Good morning all!
She found something nice and stinky to roll in and had to have a bath.
Now she's DRAMATIZED.

Alright. My Labor on labor day. A few scattered clouds and doing most my work sitting in a chair under an umbrella 🏖️ helped me not expire from heat exhaustion. Now I have 2 more 45° braces to fit, some long timber-loks to secure them, and the 2 sides are ready to raise tomorrow. Brace and square it up, add cross-beams, rafters, roof sheathing, and Bob's your uncle! Pergola.

Use those #hashtags folks. There's a lot more #politics on here than there used to be.

Personally, I have a politics column, but some folks wish to be here without that, and filter it. Can't filter if it's not tagged.

Now I do have a possible solution - but of course it's more work for @th3j35t3r to code something. A prompt before posting that does a dropdown pick list of maybe the top 5 hashtags - so you are encouraged (but not prohibited) to tag before posting?

Love to all!🤟

Anyone have any insight into the Chilean constitutional reform they just voted against?

Seems it was too left-egalitarian. Equality for indigenous peoples and environment, etc.

Alright. After a week of trying to figure out how to get a permit and finding that it was going to cost me 2x $ the materials, and probably weeks if not more, I'm just going to build it.

A couple of weeks ago someone from the government had reported how the permit process here was so complicated and expensive that half of the buildings on the island are built without permits, leading to problems after hurricanes and earthquakes. I'm just going to lean into that. Ask for forgiveness right?

There's always that moment standing in the corner of the kitchen to make #coffee. Trying to put together four steps that it takes to do it in the right order. Put water in the kettle. Push the button. Put coffee in the press. Pour water.

Ooft!
Stayed up late, just now heading for #coffee ☕🙂
Good morning all!

"Good manners is something they've never suffered from."

Good speech, hope he keeps up this attitude.

Alright - Good Morning all! I'm headed for the 2nd cuppa #coffee. Got to get some work done on the pergola -- waiting to see if a permit is even possible here - might take weeks. Not gonna work for me. Going to follow the principle from Field of Dreams. "If you build it, they will come."

Avocado 🥑 toast and jelly?

🤷 Works for me.

I think it's as deep as this, and more. Much, much more. #politics #treason

"After all, it’s not like we’ve never had a coup attempt before in this country: wealthy industrialists tried to kidnap or kill President Franklin Roosevelt 91 years ago and turn America into an Italian/German-style fascist state “friendly to capitalism.” Not a single one of those conspirators were ever arrested or tried; why not try again?"

Ooooh, dragon fruit!
First time. Yummy.
Kind of kiwi-like.
Lots of tiny seeds crunch right up.
I'm sure it's some kind of superfood.
And my fabric and dye friend wants the skins for natural dye.

Artemis scrubbed for today.

Mmmm! #coffee and flan for breakfast.
Flan is breakfast, right?

Good Monday all! Here's hoping you have a week filled with joy and good works. Time for #coffee .
