Meanwhile in a parallel universe: * President Harris faces historic low approval rating despite a thriving economy, adherence to rule of law, and the respect of our allies. * Former President Trump is sentenced to 13 years in prison for his 34 felony convictions. He vows to appeal.

At least $12 *trillion* from global oligarchs is hidden offshore in secret tax havens worldwide. And it is headquartered right here in the USA. Instead of cutting lifesaving programs like the VA, Medicaid, and food stamps, we should be cracking down on tax havens for the ultra-rich.

One of my party facts is that according to polls, Americans believe foreign aid is about 25% of the federal budget and on average that it *should* be about 10%. The actual number is less than 1%. Foreign aid has long been a boogey man of the right, so it's not surprising they're vilifying it now.

LinkedIn flagged my response to this article by @laraoreilly.bsky.social for non-compliance of their "Professional Community Policies". Yep, maybe I was off-topic. Still... I'm holding on to my Amateur status LinkedIn. Now's not the time for any of us to go Pro! #Resist #Transparency #Democracy

I cooked up a tasty dish tonight! Sweet Potato White Bean Farro With sauteed arugula/spinach and garlic minced. Farro has a bit of pesto with a tiny topper of honey or agave! #cooking #recipes #food

My son's #dog Coco - she takes great pride in finding balls on our walks and then chewing them to small pieces. I admire her work ethic and many of my songs these days are inspired by her... you can see why!

How does one cultivate authentic connections on this or any other platform without the mass of "Grow-a-Guy" or Girl follows? It's fine to follow me whomever you are, but you best play an instrument, be a decent human, seem real, or at least be funny for a follow. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDkC...

It's nothing of any significance or likely consequence, but I've changed my #Twitter aka #X profile pic to a #BlueBall. Imagine if millions of others change their profile pic? That would be a lot of blue balls!

Hey, new followers! Thanks for finding me on here! Hoping to connect with all the folks — music fans and otherwise — that I’ve been lucky to interact with on those other apps 🙏 It’s definitely a breath of fresh air over here on Blue Sky, and hopefully it’ll continue to be so long into the future. ☀️

Okay, almost done with my #Introduction stuff! Again, I look forward to the promise of this platform... we'll see how it all goes! Seems the world is dividing into factions and that's a shame but part of the times... My BirdwellMusic.com site is a hub for various music projects and other stuff!
