#PresidentBiden #Inauguration #Portland #Seattle President Joe Biden was sworn in as the 46th President of the United States while 15,000 National Guard members were stationed in what many called a "militarized" DC. Associated Press reporter Mike Balsamo tweeted, "Downtown Washington is basically a military and law enforcement fortress a day before the inauguration. There are checkpoints at nearly every corner, streets blocked off with giant trucks & National Guard troops continue streaming in." Meanwhile, protestors were out in Portland and Seattle for the #J20 direct action which included reports of smashed windows at the historic Starbucks in Pike Place Market and the Democrat Party of Oregon.
The kids are practicing for their first rodeo. The event requires them to catch a goat and snatch a ribbon off its tail, then put the ribbon in a bucket and raise their hands to stop the clock. Fastest kid wins. Don’t ask me how they came up with this stuff. Today goat ribbons, tomorrow bucking broncs.
Last night was a long one as we attempted artificially inseminating Maisy for the 2nd time. The last go-round in August didn’t take. Maisy is an A2A2 jersey/dexter cross who is hopefully going to be our family milk cow someday. We are grateful for our AI tech @tessdariano who did 99% of the work. There was an ice cream truck circling the neighborhood while the mission was underway, blaring the traditional ice cream truck song, which made for a quite fitting background soundtrack. Three weeks and we should know if we have a lil’ Maisy on the way. Dad’s name is Billy the Kid. He’s quite handsome. Swim Billy, swim!

And in even better news:
HHS has also said it will end the practice of providing bonuses to doctors who vaccinate high percentages of their patients, and other financial incentives provided to doctors for vaccinations.
I am no fan of racist. However, it's an interesting bit of hypocrisy, that some people feel it's cool to take down sites of people they differ with. But, if those they differ with did the same to them. That would be a "hate crime". 🤔
