Okay, so this is my first entry using the new computer, something which is going to be a learning experience. I'm still adjusting the settings. Windows 11 is different. Personalization will be interesting. As with every other time I've upgraded, certain things transfer over easily. Other? Well, I'm used to having the NYT and Washington Post in task bar, so I've got to figure out how to do that. One of the good things that happened is old... really old pictures are now available. Pictures I'd forgotten about. Like this one, taken in 2004 of me standing next to a John Deere tractor. That's right! This is what I looked like 18 years ago! Son of a bitch!
Other things were accomplished yesterday besides setting up the new computer: bread was baked, egg salad was made, my dahlias were planted. In fact, I didn't begin setting the new PC up until late afternoon.
And what about old Ronnie DeSantis trying to turn Florida into an authoritarian state? For those who didn't hear, Ronnie is making a very Putenesque move. Two voting districts that are heavily populated by black voters who vote heavily Democrat are going to be gerrymandered into non-exitance under a map he, himself is drawing up. I can only wonder how long it will be until he begins to poison his opponents because you know, he's not going to want anyone running against him. That old racism is again rearing its ugly head, and this time that evil goes by the name of DeSantis.
Death Santis is auditioning for the Repug president slot, didn't you know? The most he resembles Vlad, the better he'll look to the GQP, the land of QAnon.
ReplyDeleteAnd I would have let you ride my tractor 18 years ago, Dave. But they say is like riding a bike, right?
XOXO
He evidently doesn't know that minority group is shrinking.
DeleteAs much as I believe Flori-duh is populated by dumbasses, I can't help but wonder why they are so willing to let one man run everything, and run it into the ground.
ReplyDeleteHe only won by a small margin, and they managed to get enough Republicans into the government to give him what he wants. There may be big surprises coming in the next election.
DeleteRepublicans are very effective at getting what they want done even without a majority supporting them
DeleteI wish Democrats were as effective at helping people when they get into office.
Now all I can think about is a thick slice of fresh-baked bread and an egg salad sandwich.
ReplyDeleteBelieve me, it is sooooo tasty.
