Working hard, sometimes not smart. Weekends traveling to SW WI for some 180 degree mental break. #camping #IslandTime

Need to dust off my 80mm scope.

Jesus. Automated enforcement advocates really underestimate the potential for abuse with these cameras. The amount of information they collect is staggering, as is the ability to piece it all together to meticulously track individual people.

Apparently the government of the YucatΓ‘n recently erected a Poseidon statue on one of their major beaches. It’s a very heavily Mayan area, where people still pray to Chaac, the god of rainfall. They’re now being slammed with 3 hurricanes and significant flooding, leading to memes like this

Go and one day try the Portuguese food. Large group near the area of Foxborough ("Home of the Pats!") - but since RI is not that large... - can't remember what ad that was from but can't seem to forget it

Tip on the cost of what you were served. Not the what you were charged. If you BFF bartender comps a drink, include that in your tip, and do that for all service workers for everything you're served.

Drove that car for about a 1000 miles. What a tin can that was. Buzzy, noisy. Got me from A to B and back, though.

Tom the Dancing Bug from 2019, when the notion of presidential immunity was a laughably ridiculous argument made up by Trump's lawyers.

How accurate is the weather forecast in your city?

Niko Kommenda and I learned that NWS just began doing gridded assessments of forecast accuracy. We got the data and mapped of how many days into the future they get within 3Β°F of the observed high temp.

People significantly underestimate the degree to which the American constitution is now being defined by Nixon/Reagan/Bush government lawyers who disliked having to be responsive to a Democratic-controlled Congress.

Unitary executive theory is an example:

#CopaAmerica pretty bad to watch. Ref not doing great, USA asking for more calls against Uruguay.

Also Uruguay got the 'home' and not 'visitor' locker room, and the US sports press and team not happy with that.

But, the US is the visiting team in this game, so...

March 23 1933, the Enabling Act becomes law in Germany, giving the chief executive power enforce his own laws without checks and balances. The passing of the Act marked the formal transition from democratic republic to totalitarian dictatorship. 6 months later, it was a 1 party state.

The 14th Amendment says if you were involved in an insurrection you can't be president. SCOTUS said they won't allow anyone to enforce that because of reasons they made up. The Constitution doesn't say the president is immune from criminal law. SCOTUS decided he is because of reasons they made up.
