I’m pretty much off this platform except for visiting to see what the usual suspects might be up to with their 🎭, 🤡ishness, 🪵rolling, and such. Still check DMs even though they’re even less secure now. I’m over on 🟦✈️ as johngunn. Mixed feelings there so far. ✊🏼 either way.
On July 10, 1896, the IBEW's first president Henry Miller died on the job working as a lineworker. Today -- National Lineworker Appreciation Day -- we celebrate all lineworkers for all they do for our communities. #ThankaLineworker
According to the CDC, feeling connected to school, community & other social institutions can help prevent suicide. It is also important for our communities to have high quality physical & behavioral healthcare.

Even when it doesn’t feel like it, hope is within reach. If you're struggling with thoughts of suicide, reach out to a trusted friend or family member. You’re never alone—help is just a call or text away at 988.

I've sometimes been asked why a lot of conservative takes on the left tend to be very bad. At least part of the answer is that engaging in a serious critique of Marx, Foucault, etc runs the risk of legitimizing them by suggesting they offer reasonable arguments...
@SunnySouthAL@AlfaFarmers My guess is that it’ll be his antitrust tendencies that’ll ultimately derail Gaetz. Tommy, bless his heart, is NEVER going to learn to check in with those who put him in before flapping his gums. I’m guessing his staffers have just given up on the dolt. https://t.co/cDgmkoQnZz
Got the 16’ log from top milled up. Decided to cut ‘em 2 1/4 thick. Couple 14” wide. Five 8” ones. Wood wasn’t at all blue and only a little dark in places. It seems quite solid, fairly good grain, etc. 😅
Nibbled some on ‘Pinezilla’ this afternoon. Ran dry up so had to leave a few for later. Usually try to avoid hangers but there’s a water oak that might be worth keeping if I can limit carnage. 🤞 Too big to cut with handsaw on belt and too tired to climb again after refueling. 😮💨
Pinezilla was 40” at the base. Went as I’d hoped. 😮💨 Should have at least some room for 16’ slabs or something out of lower log. Can perhaps get something useful out of rest even though it was standing dead. As big as it was and with tight outer rings it still has some moisture.
I'm guessing that even with the likes of Poor and innumerable other professional 'conservatives' in the traces on various platforms to tell 'the base' what to believe, these next few years will have plenty of contradictions and inconsistencies for folks to ponder. Hang in there!
Something about ESG 'ruling the roots" of corporations and how Keynesian economic policy was rejected? And how 'the left' was making inroads in our churches. On the latter, there's been a steady growth in the 'nones' with most mainstream denominations ... https://t.co/OZbTJgZv65
... my way of describing things more than it's Poor's. As for how the 'conventional wisdom' was off, part of the problem there is that you risk getting yanked off the boob tube or a paper's pages if you do much of capitalist critique, question the blob, ... Conventional is safe.
