Not the cleanest focus stack ever, but I still like this magical tiny pond with a bonus teeny bug.
“Gills”
I was fiddling with camera settings when I got absolutely drenched up to my shoulders by a sneaker wave. Took this shot immediately after. Hooray for weather sealing.
The decision in the (bullshit) US v. Alaska election case (where the Trump admin wants to overturn the election if their candidate loses) is not only dismissed for lack of standing and trying to violate the secret ballot, but Judge Gleason dismissed the complaint without leave to amend.
In other words, “go away, you losers.”
Glad I’m not in Michigan so I don’t have to spend my Sunday figuring out how to ride Haley Stevens out of town on a rail.
Took me half an hour to fight through bad application design to verify my identity for my (already-verified) Medicare account so I could find out my drug plan premium is going up 4x next year and there’s nothing less expensive. This administration may not be making things more affordable but it’s compensating by making them more painful.
Dream Pack
What I really want is something like a camera vest crossed with a running pack like the Osprey Duro 15. Give me a hydration reservoir and camping gear storage on the back, dedicated lens and lighting storage on the front and sides, shoulder straps made for capture clips and attachment points for Op/Tech straps. But I’ve never seen any such thing.
Just heard a Republican consultant attack the “social elements” in the Democratic Party. I’m sure he meant “socialist” but it’s pretty telling.
