Morning.
Exploring local issues today.
If you have the time the full article below is worth a read and the New Yorker writer has the quirky humor often found in the publication. Oregon is a trend setter, historically slipping into economic downturns before other parts of the country. Might see some additional trends which are showing up in your local area or maybe just the opposite.

Open Thread - Thurs 12 Feb 2026 - Ring Cam Doggie Rescue???
Submitted by Sima on Thu, 02/12/2026 - 5:00amRing Cam Doggie Rescue???
A couple of days ago Lee Camp wrote an article called ‘A Super Bowl Ad Accidentally Showed The Horrific Future of America’ for his substack. I didn’t watch the Super Bowl, even though it featured the Seattle Seahawks and was close to my old home town (Los Gatos, CA), and very close to where I went to college as an undergraduate (University of Santa Clara). So, I never saw this ad. But after reading this article, I’m determined, I am NEVER going to see this ad. And I’m not getting a Ring Camera. And I’ll find my dog, if he gets lost, the old fashioned way, by going out there and searching for him and calling for him and getting neighbors to help…
One of the old fashioned ways of finding your dog – calling it, being outside with it, walking with it… So darned old fashioned! From image.freepik.com

Seems my head is in the wrong place today. No excuses, just a statement of condition.

Good morning everyone.
Got a late start today, so will have only a brief note to get started.
Our "peace president" seems ready to bring his brand of "peace" to Iran at any time now.
I can only imagine how the planning sessions go at the Pentagon with all the branches of military wanting to "get sum" and show their relevancy.
