Last week, Simon got his forever home and this week Garfunkel got his forever home. Our third successfully fostered dog learning a lot about dogs and ourselves.

Just hanging with the pets. Happy May Day everyone.

this is a level of sycophancy unconceivable even to the most crawling of courtiers in the past. genuine advancement in asslicking technology. remember where you were at this moment.

Come take this dog off my hands trilogy spa Newark.

Back in the nineties, I was effectively gay-bashed out of high school; I only graduated because my family threatened the district with a lawsuit. That and hanging out at Rocky Horror in Long Beach.

Imagine laws, but for rich people.

I erroneously thought that electing DJT again was unlikely, and that it would be like watching the end of the Whig party. I’m frightened that we will end up in another reconstruction or worse continental congress.

Can’t wait to find out how much my ostomy supplies are gunna go up glad I started stockpiling 3 months ago

„No reason to escalate while the damage grows organically.“ Interesting summary by Jakob Hanke Vela on the mood in Brussels regarding the Trump tariffs.

2026: under cover of darkness a Nova Scotian fishing boat quietly slips into a cove in Maine, dropping off crates of Nvidia GPUs and picking up barrels of bourbon before disappearing back into the night, one step ahead of the coastguard drones

The east wing of the garden is finally starting to take shape moving some little blue stem in now. Last weekend it was smooth blue aster and the weekend before it was the false aster. Took a day from work to get this done before the rain excited to show it in bloom as we get further into spring.

The notion that moving forward it might make sense to keep a weather log just to gauge drought conditions is mighty depressing even though it’s exactly the sort of old timey excuse to use really fancy paper and pens I go for.

And just like that Siren is with her new family. It was a lot of fun and hard work house breaking her learned a lot about myself and dogs in the process. Super excited for her to graduate to a fenced in back yard.

On the morning dog walk at 0520 we saw 11 police cars and a bear cat post up on a corner, At 0600 sharp they drove off at 0604 three flashbangs. Somebody in the neighborhood had a rough morning.

Not the first person to make this observation, but it's so striking how the media covered the crack epidemic as a problem caused by black/urban drug users and the fentanyl epidemic as a problem imposed externally on white/rural drug users.

Stopped by one of my old liquor stores. They decided to move away from luxury offerings so we’re closing out a lot of the Spanish and German bottles at a penny above wholesale so let’s say that was a hard six bottles to choose.

Poodles are a lot of fun. I wish I was a better dog trainer with more time. They love nothing more than to get a pat on the head and to hear their good. Really high energy though.

zoomers romanticizing early 2010s millennial life are gonna love the national economy pretty shortly

scores of pissed off Mormon CIA agents who just got canned are ideologically cross-pollinating with platoons of fired trans FBI agents. we are on the verge of new types of politics our ancestors could only dream about

We are fostering this poodle with Renee’s rescue in Delaware she will be available for adoption soon.

Man it was nice having a weather service.

Fostering dogs is a lot of work. I’ve got to sign my wife up for a huge time commitment just to maintain parity. Super cute though.

Pretty stoked that Japan has 4 hydrophone ships now. Between those and a fleet of AIP subs, HELO carriers they have a pretty effective fence for the PLAN atomic attack submarine fleet.

Last shift on nights at Amazon back to days next week. Not exactly a promotion not a demotion either, but I do think it will be harder to get promoted out of this role than my last one. Working nights has tamped down my desire to let them have more control over my schedule.

Love this for him.

How many of our allies do we have to sell out! Not repatriating all of the translators and gosh darn it whole ethnic groups during gulf war 2 will be an enduring shame. What we are doing to the Ukrainian people is worse. Abdicating our role as the global hegemon will end poorly.

At this point twitter is basically satisfactorily reconstituted on bluesky.
