Balkanoid Texan in NY

May this bring y’all as much peace and quiet as it brings me every day.

Fall is here and it’s going to be a nice one this year. Free Palestine and fuck this Nazi administration.

This should be really interesting. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Maybe both @kamalaharris.com & @gavinnewsom.bsky.social should sit this one out considering that it was the uniparty and its blind devotion to (AI)PACs and Israel first that got us in this mess. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

This is what I show people every time they say Dobermans are dangerous.

Yesterday, this morning and just now. Happy pride month to all who celebrate it. Also, there’s no need to over analyze the dead white oak. It’s coming down tomorrow.

Volume on and enjoy.

My Squad. If everything works out it’ll be one more rescue soon.

Hi y’all, I’m Bob and I’m 13 yrs old.

Best part about domesticating a property nobody took care of for decades is uncovering spots like this.

Why would anyone want to live in the city?

I don’t blame them. It is a very pleasant 65 with a breezy 20mph SW winds.

Majority of both GOP and Dem are owned by the same lobbyists/PACs, and their votes on issues like the war powers are just a cynical show to appease the public. If we can vote these hacks into offices, we should be able to recall them. Amendment to allow us that would be a good debate.

Personally, the best time of owning a dog is when they’re transitioning out of the puppy stage. Her guard instinct is on 24/7, but chasing birds is just too tempting.

Some dogs love chasing after a string, just like cats. Next step is obviously getting a cat.

Can’t wait until leaves come in in about 4 weeks. 65-ish degrees, light breeze, heavy shade, espresso in one hand, herbs in the other, Pink Floyd on speaker, and as I have no neighbors around… pure ecstasy.

Something tells me Iran has spent decades playing out war scenarios and establishing mutual “pain point” thresholds to coincide with their ‘rocketeering’ and diplomatic responses. Denying use of military bases looks like Iran is talking to Europeans directly, or Europeans sending a message to Iran.

One of the untold benefits of living in rural NY are tailgating city weekenders on a potholed road that I’m intimately familiar with.

How to enjoy a Nor’easter.

Upstate sunrise.

If you ever wondered what it’s like living with dobes, this is it. One patrols the perimeter, one guards me, and maintains control while the third one is inside next to a fire, giving absolutely zero fucks. In short, empathy goes a long way. Be kind to all, and above all, fuck Nazis.

Some of my best work to date.

Me: “My dogs are dogs, they’re not pets.” Also me at 5am starting a fire because the old dude likes the warmth.

I was shaped by ‘90s rave scene, survivor of ‘99 and ‘00 Berlin love parades, firm believer Armin Van Buuren is underrated while Paul Van Dyk is overrated, and that Faith No More is the greatest band of all times, but this girl is killing it with retro vibes. open.spotify.com/track/16mdIS...

Good morning y’all and fuck this Nazi administration. Here’s an intermezzo of an epic spectacle of fall colors this morning.

Maybe foreigner investors will rethink where they place their factories in the future. www.koreatimes.co.kr/foreignaffai...

Come on @theguardian.com You can do better.

Very pleasant 61 degrees, birds singing, wind blowing, absolute peace and quiet. I hope you all have an even better day.

For once, just once, I’d love to see an astronomer in the office. The same people who can understand the uber complex nature of the universe, and dumb it down to us simpletons so we can enjoy it, are bound to be better at solving earth problems simply because of their logic and infinite patience.

If I tried to photoshop this, I’d still fall short. Gotta love Bluesky algorithm.

Has anyone noticed how awfully quiet Elise Stefanik has been on a national scene?

With all the hate directed at our lgtq brothers and sisters, I would think that Assolini would benefit from having at least one drag queen on his staff to help him blend in that paste he wears.

I wonder if Assolini is just now figuring out what this attack will do to his shitty brand. Every building with his name on it, branded or owned by Assolini, will be a target for a long time. And Qatar recently announced a $5.5 billion fascist branded resort. www.reuters.com/world/middle...

It doesn’t matter how many toys I buy, nothing beats a plastic bottle.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that the next step will be neighborhood invasions, where whole blocks are cut off and they’re going door to door, causing as much misery as possible?

Is this our Skynet moment? Is our future some half assed, Idiocracy like, version of The Terminator where we’ll be chased by some barely functioning “Tesler”robots with Chuck Schumer as our resistance leader? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

Meanwhile in ‘z’ Germany. Fuck the Nazis. www.dw.com/en/afd-party...

Just another reason why spring is the best season. I was working outside when this little guy showed up to say high.

Enough of bad news. This, not so little, puppy had a bad day yesterday, but she’s happy to be alive and today will definitely be a better day. Gaining weight finally so today is all about chasing bunnies and squirrels. For the record, she can’t catch either.

Are we now a shit hole country, full of suckers and losers?

Digging for chipmunks season is officially open.

Come on, people. We got a bit more to go.

Fuck you @schumer.senate.gov

Here’s a different kind of dilemma to hopefully make your day a bit better. Today was a bath day and they were on their best behavior. So, how many treats is the right amount of treats for being good pups? I would make them eggs, but I ain’t rich.

Good morning all, and fuck you @schumer.senate.gov

Fuck you again @schumer.senate.gov

Is anyone paying attention to Argentina? In short, a president with really bad hair is beating the living shit out of retirees who were protesting benefit cuts, while gifting chainsaws to a saluting nazi. We’re 3 out of 4 so far -Bad hair ✔️ -Benefit cuts ✔️ -Nazi with gifted chainsaw ✔️
