Good morning, CoSo fam! Sunrise here in Kilmacanogue before she tucked herself back up into her cloudy sky blanket. ❤️🌄❤️
May we keep CoSo’s heartbeat pumping by everyone of us going PRO for the small cost of $4.99 per month ❤️ https://help.counter.social/en/latest/pro-features.html
/nosanitize

Even though I went Pro a month after I joined, I like to chip in a little extra when I can. And it sure warms my heart to see others donating! ❤️

Nobody is made of money. If you just can't afford to donate or go Pro, we all understand. We're happy to have you here!

But our host has been paying out of pocket to keep this ship afloat.

Every drop in the bucket helps! What would you pay for a latte, and what do you get from CoSo?

This is a great time to chip in!

#Future

Library of Possibilities.

“This is my latest experiential futures project: a series of books from the future, each inspired by the work and interests of a different NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory scientist or engineer, made tangible, and smuggled on to public library shelves in Los Angeles for readers to discover.”

Sometimes you read something that just kinda nails it.

"If you doubt Trump's dictatorial tendencies, note the number of times he says people shouldn't be allowed to do things. If he becomes president again, he will try to make sure they aren't allowed." - random comment on a Yahoo story on Trump whining about Harris's video message at the Al Smith dinner.

Pro-Trump dark money network tied to Elon Musk behind fake pro-Harris campaign scheme
http://www.opensecrets.org/news/2024/10/pro-trump-dark-money-network-tied-to-elon-musk-behind-fake-pro-harris-campaign-scheme/

In case you were not sure

Tim Sheehy who is running for a hotly contested Senate Seat in Colorado against Jon Tester. Claimed to have gotten a bullet left in his arm from combat while serving in Afghanistan

THe Park Ranger who responded to the incident comes forward. Sheehy got the wound after an accidental discharge of a firearm on park grounds. Not in combat, and not in the military

Totally on brand for a GOP candidate to openly lie

"This is Trump's America, where people who are trying to participate in democracy and serve the public become targets for threats and violence if it serves Trump to call his mob on them. First it was public health experts during a pandemic, then poll workers during an election. Now it's FEMA workers following two devastating hurricanes."
