Professor Emeritus (Latin for not no more) of politics at Pacific Lutheran. 39 years there, 4 at U of Montana before that. Teaching tai chi these days, including sword and cane. Appreciative of the many smart and caring people on BlueSky.

Yeah, get into that…. Frank Sinatra’s son defended his position by saying I believe my sister. OK. There are about 4 people who really know what went on, none of them are on Bluesky.

Dang. I really dislike it when people of my age group kick it. She was just 3 years older than my dearest. But, life does this. At times it’s a stinky deal, but, it’s just the deal.

USSC has a majority of political animals, determined to enact their theocracy. The Court has no legitimacy, they have so obviously thrown it away. Time to dramatically redo the Court, impeach the political animals, term limits, just start over.

Surveillance society expands…
“…why this can happen in New Yor….. Unlike Illinois’s Biometric Information Privacy Act … New York has no comparable statute regulating employer use of biometric data.

It’s Portland. A lotta weirdos there. Fun town, especially now that their ill-fated experiment with ignoring open air drug use is over. People read a lot there.

Watch this while eating your cheerios
A sperm whale was found munching on a giant squid. I had no idea it was such a messy meal, but I should have figured that was so — all those tentacles flailing about.
