USAF retired. Geeky gardener. I love to travel and read. Of course I love my family to pieces, but my schnauzer has a special place in my heart.

The guy occupying the Oval Office forgot that his administration stopped replenishing the SPR in early 2025.

Things your unhoused neighbors can use this summer, aside from the obvious: - candy (I get asks for this more than almost anything) - sunscreen (high SPF pls!) - lip balm (bonus for SPF) - electrolyte packets for water - cash - gift cards for fast food and/or accessible grocery stores 1/

I need to do this. I can’t stand the thought of turning on the spigot of partisan mailers, but living in a deep red state as a non-party affiliated voter is an exercise in futility.

Hail the Deep State – Are political leaders a match for the institutions?
Too many people running for office are not really trying to govern a vast, complicated republic. They are trying to build a brand

See the issue is that Trump ran on releasing on the Epstein files, and Bondi said she had them sitting on her desk ready to go, and then Elon Musk tweeted that Trump was in them and they were suddenly deemed a hoax and Ghislaine was moved to a spa prison, so you can understand the fresh intrigue

One of the most remarkable things of the last 9 months is how many Americans seem to believe the President is all powerful and Congress has no say. Actually Congress has been ineffective by choice. It has immense power if it had the courage to use it.

Experts estimate the rebranding of DoD will cost billions. This is in addition to renaming bases. We're basically applying an expensive Instagram filter to the DoD after we slashed budgets. The Rose Garden Club looks fancy, but it's not going to upgrade the barracks or take care of the veterans.

Trump has purchased at least $103 million worth of corporate and municipal bonds since he took office again, according to new filings from the Office of Government Ethics.   Trump made about 690 purchases from Jan. 21 through Aug. 1.   The active trading by a president of the U.S. is unprecedented.

The purchases could let the president make money off companies and local entities that could be affected by his agenda.

This is what a rigged economy looks like: In the 1970s, CEOs made 27 times more than the average worker. In the 1980s, CEOs made 48 times more than the average worker. This decade, CEOs are making 354 times more than the average worker. That has got to change.

From “Parable of the Talents” by Octavia Butler #skybrary #skybrarians #booksky
A screenshot of a poem. The poem reads:
Choose your leaders
with wisdom and forethought.
To be led by a coward
is to be controlled
by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool
is to be led
by the opportunists who control the fool.
To be led by a thief
is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen.
To be led by a liar
is to ask to be told lies.
To be led by a tyrant
is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.
