Viva Frei Day

Wassup peeps.

Just doing some good-old ruminating. Or is it obsessing... lol

-Lindy Li interview: Reading comments on yesterday's interview with Lindy, and second-guessing whether or not I was fair. I appreciate I may have been "harsh" - for some. Youngest of five and raised by a mildly strict parents, siblings that kept me checked to reality, and my father in particular wouldn't let us get away with "child-think", I am used to it. But others not so much. Harshness and fairness are not mutually exclusive, and I should probably adopt the Rogan "post and ghost" policy, but I am a glutton for self-inflicted punishment. lol

-Fake news: In other news, there is a fake news post making the rounds of a "9th circuit Appeals Judge Brown" declaring 84 Biden preemptive pardons unlawful. Our community is definitely smart enough not to fall for it, since we all know preemptive pardons are lawful and recognized, but just in case. I think there is lots of disinfo intended to catch people to discredit them, so be on the lookout. Don't trust screengrabs that you have not verified yourself.

-Elizabeth Hochul: Apparently Hochul purchased Kamala Harris' wardrobe at a discount. lol https://x.com/GovKathyHochul/status/1890175495670775913
Here she is saying she will uphold the Constitution, while Dexter Taylor rots in a state jail for peacefully exercising his 2nd Amendment rights. Last I heard, Don. Jr. had taken notice of the case, so hopefully the powers that be get something done ASAP.

-Valentines Day: IT'S VALENTINE'S DAY!!! DON'T LET ME FORGET!!!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Enjoy it. I am going to try and meditate in nature. @BillBrownII suggested I do that, and I said I would.

2 weeks ago. lol

Peace!

Ugly diving championship

There’s a Tennessee river sporting event all weekend in Chattanooga.

Yesterday, we caught the “ugly diving” competition.

I actually missed the best of the ugly dives. Here is one by wave example.

Heading to the aquarium. Ethan playing around on the rock climbing wall. Watching some wakeboarding.

This place is beautiful.

I. INTRODUCTION

A. Appearances

B. Art of the Day: Cigars, cognac, top hats, in the shadows, feeling like a secret meeting discussing who will take control of the docks, who gets the unions, and who gets the politicians. An era of real power by real men, good or otherwise.

B. Art of the Day:  Pushkin’s desk in the center of his Victorian style library where he penned great works of Russian literature, and ever since seeing his library have wanted to recreate it myself some day as a place for inspired contemplation. 

C. Wisdom of the Day: “Many agree that the worst thing that could ever happen is if Russia and China get closer.” Donald Trump. 

D. Cultural Recommendation: The Apartment, an alternative view of history akin to the film Russian Arc, tracing history through a single place, the prism of an apartment in Moscow across a century of time. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/43483939-the-apartment?
