Hoo boy, after weeks of nothing there all sorts of things are happening, and most of them involve MERCURY RETROGRADE. This week begins as the last one ended, with MERCURY and Venus staring each other down. Expect chaos in your love life. If you don’t think you have a love life, this week is likely to rudely demonstrate what you’ve been using as a substitute, it’s that chaotic. But this week , Jupiter Retrograde also gets involved with this construction, indicating that the chaos may contain or is the result of *ahem* role reversal. You have been warned. On Tuesday, the moon moves into opposition with one of the legs of this construction, indicating that a woman is getting pretty sick of whatever it is you’ve been doing for the past few days, or alternatively that your love life is disrupted by a maritime incident. Some people also read this as potentially involving a freshwater craft, but since the Moon is in Cancer that day and Saturn Retrograde is unopposed in Aquarius, it really does mean saltwater. As the moon moves out of that alignment, it falls into one with the aforementioned Saturn Retrograde for just a few minutes. That guarantees two things: the time of the incident and also that the boat will be something large. Maybe a cruise liner? Although I guess container ship crews need loving too. Venus skedaddles before the celestial trainwreck that’s happening on Friday. On that day let’s see… Sun-MERCURY RETROGRADE-Earth-Jupiter Retrograde is our main axis, with freaking Mars being en tierce, or if you’re a charlatan you could claim that’s an additional alignment with Uranus Retrograde (which is NOT a thing, no matter how many pop-astrologists tell you it is). In any case, this looks like Charlie Three is going to have a terrible horrible no good very bad day then. Saturday’s tabloids are going to be lit.
So Virgo… bad news. Most of the week is going to be great. But Friday is not. On that day, not only is the Sun leaving you for more scaley pastures, but MERCURY RETROGRADE sticks its butt into your house and shits all over everything. Saturday will be better.

Lovely hiking pic!

Nice doggy.

Your welcome.
My welcome what?
Yore?
US Attorney for Massachusetts Rachael Rollins told reporters Thursday she would be speaking with members of the Department of Justice about DeSantis’ actions, saying she did not yet have enough information to say whether he broke any laws in sending the migrants to Martha’s Vineyard.
The illegal aliens, of course, did no such thing…
Awww, mom
n Australian fitness influencer is hitting back after she was blasted for posing in a thong bikini with her teenage son.
Sophie Guidolin, 33, shared the snap with her 562,000 Instagram followers to celebrate son Kai’s 15th birthday, with the photo showing the blonde beauty cuddling up to the boy with her bare booty on display.
Haters immediately attacked the “inappropriate” image, claiming Kai looked “uncomfortable” and that Guidolin was using her son to feed her “burning addiction to attention.” Other vulgar tolls claimed it appeared as if the proud mama was “banging” her child.
It’s not like the kid doesn’t see her every bleeding day.
“Guidolin was using her son to feed her “burning addiction to attention.””
Bingo.
Nice body, but WTF is up with her face?

Now he tells me.

Yep, definite signs that my shit head tenant is filing for every possible (not really possible) rent “hardship” program, coupled by the Oregon gov’t dragging its feet in making the decision, and I am left holding the bag, so to speak. Fuck, this bullshit is costing me thousands.
Bah, you’re a greedy landlord. This inconvenience probably isn’t making a dent in the level of gold coins in your McDuckian moneybin.
Sorry Zwak, hope your shit sandwich gets tossed shortly.
This state’s fifty year land use and housing mistakes are coming home to roost, and the “solutions” are just exacerbating it.
I have the feeling that when (not if) the claim is denied they will not have the back rent due, and we will have to evict. Which leaves me holding the short end of the stick, as my PM is still going to need money to pay the landscapers and any tenent claims of AC or plumbing issues.
JHTFC.
A buddy decided to sell his rental after longtime excellent renters left. He didn’t want to deal with potluck of new renters coming in, and was just before covid and covid moratorium hit. I think he dodged a double bullet.
The wife and I are starting to talk about that very thing.
And of course you can’t ignore your rent (the property taxes).
There used to be organized groups helped people in situations just like yours for a fee when the law couldn’t or wouldn’t. I predict a rise in demand for their services again.
AC/DC?
A-Team?
Sorry.
That sucks. I’m sorry, dude.
U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert’s pattern of pushing for a religious takeover of America, spreading falsehoods about the 2020 presidential election and warning of an impending judgment day amounts to Christian nationalism, religious, political and social experts say.
Those ideals threaten the rights of non-Christian — and typically non-white — Americans but also endanger the foundation of the country’s democratic process, those experts say.
Uh…aren’t most black/brown/etc people christian of some denomination? And isn’t the country, in part, founded on Judeo-Christian Values?
“This is new and worrisome,” Gorski said. “There’s an increasing number of people saying ‘We’re in this battle for the soul of America. We’re on the side of good and maybe democracy is getting in the way. Maybe we need to take power and if that means minority rule in order to impose our vision on everybody else then that’s what we’re going to do.’”
There are so many things dishonest and wrong here that I don’t know where to begin.
“She’s posing with guns and talking about the apocalypse.”
You’re going to need guns in the apocalypse.

I wonder what they would say about any politician talk about an environmental apocalypse who was surrounded by armed cops?
Uh…aren’t most black/brown/etc people christian of some denomination?
Those are the wrong type of black/brown/etc people.
Democrats have mostly given Garland the space to do his job, but some liberals have argued there is already clear evidence to indict Trump and questioned why the attorney general is not pressing forward.
You can indict anyone and anything on trumped up charges.
We have enough evidence. Our gut tells us he’s guilty. What more evidence do you need.?

I have to say Biden toed the line between paying respects and his office as head of a sovereign country. No bowing to the dead queen like someone would have.
Maybe he got good advice from his new crush.

9 of Swords – Death, failure, miscarriage, delay, deception, disappointment, despair.
Sounds about right.
Back from the first post-summer hike. When I did this hike in April, it was chalenging. In July, it absolutely kicked my ass. Heat matters. This time was possibly the easiest, and got some great videos for next week’s column.
I have a half-day off this week, so am probably going to do a hike to the Mt. Tremper fire tower here since I’ve been to the Overlook fire tower a lot and that’s a way too popular hike.
Prospect was surprisingly empty. We got started at 8:00, and were at the summit well before the upper parking lot opened. There were four people there already. We didn’t see anyone on the way up, and only three groups on the way down.
Yeah, if I were to climb the south side of Overlook, I’d get the the parking lot early and mostly have the mountain to myself before running into everybody and his brother on the way back down. The last time I climbed I did the north side, which gets a lot fewer people, but also makes it too long to go to Echo Lake (the background of my Twitter account) as well. The north trail connects to the Devil’s Path, which goes through a bunch of the high peaks in Greene County, but is fairly difficult. Unfortunately the half day is a little too short for me to do the Indian Head Mountain loop.
“the result of *ahem* role reversal[…]Uranus Retrograde”

I wish these would not be so sugar-coated. Tell it to me straight.
A clear and direct oracle is an unemployed oracle.
