My stepson equivalent is in NZ and sitting right front in a not-so-small small plane. I am jealous as hell. The path to getting a private ticket often starts like this, and - "The first one's free." 🤣

Assuming we make it through the next couple of decades, this will be an incredible image for future historians/students of the Trump era

I'll miss the FB groups from Sognefjord. I hope they find their way here soon. Need to keep up my norsk reading skills, ja. (Bildet var min oldefars gard).

1/29/2025 "The White House budget office on Wednesday rescinded an order freezing federal grants, according to a copy of a new memo obtained by The Washington Post, after the administration’s move to halt spending earlier this week provoked a backlash". OK, that's a start.

Sergeant Gonell @sergeantaqgo.bsky.social sent me this picture. This is his call log. Each call is an automated Dept of "Justice" notification saying "The defendant you testified against is being released from the dept of corrections." Each defendant assaulted him.

The folks at NewsGuard are under attack for scoring news sites on disinformation. I guess the theory behind the attacks is that calling out BS is a violation of free speech? www.newsguardtech.com/about-newsgu...

I am working with a refurbished Dell PC (Microsoft Windows) and a Pixel 8a (Google) and they don't like to share anything with each other. At all. Ever. Expect some garbled attempts at photos and floods of depleted expletives for the foreseeable future.
