Week-long Welcomings from Moosylvania: May 6th through May 12th

Welcome to The Moose Pond! The Welcomings posts give the Moose, old and new, a place to visit and share words about the weather, life, the world at large and the small parts of Moosylvania that we each inhabit.

Welcomings will be posted at the start of each week (every Sunday morning). To find the posts, just bookmark this link and Voila! (which is Moose for “I found everyone!!”).

The format is simple: each day, the first moose to arrive on-line will post a comment welcoming the new day and complaining (or bragging!) about their weather. Or mentioning an interesting or thought provoking news item. Or simply checking in.

So … what’s going on in your part of Moosylvania?

NOTE: The comments page will now split off after 20 or so left margin comments with the most recent comments on the current page. To see the older comments, scroll to the bottom of the page and use the link.

  1. Good “morning”, Motley Meese! The week begins …

    Morning low of 55 degrees in Madison WI with an expected daytime high of 63. Scattered showeres are in the forecast.

    Have a great day, all y’alls!!

  2. Sunday Meese
    59 degrees and raining here in NY

    Am going to dinner later this evening at a friend’s house – she has made several trips to Puerto Rico with NY nurses (she’s a union organizer) and is headed back there again. The health care situation in many parts of the island is still terrible.

    Today’s Sunday piece at DKos is about the traffic light situation in PR – you’ve probably seen reports that state that only 2% of the island’s customers are without power. Deceptive headlines – that don’t indicate that is over 100,000 people, and no one bothers to talk about the traffic nightmare.

  3. One of the newspapers I subscribe to, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, had a piece this morning on the lynching museum: Alabama Memorial Captures the Scale of Racial Terror in the US. I had been noticing “think” pieces saying “this is very harsh, why can’t we move past this?” – and it was not The Onion! The Republican Party’s political power is tied to white anger over losing the Civil War – both Southern states rights to own non-white people and Northern states rights to discriminate against them. It is not a long ago grievance, it is right now and just as deadly as it was in the early part of the 20th century. Every white person should look at the pictures and own their part in perpetuating the racism that came to a head and burst with the election of Donald Trump.

    Here is one of the photos, a sculpture by Ghanian artist Kwame Akoto-Bamfo of chained and kidnapped Africans:

    • Terrorism writ large against Black folks – has always been dismissed, underplayed, and too often described as “riots” – I’m thinking of the bombing of Tulsa’s black community – and the wiping out of other black townships.
      Lynching was a major piece of that ongoing terror – and initially only Ida B Wells took it up as a crusade to fight against.

  4. Good gray Sunday morning, Moosekind! Currently it’s 53 F. under cloudy skies in Ashburn, going up to 67 F. later. Not sure whether rain is in the forecast, will have to check that.

    Jan, thanks for the moving photo by Kwame Akoto-bamfo. You’re right, all white people should own their part in America’s shameful past. In Texas and Arkansas we little whities were lied to by our school teachers, who said the Civil War was about “states’ rights.” ‘Course it was! It was about the “right” of states to traffic in human beings.

    As you point out, the descendants of these nasty slave owners are now Rethuglicans who whine about being “Christian” while behaving in as un-Christian a manner as possible. How anyone can gloat over mistreating their fellow citizens I don’t know. We have seen an increase in judicial murder (is that the term I mean?) since Thang took office—I’m talking about the white, racist police and their shooting people for being alive while black. It’s hard to believe that as a child, when I heard the term “Christian,” I immediately thought, “Good, compassionate person.” Now my instant association-meter pops up, “Bigot.”

    Feeling as gloomy as the weather this morning: as fast as we deodorize one puddle, Monty pees on the carpet again, despite being taken out regularly. It’s time for drastic measures in spite of husbandly opposition. Today I will ask DIL about her contacts in the Chinese alternative economy who can install new flooring for roughly 50 percent less than what other people charge. I cannot live with this smell permanently.

    We’re taking The Littles out for breakfast in half an hour. Yesterday we had dinner in our apartment so we could watch the Kentucky Derby as it was happening. Thank Goddess none of the horses sustained injuries despite the muddy track!

    • I feel your pain about the pee puddles.

      Have lived with having to have a pee pad in the downstairs bathroom for almost 10 years now – our oldest dog has never learned to just pee outside – ever since he had a broken leg as a puppy.

