just some random things I found of interest:
“Evangelical preacher claims God backed Trump’s invasion of Venezuela” from the Friendly Atheist
“But this isn’t just an insane fringe preacher saying something ridiculous. This is a man justifying the whims of a wannabe dictator by acting like it’s part of some divine plan. When a preacher can turn fossil fuel into “spiritual oil” and military aggression into a “reset” ordained by God, the brakes on this car are effectively broken. There’s nothing he won’t be able to justify. That’s why this kind of rhetoric is so dangerous. It’s bad enough that Kunneman is excusing an injustice, but even worse that he’s making it sound like any criticism of Trump is inherently an attack on God.”
“Nostradamus’ Predictions for 2026: War, Bees, and Celebrity Lightning Strikes” from theh Universal Life Church, from which i have my pastoral certification
“If you consider yourself a great man, you may want to avoid going outside during storms. Nostradamus wrote that “the great man will be struck down in the day by a thunderbolt,” which many believe refers to a celebrity, elected official, religious leader, or royalty.
It would be a bizarre way to go for anyone, let alone a figure of importance, though some have interpreted this as a metaphorical thunderbolt… meaning this could also refer to an assassination by gunshot. “
Or an orange rapist on a golf course….
If you are a geology nerd, and wonder why Greenland is so important:
“Greenland is rich in natural resources. A geologist explains why”
I’m so sick of the insanity and it’s weeks until things get nice enough to work in my garden. I’m giving up on most veg and trying more herbs and flowers. I’ve also started to emborider to keep my mind off of things while I stab something many times. The embroideries below aren’t mine, just some images I thought were nifty.














Happy New Year – good to see you back!

Right now, I’m not doing my hobbies, playing musical instruments or bike riding. Having hand surgery should help. And if I felt good enough I’d go riding if it was nice enough!
I’m sick of the news too.
