So I finally bought a new turntable and cartridge to replace the MoFi with the bad azimuth set screw. I could not be happier! This VPI absolute tank weighing in at around 50lbs. Paired with the Audio Technica ART9xi it sounds better than I could have imagined! #vinyl #nowspinning

Sadly it wasn't a box of latex.

Was a nice day to be out on a trout stream. This nice looking little brown hammered a #16 Elk Hair Caddis, but it was the only catch I had. Still the scenery was nice!

Black folk carrying the water as usual.

And just wait until we find out the meager campaign finance laws, that we do have, won't be enforced against anyone running as a Republican. Only Democrats will be under scrutiny, since they replaced everyone that investigates such things, with sycophants loyal to King Donald The First.

Ding dong! A 2 for 1! www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

SHOCK NYT REPORT: DHS now admits the man ICE killed in Houston wasn't even their target. Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a 35-year U.S. resident, was just driving to work when agents — with no body cameras — shot him dead searching for two other men who weren't even in the van. Gift link in reply.

Kestrel is very annoyed because I’m testing different camera apps on her.

Probably an unpopular take, but Amish are weird assholes.

I’ve used pretty much only Android since 2009. Today I bought an iPhone Pro Max 17 for something different. Google’s enshitification started to annoy me. Liking most things so far,but the learning curve was more than I expected. After almost 20 years I keep looking for the “back” button.😩😂

Coming soon.

BREAKING: Georgia lawmakers have taken redistricting off the table as a result of public pressure. The state will no longer consider a new, racist map that would have diluted Black voting power. This victory makes it loud and clear: Our demands are working.

Just got word from the dealer that inspected the car, in a different city, that the oil filterand gasket were improperly seated leading to a blowout as pressure rose in the engine.

When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package: Overturn Citizens United Ban corporate PACs and super PACs Ban members of Congress from trading stocks Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this entire corrupt system.

Took three month old Hyundai to the dealer for an oil change this morning. 100ish miles from home all the oil had leaked out and the warning light came on. Hyundai towed it 50 miles to the dealer 50 miles from home. Dealer was closed and I was told too bad. No additional help with a loaner or room.

🚨 The Ministers Quartet, however, has agreed to play the Great American State Fair.

🚨 Breaking: Ken has withdrawn from the Great American State Fair.

This just aired on my local news, and there are two big takeaways: 📌More confirmation that Becerra is the clear front-runner. 📌Voter turnout is extremely low so far. If you haven’t voted yet, drop off your ballot. Don’t wait. Make sure your vote is counted.

Tried a new to me trout stream today. Was about to call it a day, as not much was happening, but decided to change to a caddis and cast upsteam to a fairly deep hole. Third cast, about 50 feet up, this nice brown lunged on the fly.

Go bold! There’s nothing to lose and it drags Trump even further into the gutter.

Kestrel and Victoria's ninth birthday celebration has just begun! They just finished rolling around with catnip! 🎂🥳

Trump is following Orban and Putin's playbook which includes elections fixing. I'm not buying the Massie results nor the SC results coming out of Georgia.

A million dollars to overthrow the government what a crock of shit.

Kars4Kids ads make it sound like your car donations helped children in need. A California judge just BANNED the ads across the state because that’s a lie. Donations actually fund Orthodox Jewish indoctrination programs and matchmaking services. open.substack.com/pub/friendly...

New trout stream for me. One of the prettiest I've been to so far in the Driftless. Ice cold 35° water and loaded with small hungry brook trout. Until the sun came out it was one after another after another hitting my fly. Was a fun hour or so.

Anyone else notice we never heard about Venezuelan oil again after there was public uproar over putting the proceeds into a random UAE account? They say it was closed, but guessing it wasn't.

My favorite time of the year to fly fish in Wisconsin. The weeds aren't neck deep, there's no mosquitos, temps low 60s, streams ice cold, and hatches popping off. Couldn't ask for anything better.

Maybe it's not real. But, give it 6 months.

Hungary is having a blast; the quality of life has improved across the nation since Orban was cast away into the dark forest away from human civilization.

It’s almost like there is a media landscape that recognized after deregulation and the creation of Fox News in 1987 that there was an extraordinary pull to grievance and the money it generated.

Key words: “by the school.” In Hollywood 80 years ago, we had very clear ideas about how to treat HUAC lapdogs and informers. No one involved in this choice should hold a job in education ever again.

Wow. The time to stand up is now. They can do this anywhere now and they are and poof! the certain dem mjrty in OUR representatives’ house melts away…. and with it our main electoral hope of slowing down this fascist racist lawless insanity we are all, all, all of us living through. 🌈🌀

I still use the Frugal Gourmet's poundcake recipe. It's the best damn poundcake recipe ever. Too bad he turned out to be a perv :/
