Blowing a whistle does not ruin a reputation. He already chose to ruin his reputation by doing evil in the first place. The rest is natural fallout. Tell the truth.

Trump lied about sending us "DOGE checks," and lied about sending us tariff dividend checks, but hey, maybe THIS time he's telling the truth about "Republican midterm checks"? Voice-over Narrator: "Noone, in fact, would get ANY such checks." 🤷

Sometimes packages get damaged, and sometimes it's NOT the carrier's fault. Today while picking up at the "customer shipping location" I watched someone kick their own boxes through the parking lot before carrying them into the store to be shipped. 😳

When my brother @kaijustew.bsky.social and I were kids we sang "The Song That Never Ends" from the TV show 'Lambchop' to annoy our mom in the car; well Mom just told me that my 5yo boy has started doing the same thing as well. Stew has thus called it "a generational curse." 🤣

I got to see the flag from my ancestor's Civil War regiment, and EVEN GOT TO HELP CARRY IT from the storage racks to the display rack! He was in the 6th PA Heavy Artillery as part of the Washington DC garrison and also guarded railroads and bridges nearby. The PA flag preservation facility is great!

Andy, Ben, and I had a boys' day out! We saw the city's holiday parade and had lunch at Primanti's afterwards. Andy was a real trooper, walking round-trip about 2.2 miles and sharing parade-thrown candy with other kids around us who hadn't gotten to pick up as much!

In the first few episodes of the new James A. Garfield miniseries, Black Grand Army members are getting more screen time than they ever have in cinema, let alone any Grand Army veterans. In exploring history, Death by Lightning is *making* history.

I've heard some folks refer to this song as "The country anthem to 'No Kings,'" and I'd say that's spot-on. I stumbled upon it by accident and now it's been stuck in my head for a couple of days. I like both the chipper tune and the biting, "screw the Man" lyrics. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHMk...

Andy was my big helper taking Jane to the vet. He even tried to comfort her in the car by singing "Old McDonald." 💖 As soon as Dr Kevin came in the room and saw Andy's shirt, he asked if Andy had ever heard of the TV show "Dinosaur Train." I was like, "Buddy, Dr Kevin knows your favorite show!" 🤣

5yo Andy spotted the display of caramel apples at the grocery store & asked to try them, & since I love them myself I relented. Andy: "I didn't know it tasted THIS good!" Me: "Caramel apples are a nice fall treat, aren't they?" Andy: "The BEST fall treat, I should say!" 🤣

I have an insatiably curious cat who won't stop pulling out & playing with the basement floor drain lid, even knocking off anything we put over it. So I preheated it with a heat gun and hot glued it in place. As Red Green says, "If the women don't find you handsome, they'll at least find you handy!"
Recently glued floor drain lid, with heat gun and glue gun.
