The Daily! (09-Oct-24)

loosely grouped thoughts, three sentences or less

Current Events

  • This should be getting WAY more press, but also, it’s not COVID tests that Trump sent to Russia, these are machines for reading COVID tests. There was a shortage of these in the US at the time and Trump was sending off precious resources to an enemy of the US, not an ally? How is this not treasonous?

Film

  • Shalee and I went to see My Old Ass last night because we wanted to spend the evening in a dark theater sobbing. Mission accomplished! But seriously, it’s a good movie!

Life

  • Hey, it’s Fall Prime Days (aka Amazon Big Deal Days)! Bought some things that we needed and definitely some that we did not. COMMERCE!

Music

Weather

  • Hurricane Milton’s outer bands are starting to hit Florida, with landfall within the next 12 hours or so. It doesn’t look good.
  • It has quickly morphed into stupid socks-and-pants weather here in Michigan and I am not happy about it.

The Daily is a regular feature of this blog with a semiregular schedule, an attempt to encourage myself to post more often.
