Happy New Year. Thanks for asking. Sixty something in Oregon on the liberal side of the middle trying to get my head around everything that's been happening. I joined Bluesky with the intent to post more and get engaged, but instead, I spent 2025 shut down and hiding. I intend to get out in 2026.

Yikes. I wish I could remember the name. I wasn't so deep into the religion that I knew all the hierarchy. It was St. Mary's in downtown Portland, OR. Whoever was serving the diocese at the time.

Politically divisive? I was at mass one Sunday years ago, when a visiting bishop stood in front of the congregation and told everyone to vote for John McCain. That was the last time I went to church.

He needs more tacky gold painted plastic stuff on his desk.

AH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! Oh my god! What happened to the AP? How long have they been like this?

Uncomfortable. I'll bet they're very concerned, too.

I see that's what he SAID. What's ACTUALLY going on?

Probably waiting for Infrastructure Week to announce.

That scene with Armand and Albert at the bus stop was so loving and genuine.

Alright. I'll give it a try.

Can attest. Prices are already up.

... or maybe they just don't want to.

If only it was just a Brexit.