    • My ancestors did not directly benefit from slavery – we snuck over the border from Canada in the late 1800s and were poor French Canadians looking for work in the mills. But because we were white, we benefited from racial discrimination that gave us – and still gives us – a leg up in nearly every way. My benefits were somewhat negated by being a single female but there nonetheless.

      I am sorry to hear that your doggie peeing problem is not going away! The best solution we had found was the Nature’s Miracle (which someone already suggested) because it supposedly stops the “peeing spot” from bringing your dog back as in “this spot has been peed on, so I can pee there again.” If that is not working then the smell is not what is attracting Monty – it sounds like it is just convenience now. :(

      I don’t watch horseracing but my BREAKING NEWS feeds lit up when Justify won. Is that who they expected to win?

      • Yes, Justify was the one expected to win. And he’s only two!

        All the horses were so madly beautiful I could think of nothing but winning the lottery and buying a horse farm. Then I could look at them all day long.

  5. I didn’t exercise yesterday, but I did do laundry & got my wardrobe for the concert settled by crowd sourcing. I love when I do several loads of laundry, my whole apartment smells like it. Today: church, dishing up food, making tea, and maybe I can squeeze in a workout. Cool enough for a sweater this morning but will be warm this afternoon & downright hot this week.

  6. Good morning, 54 and sunny in Bellingham. My thoughts are in the garden, but given how tired I am from yesterday’s actual gardening I’d best just think about doing more today. Reading my book outside is a better plan!

    Best Sunday wishes to all.

  7. 62 heading for 81 and sunny again. YAY! Got 20.8 KWHs yesterday, cranking at over 1/hour already today, m-t-d is 52.7 – slow start but going gangbusters at the moment. Taking a break in the middle of Sunday chores (molasses spice muffins this week) – mostly because I hate vacuuming worse than the cats do – LOL – so will be offline again very shortly.

    The current administration and Congress are filled with evil people led by someone with obvious mental and emotional problems. I’m not a doctor of any sort so will not even vaguely attempt to say what mental and emotional problems. Basically we don’t have a president right now but the folks actually running things can’t do it overtly because there is something passing for a human being in the position. So I’m just more and more avoiding the “political” news – RTing issues like Puerto Rico and the base cause of damn-near everything wrong with this country – white (mostly male) supremacy and the system set up by them – trying to stay out of election stuff except to remind people to vote, that “blue waves” don’t happen by themselves. But I’ll do my RT’ing sometime later today. Need to get back to the chores – clean out the stove for the summer, vacuum, stuff like that. Still need to find a place to shift the rest of “this year’s” wood so I can order more for next year and have a place to put it. But that’ll wait until July so I can take my time about it. Bright the day, Meeses. {{{HUGS}}}

  8. Good Monday morning Meese
    51 going up to 69 here in New York

    Forgot to post yesterday’s PR piece tweet

    Bobby – newpioneer

    is posting a diary from Puerto Rico this morning at about 7:30 AM – which I urge everyone to read, rec, and share.
    Puerto Rico. A Reality No American Citizen Should Ever Have to Face

    One of the things that has disturbed me – is the fact that we are not hearing from Puerto Rican bloggers – almost all of the reportage out of PR is being done by reporters who are either not Puerto Rican – or who are PR from the mainland and who are sent over for a short day or two day visit.
    They interview “the victims” then leave. They don’t even discuss how hard it is to get a phone signal – or the endless battle to keep a laptop charged. They stay in a hotel that has hot water. They have food.
    Many of the best investigative journalists on the island are reporting – only in Spanish. Rarely are any of the articles in the daily newspapers on the island translated into English – so most of the non-Spanish speaking mainland public never sees them.
    I have been urging Bobby to blog more – even though to do so is painful for him. He is completely bi-lingual – and since he has lived both there and here – and knows blog culture too (heh) I hope we can help amplify his voice.

    When I post almost daily PR twitter roundups – I realize I don’t post tweets from Puerto Ricans on the island very often – since most are in Spanish – and google translate is horrid.
    Please help get it read widely.

    • I had to go looking for your tweet yesterday afternoon but finally found it! I retweeted the one from your comment also.

      I will watch for Bobby’s post.

