Last Notes npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Writing even more strongly worded letters against Genghis Khan npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo I love this! Never have I seen a cuter shadow npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo They are so LOUD! npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Oof. Two fighter jets flew over the house and scared me. Now I’m questioning my decision to take the grandsons to the air show week after next. I’ll bring headphones. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo This is your fate as an introvert with a child who’s an extrovert npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo What if you’ve been doing it for 50 years? npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Who makes fun of Danke Schoen?? They deserve what they get. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Completely agree. Here in the states it’s obvious that many on the far left hate Democrats more than Republicans. Having lofty ideals isn’t enough. You have to help make something work. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Love the colors among the green - pretty! npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo I made a baby laugh at the grocery store so I don’t need to accomplish anything else today. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo I knew we had ground nesting native bees down by the fruit trees and thought “how lucky we are!”. Went down there just now. There are a thousand or more bee holes in the ground. Now I’m a little worried there will be a bee uprising. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo The waste, pollution, superficial status-seeking, self-congratulatory sound bites and the knowledge that lots of tiny influencers are moved by it all - it’s too much to bear. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo That celebrity Blue Origin flight makes me sad on so many levels. As you approach your 70s you’re well aware you don’t have a lot of time left on the clock and sometimes that feels just fine. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo I’m going to get a Trump lapel pin, add a red clown nose and wear it everywhere npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, expressed concerns that the rates Trump announced Wednesday didn’t distinguish “between our allies and our adversaries.” Sorry. Yes they did. Our only ally now is Russia and they got no tariffs. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo He’s a puppet who doesn’t dare disagree with the emperor. They’re all pathetic. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo If you beat him you’ll be deported npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo The moon is gone! npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Ignore that troll. I blocked them. Overcooked indeed. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Recession is looming and still I cannot conjure up any sympathy for people who didn’t vote for Harris. “Sorry you don’t know how things work” is probably the best I’ll ever be able to do. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Pretty good reporting on the incident in Idaho where a woman was assaulted and detained by private security at a town hall. https://cdapress.com/news/2025/feb/23/update-on-town-hall-chaos-woman-who-was-dragged-out-speaks-police-chief-condemns-security-name-of-security-firm-confirmed/ npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo I have a strong urge to cave in the skull of the guy talking on the microphone npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Maybe this is the only way for naive people to finally learn what the GOP is all about npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Notice she says men. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo In my younger days in the early 80s I was a warehouse worker. It was pretty unusual for women at the time and upset quite a few of the men. One told me angrily that I was taking a job away from a man who needed to put food on the table. I told him that technically I was taking away the jobs of two men since I did twice as much work. #Burn npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Beware of people telling you exactly what you want to hear. That’s how Fox News works. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo You don’t npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo She’s not dead. Just resting. #Caturday npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo When Bush was President 80% of the jobs at my activity were under study for outsourcing under circular A-76. We had to compete to keep our own work. It was a massive time suck. So glad to be retired. All republicans want to outsource government. And believe me - at a much higher price. I feel sorry for every federal worker except the ones who didn’t vote for Harris. They can cram it. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo There are lots of things I don’t know. I don’t know urban slang or who many celebrities are or why they’re famous. I don’t know much about technology since 2005. My vocabulary is not large. So I read words, names and terms on Mastodon, am lost and also too apathetic to look them up. In 2025, for no reason at all other than a love of lists, I will itemize these things under the hashtag #Whatstodon? I’ll believe anything anyone wants to tell me about them. First up: npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Sometimes it’s just what you’re expecting that throws you off. I remember being in museums in Italy trying to use my middle school Spanish to decipher art descriptions in Italian and totally failing to notice there was an English translation below. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo I finally know why old people eat dinner early. It’s heartburn. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Something the boys are tickled about: They got a box of prank things for Christmas and put fake poop on the floor by the toilet. My husband for some reason thought our 15 year old cat who’s never pooped outside the litter box did it so he flushed it. They may never stop laughing. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Sometimes my daughter jokes around in what I think is an excellent Irish accent and her partner who is Irish says “is that what you think we sound like?” npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Washington is the only state that needs clarification. Nobody else has to constantly say California state, North Dakota state etc. Getting search results about Washington THE STATE without weeding through DC results is a pain. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo They’ll just build lavish corporate retreats to avoid going in public. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo The beans of a tuxedo cat. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Had these posted at my desk for years. The six phases of a project: npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo It’s #Caturday. Treat yourself. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Settling down with a new book. Let’s see what mistakes I can avoid for our turn in the barrel. Recommended by @npub1ndj…vl5c npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Am I the only one getting irritated by “resistance” platitudes? Get specific or get out. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo One interesting tidbit in “The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich” was that people said “Heil Hitler” dozens of times a day out doing everyday things. Just as a general salutation. It was both a test for and a show of loyalty. I hope we don’t get that far down this road. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo I'm at the age where I frequently remind myself to not fall down. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Love this! npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo 2025 will be the year of touching grass npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo When I was a little girl in the early 60s teachers would say “study hard and you could be the first woman president”. What a crock of shit. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Felix Unger picks up trash on the freeway npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo We had Bleptember and Inktober. What about #Gnomevember? Here are mine just after their third painting npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo The less furry one npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo I like it. Got max storage when I bought it so plenty of room. I think I’ll just have the battery replaced instead of getting a new one. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Still using my iPhone8 npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo beautiful! npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo MAGAs can be rich, poor, smart, stupid and everything in between but they ALL have bad taste. npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo You have to wear a fascinator npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Deet Me Baby One More Time npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo Barack Obama should win the Nobel Prize for wife choosing npub1xpdnkv9g7jl02gjaecw37pe59qrur5yhfvqv8205fhjnfcwhrraqjlsjk3 Lundemo I really think Trump is going to win the presidency and if that happens I’m sticking my head as far into the sand as possible. At least for a while. I’ve tried as hard as I can all my life but nothing seems to work against the tide of ChristoFascism. It feels hopeless.
