I would love to see congresspeople start to get elected running on a campaign to tax churches and other fake nonprofit organizations. I'm not sure if it's possible though and until that starts happening I worry that just calling for it to happen is one of those things that makes people think anything they think of is possible to happen if "Democrats just cared".

@Edelruth @pg1958 I have no intention of protesting the election. But I'm going to protest and resist the fascist who was legally (tragically) elected.

Will I do it at the inauguration? I'm not sure. My reservation is completely based on *why* I would protest him in the first place: they're going to take names at *minimum* of who is there.

If people go they should assume they'll be treated as a threat.

Friday ice update - #Arctic sea ice extent is currently the *lowest* on record (JAXA data)...

• about 600,000 km² below the 2010s mean
• about 1,140,000 km² below the 2000s mean
• about 1,690,000 km² below the 1990s mean
• about 2,110,000 km² below the 1980s mean

Plots: https://zacklabe.com/arctic-sea-ice-extentconcentration/
Line graph time series of 2024's daily Arctic sea ice extent compared to decadal averages from the 1980s to the 2010s. The decadal averages are shown with different colored lines with white for the 1980s, green for the 1990s, blue for the 2000s, and purple for the 2010s. Thin white lines are also shown for each year from 2002 to 2022. 2024 is shown with a thick gold line. There is a long-term decreasing trend in ice extent for every day of the year shown on this graph between October and January by looking at the decadal average line positions.

TX Rep Kay Granger, a long-serving Republican & influential figure in Congress, is facing questions about her ability to serve effectively amid allegations that she's been living in a memory care & assisted living facility since July -raises concerns about leadership transparency & accountability.

Critics argue that the lack of transparency undermines public trust.

If she were a Democrat, Republicans would be demanding her resignation.

Why are there so many bonker stair renovations out there?! Some poor souls are being paid to build these.
So photo of a red and white painted kitchen that has stairs integrated into the smooth countertop. You can see a fridge, a bar space, and an oven in the background lit up with track lighting. A bar stool sits next to the bottom part of the stairs, and a few plants have been placed on the stair (where you step) as decoration next to where you would stand by the kitchen sink... centimeters away.

I will tell you my rule. Talk about those subjects you have had long in your mind, and listen to what others say about subjects you have studied but recently. Knowledge and timber shouldn’t be much used till they are seasoned.

Good morning!

We ended up with about an inch of snow on the grassy areas and the trees. The road and the sidewalks looked clear, so I decided to go out on my early-morning walk.

Mistake. The road and the walks had black ice. So I turned around and came back inside. I really can't risk a fall. The ice will melt wherever the sun hits it as the day goes on, even though the temperatures are not supposed to get above freezing. And then we go into the deep freeze for a couple of days. I probably won't be walking for a while.

The good news is that I'll have plenty of time to write and try to get my WIP in shape to send out to a reader for a Christmas present.

Happy solstice, everyone, and have a good one.
