The ENTIRE East Wing.

But if and when they do, won’t they have scrubbed all mention of him?

If someone ever follows that up asking if we will get money back I will treat myself to five minutes of happiness.

How can anyone think this is all OK. This is a psychological story for the ages.

Why does anyone platform this toady? He is incapable of speaking the truth about anything.

Which is probably why EPA had just canceled their flood protection grant.

Also they are missing the world they walk through, the sights and sounds of real life. This always makes me sad.

Since you persist I looked it up and found the city stopped planting the gingkos, which will make you happy. But I am sad you brought this into what was my simple reply to the beauty of his photo. Sometimes it is OK to just enjoy the beauty of the moment.

Another excuse to avoid doing the people’s business.

The city has two professional arborists. I walk by these trees all the time and have never smelled anything.

Our city is now planting these beautiful trees. Each leaf is an extraordinary work of it. There is a very large one a few blocks away that we visit often. Thanks for this lovely image.

They want to shoot us in the streets.

katupstate.bsky.social @katupstate.bsky.social · 12d

WHAT!!?!

katupstate.bsky.social @katupstate.bsky.social · 12d

Having been a college student at the time of the Kent State killings, I have seen that troops can be provoked to shoot their fellow citizens. Never thought we would see that kind of darkness again. I pray we don’t.

It makes me feel sad. I hike around in fields and forests all the time. Folks are always telling me what podcasts to listen to. No! I am there to listen to the birds and the bugs, the rustling of leaves and the whoosh of water.

What is clear is that the laws don’t matter to him and he will just go ahead.

katupstate.bsky.social @katupstate.bsky.social · 22d

So important.

katupstate.bsky.social @katupstate.bsky.social · 22d

Yet where will we be if all the good ones leave? I hope they stay strong and keep serving. We need them.

I tell everyone who will listen to read “The Heat Will Kill You First.”
