  6. GOP: "Liberals are being paid (to protest against us)!"

    Also GOP: "Conservatives are being paid (to cheer us on)!"

    Your taxpayer dollars at work,
    Going directly to some Nazi.
    Eight million a year. And,
    No, you can't have health insurance.

  10. “Melting Snowflake”

    It’s hard to preserve something as ephemeral as a snowflake, as seen in this microphotograph by Michael Robert Peres. Despite the old adage, it is possible to make identical snowflakes, but it requires mirroring the freezing conditions exactly, including both temperature and humidity. Here, the snowflake’s crystalline structure survives as a ghost in a melting droplet. (Image credit: M. Peres; via Ars Technica)

  12. Happy #Wednesday afternoon from the #Northland!

    The #cool and #breezy side of fall #continues for everyone.

    The #showers have persisted as well, especially along the South Shore region. A few spots may even see some #snowflakes mix in at times.

  14. Tuning in to #gbnews to watch coverage of #kneecap #glasto25 set. Treated to a gloriously comic display of wobbly lower lips and snowflakery as guests provide a safe space for each other's delicate and bruised feelings. At the core of their political #grievance appears to be that free speech is good but not when the speech is so naughty and hurty that it makes them want to cry.

  15. Snowflakes

    Sometimes we go to estate sales to see what we can find. Last year, I was in the basement of a home on the far West side, and I found a tall stack of thick three-ring binders. These were filled with cut, paper snowflakes pasted onto black construction paper. That whole basement, actually, was testament to a person self-medicating through craft. There were piles of materials and supplies on shelves lining the walls. I knew nothing about the two men who had lived in this home except what you could glean of their interests and taste. Estate sales are interesting that way. They liked Lena Horne and The Frugal Gourmet, they’d travelled in Italy… but what can that really tell you? These snowflakes say more.

    I was tempted, of course, to buy one of the binders. They were a dollar, which would have been a bargain considering the work that went into 100s of snowflakes. But Linda was right to remind me that our house isn’t infinitely accommodating. So, I took some quick snapshots instead. It occurred to me to share them. I’m filing this post under sustainability because it’s about personal resources and resilience.

  16. WEEKEND SNOWFALL TOTALS:

    The #snow #showers across the #Northland since Valentine's Day have contained big and fluffy #snowflakes.

    Thanks to a northeast #breeze creating #lakeeffect bands, and you get some decent #snowfall totals. Some spots saw 9 to 12 inches of #accumulation.

    More lake effect snow showers continue for the #UpperPeninsula through Monday.
