Completely crazy, to let your military sign NDA's. For the military involved, they can be prosecuted for following illegal orders.
"U.S. military officials involved with President Donald Trump's expanding operations in Latin America have been asked to sign non-disclosure agreements, three U.S. officials say, a development that raises new questions about a military buildup that Venezuela fears may lead to an invasion"
Partly bright and sunny, but fully cold and with generous amounts of wind. “Brisk” doesn’t even begin to do it justice. Still, I am a freak and love this weather. It felt good to be out moving. #TeamShorts of course.
Walked briefly twice to bring my HR down a bit and then stopped to mug at this beautiful Great Blue Heron looking for their lunch. 🐟

Just finished round 1 of #Thanksgiving cooking.
I have extremely mixed feelings these days about a holiday founded on genocide (seriously, official Thanksgiving #1 was "hooray we killed these natives, let's celebrate" which is deeply ironic/horrific given that the whitewashed origin story also did happen years earlier). But I'm a big fan of cooking and feasting, so that's what I focus on.
I'm vegetarian so no turkey.
I made "chiraji sushi" in my heavily bastardized personal style, as well as vegetarian stuffing. Both were pretty successful, although I truly regret forgetting to put nuts in the stuffing. I ended up using "smoky chipotle" flavor "better than bouillon" for the stuffing soup base, which pairs surprisingly well with the chopped persimmons. I tried doing microwave -> pan fry -> bake for the potatoes and carrots, and while they turned out good, they weren't as amazing as I'd hoped for.
The sushi (with stir-fried carrots, onions, mushrooms, and peas, plus fried tofu chunks and fresh cucumber and canned corn) turned out excellent.
Now I just need to decide what to have thirds of.
My contribution to #footpathFriday , just fresh from the press ;-)
I went to the local hill / mountain today to escape the fog / clouds. Well and also to see whether the fog would create some nice mood to capture along the way that I'm walking rather often.
And indeed it was a very pleasant experience to walk into the fog and breaking through it to see some blue sky.

Worth a follow and support. One of the handful of folks I followed over here from the old place. Fresh insight is in exceedingly short supply these days. @… https://mastodon.so…
