We haven't begun to see the reign of terror that the Miller Trump Facsist Syndicate has in store for America

[Botany]

Murdering American Citizens in Minneapolis, the armed robbery of Venezuelan oil from the people
of Venezuela, the covering up of the Epstein/Putin/Musk/Trump international child sex trafficking/black
mail/kidnapping/extortion/disinformation/kompramat gathering/bank fraud/murder/election rigging/
generationally long organized crime empire, tearing down the White House, openly racist, corrupt grifting,
and trying to hide Trump’s dementia ring. Is all here but it is going to get worse.

Trump and his Facsist Thugs are working on building thousands and thousands of prison cells for
people who as of yet haven’t been charged with any crime, been arrested, or even have a history of
criminal behavior, and yet they are building jail cells for them and some of us right now because not
only are they brown but they and we have committed the crimes of voting against Trump, speaking
out against the Putin-Trump agenda, and standing up for democracy.

Btw totally off topic but with all the snow melting and the rain wearing house slippers when taking
my Labrador for a walk probably wasn’t a good choice. A hot shower, coffee, and a change of clothes
is my next move.

1. Off topic response...

🥾🥾 These boots are made for walkin' 🐕

2. Hey I was feeling lazy.

Although cold wet water on your feet is both cold and wet but it lets you know
you are alive.

3. Love it!

The list of hell and the lab walking in snow.
Great post. I wear goose down booties all over my yard with my lab and the chuck it ball. I beer known to walk in the snow in them as well. But they are water resistant. Rubber soles, rip stop outsides.

[Botany]

4. House slippers work if there is just a little water or snow underfoot but when the water is

> 1/4 of an inch you are going to get wet. They work O.K. for a little bit when it cold enough the snow
is still frozen but we had about 15” of snow melting and it has been raining since 6 AM so some
the sidewalks has puddles of water that are > 2” deep.

5. Experienced both situations

But the bootie's and slippers have no grip so ass busting can happen with the solid snow. Been there too. But the labs gotta get out. And it’s a bitch to boot up with gaiters. And the excited lab wants to jump and play and knock ya down too. Then ya wallow around in the snow with em. And it is all fun as hell.

6. Uggs for me.

They turn me into an all-terrain vehicle.

7. 😁

I have put crocks in 4 wheel, but what a let down. May as well be riding in rims.
Happy Lab and snow time to you. Please send some snow to WNC. Climate is robbing my XC skiing on the Blue Ridge with lab number 7.

9. If you like X-country skiing if the conditions

are right New Germany State Park in Western Maryland is heaven and even
without snow the cabins are great. No
TV, no cell phone service, and the cabins
have American Chestnut paneling that
is exquisite. And sometimes the quiet is
magical.

11. Thank you

I passionately love XC. The only skiing I do. Been threatening to go somewhere to experience exactly what you describe for a long time. Recovering from Achilles surgery so this year is out. But I will definitely research your recommendation and out if too of my bucket. Thank you so much.
Castenea dentata.know it well. Taught Forest Management 30 years. What a magnificent species.

15. The loss of the American Chestnut I think was one of the major reasons we lost the Passenger Pigeon

So much of its life cycle was dependent on the Chestnut for insects for their young and the fruits
to eat @ other times of the year. Thank you American Nursery Industry for importing the Chinese
Chestnut.

New Germany has some wicked hills to climb and or ski down along with some more flat land
skiing too. And the rest of the park is awesome with lots to see and do around the area too.
Just remember to bring your own fry pans. The pans provided in the cabins are brutal.

8. Does your lab not normally wear house slippers on a walk?

[Figarosmom]

10. Yeah i wore slippers

To take out the garbage. They are now laying on top of the heat register drying.

12. That's not burning coal you smell

The push for coal is to cover for incinerators

13. The humiliation of America by Donald J. Trump!

Ali Velshi knocked it out of the park this morning. He compares everything going on in America to Turkmenistan's Saparmurat Niyazov, from his gold obsession to his need to place his name on everything. Niyazov even named the days of the week after himself and his family. America now has the Trump Class battleships, the F47 fighter jets, and the Trump Gold Card. When Niyazov finally died in 2006 at the age of 66, Turkmenistan removed every memory of him, and for this very reason Trump cannot allow the Democrats to ever take power again. Trump is replacing America with himself.

14. A positive shift is that warehouse owners are cancelling plans w/DHS...

A Canadian company backed out of selling a huge warehouse to DHS in Virginia. A deal for a warehouse in Oklahoma City was cancelled after public outcry. A few more, even in Texas, are meeting with opposition and negotiations are stalled. Whether it's local opposition, wanting to be on the right side of history, and/or what's ultimately in their financial interest, this isn't the slam dunk many of us -- and no doubt the regime -- thought it would be. The public outcry is making an impact. There's also the "not in my backyard" effect, even in red states.
