Liberal Midwesterner. Mid-century music, architecture, vehicles, furnishings catch my eye. I know a little bit about freight and supply chains. I should read more. The journey is usually more rewarding than the destination.

I haven't made a FB post in months. I never signed up with Instagram. Or X/Twitter. Glad to still have Yahoo e-mail and BlueSky for staying aware. "NO KINGS" also means NO OLIGARCHY. VIGILANCE AND DETERMINATION, EVERYONE.
No corporation is gonna silence our message! ❌👑 Keep helping us amplify #NoKings today so we can drive HISTORIC early vote turnout, and overcome Trump’s election sabotage.
There must be severe and wide-sweeping legal repercussions once Democrats return to power. SERIOUS TIME BEHIND BARS. No "bygones." No "look forward, not backward." LAWS NEED TO APPLY TO EVERYONE.
More insider trading and war profiteering from inside the White House Billions made. Investigators were then told to stand down. Off the charts corruption.
So I was digging through unheard 45s this weekend from my stacks. And, as you can imagine...This one made me take notice from the first few seconds. Enjoy this uncommon B-side cut from 1963 by the Radiants. www.youtube.com/watch?v=efSP...
Hmmm. Altman said WE (not him!!) "should accept some bad things happening for the benefits of this technology..." What bad things is HE willing to accept as one of the few people positioned to amass the majority of said benefits? Independent regulation? Nationalization? A kill switch? Tell us!
A whole political movement should be stood up against this arrogant and sociopathic bullshit www.politico.com/newsletters/...
This 16-minute piece is one of the most remarkable things I've seen lately - showcasing the culture, artistic talent, and perseverence of a craftsperson in the twilight of his years. Alfie Jacques, master of building wooden lacrosse sticks. You need to watch this. www.facebook.com/watch/?v=108...
Go forth and multiply, little turtles!
Highly-endangered Hawksbill Turtle hatchlings emerging from the sand and marching to begin their life in the unimaginably vast ocean. One of the most amazing experiences of my life. As a volunteer, we do not divulge their whereabouts. My heart is melted. #herps #love #marinelife #nokings #turtle
Yeah...Ummm... "Existential risks [PLURAL!!!] to humanity" And here most of us freak out over medicines that may cause explosive diarrhea. Seems that AI, SI, or AYY YIII YIII is NOT what we need a this point in civilization.

I'm sharing this in the hope that some architect, municipal zoning person, or just a business owner with a public toilet will see this and think, "hey, I can get a sign like this made and make the world easier and less embarassing for someone." This SO. MAKES. SENSE.
This tiny fix solves a problem you never realized you had, and once you see it, it makes perfect sense.
ICEtapo is getting more violent and reckless as they are ordered to bring in more brown people. This sick brigade of mercenaries needs to be disbanded and members charged for everything from civil rights violations to accessories to murder. No amnesty. No "bygones." Prosecute, convict, sentence.
BREAKING: Evanston police confirm a U.S. citizen was briefly detained by federal agents Sunday morning near Howard and Dodge before being released The man was taken to the hospital for injuries to his head, neck and teeth after agents drove off
Perhaps one of the rarest vocal group records recorded in Wisconsin - just 25 miles from where I am typing. And he's broadcasting from SE Pennsylvania. COMPLETELY BLOWN AWAY by the synchronicity. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Mn7...
I just wrote to my Republican senator and basically said that their party does not want to witness the backlash of defying BOTH a COURT ORDER AND THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE. If you can write to your Congresscritter - ESPECIALLY THE GOP ONES - share YOUR MIND AND HEART. While we still can.
Column by Philip Kennicott: The fiasco of this week’s Kennedy Center closure reveals the truth of President Trump’s motivations — and what the arts community stands to lose. https://wapo.st/4AqIfj0
To even CONTEMPLATE that the current US regime has at least one person (or SEVERAL PEOPLE) who look to Josef Mengele to guide their research --- Again, I'm out of expletives. We need prosecutions, convictions, and lifetime sentences to remove these monsters from the rest of humanity.
HHS wants to relax regulations on human subject research (The Common Rule). For example, they want to redefine “undue influence” on vulnerable human research subjects (children, prisoners, disabled, culturally disadvantaged). 1/
Stating the obvious (again) - but PEOPLE IN ICE AND DHS NEED TO BE CHARGED, CONVICTED, AND IMPRISONED FOR LONG SENTENCES AS PUNISHMENT FOR ABETTING THESE ATROCITIES.
The Arizona Star is doing stand-out reporting on the plight of Ahmed Soliman, who grew up in Phoenix (since he was 4). ICE paid $7.5 million to Equatorial Guinea, a repressive dictatorship with a history of torture, to send him and others there. Now he's been tortured. 1/2 tucson.com/news/local/b...
Folks - especially those in the US Midwest - keep your eyes on this project. It's been restarted after an unexplained shut-down order...Even as juvenile carp were detected just a few miles away. It's essential to keep carp out of the Great Lakes ecosystem. greatlakes.org/2026/09/work...
I am looking for the day when a Congressional Truth Commission gets some white hat code jockeys to do some database matching of phone records, hotel records, paychecks, and other documents to identify all the ICE agents involved in every murder coverup - and then charge them as accessories to crime.
Eugenics and snuff films. The moral depravity of this regime has few equals over the past century.
Stephen Miller deserves to spend the rest of his natural life fighting a legal system charging him of crimes he didn't commit in a language he does not speak, alone, and without counsel: publicnotice.co/p/stephen-miller…
This should disturb ALL AMERICANS. Whenever government targets groups of its citizens, it can go after EVERY CITIZEN FOR ANY REASON IT CREATES. And we've seen that over and over with this regime. They're not quitting. They're becoming mre vicious.
Past federal surveillance of unions has generally happened “during really dark periods of our history,” said Jessica West, assistant professor of law at the Mitchell Hamline School of Law.
This is one of those things that has me totally floored. And happy for my friend of 35 years, who now has landed a very interesting gig. ultimateclassicrock.com/bob-dylan-gu...
Sharing because we must never lose sight - or sound - of the beauty that humans can create...Even as we acknowledge the destruction that (some) humans are gleefully causing. Thank you for posting, Global Museum.
This 1679 “Sabionari” Stradivarius is the only playable guitar by Antonio Stradivari left in this world.🤗 So take just a moment to hear a sound that’s well over 300 years old! @55SweetThing #globalmuseum #music #guitar #Stradivarius
Serious question: what kind of monsters do they have in Missouri to find themselves hating reading, children, AND DOLLY PARTON?!?!
I love living in Kansas City, but Missouri makes it tough each day. Reading to our young kids is essential for their development. There are currently 169,000 Missouri kids in the program, which sent out half a million books in the first three months of the year. Most won’t get new books.
Stephen Colbert will not be denied his video pantheon. He has returned to Monroe, Michigan after 11 years to guest host the local community access talk show. You really need to watch this. www.youtube.com/channel/UCGt...
