Hey, we're back up!
Right now we're 65.64% funded for the month - can we try to move that needle a bit to show the newcomers how we do things around here?
Punch that green HELP US link in the lower right and do what you can, while you can, for as long as you can.
Peace out friends!

#SussexSquad I just want to highlight World Central Kitchen again. They are doing amazing work worldwide #ServiceIsUniversal
It is one way to unlock your creativity!
Is it just me, or does this look like a mirror, a bunch of blow, and a straw?
Grey, chill and rainy. I give in more anymore. I just let myself sieze up and don't accomplish anything. Like a vacation I don't enjoy, but I don't fight off. Generalized depression after all these politically shitty last few years. And everything that's come with. Years of working for "better" hasn't seemed to help. /sigh
The sun and warmth will return.
Fair weather fighter, I guess.
That's it. Elon is driving folx to the new CommonGround.social Wow, looks great. See ya later @th3j35t3r!

I remember on joining CoSo long ago I could see the number of members, my "number" and other metrics. I can only find the last 24 hours metrics right now, even after changing the date spread. Interested in seeing site growth over time.
What's everyone's take on Telegram? I had gotten everyone in my close politics group onto Signal, but for my everyday, I'm Google Fi and Messages. Getting to the point I don't care about my personal privacy - as much.
The flu kills around 30,000 Americans every year. Many are elderly. Get your flu shots folks. Don't risk dying and losing your lifetime appointment.
Feliz Nuevo Año fellow Coso-nauts. I made it to midnight last night. First time in years. Enjoyed the small town celebration 🎉 then straight home to bed...after a shot and a puff for good measure. 😜

Remember the wind and temp globe?
You can also turn on the space layer to see where the northern lights are showing. Coolio.

How Worker Solidarity Protects What’s Left of the Middle Class
By Tom Conway
Workers throughout the country put their lives on the line and worked exhausting amounts of overtime to keep factories operating during the pandemic.
Despite those sacrifices, however, companies doubled down on greed.
That’s forced workers into a wave of strikes around the country and underscored the power of solidarity in holding employers accountable.

In PR I can get this small apt sized gas (propane) stove for $170. Search for something similar in the US mainland (nat gas) and it's $500-1000 or more. What gives?
Good morning 'nauts. View from dinner at sunset last night. Prediction of several inches of snow to arrive back at the house. Got out just in time, leaving the shoveling to the new traveling nurse tenant for the next couple months or so. New adventure awaits. I've always been bi-located. But now it's going to be a warm place instead of 2 mountain places.

@kel I hope you've booked therapy for the kids. 😜
Finally figured out where I knew Mike "Pillow Guy" Lindell from - He's actually the famous Tony Clifton.
