More singing belugas here. A man leads them like an orchestra conductor.

If you somehow missed it, this video of a beluga playing fetch with a rugby ball is worth the watch.

That's just me, the golf clubs & fishing gear, and an RV, randomly driving around the West. Not sure I'll ever do it but I now and then map it out. Maybe throw a budget together to see how much it would cost (est.). Oh well, just a mental exercise at the moment.

Our late, great Lacey had a litter of puppies, when they were about three weeks old, I let Mama out early one morning. She stood on the porch for a second, on her toes, and charged off.

A scream from the orchard! A few seconds later, Lacey trots back inside and drops a fresh-killed rabbit in front of the pen. "That's how you do it, children."

Ambergris isn't really whale vomit.

Ambergris is a solid, waxy substance produced in the digestive system of sperm whales, often found floating in the ocean or washed ashore. It is formed when the whale ingests indigestible parts of its diet, primarily squid beaks, which irritate the whale's intestines. A secretion forms around these beaks, and if it doesn't pass through the whale, it can eventually be expelled. Over time, it develops a unique, sweet, and earthy fragrance, making it a prized ingredient in perfumery

Look at her reins when she pats him. And I have ridden a 17.3 TB (that thought should make you laugh even more than the 17 hand hunter I owned), even young, his legs weren’t that out of proportion to his body. I am believing the horse is real and probably big like you said, but was edited for this. So maybe not 100% AI, but definitely had proportions edited.

Ambergris isn't really whale vomit.

Ambergris is a solid, waxy substance produced in the digestive system of sperm whales, often found floating in the ocean or washed ashore. It is formed when the whale ingests indigestible parts of its diet, primarily squid beaks, which irritate the whale's intestines. A secretion forms around these beaks, and if it doesn't pass through the whale, it can eventually be expelled. Over time, it develops a unique, sweet, and earthy fragrance, making it a prized ingredient in perfumery
Posted by: Archimedes at August 13, 2025 07:58 PM

The phrase "lower than whale shit" should be understood to be qualified.

I just looked up ambergris yesterday. It has to be aged at least a year to be useful, and a synthetic version is often used nowadays.

Thank you for asking!
Her immunotherapy is scheduled for every 3 weeks. 6 weeks ago, she had a cold and had to skip it. It was the best she has felt in a year. So they skipped the last one.
In tomorrow for another round.
She's not hurting. She's sleeping. But she's not healthy. Hell, she's got stage 4 cancer! September is the next CT scan. We find out if the immunotherapy is a big enough plus or not to continue it.
But we are ever so grateful for the thoughts and prayers.

You can but you need a lot of pins and string.

The big picture is that the leadership at the Obama DOJ/FBI were determined to shut down any investigation of the Clinton Foundation despite the fact that FBI agents had found clear predicate in 3 different districts, 2 in NY and 1 in Little Rock, to open investigations the Clinton Foundation was taking in millions from foreign sources while Hillary was SOS.

Between that and the illegal email server which they also shut down was the main reason to push the Russia hoax. Take the eyes off Hillary and put them on Trump. It's all one big conspiracy.

149 About the Clinton Foundation timeline:

Horowitz’s report in 2018 detailed multiple instances in which McCabe “lacked candor” with Comey, FBI investigators, and inspector general investigators, including while under oath, about his authorization to then leak sensitive information to The Wall Street Journal in late October 2016 that revealed the existence of the FBI investigation into the Clinton Foundation (while not revealing how McCabe had put the inquiry in leg-irons for nearly a year).

———-

Why would he do that? Other than to get back at the Clinton’s because they stiffed him about something even though he was doing stuff to protect them.

I've been saying for a long time that I don't think it is a coincidence that two of the key players in the Russia hoax were Russia and Ukraine.
