Reed Coverdale of the Naturalist Capitalist Podcast is coming on to discuss this situation he tweeted about regarding Tulsi Gabbard, in which he wrote “My advice is to never sacrifice your time or money for a politician unless you’re ready to be a brainwashed sycophant.”
“I volunteered for her campaign in 2019 and 2020… I probably met her 30 times…Over two years ago, she promised to come on my podcast, but never connected. Last year, when I was on Jeremy Kauffman’s campaign, she came and campaigned for Don Bolduc, a warmongering Republican. I called her out on social media for her obvious hypocrisy. Then this year she was supposed to come speak at Porc Fest in NH, so they made me her liaison. Then when she heard I was her liaison, she first requested that it be someone other than me, then pulled out of the event altogether.” QUESTIONS?
We were stuck for 2 hours on the Sunshine Skyway bridge over Tampa Bay today due to a fatal accident. Watching everyone get out of their vehicles, take selfies, throw footballs, fish, and wonder when they’d get home - while someone was dead just yards ahead - reminded me of my days in TV news, which were filled with these odd juxtapositions of both the most humbling moments and those of routine frivolity. Most people were probably just hoping the road would reopen, though perhaps for a few seconds they considered the life and death of the person up ahead. It will be the same for all of us someday. Few will remember or even care. Even those who are hoping money or power will save them, those who may end up in a history book, will still meet the same fate. And though this seems a morose Easter message, I find it to be oddly fitting for the day we Christians remember our only hope. There is no identity that will last, no bank account, fame or statue that will save us - for dust we are and to dust we ...
We are enjoying a combined family vacation this weekend with @VivaFrei and a routine night fishing turned into quite the adventure. A fish stole the pole then Lynn used his USMC combat diving skills to retrieve both the pole - and the fish still attached! If you’d like the endurance and strength of a USMC combat diver without having to go to endless wars, grab some cod liver/butter oil and more at https://www.greenpasture.org/ and use promo code “ALISON” at checkout.
We buried "Lizzie" after a short friendship. Lily and Jack love lizards. They have become a true delight for them since our move to Florida. Lizzie did not look to be well after a recent cold front and we kept him (her?) inside overnight. The next day Lizzie was dead, belly up. Lily asked to have a graveside burial so she led the proceedings. Overall I think it was a respectful and joyous celebration of life. Maybe Lizzie needed some cod liver/butter oil?
