Just remembered it from a while back. Sounded kinda complex but now more germane given the chat about whatever kind of intelligence they call it today lol

I remember Florida State Troopers transporting ballots to counting centers. I still think the promotion lists afterwards would make interesting reading...

As a kid, I thought adults had everything figured out. Now I get excited when the store has my favorite bread, I have no idea what I’m doing half the time, and I’m pretty sure everyone else is winging it too. Here’s some poems. 💙💙💙 #poetry #blueskypoets #writingcommunity #BlueSkyPoetry #SkyPoet

A humorous, affectionate poem about how growing older changes our definition of happiness, until something as ordinary as buying a good kitchen sponge becomes a small shared joy.
The Good Sponge
When I was young,
I dreamed of having money,
freedom,
and a house of my own.
Yesterday,
I bought a new kitchen sponge.
I showed it to my wife.
She agreed
it was a good sponge.
I don't know
when this became happiness,
but I think
we're doing okay.

A playful poem about the endless responsibilities of adulthood, particularly the exhausting realization that deciding what to make for dinner is a problem that returns every single day.
Dinner Again
Nobody warned me
that adulthood meant
deciding what to eat
every single day
for the rest
of my natural life.
I made dinner yesterday.
Apparently,
that doesn't count
for today.
At this point,
I'd welcome
a little jury duty.

A reflective poem about reaching the age your father was when you believed he knew everything, and realizing that his confidence may have concealed the same uncertainty and fear you experience as an adult.
The Age My Father Was
I reached the age
my father was
when I thought
he knew everything.
I remember asking him
what we should do
when something went wrong.
He always had an answer.
Now I wonder
how many times
he was just as frightened
as I am,
and answered anyway.

A warm, relatable poem about never quite feeling like a proper adult, despite managing everyday responsibilities. It suggests that growing up may simply mean caring for others and doing your best without knowing all the answers.
No Instructions Included
I thought someday
I'd wake up
and feel like an adult.
Instead,
I lose my keys,
forget why I entered rooms,
and occasionally eat cereal
over the kitchen sink.
But the bills get paid.
The dog gets fed.
Someone I love
knows they are loved.
Maybe growing up
isn't knowing what you're doing.
Maybe it's doing your best
without the instructions

Our Social Security system is fully affordable. If we make billionaires pay in at the same rate as the rest of us, we can afford to protect and expand benefits for current and future generations.

Oh it will hang for at least a week, maybe longer to cool, then his mom and dad will start cutting. His mom likes canning moose meat as well as freezing it. He's got a Grandma upriver who will get a good piece of it, and relatives in the village to send to as well as Elders here in Bethel.

Since it's his first catch a lot of it will be given away. But normally one that size can provide a good part of winters meat for a family.

Been thinking lately (yes, that was that funny noise you heard...) about the stealing of #NationalArchives collections from Anchorage, Seattle and other places and I am terrified by the prospect of these priceless collections being fed into the maw of AI LLM's.
