If Trump wants to be viewed as a peacemaker, maybe he should stop trying to start wars in U.S. cities.

Maybe everyone aboard commercial fishing boats could just go play a round of golf instead. Because, you know, they don't have to earn a living or anything.

We have solar, and since our city generates a lot of its energy using hydroelectric, when we and our neighbors feed excess solar powered electricity into the grid, hydroelectric can slow down, which means our lake is my battery.

Woohoo! How about that #economy. Totally #winning. 🙄

Wow! Traditional skills! Mare's tails and mackerel sky on day one portended severe weather that materialized on days three through five. I pulled out on day three and avoided thunderstorms that snapped another boat's mast in two places and struck a third boat with lightning. Thankfully, no one died.

I won't get into a #Tesla #Robotaxi anytime soon. If my DOGE-accessed personal data show I don't kowtow to #Trump or the #TechBros, might the Robotaxi suddenly lock its doors and rush me to a plane and a one-way ticket to a foreign gulag?

A year ago, conspiracy theory. Today, a different world.

I see the #TrumpParade was a success. No, wait ... This image is from when we _defeated_ #fascism.

For the #parade, the Pentagon should mail #Trump two G.I. Joes with a letter stating that they wish they could have given him thirty, but for the #tariffs.

It's unfortunate that so many in the #Trump admin can't comprehend the #equity that the "E" in #DEI stands for and who perceive the possibility of loss of #privilege as reverse discrimination.

Back to Chapman, because I have a five-day dinghy camping trip coming up, and who knows which weather forecasting apps and websites depend on Trump-hobbled NOAA.

Brushing up on predicting weather from clouds, barometers, and such is never a bad idea anyway.

Jeez. Never thought I'd pine for the days of typewriters again.

Social media and other casual writing are a different animal. I pull out the red pencil only for formal writing.
