Just got home from seeing Digger. We were literally the only two people in the theater, which is a shame because Digger is great. It's funny, challenging, at times even moving. Visually stunning. Amazing sound design. This is an important film and I wish more people would see it.

#tdih 1962, "Silent Spring" by Rachel Carson published, exposed impact of pesticides on environment. Carson was vilified: called a Communist, disloyal, unscientific, and hysterical. Sound familiar? Attacks on truth tellers, with media complicity. See⬇️🧵 www.zinnedproject.org/news/tdih/si...

There's no cute Midwestern water tower in Portland, Oregon unfortunately. But if they ever need one the hamlet of Portland, North Dakota (pop. 575), might be willing to sell theirs.

We are planning to retire in a couple of years...perfect time to have a madman in the White House actively trying to destroy our economy while doubling the national debt. If the next 30 years of my life are screwed up by T-rump's incompetence I will return to haunt his line for seven generations.

American conservativism is morally and intellectually bankrupt. We are witnessing the death throws of a movement that has been ailing for a century now. Trump has put it on life support. Hopefully we'll see it euthanized within the decade so America can move on to better things.

Sad to hear of Randoph Mantooth's passing-- I was literally watching Emergency! last night on a streamer. Grew up with that show in the 70s, never missed an episode. Great entertainment and he was a big part of its success, made a lot of young people consider EMS as a career.

He partnered with real-life pal Kevin Tighe (Roy DeSoto) on the popular NBC series, then did lots of soap operas.

According to the US EPA the average US household uses 9,000 gallons of water per month. This is for all uses: drinking, cooking, bathing, toilets, laundry, yard watering, etc. We use 1/4 of that without really trying to conserve much...so what's up with the Average Americans?

I had a dream about Kash Patel last night-- not in the MLK sense but an actual dream. I was in the oval office and Patel was literally a snake... bit me, so I stomped on the snake and killed it. Several cabinet members were there, all proclaiming the snake was "fine" to Trump. It was not.

A dear friend of ours brought us some incredible paprika when he returned from a visit to Hungary last fall. I've been rationing it since, but this week we're going to make a celebratory paprikash to mark Orban's fall! (Still holding on to a bottle of champagne to toast Trump's, in whatever form.)

Sage Magister @sagemagister.bsky.social · 12/04/2026

Orban loses! Good riddance, and hopefully a sign of things to come in the US. Anything Trump (or Don Jr.) touches turns to shit, and I appreciate their willingness to help restore democracy in Hungary. Can we be next? www.nytimes.com/2026/04/12/w...

NPR: "It's unclear what authority the president has to enforce this action." Please, just tell the truth: the president has NO LEGAL AUTHORITY AT ALL to impose his whims...his bullshit executive orders and social media posts have no more weight of law than some kid's blog posts.

This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Stuck in a Montana hotel last night and made the mistake of watching this movie. It's cringingly bad despite the cast. But if you read the production notes it's clear why-- the FBI got involved, it took six years to release, and Baldwin had his directorial credit hidden.

Let's stop mocking Trump as "Grandpa," OK? Both of my grandfathers were everything he is not: hard-working, ethical, kind, moral, loving men who cared for their families and supported their communities. One of them built Victory ships in WWII, the other grew food as a farmer. Neither was an asshole.