  9. Good morning, meeses! Monday …

    It is 46 degrees in Madison with an expected daytime high of 72. Sunny skies are in the forecast.

    I am waiting for the NY Times story on Puerto Rico’s power grid problems to get summarized somewhere (probably via Twitter screen caps) since I am out of paywall clicks. I hope the publicity gets things moving – it should be a national embarrassment how we are treating the island. Sadly, the Trump Administration – and Republican Congress – seem to have no shame genes.

    Speaking of Congress, there will be some much-watched primaries tomorrow especially the one in West Virginia where the man who killed 29 coal miners – and spent a year in prison – seems to have a good chance to win the Republican primary. It is an ugly race and one wonders, after hearing the racial insults against Mitch McConnell’s family, what it would take to make a Republican firmly and finally call out the ugliness in their party. Probably nothing, Tim Scott still caucuses with them after Charlotteville. By the way, as someone on Twitter pointed out, if you think that Blankenship’s racism and ignorance will be a disqualifier in West Virginia, you have not been paying attention to West Virginia politics. We may not like Manchin but he caucuses with the Democrats and would give us committee chairs if we win back the majority – Blankenship would only give us one more reason to question if there is anything salvageable about the Trump+60 states.

    I am going to open news stories but not read this morning until I get my work projects done. Last week the 10 minute news cycle distracted me too much and I am behind on end of month projects. I also spent more time than I had hoped to on getting the Moose social media working. I have it down to the Twitter post feeding the Facebook post which does the post but not a good expanded post (with pictures and short text) because it posts the Twitter link, not the WordPress link. However, Facebook is accepting the post because the Twitter-to-Facebook app was grandfathered in – new apps are being held for review because of the Russian stuff. What I have will be good enough and I will revisit it when I have more time to experiment.

    See all y’all later!

    • Here’s some Jan:

      On the mainland, much of the coverage of the recovery has focused on the struggles of the island’s beleaguered power authority and its politically disastrous hiring of Whitefish Energy Holdings, a tiny and inexperienced Montana contractor linked to the Trump administration’s interior secretary. Here in Puerto Rico, the perception of a condescending and under-responsive government in Washington has been fed by the enduring image of President Trump seeming to minimize the catastrophe while tossing paper towels into a crowd.

      But an examination of the power grid’s reconstruction — based on a review of hundreds of documents and interviews with dozens of public officials, utility experts and citizens across the island — shows how a series of decisions by federal and Puerto Rican authorities together sent the effort reeling on a course that would take months to correct. The human and economic damage wrought by all that time without power may be irreparable.

      When the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority, known as Prepa, hired Whitefish for the reconstruction, it also declined to request direct assistance from mainland utilities that for decades had routinely dispatched workers to help one another recover from disasters large and small.

      At the same time, the Federal Emergency Management Agency made a highly unusual decision of its own. Rather than advise Puerto Rico to accept aid from the mainland utilities, FEMA abruptly called in the Army Corps of Engineers — never mind that the corps had never rebuilt a major grid after a storm and by its own account had not made preparations to take on the task in Puerto Rico.

      The result was a chaotic tangle of overlapping missions and fumbling coordination.
      Compounding those problems, the grid was decrepit, corroded and poorly maintained, and Prepa — which, like Puerto Rico as a whole, is effectively bankrupt — had failed to keep sufficient stocks of replacement parts and other critical supplies. Shipments of parts from the mainland were slow to arrive and languished in the battered ports. The terrain is so forbidding that replacing a single power pole can require a helicopter and a team of line workers. The effort seemed to go impossibly awry.

      “I’ve never seen anything like that — not in a developed nation,” said Ed Muller, a former energy executive whose generation and transmission equipment suffered flooding by Hurricane Sandy in New Jersey, severe storm damage in Jamaica and earthquakes in California. In the Caribbean, he said, “hurricanes come through regularly, and have forever. You move people in and you get it done. And we haven’t done it.”

      • Thank you! This: “the human and economic damage wrought by all that time without power may be irreparable.” :(

        The article seems to be both-sidesing the bankrupt Prepa and FEMA when it is clear from anyone watching that the federal government’s DISASTER RESPONSE should have figured out how to RESPOND TO THE DISASTER. Certainly, the island government should have been consulted and included in decisions but this was a federal government failure, period.

