This is the same town and county that’s under attack by ORES for almost 20,000 acres of solar complexes.

The Amish have submitted testimony, Anabaptist studies, and taken part in the ORES process to tell the state they do not want their solar industrial complexes.

New York State loves to bully the Amish. They’ve ignored their every request. The bureaucrats in Albany despise the Amish. The Amish stand for everything they hate: Christianity, rural values, living off the land, and living off grid.

We must take care of the Amish and help them stand up to New York State.

The only positive commercials she can run is she is allowing federal dollars for state programs.

There's exactly one person to blame when electricity bills go up: Donald Trump.

He’s treating our allies as enemies. And American families continue to suffer because of it.

@LegoBrewers My niece's boyfriend bought me Legos for Christmas. He could not make it. The wrapped box is still waiting for me to open it. I figured you would understand the struggle.🤣😪

@LegoBrewers Pretty, next time I make it, I will share.

I work the front desk at a small doctor’s office, and I wish people could see what happens on the other side of the phone. Every day, older patients call us confused.

They are told to use the patient portal, upload documents, check lab results online, fill out forms before the visit, and confirm everything through a link. Some of them do not know what a portal is.

Some do not have a smartphone.
Some have one, but they are afraid to click the wrong thing.
Last week, a man in his late 80s called about his test results.

He said, “Ma’am, I don’t mean to bother you, but the computer says I have a message and I don’t know how to open it.”
He sounded ashamed.
That broke my heart.

He should not have to feel ashamed for needing a human being.
Technology can be helpful. I understand that.

But when people who built this country are made to feel helpless because everything became a login and a password, we have gone too far.
Not everything needs to be an app.
Not every answer should be hidden behind a screen.

Sometimes people need a voice.
A patient person.
A real human who says, “Don’t worry, I can help you.”
Progress should not leave seniors behind.

Because one day, the world will move faster than us too.
And I hope someone is kind enough to slow down.

@saraarazi_ These little libraries are at risk. I was once a director of a small library, board members are in charge of institutions they have no idea about. Board members would give me 💩 about what the community loved.

Yesterday while I was driving down Washington County, I decided to pull into Stu-Berry Acres for the first time.

I’m glad I did.

This farmer is doing the right thing and wants someone else who will love his family’s farm like he did to buy the property.

So let’s get it sold!

We’re only going to get one chance to defend the land that feeds us. I was happy to meet Dan and even happier to post this on here today.

Farmers: selling your farms to younger buyers is a legacy that will save your land, farm, road, town, and community for decades after you’re gone.

I’ll post the property link below. It’s located in Argyle, New York.

@WallStreetApes This is a civic duty, is it inconvenient? Yes. Is it your responsibility? Yes. It is called being an American. 🦅🇺🇲🦅

@saraarazi_ About 10 years ago I gave up D&D coffee. I added the weekly amount to my Christmas club savings. It adds up.

@HistorianUSA1 Everybody who has worked in the car business has known this for at least 20 years.

🇺🇸 During World War II, American servicemen shipping out through San Francisco started a tradition at the Top of the Mark that still stands today.

A man would buy a bottle of whiskey, have a drink, then leave the rest behind the bar with a note for his unit. Anyone from the same unit who came through later could take a free shot.

The only rule: whoever finished the bottle had to buy the next one.

They called them Squadron Bottles.

Alongside the bottles sat a journal. Men left tributes, well wishes, and their names.

The custom continued through the Korean War. After the wars it slowly faded.

In 2009 a young Navy lieutenant named Mike Hall walked in, asked for the Squadron Bottle, and found none left. He bought a new one, started a fresh logbook, and brought the tradition back.

Today more than 100 Squadron Bottles sit on display at the Top of the Mark. The journals are still there too, filled with messages spanning generations.

Any service member or veteran with an ID can still walk in and take a shot from one.

@streetwize Sephora is overrated. I was excited when we had our first one also. Great for trying, then buy on line at actual distributor and lower pricing.
