Sounds like Ukraine is going to do a deal with Trump for minerals.

I’m thinking that nobody will mine, refine and ship minerals out of Ukraine if Russia is still bombing and invading Ukraine and that Ukraine is banking on that.

It looks like Dave Winer has cooked up something new called WordLand. I’m not sure I understand it, it’s either a new way to post to Wordpress.com (maybe Wordpress.org), it uses RSS (yea!), and may also be a social network. I’m not clear on any of that, but we’ll see.

According to our local (paywalled) paper a whole bunch of drive-thru only coffee chain stores are going to be opening around here. This when Starbucks has closed the indoor parts of several local stores 4 drive-thru only. I just make my coffee at home.

I had this thought upon waking in the middle of the night: with climate change penguins could be moving their range steadily North until they finally meet up with parrots and then what will happen?

I’m hoping that reports of Zelensky signing a mineral deal with the US because of coercion are not true. Don’t trust anything Trump says or promises. Trump will just transfer those mineral rights to Russia and his master Putin. Work a mineral deal with the Europeans instead, non-transferable.

I bet Trump walks around with a thick pad of Presidential Pardon Slips to hand out.

I made one of those profile pages you put in your bio at Linktr.ee. It was easy and got the job done. I doubt there is any privacy but I’m long past expecting that. I needed this as my membership in some social networks might shift around suddenly.

I just learned two elderly friends of mine are down with respiratory illnesses. Time to get some new surgical masks out from my supply and start wearing them again.

I should say something profound but I’m all out. So here watch this.

Canadians, it might be a good idea to NOT vacation in or visit the USA this year. Probably for the next four years. Try Europe instead. We love you and we’ll let you know if/when it’s safe to come back.

It’s like we’ve all been given a 4 year prison sentence, without parole, for a crime we did not commit.

I got to hand it to The Onion. When Trump won I thought reality would get so strange The Onion would not be able to top it, or be at a loss for words. But the Onion is keeping up just fine and I’m in awe.

It is now apparent that the President of the US, Donald Trump, is completely under the influence of Russia’s Putin. From Trump’s words I can draw no other conclusion. Trump’s treatment of President Zelensky and Ukraine is disgraceful.

All of Trump’s presidential decrees will be printed in Comic Sans, by decree.

The biggest bunch of incompetent weirdos are in charge being led by President Mush and Trump.

If HR gets taken over by AI that means you could get fired by Clippy.

Well per PC Mag: MapQuest Lets You Name The Gulf of Mexico Whatever You Want. Good for MapQuest for seeing an opportunity for some publicity, plus not caving in.

Thought, this is probably not a good time to fly. Take Amtrak or drive instead.

Are AOC, Pete Buttigieg, Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders the only ones putting up any resistance to TrumpMushVance? Just curious.