      • If there were ever a “follow the money” situation, this has to be it. This could have been dealt with. It wasn’t. Money has been diverted from the doing to the not doing. I haven’t a clue as to where to even start digging out the corruption and repairing what can be repaired – replacing with better whenever/wherever possible. Bobby’s right – one heart at a time. But there need to be a whole lot of folks and organizations each working on a heart.

      • The Twitter and Facebook cleanup took longer than expected because I neglected them for so long! Out of sight, out of mind can be dangerous. The poor Moose had been added to a Teamsters for Trump group at some point and was following some very sketchy pages. I cleaned it all up and will put a reminder on my calendar to check it more frequently. I am not sure how getting added to groups works but apparently it can be done without permission, kind of like Twitter lists. Irritating to say the least.

        The Pond is not going anywhere – I just want to make sure we have a functioning social media presence if people start writing more to promote the 2018 election. Every little bit helps!

  10. Good Moon Day morning, Moosekind, and a lovely one it is, too. When I took the dog out shortly after 6, there was a half-moon waning in a clear sky, even though it had clearly rained during the night. Currently it’s 51 F. in Ashburn, going up to 75 F.

    Yesterday we took Miss Pink Cheeks and Mr. Preschooler out for breakfast and then to Trader Joe’s. Miss PC unfortunately was a bit under the weather but I understand she is fine now.

    Today will be busy—must scurry around doing chores because we have to leave here at 1:30 to drop off the dog and drive to my Lasik appointment. Luckily I’ve planned a no-brainer dinner for tonight, leftover roast chicken, salad, and fruit cup, so that will be a breeze to prepare. I’m pretty sure I won’t feel up to much. The thought of putting one set of eye drops in every hour and the other set three times a day is daunting. However, in the end my “distance eye” will be able to read the closing credits on screens and I may even be able to spot the three turkeys living in the woods here.

    The friends who regularly post here mean more to me than I can express. Hearing about your lives in different parts of the country adds interest to my day—would hate to be without it!

    Wishing a good day to all the Pond and beyond.

    • Hugs Diana……I share your feelings.

    • {{{Denise}}} I managed to RT Aji’s, yours, Bobby’s, & tweet my own before my computer locked up. :( – but it’s back now so I’ll finish checking in here then go back to RTing. :)

  11. Well, my stomach decided I wasn’t walking this morning. I don’t feel bad, but don’t dare be far from a bathroom. Anyway, happy Monday. So, Trump is so obsessively hateful toward anyone connected with Obama that he hired an Israeli black ops team to…. what now? I need more caffeine. Or, better, to listen to my boys play a gorgeous song.

  12. Michelle Obama at the United State of Women Summit in Los Angeles, reflecting on 2016:

    “In light of this last election, I’m concerned about us as women and how we think,” she said at the event. “What is going on in our heads where we let that happen, you know?”

    In the 2016 election, 54 percent of women voted for Clinton, though that figure was sharply divided by race.

    “When the most qualified person running was a woman, and look what we did instead, I mean that says something about where we are,” Obama said, referencing President Trump’s victory in the 2016 election. “That’s what we have to explore, because if we as women are still suspicious of one another, if we still have this crazy, crazy bar for each other that we don’t have for men … if we’re not comfortable with the notion that a woman could be our president compared to … what, then we have to have those conversations with ourselves as women.”

    I have often wondered about why women are so hard on other women. Is it envy, it is a form of competition that believes that success is a zero sum game – that some other woman’s success means we can’t succeed, is it that low self esteem translates to a belief that women simply can’t do this job? It is not new in 2016 – I have seen it a lot in the past. We need to fix it because I am not ready to cede the presidency to the boys.

    • This:

      I have often wondered about why women are so hard on other women. Is it envy, it is a form of competition that believes that success is a zero sum game – that some other woman’s success means we can’t succeed, is it that low self esteem translates to a belief that women simply can’t do this job?

