Woah-oh
Woah-oh
Come on, yeah

Feel the power!
Feel the power!
Feel the power (Yo!) and plug it in!

It's electric, Electric Company
Get connected, Electric Company
It's electric, Electric Company
Get connected, Electric Company
(Yo, yo, yo, yo)

The power we perfected is eletrically connected
So use it as directed and expect to be respected

Just turn it on, and you will see
That you belong in the company

Feel the power! Feel the power!
(Oh, feel the power)
Feel the power (Yo!) and plug it in!
Plug it in, everybody!
Feel the power (Yo!) and plug it in!

Electric Company
Electric Company
Electric Company

Electric Company!

There's a pawn shop on a corner on Pittsburgh's Pennsylvania Avenue
And I walk up and down 'neath the clock
By the pawnshop on a corner on Pittsburgh's Pennsylvania Avenue
But I ain't got a thing left to hock

Bob liked to play his poker
Pinochle whist and euchre
But shootin dice was his favorite game
He got throw’d in jail with nobody to go his bail
The judge done said that he refused to the fine

He’s in the jailhouse now
He’s in the jailhouse now
Well, I told him once or twice to
stop playin cards and shootin dice
He’s in the jailhouse now --can't pass GO cannot collect $200

It's #DoorsDay? Okay, Ima remove the I from DORIS as I instead cue up "People Are Strange" on the turntable.


For #DoorsDay: I've always admired this door in my neighborhood, for the splash of color.

I have no idea how to deal with your issues on this instance regarding posting locally; turns out that there are no posting options except locally. When I click on the global icon (the circular thingie), the posting editor goes away, and I was told that's just how all Friendica instances work; to change that, one would have to change the coding. The editor shows up when you click on the left-most grid-type icon.

The teensy #butterfly that is the Dainty Sulfur breeds on a host plant that makes humans cringe and cuss: Spanish Needles. In defense of growing Spanish Needles in my yard, it's a great security plant to grow if you have a problem with prowlers. You've heard of paint tagging an offender, I'm sure--but the seeds of the Spanish Needles hold fast to clothing and are a bitch to remove, so it performs very much like tagging a perp. Not to mention how CUTE these li'l guys are! When they flock around a growth of Spanish Needles, the bunch of 'em looks like yellow glitter.



#WingedWednesday #CommonBuckeye #Bloomscrolling #FediversalPictures

A few years back, the #Common Buckeye had a huge baby boom over here. Not so much last year even though I have an ample supply of their host plant, Lanceleaf Plantain. They do host on other plants besides that, though. Here's one feasting on the flowers of a Monarch's favorite host plant, the #Honeyvine. YES Honeyvine IS a milkweed!



#WingedWednesday
Although #MonarchButterflies have had waning activity here, other butters have been making up much of the difference. Case in point, the overwintering Eastern Black Swallowtails that have come bustin' out all over.

This dear girl was released while the peach tree was in full bloom.

Beware the Okie scramblebrains disinformationist going around the Fediverse claiming that farmers are well off when they aren't. It's @okanogen VerminEnemyFromWithin whose handle is pretty accurate being self-descriptive.

A #farmer might very well have lucrative assets in the form of farmland acreage and high dollar cultivation equipment, but none of that has been able to keep any #farm from being foreclosed on or in need of Willie Nelson's movement, #FarmAid . When you've got land assets and depreciating equipment, you're a prime target for every corporate farming operation to snap up all you own the second you default on a loan, and this has been going on for decades.




But Turkiye is sitting astride a serious earthquake-active fault line. Lotsa luck with that.

I'm to be counted among them.


Official support thread for @GottaLaff, who continues to document many cases where Trump and his cronies meet the rule of law. She has to endure continouous and relentless "yes, but" MAGA reply guys and takes the time to scold them for their destructive behaviour. We salute and support you. And everyone that replies to this toot offer his/her/their help to deal with the trolls. You make the Fediverse a hopeful place. On your side.



Hooray for monster caterpillars!!

IT'S #MONSTERDON

we will be watching

First Men in the Moon (1964)

"Jeffries), a brilliant British scientist, creates his own spacecraft and takes a trip to the moon, accompanied by explorers Arnold Bedford (Edward Judd) and Kate Callender (Martha Hyer). After landing, they encounter an insect-like alien race that lives under the moon's surface, which has an air-like atmosphere. After glimpsing the extraterrestrial society, the group must soon escape back to Earth."

It's called Dereliction of Duty because a duty of the Executive Branch is to faithfully execute the laws of the United States, under which law enforcement resides.

A farmer's "wealth" is in the fair market value of all the acres he/she owns, as well as in the form of farming equipment assets, so the "wealth" factor people claim farmers have is overblown because it's not liquidity wealth.


Few people understand modern farming. The consolidation, the incredible inherited wealth, how most farmers borrow to the hilt against their property for new equipment, new pickup trucks, new toys. How many farmers have huge contracts to supply corporate producers, and then the subsidies and set asides. That clown whimpering about the green initiatives and limits on applications "reducing yields" is never going to tell you the rest of the story.

in reply to Radio Free Trumpistan

Fucking moron. Most farmers have millions in inherited land. They borrow against it for millions in operating capital and to fund millions in capital equipment and toys that they either write off as biz expenses and or depreciate against income earnings. Yes, they pay back those loans using the operating capital that they borrow, and also derive large incomes from the crops they produce Those aren't the only liquidity tricks they use you absolute oxygen thief.


That's why NATO will outlive anything Trump does.

I actually have one of those myself, and as long as you don't require zig-zag, it's perfect. The originals (mine too) were made in the 1950s.


Boy, add "extremely high quality vintage sewing machines" to the giant pile of stuff that is almost free if you know how to tune them up. I guess no one needs industrial strength metal sewing machines anymore. (this is a Singer 15 clone, postwar Japan, made with permission of Singer). #random #ReduceRepairReuse

This is another shitpost for the purpose of testing propagation across the Fediverse.
Hi and bye.

@Radio Free Trumpistan

Maybe My Portal does not have a relay setup? Though a relay should not effect say a comment to a post on another instance. It will increase propagation to other nodes that you have no direct contacts on. If those nodes are on the same relay of course.

I wouldn't know, I'm just a user who isn't terribly familiar with how Friendica operates on a granular level. I have no idea.


It's not just your area. This is top-down Soviet shit, what we used to laugh at the Soviets for, we now have because our government's been Sovietized.


Is it just my area, or are others in the United States seeing supply chain issues? My store was out of a lot of stuff and they said the warehouses were not getting certain products from manufacturers.
