the very people who used to buy Telsas and is unlikely to convince MAGA to buy. It's a dumpster fire of his own doing.

After trying to figure out what I could do in this day and age to be a positive force, I've joined the tech team of the League of Women Voters of Boulder County. The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan organization working to protect and expand voting rights. Uses my tech skills for the good.

Glowing endorsement of FOTUS' economic policies. We had the strongest economy in the world and he's driving us to a recession and JP Morgan knows it.

The market is down, the dollar is down, banks are forecasting recession, we're in a full-blown trade war with the world. Countdown to FOTUS announcing he's meeting with all of these countries to make deals, terrific deals so he can remove the tariffs and call it a win in 3...2...1...

Day 2 and my 82 year old mother's savings are down another 7%. She hates the FOTUS with a burning passion already but now even more. The only good side is seeing how badly Elon, Bezos, Ellison and Zuck have been hit. Hope they love how this is working out for them.

My 82 year old mother lost 8% of her savings today. While people on her side of the family do live long lives, she's not really got the runway to not care how long it takes for the market to recover. Remember when FOTUS used to brag on your 401k?

Both of my grandmothers were in the DAR (until my Dad's Mother quit and told him she agreed it was a lot of horseshit when they refused to let Marion Anderson sing). That means on both sides, I have family I can trace back to the American Revolution. 1/2

So here's a thing I'm not sure to think is good or bad. It's clear that FOTUS wasn't briefed or involved in the decision to launch air strikes. You remember the famous Situation Room photo with Obama, Hillary, Biden watching the strike on Bin Laden? Now it's a group chat and FOTUS WASN'T INVOLVED.

My husband just pointed out the NSA chief Mike Waltz' explanation about how he added Jeffrey Goldberg's phone number to an illegal Signal chat (it got "sucked in") was like listening to me do tech support with my mom. "I don't know how I reset my password, it just changed itself."🙄

Back in grad school, pre-internet,someone was cleaning up his files. He was tired of doing the del file.file one at a time so he hit del *.* and watched the list of every file being deleted. But he didn't reveal war plans in a group chat to a reporter, so that must make him feel good today.

All the Denver people saying last night's winds were crazy and scary makes me realize that most of the time, the winds in Boulder die down before they get to you. Last night was only breezy in Boulder, not shake the house winds. #cowx

Good morning! It's extremely windy (84 mph clocked at NCAR) and warm (72 high) so fire danger is high. Most fires in this stuff area human caused, so don't be stupid, Colorado! Desi and Boo are keeping an eye on conditions. #dogs

As a young kid, I got an ineffective measles shot and then got the measles. I was sick for more a week, I had sores that went down my throat and a super high fever. I had to sleep all day with the shades drawn because I was light-sensitive. 1/2

Anyone else continue to be glad they canceled @washingtonpost.com ? I missed it initially, but the more Bezos sucks up to FOTUS, the more I'm glad I stopped. I picked up a subscription to the @theguardian.com and I start on the UK edition for my mental health daily.

This winter's deep snows *not* being in Boulder is just odd. South Denver and suburbs getting 3X the snow we get is not what I expect and I have to admit, I'm not sure what to think about it... #COwx
