Got some weather warnings of rain β˜” possibly coming... So I headed out for my little walk to keep practicing my muscles again 🦿 (well, just the hip is made from metal πŸ˜‰).
Been boosting and liking toots from my other account, but also from friends and some friends of friends... 😊
Will have to pack my bags a bit further for the vacation tomorrow. But not all clothes were dry just yet...
Almost home, so another walk has been done. Though it's weird to walk just for the sake of walking... It's so much more fun with either a dog or a friend, although my music helped. 😊
According to my watch, I'm at about 4800 steps now. So in a few hours, I may go for another walk (or maybe two), depending on the weather.
Catch you all later folks, most likely from my beige Journey account. πŸ§šπŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

Really? Gerrymandering is your biggest worry???


Americans worry democracy in danger amid gerrymandering fights, new poll finds – live;
Armed troops in cities? Kidnappings in broad daylight? No big deal.
Gerrymandering? OMG! 😏

@Dave Wise I'm not saying it's not important. It's just that gerrymandering isn't exactly unheard of in this country, whereas, in my limited experience, six states sending their National Guard to DC to defend against an imaginary crime wave, as a pretext for establishing a police state seems "new" as do the endorsement of kidnappings by unidentified thugs in masks by a convicted felon living in the White House.

ICE and DHS poaching DOD employees: The War at Home


From a post seen elsewhere August 20, 2025:

You will not see this on your news tonight:

The US Secretary of Defense is authorizing DOD civilian employees at any grade level to take a temporary, paid "voluntary force" assignment with DHS and ICE. The temporary roles would help to arrest, detain, and deport people. The posting is open for a year:

usajobs.gov/job/842956200

In case not clear: this is a green light for a domestic immigration control agency to expand its workforce by removing employees from a global military agency. This is NOT how Congress allocates budget for agencies, workforce, salaries, and activities, as provided in the US Constitution, Article I.

Battery-free: Scientists create "solar" cells capable of using ambient indoor light


"Your household gadgets could soon be battery-free..."

"soon"? Not if battery manufacturers have anything to say about it... Or indoor lighting will become a leased service...

@tio
It's unfortunate you can't put these trade-free Androids on an iPhone, otherwise it's a really good phone hardware wise.
