My attention was grabbed by those buildings when I visited my brother in 2016.

It kinda looks like someone made a big smudge in the sky. 4/20/26. #photography

It was just glitchy here. Was it completely down there?

I realize it can be beneficial to the soul to avoid all the talking heads. Viktor Orban, one of the evil birds of a feather, was defeated badly. Some others appear to be on a slippery slope to the exit.

A favorite Ole Smokey flavor of mine is their mango habañero.

This is a very nice photo. I can see how it might cause the wiring to melt.

That happened to me the first time, too. I saw in a youtube video where the person soaked it in a peroxide mixture to kill pathogens, then sealed it in a ziplock bag until it sprouted well. If I started seeing mold, I soaked it again in diluted peroxide. It took maybe around 6 weeks.

The more you toot, the better you feel.

Life would be boring without a few clouds. 4/15/26.

Wow! Sorry to hear that you're being bombarded from every direction. I hope you find enough sources of strength to get you through it.

I think that might be spelled "piece."

Spoken by a true April's Fool.

One more from 4/5/26.

It's been a good day! The first domino has fallen.

Yeah, but when he does it, it's ok.

You gotta be blasted to survive in this administration. In his first sober moment, he'll wonder if he just woke from a bad dream.

All of them are rigging their systems. Orban might be the toughest to get rid of. It will take an overwhelming loss to register. Once that domino falls, Agent Krasnov will be on shakier ground. Putin will be handled by Ukraine. That's my hope, anyway.

God, I hope so!

Trolls and scams are everywhere and on every platform. Of course, I expect Bluesky to do what they can to keep them out. Ultimately, though, I'm responsible for guarding my own safety.

I would love for it to be performed several places around the world. Maybe Hungary this weekend, and at the Kennedy Center this spring.

I think it should be mostly gone by Sunday.

The bully knocks his victim to the ground, laughing in derision. He thinks he has achieved dominance. The victim eventually gets up, unobserved, plotting his revenge. As much as I think the Iranian regime is evil, I know how I would feel in this situation. So, yeah, I'm a bit terrified, too.

The stubble of winter, anxiously awaiting spring. 4/5/26.

That wasn't a screech owl you heard.

I sing it often at karaoke.

I would say #6 is the one that stands out for me, although I think they could all apply. You seem to be someone who loves life.

An L&N train? My dad and grandfather worked for the Monon in Indiana, which was absorbed by the L&N my dad's last couple of years.

Please don't be upset when I do not heed.

I feel like the alternatives to democracy are worse. Sometimes, when a nation gets too arrogant, it needs to suffer consequences to bring it back into line. Suffering can bring humility and unity back to a nation that has lost its way.

And thank you for being here. You are part of the day's sunshine.
