New to this instance. Takes a while to find your fit. About me, I live in #Napa and am the co- #author of several #wine tour #books. I'm also a practicing #astrologer, a #Scorpio with my #virgo husband. Oh, and I'm a bit of a #politics #geek and a lover of #cool #tech. You may know me from the bird as @Lahni_Ralph Let's have a conversation!

@mastodonmigration does that presuppose he had a mind in the first place? And the x-plantation is that I'm an X-twitter account holder! ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿ˜Ž Buh bye #birdie #twitter #twit #exit

@RitchieTorres exactly right. 14th Amendment

I'm not finding my lane here. I know I'm kinda all over the place with broad areas of interests and I thought it would be easy to connect in a "welcoming melting pot" but I'm mostly encountering ambivalence or condescension. I've already changed instances once. Should I keep doing that until I find my peeps? #Mastodon #help #advice #question

@tschenkel @wonderofscience

I do understand that. The observation I'm making is that there a difference when moving liquids either clockwise or counterclockwise because one vortex moves downward while the other draws particles of different weights upward. A winemaker visiting from Australia noted that the reverse is true in the southern hemisphere.

@wonderofscience interesting correlation to swirling wine in a glass where reversing direction releases different scent notes from the wine. #wine #science

Colored droplets in corn syrup seemingly blended together can be returned to their original state by reversing the direction of mixing, a form of laminar flow called "Stokes flow".

We shouldnโ€™t just raise the debt ceiling โ€” we should abolish it.

Thereโ€™s no reason for Congress to authorize borrowing for spending that it has already approved.

The only thing the debt ceiling actually does is give politicians a "trigger global financial crisis" button. Hello?

This is an outstanding initiative by Tablas Creek. Using kegs for tasting room wines (at least some of them) will have a significant impact on their carbon footprint. Tablas Creek is shining light for the U.S. wine industry with these efforts.

@maxboot I live in the bay area (Napa) now but am originally from Philly so I thought I'd either be conflicted or enjoy the game no matter who played better but imo the Eagles were pretty thuggish so I can only feel sad for the 49ers. Not happy for the Eagles. Wish I could say Philly is better than this but it wouldn't be true. Terrible game. ๐Ÿ˜ฃ

My Sci fi list is quite a bit like yours. Have you seen this movie? Space Sweepers on Netflix. Korean movie from 2021 with language watch options. We saw it over the weekend and it was pretty cool. youtu.be/H1WYnJF1Pwo

#PlanetaryCalendar has been in continuous publication since 1949. I was blessed to become the co-author in 2002 & added it to our publishing catalog in 2017 after the originator passed & the publisher retired. Today is characterized as a 'social day' with #neptune, #pluto & #jupiter making easy aspects to the #moon in #pisces early and in #aries after 11am PST. The #Sun #Sextile #Moon later in the day will help you express yourself & your feelings well! Have a great day.

Both parties have held the debt ceiling hostage as a political tool. For example, in 2011, the Republicans did it. But in 2013, the Republicans did it. On the other hand, this year it is the Republicans who are doing it.

I will also note that John Roberts brought in Michael Chertoff (counsel for a GOP Whitewater investigation; Bush appointee) to validate the investigation. Not super confidence-inspiring! Someone should ask Chertoff whether justices were questioned.

A screenshot from the SCOTUS report that indicates the Court asked Michael Chertoff to assess its investigation and that Chertoff said they did a super job, no notes.
