And every single Democrat Senator who voted yes tonight….yeah…they’re not up for reelection. Funny how that all worked out. Schumer needs to resign tonight.

One of the best scores my son received trick-or-treating on Halloween this year was a mini kaleidoscope. It’s been absolutely hypnotic to him. I kinda love it too — I forget how fun old-school, non-electronic toys can be. I think Santa needs to bring more like these this year. No batteries!

Dog owners understand the “Where’s Waldo” battle we face this time of year when cleaning up after our furballs. As the light fades earlier, and the grass turns brown - the difficulty level exponentially increases. (only leaves pictured here- afaik 🤣)

Sometimes I miss the moonrise ‘cause I’m stuck in traffic, or plain still working. I still grabbed a couple of photos w/ my phone tonight. She’s jussssst about full! I love the twinge of pink; first on the mountaintops, and then in the skies. I needed this. Anyone else *feeling* the near-full moon?

Vanity plates always make me wonder about the person behind the wheel, and what their stories might be about. Not sure about this one, but driving this Ferrari would probably give me a brain-gasm. That color tho, has me seeing red.
What do we think @bwjones.bsky.social? Neuro doc, or just for fun?

I think it was my college roommate who popped in “Rave till Dawn” that got me. But I’m old.
Also…I was curious what year Sandstorm was released (it’s 1999/2000). I go to Wikipedia just to see what they have to say. Ohh - I can play a sample <clicks play> - subtitles are on? And I’m now in tears😂.

So…what causes a post like this (and the article itself) to have these weird errors that say “&mdash”? I’m assuming it’s AI and auto generated? Or what else causes/results in this type of content slop.

Hands down one of my favorite (and funniest) moments last night trick-or-treating with my son, was at a neighbor’s house where they had a “candy chute” they started during Covid. And one option was for ramen noodles. Here’s my son getting himself packet of beef flavored Maruchan noodles. So Stoked!

Played a very fun, but poorly played (on my part) game of chess with my brother, nephew and his fiancé, and my son yesterday. Photo by my sister-in-law. I kinda want one of these giant sets now.

My son loves animals —especially cats. While on our walk last night he made friends with yet another neighborhood kitty. He took off his hoodie and put it on the ground for the cat, in case the cat was cold (ignoring his own cold) and it immediately came over and plopped down next to him. My heart.

Construction of the new ball room is coming along nicely at the White House.

With all the *everything* happening around us in the world, our country, our state…I try to just remember why I even bother to get up in the morning. My son makes it crystal clear to me exactly why…thanks kid. Dad loves you and loves seeing the world through your eyes.

Memes aside, I’ve got a cousin who is an absolute bellwether of right-wing conspiracy theories. I don’t block her because she is basically my touchstone when it comes to seeing what “deep-state conspiracy” is currently being spread among her ilk. She has absolutely 0% common sense…and she votes.

Just saw this for Utah. It doesn’t sound like the State is going to pick up the slack either. Holy smokes. Families/kids are going to suffer. I hope the wealthy church out here puts its money where its mouth is, and opts to help. If they can afford fancy new temples they can afford to feed families.

So very bummed to find out I missed catching the poet Rudy Francisco here in Utah this week. A friend shared one of his poems with me once, when I needed it…needed *something*. Hopefully next time I’ll find out beforehand that he’s coming. Give him a read if you haven’t before. Word balm.

Trump is demolishing the front of East Wing right now, built ~100 years ago, to build his golden ballroom; paid for with bribes from his “patriot donors” and “private sources”.
No President has ever privately constructed a permanent structure at the White House. It’s always been publicly funded.

I wonder if this is partly why Admiral Alvin Holsey (of the Southern Command) peaced out? He knew this was coming. First Argentina, then Venezuela, and now Columbia? Which country is next? What the hell is he up to?
