Nearly 125 years of history demolished. The East Wing served as the office for the First Lady and her staff among other functions since its construction in 1902.

Absolutely crushing to see this happen.

Here’s some more information about the Navigator Copernico:

Carnival Legend paying us a visit today. ~2,100 passengers.

It’s a beautiful sunny day in Hilo for the tourists.

You can also see one of our favorite tankers in the foreground: The Navigator Copernico, a large orange LPG tanker.

I hopped on a satellite to show how they’re positioned in port.

Here is the Wikipedia page if you’re interested in the ship or its history.

The Celebrity Edge, a large Celebrity Cruises Ship is in Hilo visiting for the day.

It’s part of the Royal Caribbean Group and can carry 2,900 passengers.

The FruitJam looks like a lot of fun. I've had it on my notify list for a while. Hoping to snag one from the next batch.

I plan on using it for a CP/M emulator, and maybe some PyDOS /PyBASIC fun. The RP2350 has a lot of potential. So happy to see products like this taking full advantage of it. ❤️

The League of Women Voters has not given up on Democracy.

Wow! You go Emily! My surgeons are in SF also. There are some good docs there.

Best wishes on your consults.

before trans participation in sports was banned in utah in 2022:

• 4/75,000 school athletes were trans

• 1/75,000 was a trans girl

not that it’s ever been about sports or numbers and not that the number matters even a little but tuberville’s bullshit is *so* outrageously untrue.

I have never been more embarrassed about being from the United States. 😔

Goodbye Radiance! Come again! 🤙

Really frustrated with CVS today. They’re nearly 3 weeks behind on filling my prescription.

If this has anything to do with the stupid EO’s coming out of Washington DC I’ll just scream. It’s a 90 day supply and I’m already rationing. 😭

Here’s more about the ship:

Carnival Radiance is visiting our little port today. Nearly 3000 passengers! Not sure exactly how many are onboard today but I’m sure our markets and sightseeing spots are busy today.

You got this! ❤️

Best advice I have is to use a different needle for drawing and injecting. I use a 21G to draw, and a 27G to inject. Subcutaneous is best, IM hurts and isn’t necessary.

Tiny gauge needles like 27G are nearly painless, but a little slower to inject thicker caster oil based Estradiol Valerate.

Injections are so much better than the pills. It does start out slow though, especially if you’re a needle-phobic person like me! It used to take me a good 25 minutes to do my shot. Now I’m consistently under 10 from start to finish.

Here’s the Wikipedia link to read more about the ship:

The MS Koningsdam is visiting us today. This is one of the larger Holland America Line ships with a passenger capacity of 2,650!

Super Yacht Liva°, Hawaiian harbor pilot boat, and Norwegian Pride of America navigating our narrow harbor. Would not want to be the pilot this evening. That’s a lot of expensive boat going on there!

They pass close enough to see the gold fittings on the yacht’s rigging.

And… everyone makes it! 🥳

Under settings, you don’t have the Experimental option ticked, do you? That added lots of trash to my following feed.

Identified!

It’s the Liva°, a 118 meter long super yacht owned by Stephen Orenstein, a billionaire born in Germany and now a US citizen residing in the city of Dubai.

Big (Billionaire-sized) Yacht has been hanging out in Hilo Hawaii all day. Looks familiar, I think it was here a while back.

Can anyone identify it? It has the tracking information hidden from Marine Tracking, so I can’t ID it.
