Soldier of the month for a brigade of 4,000 soldiers the month the Army kicked me out for being gay (45 yrs ago). 25 years in corp. law firm technology, retired. I'm not what people think I am when they meet me. I'm smarter than the average bear. 😉
633am in San Francisco. Live shots of Alcatraz and the Golden Gate Bridge. We do not have many sunny mornings like this.
Live shot of the gorgeous sunset behind the Golden Gate Bridge and Marin Headlands.
Yeah, most people my age had a "Pet Rock." But we weren't stupid enough to pay $32 for a blob of silicone that probably cost the company 10 cents to make.
Every day, I see frustrated drivers honking at @Waymo cars because the Waymos are obeying traffic laws. Who the hell do they think they're honking at?
Live shot of the last of the sunset behind Alcatraz Island.
This is my city, San Francisco, IN JULY. You can tell by the way people are dressed that it is COLD out here!
WTH? Now @nbcnews.com wants to charge to read one of their articles? Not in this lifetime. They make $$ off of our data. They make $$ off of ads. I WILL NEVER PAY FOR ABC, CBS, OR NBC. #GreedyFucks
PLEASE. FIFA has been corrupt for DECADES. The damage Trump did this week certainly can't be undone. But old white men have used FIFA as their personal piggybanks for DECADES. So...@rbreich.bsky.social...what exactly about this FRAUD ruined the game for you?
@monsterenergy.bsky.social Guess I won't be drinking your energy drinks anymore. Support this DESTRUCTION of our White House like you are this weekend, and you'll never get another dime from me.
This is just personal preference: Post one of these things and I'll unfollow you.
NO!!!! I've even gotten afraid to accept friend requests, b/c 5 mins later it's "Hello would you mind if we chat" and 5 mins after that it's "You didn't respond to my chat request." It's always accts w/pics of young women. My profile CLEARLY says I'm gay. If I leave the conv, I DO NOT WANT TO CHAT.
Rubio, who has used so much Botox that he only has one expression left, also said that his Trump Shoes fit. They don't. Cabinet members are wearing Trump's shoes in the wrong size because they're that scared of him.
This 65yo guy climbs this hill (Nob Hill) every day. Did you know that the reason SF has cable cars because the railroad barons wanted to build houses at the top, but the horses carrying the supplies up the hill kept dying! Truth. The views from the top are worth the climb. God I love this city.
Kids love to talk shit about us "boomers," but you wanna know something? We know how to write a goddamned thank you note. Here they are on Jimmy Kimmel last night, writing -- or TRYING to write -- the words "Definitely" and "Sizzler." Morons.
My friend and co-worker at Muttville, our beautiful cage-free shelter for senior dogs here in San Francisco. She swears she's "not a dog person," but every single week, she ends up like this. @muttvilledogrescue.bsky.social. Best volunteer job ever.
I don't care what you do to it, it's a glazed donut. A DONUT. And I'm not paying $6 for it...plus tax...plus tip. From a coffee shop on 20th Street here in SF. A $6 donut. Good grief.
Damn, I loved my Starbucks Pike Place coffee every morning. For YEARS. But decided finally to give it up because the ratio of the CEO's pay to the average Starbucks employee was 6,666 to 1. Now I know I made the right decision. BTW: SF Bay Coffee Company "Fog Chaser" is my new wake-up.
And come on, to stay married, this guy and his wife had to sign a CONTRACT. "This type of marriage brings a level of security and safety to their relationship," they say. Odd. Love is usually enough. It's like an Evangelical Christian Prenup. "You're gonna stay married to me no matter what!"
We will never forget that our current Supreme Court is the product of one man more than any other: the faceplanting Mitch McConnell.
Grateful: a pic of our neighborhood cannabis dispensary called SPARC. Everything is out on the displays, and the staff remember what you like and show you where it is. 42% THC flower this morning. "Back in the day," I think it might have been 10-15%.
...laid of thousands of workers AGAIN. I closed all my Meta accounts the day that Zuckerberg gave a million dollars to Trump's "inauguration." Money hoarding is a mental disease, and Zuckerberg has it bad. He's never shown much humanity: "Nobody over 30 has ever had a good idea," he once said.
My emotional support dog Charlie Brown left us 9 months ago at 18yo, and I can still barely look at his pics without crying. I'll be taking his ashes out to the beach soon. I can't imagine going through this pain ever again. And I'm okay with that, because I hit the doggie jackpot with Charlie.
