Painted lady butterfly on frost aster. One of our last warm October days. Frost is coming soon. #Butterflies #Pollinators #NativePlants

The closeup scene shows tiny, daisy-like flowers (frost aster) clustered along the green stems along with some dry, brown stems, and a fallen red chokecherry tree leaf. A medium sized butterfly with black wingscovered in orange and white speckles is visiting the aster flowers.

I wish my parents had read to me. I only had minimal reading ability when I started kindergarten, but I soon made up for the lost time. I became a huge bookworm, devouring one book after another.

They sure changed their tune when they realized they could ride 47's coattails to riches and glory. I wish all of his sycophants could be made to pay for their crime against humanity. I hope I live to see our version of the Nuremberg trials.

I was surprised that the people she highlighted on her show seemed to *let it all hang out* once they got their own show. I didn't spend the time to make the connection that Oprah had put them into the spotlight, until she attended the Bezos wedding in Venice, then the scales fell from my eyes.

Here's the first of two little things I've made to celebrate 60 years of a television show that became more television shows (plus some movies) and sometimes dropped some nuggets of actual wisdom. Happy #StarTrekDay to all who celebrate. 🖖

A recreation of a classic poster that reads:

All I need to know about life I learned from Star Trek

Below that is an illustration of the original series Enterprise. And below that is a justified list of quotes and aphorisms divided by delta bullet points. The list reads:

• Seek out new life and new civilizations
• Logic is the beginning of wisdom, not the end
• There’s no such thing as a Vulcan death grip
• Even in fear, you can still step forward
• It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life
• Never trust a planet that looks exactly like Earth
• It’s a long road
• There are four lights!
• The first duty is to the truth
• Go fast!
• When you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains must be the truth
• We are all explorers
• It’s difficult to work in groups when you're omnipotent
• Sometimes, hope is a choice
• Fortune favors the bold
• It’s easy to be a saint in paradise
• Don't believe in no-win scenarios
• We all deserve to belong somewhere
• Keep your shirt tucked in, go down with the ship, and never abandon a member of your crew
• Boldly go where no one has gone before!

First I tried it in Google Maps, but had to be clever about it. I had to pick a location on the edge of the lake, not the lake itself. Then I went to Google Search. It worked easily, as described in the meme. Just tap the three dots next to the erroneous lake name and leave feedback.

You know, I think it should read "visibly disabled." It is the outward appearance of any weakness or vulnerability that repels him, being a projection of his own fears. 47 is *invisibly* disabled, only because of all the support he has, being a wealthy white man with an entourage of eager adherents.

Quiltrageous @quiltrageous.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

There's nothing wrong with being disabled. I'm disabled myself, yet my life still has purpose, as if that's even required of anybody.

Quiltrageous @quiltrageous.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

I think 47 *does* qualify as disabled. Sycophants surround him, prop him up, and do things for him that he no longer has to do himself. If they stopped catering to him he would lose the ability to wreak havoc. He'd starve and sit around in an unchanged diaper. Impotent figurehead of fascism.

Openly racist crap like this coming directly from the White House is why we no longer have any international allies. Abusers intentionally isolate their victims. Abusers love causing pain because that's just about the only time their cold, dead hearts can feel anything. I hope I live to see justice.

Climate change was the 100% cause behind the Nepal disaster. Watch this excellent video explaining the precise causes of the mountain faults that were kept together with ice acting as cement. This area’s air is warming up 5x faster than global average temperatures, melting this icy cement.

Propaganda is when lies are repeated often enough that they are believed. A government that takes care of the people is a good thing. Why have a society at all, if not to share resources and take care of each other?

Gretchen Whitmer shoved a data center down Saline Township's throat. She endorsed a billionaire over Michigan citizens. She's for forcing data centers on small communities that don't want them. So is Haley Stevens. They're both bought by billionaires & utility companies www.mlive.com/politics/202...
