Years ago, people cut articles out of newspapers and kept them in a scrapbook, to be able to document the events of the day. This is my electronic scrapbook. I don't read responses to what I save. I don't chat. All this is, is a scrapbook.

Europe set for another year of high gas prices as reserves hit lows
European households and industries face at least another year of high gas prices, even if the Iran war is resolved and winter proves mild, as the continent will need ​to restock gas storage reserves depleted to record lows.

The stars over Big Bend belong to all Texans, not the Ultra Wealthy. Now data center development in West Texas is raising new concerns about protecting our dark skies, including those surrounding McDonald Observatory. We need to protect our natural treasures before they’re lost to corporate greed.

Russia and Ukraine don't know what the hell Trump is talking about. Political leadership in Moscow and in Kyiv deny having agreed to an energy ceasefire, as Trump claims. Trump is delusional and a liar. He is trying to manipulate the U.S. public, assuming they are all idiots.

Trump just straight up lied about a Russia-Ukraine ceasefire in order to manipulate oil markets, which in previous years would be a presidency ending scandal but in 2026 is simply known as Sunday.

Speaking of live-streaming executions… There were white people in America, particularly from the 1880s through the 1930s, who enjoyed watching Black people being lynched. They brought their families, took photos & collected pieces of the victims’ clothing as souvenirs. [1935 — Fort Lauderdale]

Trump and Rubio weigh firing Kimberly Guilfoyle after reports of improper conduct
Senior official says president and US secretary of state are ‘extremely pissed off’ by conduct of US envoy to Greece Donald Trump and Marco Rubio, the secretary of state, are considering firing US ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle after a series of reports alleging she has engaged in improper and possibly illegal conduct before and during her tenure in Athens. A senior US official said Sunday that Trump and Rubio are “extremely pissed off” by Guilfoyle’s reported conduct and would likely decide on what action to take this week after Monday’s federal holiday.

Hey California, VOTE EARLY to avoid lines, confrontations, germs, traffic, ICE, etc. But ALSO, ballots received and processed before Election Day are included in Election Night results. The more ballots in early, the fewer left to count afterward—and the less room for claims of rigging or fraud.

At this point, there is no ambiguity about what just happened: Trump has stabbed the Ukrainian nation in the back in exchange for a shipment of diesel that would be a roughly 17 hour supply for the US market. It shows how easily Trump is manipulated by Putin, Xi and other dangerous dictators.
