That is some serious bullshit. And reason number 117,981 to never go through Kansas again.

Why on gods green earth would there be cameras in a rural area?

At a motorcycle rally, surrounded by “nice guys”, as the guys got deep into the alcohol my intuition kicked into high gear. I faded into the background and went to my tent unnoticed only to be awakened a couple of hours later by creepy sing song voices calling out saying “where arrrrre you”.

Absolutely, consequences that will in no way compensate her for her trauma, but hugely important nonetheless.

Wow, just beautiful! I love my very blue state of Illinois but we don’t have that kind of natural beauty.

You look lovely and peaceful. 🥰

It’s been a long time coming and then, temperature wise, it happened literally overnight here. Two days ago I was in a tank top and shorts, today I’m in sweats and we put the flannel sheets on! 🍂🍁

I’ll do that, I hold out hope that sometime in the future our country will be decent again.

I haven’t been to California in decades, I’d love to return but right now just don’t want to travel (I look like a big scary dyke and don’t feel like fighting to use a restroom across the country).

Good friend of mine was a senior programmer, she started writing code back in 1980, learned a bunch of different languages and from what I understand was very good. Her boss said “we may have to call you back sometime”, she just laughed at him.

You make me exceptionally glad I retired before AI hit the scene, I’d be lost trying to hire someone nowadays… that and I think most would tank the in person interview.

Another brilliantly sunny hot day, is it wrong that it makes melancholy? I long for cooler darker days that signal the impending winter.

Thank you, Canada. And I’m so sorry for the things our idiotic government is doing now.

Mickie @mickiebee.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

Yes, everything in my world needs to be as soft, quiet, comfortable, and cozy as I can make it. The rest of the world is too loud, bright, and rude.

Became a professional firefighter in 1983 when there were less than 100 women in the world doing it.

I adore Fall but I’m also very frightened by scary movies, so it’s a mixed bag for me until Halloween is over, I change channels at lightning speed to avoid landing on something scary. 🫣🎃👻😬

Emmanuelle Moureaux's installation Slices of Time, 2020. Composed of 100 layers of numbers in 100 shades of rainbow colours and 20 layers of numbers in white, the installation visualizes the next 100 years to come (2020 to 2119) #WomensArt

So beautiful! I’d love to walk that path.

Same, shitty assholes seem to live forever while the truly amazing people go too soon.

So very sorry for your loss.

That first sip of coffee after a restless night, oh yeah. ☕️

Just got done at the gym, it’s move in week at the university where my gym is located. It was adorable watching all the little freshman walk around in groups like ducklings, marveling at the great big gym and, I’m guessing, at their first moments of freedom. ❤️

That is excellent, it will take a few rereads to fully grasp, thanks for sharing.

Wealthy weirdo, I’d love to be able to give money away by the handful to women in need.

Local media pic of the latest tornado filled storm rolling in last night, this is getting exhausting.

A soybean field in Illinois with a long line of dark stomped clouds rolling over it.

My dad had one of those, a little older I think. It was his work truck, I loved driving it.

I can smell my childhood in this picture.

Absolutely, we decided back in about 2010 to live below our means and declutter our house, with a goal of eventually downsizing back into a nice apartment. That choice has allowed us to live debt free, and live quietly and happily since 2013.

I can normally make a good guess but this one has me stumped… what am I looking at?

Mickie @mickiebee.bsky.social · 03/07/2026

We’ve had weirdly chilly temps until the last week, now we firmly reside in hell.

Mickie @mickiebee.bsky.social · 28/06/2026

Yay! We’ve had weirdly cool days here, combined with a record number of tornadoes, and starting tomorrow we’ll have heat indices in the 100° to 110° range. 🥵 I can’t wait for fall and winter.

Mickie @mickiebee.bsky.social · 30/05/2026

I bet your piss looks better.

Loads of good juju headed your way. ❤️

Mickie @mickiebee.bsky.social · 28/05/2026

Dude, what the actual fuck!?!? I notice you weren’t posting on fb so I sent you a message, anything I can do from afar?

Our grass is so green this year! And that little bird and its mate have a nest in the upper part of our porch roofline. 💕

Settling in for a quiet evening of reading. I do miss winter on these evenings, the peace of an early dusk, the quiet that seemed to settle on as the day waned.

I switched to that after my cataract surgery a few y ago , very restful for the eyes… and for me, the mind, it’s like a slice of nighttime.

Glad you followed your instincts, that individuals behavior was suspect and they made no effort to clarify. Better to have peace than deal with some else’s odd online drama.
