This is such a good idea.

But also, Harold Bloom, who was not always a friend to leftists, just thought the Harry Potter books were not very good.

Downloading Godot 4 onto my desktop to start playing with video game making. (Aka, Waiting for Godot.)

Can we get some Trump “I did that” stickers for the gas pumps?

Getting some bread for group dinner!

Yeah, it’s interesting to make connections between the kind of Hollywood stars who make it as politicians and the way that politics works. Reagan was in westerns and WWII movies. Arnold was in action movies. Trump was a reality TV star.

Bricking up for the evening

Christmas Kitty! (She is not amused.)

I’m not sure if my cat is thinking about how she can enjoy this monstrosity or just chilling and loving the tunes. Hard to say.

The cat is really into the Bach organ vinyl this morning.

Getting ready

Apparently hydro excavation is a thing!

The hazards of lunch walks in the woods. (Worth it!)

Plant of the day! Mimosa! (With reflector in St. Elmo.)

There also didn’t seem to be a “no” option in any party for supporting Israel with weapons for murdering Gazans.

Bernie wasn’t selected by the party machinery even though he seemed to have the people’s support, and Kamala, as amazing as she was, wasn’t chosen by the people either.

I’m still in favor of ranked-choice voting.

I voted against Trump in both the primary and the general election in Tennessee, but there doesn’t seem to be much choice of options on the other side.

I wonder if this whole ballroom or palace thing will be Trump’s “let them eat cake” moment.

There are various schools of socialist fish

It’s either a Laurel or a Willow Oak. Not totally sure. It looks nice though!
