Interesting note to remember and understand when so many want to jump to other services... Sad to see it go but it is at the very least an understanding of why things are the way they are in the social app space:

More snow!


It started coming down early afternoon. A couple of inches more expected.

"I don't really use TikTok that much, but I find it fascinating that our government is on the verge of banning an app for national security reasons that are still unclear in the same week that Meta, the largest social media company, says it's now fine to hate LGBTQ people and call us mentally ill."

VULTURE

I had walked since dawn and lay down to rest on a bare hillside
Above the ocean. I saw through half-shut eyelids a vulture wheeling high up in heaven,
And presently it passed again, but lower and nearer, its orbit narrowing, I understood then
That I was under inspection. I lay death-still and heard the flight-feathers
Whistle above me and make their circle and come nearer.
I could see the naked red head between the great wings
Bear downward staring. I said, “My dear bird, we are wasting time here.
These old bones will still work; they are not for you.”
But how beautiful he looked, gliding down
On those great sails; how beautiful he looked, veering
away in the sea-light over the precipice. I tell you solemnly
That I was sorry to have disappointed him. To be eaten
by that beak and become part of him, to share those wings and those eyes—
What a sublime end of one’s body, what an enskyment;
What a life after death.

      - Robinson Jeffers



A Dawn In the Mountains


A flush the color of Japanese egg yolks marked the tips of the peaks, changing frigid becomes celebration.

I'm starting to get the hang of things here. Mobile site is quite user friendly so that's good. Still not sure how to remove the dislike option from my posts (I don't care if someone doesn't like what I say -lol!) or how to create different types of friends lists. Eventually I'll work that out. Now if I can convince my FB friends that it's worth the learning curve to try it out over here. 🙌
