Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Flagged

Today is my Hump Day and it also happens to be a Friday... as well as Payday.  Wow... I forgot what that's like.  I did a bit of a double take when I looked at my bank account this morning.  There's absolutely nothing wrong with making money, however, there is also the cost: working 40 hours a week as opposed to 25.  Things that I've noticed:  after walking 14,000 + steps at work, my legs are a bit more tired when I get on the bike.  I'm also riding later in the day which leaves less time later in the evening for writing, video games, and working on my Greek.  
The Idiot Jerk in the White House signed an Executive order yesterday pertaining to Social Media.  If it ever makes it through the courts, which is highly doubtful because of the laws already in place, individuals will have to sue.  As a tinfoil dictator wannabe, this is how he vents when he gets smacked back.  Twitter smacked him back again last night when it flagged one of his Tweets regarding Minneapolis.  You can't see it unless you click on the little warning flag.  Now, the rest of the media needs to show a little common sense in reporting this.  Noting he was flagged and then show the Tweet in it's entirety is a total failure.  There's a reason it was flagged, of course, they're seeing it as a way to grab the readers eye.  You see, there's a group of very stupid people out there who desperately need to know what he said.
I feel bad for the people of Minneapolis.  Do not worry, Derek Chauvin will be arrested for murder.  I suspect that's the reason he was terminated so quickly.  Cities are learning, when horrors like this happen, act fast and prosecute.  That's the only way to begin to cool down a bad situation.  Show that justice exists and the police force is not exempt.
The new earbuds worked well last evening.  The difference in sound quality between them and the Senso buds is quite distinct.  I should have invested in a better earbuds a long time ago.
Finally, a picture of my peonies.  They're nice.  The pink ones are out front, this bush is by the side of the house.

  1. Well yeah, for some people, it's easier to walk and for some, to ride a bicycle. 🤷‍♂️ Tastes vary, I guess. And conditions, of course. 😏

    1. I actually rode a 14 mile ride in record times so I may have accidentally been full of bullshit.

  2. Ohhh those peonies are beautiful!
    And I know what you mean with the differences in pay during the pandemic.
    Cheeto was fuming when he saw his tweet was flagged. And turned around and posted int OFFICIAL WHITE HOUSE ACCOUNT. How’s that for psychotic? And then that one was flagged too. He’s probably throwing a tantrum as I type.
    Tinfoil dictator is right.

  3. Love those Peonies, they're such a spectacular Flower! Can't Twitter just Ban the Idiot in Chief since clearly he uses that medium to incite violence, hatred and spread lies and demented conspiracy theories? I think all Media sites should reserve the Right not to allow what prudent censorship should Ban. Facebook does and tho' sometimes it's a wee bit annoying at disparities in censorship {I once had a pix of an Antique Cabinet Card Nude banned that was tasteful, yet I've seen Porn allowed and squeak thru uncensored}, I'm all for keeping things from inciting undesirable Social consequences and protecting the public. Some people are too stupid to discern information or too gullible so Believe everything someone in a position of authority spouts. The Orange Virus is dangerous and he seeks to destroy anything and anyone that interferes with his Sociopath leanings, he's clearly Seriously Mentally Ill so how he ever passed a Psyche Exam baffles me?!?

    1. Until recently he's been able to use Twitter to attack, but here lately his lonely little gray cell has been misfiring and he's only been able to stab himself.

  4. And did I noticed the bastards at Facebook won't do the same. More and more people are telling me how negative and toxic FB is getting too. I'm not on it so I don't know.

    I love your peonies my dear!!!!! The color is my favorite too.