      Patriarchy isolates women in nuclear households (in this country), often preventing them from networking with each other. Girls learn as teenagers that they’re “nothing” unless some boy smiles at them in the hallway and picks them as prom partners. Later, young women are suspicious of each other because male bosses like it like that. How often have I heard women at work say they “don’t want to work for a woman”! Hail, I loved working for women because they treated me (a secretary in those days) like a human being instead of an interchangeable piece of office furniture. So yes, I do think women are trained to see the success of other women as a zero-sum game. There are only so many top jobs, and they’re doled out to women grudgingly.

      And as for this:

      It is not new in 2016 – I have seen it a lot in the past. We need to fix it because I am not ready to cede the presidency to the boys.

      Couldn’t agree more!

      • Pretty much it, Diana – it’s trained from toddlerhood. Basically that girls “shouldn’t” do certain things and the biggest of all of those things is win in a contest with a boy – especially a contest she “shouldn’t” have been running in the first place. We’ve made a lot of progress over the last generation in reducing the number of “shouldn’t” categories for women – but governing? running things? Not yet. Hillary broke that glass ceiling, but they’d coated the upper side with glue so it didn’t actually come down. The patriarchy has a very, very, very vested interest in keeping that ceiling up even with 66 million or so cracks in it.

  13. Good morning, 56 and raining in Bellingham. I’m going to the pool this morning, and will see my grand girls this afternoon so it’s going to be a good day.

    My thanks to all for sharing your daily thoughts. My mornings are sleepy and slow lately so I’m not very articulate, but I read and share your words with deep appreciation.

    • I always look forward to your late morning check-ins so that I can finally say “all is right with the online world.”

      Enjoy your day!

    • {{{princesspat}}} – as with Jan, I look forward to your late morning checkins – gardening and family and even the therapy parts – all’s right with the world, or at least the community we share. Healing Energy and enjoy the pool. moar {{{HUGS}}}

  14. Good morning, Meesefolk. I’m going to be a bit scarce for the next month; in a moment of insanity, I agreed to costume a play (Charlotte’s Web) at a venue that is 200+ miles away. I would have said no, but my daughter is the stage manager and she pleaded with me because no one wanted to do the animals. I agreed as long as I didn’t have to do actual animal costumes, but instead do costumes which are suggestive of the animal/character. Somehow that’s changed a bit as the director has decided Charlotte must have legs, but for the most part we’re [finally] in synch. However, what started as 7 animals has become 15 animals…and tech week starts June 10th. I’m going to be living in my sewing room for the foreseeable future, except for the weekends when I will be driving to OH to do fittings/make adjustments. Oh, and my daughter starts moving into her new apartment this weekend, so I’ll be helping with that. I’m pretty sure this is proof positive that I’ve lost my mind…

    • {{{DoReMI}}} – Have fun. And get enough rest so you don’t hurt yourself in all this. moar {{{HUGS}}}

    • Oh, my, DoReMI, you are amazing and very shortly to be WAY overworked!

      We’ll be waiting for you with tea, aspirin, and bouquets when you’re able to come back. :)

      • Oh, the posts aren’t going away; I had the foresight to plan my topics for the next few weeks, so they’ll still appear. And although I don’t comment in the Community every day, I do read them eagerly. I should stop being such a voyeur and engage more actively, but I always feel like I don’t have much to say. I think that’s probably just my introversion rearing its head, where I sit quietly in the corner and let the party swirl around me.

        On the other hand, my sewing escapades will provide ready-made entertainment (if anyone wants to hear them.) The general absurdity of what I’m doing is entertaining me at the very least. Last night I finished-for-fitting Lamb’s little skirt, and today I hope to finish Lamb’s top, as well as cut out Sheep’s outfit. Read that sentence in a vacuum, and you’ll understand what I mean about “absurd.” Last night, I spent hours lying awake, wondering if I wanted Goose’s tail to be a full front-and-back peplum or just at the back…I suppose it’s better than tossing and turning over 45*s latest twitter meltdown or wondering what the hell is wrong with menfolk?

        • You will always find a audience here for your stories. We don’t have a “topic” other than what’s going on in your life so you are always “on topic”! :)

          I am glad the posts won’t go on hiatus. I don’t usually comment but I do read them – and usually learn new things.

