Spring is here! And with it flying. My goal is always 365 flight a year (1 flight is 1 battery). A little short in '24 cuz Dec was garbage here in SE MN. If i get in 7 today that will only put me at 28 flights so far this year - better get flying!

People need to understand what this budget the Republicans have proposed for the long term would mean in their everyday lives.

So what are they using this Medicaid cut money for? They're using this to give tax cuts to a bunch of billionaires.

I left and returned. "Nonplussed" is a word, right?

I'm ready for my 2nd cup of coffee. I'm being told "no". Happy Caturday.

Republican politicians passed a bill to defund Medicare / Medicaid by hundreds of billions of dollars.

But don't worry - they'll keep their sweet taxpayer-funded health coverage. And GOP Sugar Daddy Elon Musk will get his tax cuts…

Finally getting around to repairing a not insignificant mishap from spring 2023. Really want to get her back in the air this year.

Got 'em! 6th (and maybe final ☹️) time for me, over a span of 39 years. 1986 with Tom Petty was #1. Not a lot, I know, but there's a lot of life lived in there. #dylan

These people are not serious, and I don't mean they're joking, I mean they shouldn't be taken seriously and they're not serious about governing. Mike Collins shouldn't be leading a sing-a-long at a 4th of July picnic, much less leading any aspect of this (or any) country.

Maddie, 17, nearing the end, but still loving her cottage cheese juice.

Happy Caturday.

Today's RC build

Dreamboat. 46 inch (1.17 m). Short kit. Wonderful flier. Takes off and "lands" so easy.

RC aircraft grps on FB are a bit toxic, nonexistent elsewhere save for dedicated sites. Trying to foster RC flying interest here. I'll occasionally post pics of my aircraft and updates on what I'm building.

Today, Comet by Old School model works. #rcaircraft #rcairplane #rcflight #balsa #rcmodel

We have 5 cats. Here are the two that went out (briefly) this morning only to discover it's 5 degrees F (-15 C) outside. The black one is the new little brother. I'm nervously waiting for the calico to discover he's there and lose her shit. #cats
