Good morning. I’m back to drinking my go-to coffee, Aldi’s house brand ground dark French Roast. Lots of deep smokey flavor and priced lower than most good coffees. Added 4 sites to the directory this morning, one being a submission and the others from my magic bucket ‘o links. Onward.

Good morning. I’m drinking the last of that cheap store brand coffee I’ve been whining about. Tomorrow I will upgrade so stay tuned. Over at the directory I added 4 new listings from my temporary bookmark holding bucket o’ links I’m always gathering. Now on to timelines.

Good morning. Drinking my dark French Roast coffee. It’s still the cheap grocery store brand. It’s a shame it’s not better because the fine print on the label says the coffee roaster is within 20 miles of me.

Checked a couple of timelines. No screaming about eggs shortages so that’s good.

I’m enjoying playing with Feedland. I’m kinda in between stages: First, was to find feeds already in the system that I wanted to follow; Second, has been slowly adding new feeds as I find them. The trick is to not duplicate what I have on social media timelines and also, don’t turn this “river” of posts into a big fire hose that I have no chance of keeping up with. So far it’s going good. I continue to look for interesting feeds to follow.

Good morning. I’m drinking first coffee. Unfortunately it’s not the greatest. It’s an inexpensive local grocery store house brand that is not terrible but lacks the depth of flavor and smokiness I prefer. Still it’s drinkable so onward.

Trump is coming for our french fries! Trump is starting a french fry war. Trump is attacking his base.

Quick, how fast can we switch back to beef fat?

Math is woke.

Science is woke.

Germs are woke.

Empathy is a weakness.

Decency is a weakness.

Women must be controlled.

Trans people must be controlled.

Renewable energy is woke.

History is woke.

Law and Order is woke.

It’s somebody else’s fault.

Birds are not real.

Hmm, The Trump tariff auto sales rush is on is probably a goodish thing. Not scientific, but my general impression in driving by local dealerships is they were packed with cars and could stand to sell a few.

Now Trump is going after the Federal Reserve’s Independence and Chairman Powell. We all knew it would happen sooner or later and Trump has dug the economy into such a deep grave he now wants the Fed to bail him out and is upset when the Fed won’t play along.

I just looked online at vehicles from Ford, Chevy, Toyota, KIA, Nissan and Mazda. No trucks tho. Boring. They all look alike. Over wind tunneled, for short people and ugly. Real ugly. Everything is a SUV. Only the KIA Soul and the Ford Bronco looked mildly interesting. Design by bean counters.

Good Morning, coffee in hand and doomscrolling the news.

Women: Elon Musk wants you to have his babies.

DOGE may have let Russian hackers into US Government computers.

Trump Admin wants to kidnap American Citizens and ship them to prison in El Salvador. Without trial.

People are making Easter Egg alternatives out of marshmallows, peanut butter and by dying small potatoes.

We shall call these “Freedom Eggs” because these will free America from the Biden Chicken Overlords we have been buying eggs from for years and have been buying nothing from us in return.

It’s like we’re living in a Mad Magazine parody of the real world, only evil, cruel, mean and corrupt.
