Putin's Puppet! Trump the Chump! Call him what you will, but don't call him tough, intelligent, or a patriot. Yesterday we all watched the United States become Russia's 90th regional administration. MAGA? No, we're becoming weaker & more pitiful by the day. #MAGA #RussianAsset

I have always enjoyed this passage from “A Christmas Carol”. It captures my thoughts about Christmas perfectly. Merry Christmas my Bluesky peeps, and to quote Tiny Tim, “God bless us, everyone”.🎄 #MerryChristmas #AChristmasCarol #GodBlessUs #Everyone

No, Billy Connolly is.

If you can hear the voice & the laugh, you’re my kind of people. #TheShadowKnows

This must be the Director’s Cut of Young Guns II. With a run time of over two months, I hope there’s an intermission.

I spent much of my day selling Christmas trees. There is something magical in watching children choose the tree that they believe is the one that will come into touch with Santa.

I believe in justice, and I have no problem with this.

Happy St Andrew’s Day to all Scots, and to all who celebrate their Scottish heritage. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Slàinte Mhath 🥃

Anyone would think they’d been eating turkey all afternoon.

For all we have, all we have had, and all we will have, may we give thanks. #Thanksgiving

“Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay ANY price, bear ANY burden, meet ANY hardship, SUPPORT ANY FRIEND, oppose ANY foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty.” President John F. Kennedy. Ukrainians are a free people and we stand against tyranny.

And the Thanksgiving Eve tradition continues…

Wishing all who are traveling to be with family & friends this Thanksgiving holiday, safe travels. May the road rise up to meet you, and may the wind be always at your back. #ThanksgivingTravel

I like that I live in a world that includes koalas, especially baby koalas. 🐨

An important travel reminder as we take to the air, sea, rails & road for the Thanksgiving holiday. Be aware, MOST cows cannot pilot a helicopter. #YoureWelcome #Thanksgiving2024 #ThanksgivingTravel #CowPilots #Helicopters

For guests who don’t like turkey, you can now offer turkey made with pork. It’s a Thanksgiving Miracle!! 🍗🍽️🥓

I think the late Irish comedian Spike Milligan may have been onto something here. Of course in colder weather I recommend you substitute “under a tree” with “in your favorite chair with a warm drink & a good book”.

Is there a collective noun for abandoned X verified ticks? I’m thinking a loser of ticks. #GoodbyeX #XisDead #TooBad #SoSad

Just finished a bottle of Lagavulin (16 year), and truth be told I prefer the Laphroaig (10 year). They are both great scotches, but the Laphroaig has a more interesting taste. #SingleMalt 🥃 #Scotch 🥃 #Lagavulin 🥃 #Laphroaig 🥃

Darn it! I was going to make some buttered toast, but I can't find my muffin dish. Looks like it's dry toast for dinner for me tonight.

It's a pity they didn't have television in 1890 because this would have been a ratings bonanza!! #Haggis #Lobbing #Scotland

A Sunday morning flashback to the kazoo band marching in this year's Independence Day Parade in Ocean Park. The first few notes are a little wonky & they struggle to keep in step, but I love it.

Given we are going to have much to do over the next four years, I promise you all that I won’t be spending that time in a tree pretending to be a toucan. #TrumpYears #WorkToDo #Toucan #MichaelLeunig

This photo of Louis Armstrong, playing for his wife Lucille in front of the Sphinx in Egypt in 1961, will forever be one of my favorite photos. #LouisArmstrong #TheGreatSatchmo #BlackHistoryMonth

Trying to think of a way of telling the dogs that the Trump presidency is going to be seven times longer for them. #dogyears

A pile or two of books I have yet to read, and I am finally making a start. (I'm old school too. Wherever possible it's turning paper pages.)

Okay, it's after 02:30, my peeps are all secure, and my final coffee has been consumed. Signing off now. See you in a few hours.

When you only have 68 followers this isn’t a problem. #justsayin

I'm dying 😂😂🤣😂

I like it when moments of sanity pepper our news. #Ukraine 🇺🇦 #SalvaUkraini 🇺🇦

If you're not following RiotGrlErin, you really need to start. I look forward to her posts every time I log on. @riotgrlerin.bsky.social

We must do all we can to help save Ukraine from cowardly Trump and his puppeteer master Putin. Democrats must commit to sending everything we can before the inauguration to help Ukrainians win this war. #StandUpForUkraine 🇺🇦 #Ukraine #Freedom #SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦

OMG! Kindred spirits do exist!!!

Extending kindness to others isn't a difficult task, and it isn't complicated. It's in our genetic makeup. We live in interesting times, and kindness, empathy, compassion, generosity, and patience will be necessary to see us through. #Kindness

Very pleased to see that @kiwibreeder.bsky.social has arrived. If you’re not following her, you should be. #BlueTrue #Bluesky

Okay, time to call it a night. Looking forward to spending time with you all tomorrow. #BlueTrue

Just deactivated my business account on X. It always feels good to get things off your to-do list. #byebyeX #muskgo

On the plus side, the Shit Creek Paddle Store is advertising great Black Friday discounts. You don't want to be caught up creek without one. 🛶

BREAKING NEWS: Elon Musk to fund an enlarged septic tank for cabinet meetings during the next administration. I don't know what to tell you. Trump's naming his cabinet, and this is what happens when shit builds up. #TrumpAppointments

Looking for ways to support Ukraine after the inauguration. The strength, passion, patriotism, and love of the people of Ukraine is a lesson to us all. We cannot let our challenges distract us from their cause. #Ukraine 🇺🇦 #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦

As if my life couldn't get anymore interesting, today I discovered that I am officially under 5' 11". At this rate I'll be an Oompa Loompa by Valentine's Day. #height #shrinking
