I believe a boycott of the Kennedy Center is in order. Don’t attend shows until big orange leaves the board.

Was on a flight a few months ago, and when we landed, no clapping - dead quiet. Out of the silence, I heard a, what must have been, six year old shout really loudly "WE DID IT!".

People of the land.

“Too many,” or is “far to many” a new phrase that the younger folk are using? I’m trying to keep up with the changes to language.

Exactly - will always fail.

Never forget: Charles Logan died a hero in Cliffhanger.

In other news, leopard populations are currently in decline due to overeating. Their traditional diet of faces has seen a rapid increase, leading to over-abundance. Leopards have shown to not control food intake as well as many other big cat species, as a means for surviving through frequent lean periods in their food sources.

Something for everyone then. I was gonna say Seattle is the only one on there that sounds absolutely god awful.

Never let Mitch McConnell off the hook, despite how he now says he doesn't like what Trump his doing. Since this all started, he has done nothing but enable him and has done as much as anyone to put the guy in power. Same to be said of Graham. When this all goes terribly wrong(er), none of us should, for a second, allow them a pass on any future backtracking or apologizing that they might do.

Were the ICE folks wearing leopard skin jackets?

Should probably start celebrating at the end of every month we haven’t blown ourselves up.

Good write up on the ongoing debate over harness protectors (especially about the effectiveness of newer materials like koroyd).

Been enjoying these hike and fly videos in the UK by one of the FlyBubble gang. He’s done Scottish highlands and North Wales - very chill and well produced and good mix of hiking, nature, light alpinism, and PG with light gear.

 

Is “maintaining the integrity of the presidential election” even fall under the responsibilities of POTUS? Wouldn’t that be more of the judicial’s or legislative’s wheelhouse? If it’s not, doesn’t that completely invalidate Trump’s argument that he was acting under his presidential duties?

Think this qualifies as the scariest speedflying video I've seen yet.

 

Great video on how to fix a bunch of zipper issues. Handy to have on hand for harness, rucksack, and concertina bag zipper problems. Implemented one of the fixes in the video (took less than a minute) and that fix is still going strong after a year.

 

Final results in for the red rocks wide open.

 

For personal projects, I've favored gandi.net for many years, but I'm trying to get a few candidates together for the organization I work for. Not a fan of GoDaddy, NetworkSolutions, or many of the all-in-one web host / registrar / app hosting / whateverelse sites.

Hoping there are a few modern alternatives out there that I haven't seen yet. We had all of our domains on Google Domains, but since they got bought by Squarespace, I'm surveying our options.