  15. 74 heading for 84 and sunny which is good. Got 21.8 KWHs yesterday and cranking at over 2/hour at the moment, m-t-d is 76.6 which is also good. I’m late in because my laptop decided to lock up. I hate that. Hope it’s not a sign of something wrong (it did it yesterday too) rather than just me having hit some keys together I didn’t mean to – or notice – which happens a lot but usually without locking up the computer. (Mostly I just scream curses at it while I’m fixing whatever typo or what have you it did – benefit of living “alone” – cats are mostly used to it.) This laptop is 2 years old this month.

    The Evil Ones are going about their evil business. Meanwhile I’m trying to ignore what I can and concentrate on RTing Puerto Rico stuff & Aji’s stuff specifically and then whatever I catch that a Moose or Squirrel tweets out. And kitten pics of course. That’s online. I’m a little bit working with my candidate for AR state legislature Dist 86 locally. Early voting starts today. I’ll head to the Courthouse first thing tomorrow. (which partly means I probably will be very late checking in unless I wake up enough to be very early instead. nah. LOL) Got a couple of “needs” folks I’m still trying to help sort of behind the scenes but those folks mostly aren’t at DK any longer either. Mostly what I can do is send love an encouragement – but I can do that so I do.

    Need to do some more internet stuff then get outside for a bit. Bright the day, Meeses. {{{HUGS}}}

  16. Good morning, meeses! Tuesday …

    It is 55 degrees in Madison with an expected daytime high of 79. Sunny skies are in the forecast. This might be the day when I finally have to break down and turn on the air conditioning. Yesterday it got right to the edge of uncomfortable in the house. I will try to hold off as long as possible.

    Four states are holding primaries today: Indiana, West Virginia, Ohio, and North Carolina. Ed Kilgore has a rundown here. I will be watching Ohio governor as a bellwether of how well the Democratic Party Wing of the Democratic Party does against those willing to bern down the government – and kill those who depend upon it – for the sake of purity. The West Virginia election is the white rage chickens coming home to roost and will be interesting to watch as the Republicans go from “we have to stop him!” to “he is our nominee and we support him” in the blink of an eye if Blankenship wins. As much as one might wish for the worse possible candidate to run against Manchin, we have to remember that if a guy wins the Republican primary in an R+60 state, there is a pretty good chance he will win the general election.

    The status of the Iran deal will be unveiled in a made for TV moment by the orange orifice. It is the height of arrogance to sit thousands of miles away and put our allies at risk by pulling out of the Iran deal – and ending any control we have over the development of nukes in Iran. But it is not just Trump, it is a majority of the Republicans in Congress – egged on by Tom Cotton, Lindsey Graham and John “Bomb Bomb Iran” McCain. :(

    #PruittWatch heats up as the latest revelation was that many of the “security threats” the EPA cited to spend money on protection were bogus. One was when someone drew a mustache on Scott Pruitt’s picture on the cover of Newsweek and left it taped to a door. That guy’s paranoia is exceeded only by his corruption. I am not sure if the Deputy EPA Director is any better – I think he is a lobbyist – but at least he is unlikely to have a web of corruption that goes as deep as Pruitt’s.

    See all y’all later!

    • It’s a sad day – like every day right now – when we consider appointees who are only corporate lobbyists to be a step up. sigh.

  17. Tuesday Meese
    45 here in NY going up to 75

    Woke up to deal with all the mess going on here in NY
    First – we will now need a new appointed Atty General
    I hope it is Preet Bahara – however that does not look likely.

    Second – I’m still dealing with teh stoopid from the “progressive” candidate

    PR

    • I was watching the Schneiderman drama unfold on Twitter and someone said that Preet would have to recuse himself from some of the Trump Crime Family investigations. No reasons were given and I can’t remember who said it. I had to shut down Twitter because it was being insane – the “timing ” of a revelation is irrelevant, if Schneiderman engaged in the acts reported (whether drunk or sober) he has disqualified himself from the job of chief law enforcement officer of New York. The takes were terrible: “the women are lying for publicity”, “it will hurt our cause, you must remain quiet”, “Gillibrand had a hand in this – now she has ruined two careers!” JHC! How about “why can’t men behave?” Period.

      I looked at the list of senior staff on the AG web site and the folks who are probably doing the actual work look to be competent. I hope that the chaos in the New York legislature doesn’t end up with a political hack in charge of the office. They have some important lawsuits pending that need good leadership – and no drama! Do you know what the timing is for the legislature to take up the appointment?
