    #Frijoles #fire near Nambe north of #SantaFe #NewMexico this afternoon. Now over 2000 acres after doubling overnight.

    Ok how about this for a science experiment? 7-10 days ago we noticed someone had thrown a bag of chips out of their car onto our property. Chips scattered near open bag. We left everything alone overnight to see what the animals / bugs would take. Over a week later, STILL ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TAKEN! 🤷‍♂️ #traderjoes #santafe #newmexico

    Oh, that sounds bad. Aren&amp;#39;t &amp;quot;reginos&amp;quot; very expensive to replace? #bluesky

    I will never not be baffled by #NewMexico drivers, men and women, old and young, who come up from behind, speeding, and without hestation glide over the double-yellow line, pass, and speed on down the road. The Age of Unaccountability touches everyone, not just oligarchs—and everyone’s loving it.

    Seen in #SantaFe #NewMexico this morning. 🤷‍♂️

    Umm… did Bluesky not pay their bill or something? Site’s unusable and the status page is banned?!

    NOW WHAT, #Bluesky Anyone else seeing this?

  • Post #1706183

    #Bluesky should have a Mastodon account, so it can monitor the thousands (millions?) of users who can&amp;#39;t use Bluesky because it&amp;#39;s down / broken / whatever. What a bunch of clowns.

    @noy There are some who would argue #Hawaii IS another country, still, and it was the US that just flat-out stole it with the backing of armed Marines in the late 1880s, and they’re still mad as hell

    Powerful, inspiring, absolutely infuriatng #documentary about a free-spirited Iranian woman running for election and winning in her village—and all the lazy-ass no-good violent patriarch dudes who will stop at nothing to prevent her from getting things done. Could be America in a generation or less. See this. #movie

    Passed by the entrance to Epstein’s NM ranch today. Guy in black, standing in front of black car behind the gate, video-recording passers-by. #epstein #newmexico

    Absolutely BLOWS MY MIND that the four-trillion-dollar #Apple corporation doesn&amp;#39;t care to fix what would have been a company-destroying bug 20yrs ago but today is considered contrary to acceptable business strategy, namely, moving one&amp;#39;s owned MP3 files from one&amp;#39;s Mac to one&amp;#39;s iPhone, which causes the iPhone&amp;#39;s music library data to be trashed. Incredible! How dare a customer not use our STREAMING service! We are sooooo forever past &amp;quot;rip mix burn...

    A high-level politician in #NewMexico told me yesterday that every time the price-per-barrel of #oil goes up by another $1, the state of New Mexico, which gets royalties on the 800+ million barrels produced annually, makes an additional $50 million. The war on Iran is fantastic for New Mexico.

    Ok well PROJECT HAIL MARY imho turned out to be a very mixed, very messy bag. I’ll put it this way: 1.0 unit of PROJECT HAIL MARY = 0.001 units of THE MARTIAN In a word: INTERFELLER. 🤷‍♂️ #movies #projecthailmary

  • Post #798589

    Project INTERFELLER. #movies #projecthailmary

    Glaring continuity error in PROJECT HAIL MARY? Gosling is at a table in a meeting. His wire-rim glasses barely dangling on one ear. He&amp;#39;s talking to the woman in charge of the PHM project. Cut to him. Her. Him. Her. Him. Her. In one of the him shots, NO GLASSES. Then, they&amp;#39;re BACK. 👀 #movies #projecthailmary

    Didn’t realize a) you can see the infamous Epstein Ranch in New Mexico right from the road and b) that on the 7000+ acre grounds there was a private airfield (duh, of course there would be, better for criming!) 🤷‍♂️ (“violaters”?) #epstein #newmexico
