Just got back from voting, but might mosey over to the high school on election day just to see if ICE is up to any shenanigans. I mean, I'm a mostly retired vet, so the most I could do is threaten to neuter the ICE agents, but still....

Happy Columbo day to those who celebrates.
Life-sized bronze statue of Columbo, portrayed in his signature disheveled trench coat, standing and scratching his head in a thoughtful pose. In front of him, there is a smaller statue of his loyal basset hound, sitting and looking up at him. The statues are placed on a sidewalk in an urban area with trees and parked cars lining the street.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

Having a vet you like and trust is easily half the battle: like I said, good luck with the big kid. My old boss said that dogs are born with three legs plus a spare, so if one leg is sore, they’ll still run full out, then stop with a look like, “Well, that was dumb, wasn’t it, ’cause now I hurt!”

Good luck with him, and keep an eye out: some stuff doesn't show on plain films, or shows up later on. The dog is often smarter than the doc (speaking as the doc). And if you feel like answering, and out of curiosity, left front or rear leg?

Collins Watch @collinswatch.bsky.social · 24/09/2026
Wow. "They're still working together" is how Susan Collins campaign manager describes the relationship between the guy running Susan Collins's super PAC -- which Susan Collins is legally barred from coordinating with -- and Collins's own spouse. Hello? tinyurl.com/mwyuxh67 #MEpolitics
Bangor Daily News article: Collins has defended Reed’s character while denying a bribery scheme, telling reporters in Washington on Wednesday that the operative is “a person of great integrity,” according to Punchbowl News. Reporters questioned a top aide on Daffron’s work with Reed in Portland on Wednesday.

“He’s an adult professional that’s worked off and on with Scott Reed for 30-something years, maybe 40-something years,” Steve Abbott, Collins’ campaign manager and longtime chief of staff, said of Daffron. “They’re friends, and they’re still working together.”

In all the grandiose discussion about colonising Mars, I don't see much about how the soil is poisonous to us. This was only discovered in 2008. It contains perchlorates, which are environmental toxins here on Earth. Any human contact with Mars dust? Super-bad news in the long run. 1/

This seems like a pretty big deal: donors made illegal contributions to Susan Collins and then were awarded lucrative contracts after her office intervened with the Navy. An FBI investigation was dropped under Trump. www.propublica.org/article/fbi-...
To skirt campaign finance laws and conceal the source of the funds, Navatek planned to funnel the donation through a shell company. The CEO wanted assurance that Collins would know where
the money came from. Reed confirmed that she would, the executive said - and that Navatek would get its government contracts.
After the Corner Bakery meeting, Navatek's CEO, Martin Kao, sent an initial $150,000 to the Collins super PAC using the shell company. Two months later, he told Navatek executives that Collins committed to getting the company $32 million in naval contracts, according to an internal company email reviewed by ProPublica.
