I have some kind of tangled-up childhood memory from my first or second year in elementary school, where I had a bumblebee purse something like this (I think mine had a zipper, though) and it was stolen or I lost it...?

Sometimes there are just weird parts of your life that'll never get untangled.

"No governmental agency has conducted an independent review of the Line 5 tunnel project. A 'trust us; pinky promise from a company like Enbridge and its track record isn’t good enough for our Great Lakes. Demand Gov. Whitmer & EGLE conduct a comprehensive review of the proposed Great Lakes tunnel."

Found someone's home movies. Cedar Point. May 1992. Good times.

This administration seriously has no understanding of consequences. Their impulsive decisions come at a price that they're not willing to recognize when they make them.

I put this up on FB--NBC News put this graphic up at 1 p.m.--and immediately got attacked by MAGA Trumpers calling it "old news" and "fake news" and "Biden figures."

These people won't see reality until it gang-rapes their bank account. Even then, they'll blame Obama.

At the moment, I only own one tape. I bought it for $1 out of nostalgia's sake and because it has the original cardboard cover. It's here to test out any 8-track players that I come across at the transfer station.

But, yea. I'd love to go old school and have shelves of eight-track tapes.

Imagine if Trump wasn't Russia's Manchurian Candidate--or Vladimir Putin's prize social experiment, whichever you prefer. A host of Russian-made child pornography would've already been released online, with him in the starring role.

The Epstein files would be a "Fun All Day" book by comparison.

The Trumpers in Michigan's Upper Peninsula are still out in force...

Escanaba Public Safety released a statement about the House of Ludington fire and the Republican contingent is still clinging to their Bibles and calling out that it's a conspiracy and the libs are behind it! Jesus take the wheel.

God willing that we have another Democratic administration. If Trump figured out via Musk how to change the election numbers, then that, combined with removing "blue" districts, could spell the end to our democracy and march their autocracy into place.

This is the dangerous, racist path the Trump Administration has put us on.

Donald J. Trump cows people--or, for whatever reason, they let themselves be cowed by him. The big question is why. Why does he have some sort of power over others, to make them do what he wants, even if it's the worst thing they could possibly do for themselves, loved ones, or even our country?

This is how stupid the Trump crowd is. This woman was (rightfully) providing solid information on how the burning of the House of Ludington released everything from lead to asbestos into the air... and people were LAUGHING at her! It Is an environmental hazard, one they treated as a joke.

Ugh.

For several years, I was big on watching YT videos of sea lion shows at SeaWorld San Diego and SeaWorld Orlando. The star at the time was Duke. He made an appearance at the end of the final Sea Lions Live show, but I don't think he participated in the new show they rolled out (too old by that time).

"Ten years ago, White House photographer Pete Souza walked over to entrance hall of the East Wing to take a few iPhone photos of the Christmas decorations about to hung... "Alas, this scene will never be repeated since the East Wing has been forever demolished,” Pete posted, along with this photo."
