• Tue, 12:03: What's so "inexplicable" abt decline in use of #COVID19 #vaccine ? Virus has peaked. Curve successfully flattened. Need for vaccine reduced. Tho I'm still concerned abt friend who didn't think coughing & chest pain cd be COVID last week; awfully quiet this week.
• Tue, 12:17: Beautiful #Ohio #phenology (remarkable resemblance to the high #BlueRidgeMountains , same gorgeous weekend). https://t.co/NToqYjgUmf
• Tue, 12:48: Black homes matter. All homes matter. Tax freeze on all multi-generation-owned HOMES (relative to traded REAL ESTATE) wd be excellent idea if laws were written to favor heritage over turnover, consistently. Which seems unlikely. https://t.co/yWNBgKGd1U
• Tue, 12:53: Do bureaucrats seriously think mail-in voters are going to drop their ballots into a toilet installed in somebody's front yard? Is that something bureaucrats would do? We Will, We Will, Mock you! https://t.co/gmCxUDMdWy
• Tue, 13:10: Someone was saying the US led "developed" countries in #COVID19 deaths. Chart here says UK, Mexico, Italy & Belgium are FAR past us. https://t.co/Pl47Q3ZYa3
• Tue, 13:13: And in the US, per this chart, only #Connecticut, #Massachusetts & #NewJersey are even close to Belgium on #COVID19 fatality; most States are very low. https://t.co/sjVjMTPKh7
• Tue, 13:18: Nest: a lace knitting stitch pattern. I'm using some Gannet Designs in face covers (headbands): lace for outside layer, colorwork for inside layer. Post- #COVID19 they'll be a great way to manage long hair... https://t.co/Il3WguX9Z4 via @naogannet

• Tue, 11:50: "What kind of property..." @LendingTree , I don't want to refinance anything. I don't intentionally do clickfraud, either. I just bought, out of desperation, a Dell Latitude POG with a messed-up mouse.
• Tue, 11:54: The stuff that mimics & complicates symptoms of #COVID19 ? Don't give in, @EPA ! Nebraska needs to be producing food humans can eat. Control weeds with boiler/steamer tech that helps crops grow! https://t.co/kGDfN9tEX2
• Tue, 11:57: But that makes those big bushels unfit for human or animal consumption. You need to update your technology. Boiling/steaming will kill a weed & actually help most crops grow. https://t.co/Gg6p6YpWiF
• Tue, 11:59: Those determined to keep farming dependent on poisons have already shown that even human life means nothing to them, much less property. https://t.co/RQHRdBJutk

• Fri, 13:46: Check it out, animal lovers: More Petfinder Links, Anyone? If this cat picture works on your devices, I'll bring back the adoptable pet photo links at my web site. (In memory of Heather. Serena will not be involved!) https://t.co/GvOVbkgnHc
• Fri, 13:48: This is cruel. We know @JoeBiden has only read speeches other people write for him, since 1984, but those people need to stop writing insane ones that make him sound senile. He's not THAT old, self-sabotaging D's...is Trump paying you well? https://t.co/VuMunhSmVw
• Fri, 13:50: I don't see it. Dog's much better looking than man. But...if Petfinder links at Blogspot work for readers...this kind of tweet will get you links to 3 different photogenic black & white dogs, seeking homes in 3 different cities. Worked for a lot of pets a few years ago... https://t.co/8JeOOCY7W2
• Fri, 13:51: RT @DanWolfeKBJR: Dems and the @MinnesotaDFL have been very critical (and rightfully so) of Republicans holding rallies with no distancing…
• Fri, 13:54: Oh @JoeBiden 's been campaigning all right, if not in Minnesota. But per some tweets QRT'd below, the speechwriters he's been using are real saboteurs. Making him promise everybody milder weather?! https://t.co/SIntXLN7Xg
• Fri, 13:56: Well, guys, here is your eye candy for today. I suspect @JoyVBehar just could not deal with the visual competition. https://t.co/5QjJVGlQB3
• Fri, 14:00: "Why didn't you go to Fri Mkt?" I was asked. Wd have got wet on way in & got merch wet before I left. If I could send this rain to the West Coast I surely would. It's climate change, & it may last more than 1 year...but it's not *global*. https://t.co/V3hmTlm5QX

• Fri, 14:23: Where I live ppl w mild symptoms (Grouch wd not agree his were mild; I mean non-disabling) don't GET tested, even if they have #Veterans' coverage. I still don't know for sure. I had a weird chest cold with pericarditis, but was it #COVID19 ? https://t.co/5GxFNIMsHA

• Thu, 15:09: Fires in California are normal at this time of year. I think of Oregon as wet. Do most people in Eastern States think of the space in between San Francisco and Seattle at all? Have the fires been put out yet? https://t.co/ZdXsCWdg7n
• Thu, 15:12: If you think of face covering as a protest against hidden camera surveillance, masks are definitely a progression from 1960s protests. (A huge improvement, say the C-cups.) But most people don't. #WearAMask https://t.co/M44zQORBXF

• Thu, 16:20: Hmm. https://t.co/CP9zeW9b4t prompted me to "add gallery." Had some images to upload, but they're not showing on the gallery page, only as "updates." If you enjoy what I do, please support me on Ko-fi! https://t.co/dNPqWkq9bO

• Thu, 16:50: OK, @YahooCare, here we go. You've had MONTHS to send a key to reset the password to the backup e-mail account I created (using Firefox, yet). You've failed. This will go to court & meanwhile a #Boycott of @Yahoo advertisers is under way.
• Thu, 16:54: I'd prefer to use a US-based e-mail for new @Paypal account, but since Paypal definitely uses foreign office help & I'm not sure @gmail or @Outlook don't, not sure it matters that other free e-mail services are foreign. Use US postal orders if you really care!
• Thu, 16:56: #Glyphosate in #fertilizer is hurting food production, researchers say via @USRightToKnow https://t.co/cLUJ8zAOps

• Thu, 19:11: So now what I want to know is why young ppl who run 5 mi before breakfast & carry 150 lb are so flippin' vulnerable to #COVID19 , when, in #Virginia , it's still a "nursing home disease" few young ppl know they've had? There's a common factor for those #Police ofcrs.

• Thu, 19:48: Tri-Cities not looking good. Stay well neighbors... #WearAMask bc if you have virus & don't feel it yet, other people won't get it from you. At least not if you mask up & back away when they forget & stand too close! https://t.co/yf6RYRG8y9

• Wed, 16:59: Likely true! Students are in little danger. Shd drop gym, stay in school. Most won't even have to leave classroom for coughing. If they go home they'll expose their ever-loving grandparents, who may be in real danger from #COVID19 . https://t.co/6OPn2qgqKN
• Wed, 17:00: Control (of ppl) & surveillance are some governments' actual goals. Control of virus is a pretext. That's lucky for those govts bc they *can't* control #COVID19 or AIDS or any other virus. https://t.co/6A65lgnILU
• Wed, 17:03: Seriously, @Twitter : A human should confirm "harmful behavior" (as in CRIMINAL behavior) before anything blinks. When will @TwitterSafety learn? People report things with which they disagree as "harmful." Need to stop allowing this. https://t.co/XOrEWUZe8j

• Wed, 17:03: In the past, census records were useful to genealogists. No more. Since @uscensusbureau insists on processing census information online, I've had to withhold names, birthdates, and house address--so that only "Persons 1, 2," etc., show up on computers.
