A federal judge has ruled members of Congress are not required to give advance notice when visiting ICE facilities.
A dozen House lawmakers filed suit earlier this year in response to an ICE memo
requiring members of Congress to provide at least a week’s notice if they plan to visit a site where detainees are held.
The suit argues the new policy goes against a U.S. statute that guarantees lawmakers the right to make unannounced visits to facilities for oversight.

By-the-way, I tend to watch movie credits (often discovering some good music) and I noticed after watching the new film Nuremberg that the copyright notice at the end explicitly denies rights to use the film to or script to feed AIs.

Was editing and noticed that if you rotate-left "those" you get "ethos". Was curious how many of these are in English. Big dicts have a lot of junk, and most endings in "s" are for plurals. Here's a good list of rotwords.

amen -> name
anger -> range
anon -> nano
cone -> econ
earn -> near
earth -> heart
eighth -> height
hint -> thin
idea -> aide
leaf -> flea
leap -> plea
lump -> plum
open -> nope
ought -> tough
outer -> route
over -> rove
reef -> free
ring -> grin
riot -> trio
there -> ether

I escaped the #fog today for a while, took some photos, noticed that I should start training a bit more in the next weeks.
But most importantly, I just enjoyed being out, had some friendly words with some hikers and had some fresh air.

This image captures a breathtaking winter landscape from a high vantage point. The foreground features a grassy hillside with patches of snow, indicating the transition between autumn and winter. Scattered bushes and leafless trees add texture and depth to the scene.

Beyond the hillside, a vast sea of clouds fills the middle ground, creating a soft, white blanket that stretches across the landscape. The cloud layer adds a sense of mystery and tranquility to the scene.

In the background, a ran…

Oak Woodlands has long been my favorite part of Golden Gate Park, but only recently have I come to appreciate Buena Vista Park for its own coast live oak forest... and even more recently noticed this enormous coffeeberry shrub at the bottom of the hill

A wide park path rises up a gentle incline with wooden steps to a bench, under and surrounded by coast live oak trees.
The underside of some coast live oak trees, showing how their branches grow in a spirally fashion.
A wide and tall coffeeberry shrub fills 3/4 of the frame, while beyond it across the street is a three-story Victorian apartment building with bay windows. The shrub has deep green leaves.

Today's adventure: the train departs, and a minute later I notice that the lamps outside are moving in the wrong direction. The following thoughts pass through my mind in express speed:
• Illusion? Nope, definitely going front from where I'm sitting.
• Did I confuse directions before taking the seat? Nope, we're definitely moving south.
• Did I really take the wrong train?! I think it departed at the right time, what's the likeliness…
Then I suddenly realize that it's apparently taking the roundabout route, through #Poznań Franowo rather than Poznań Wschód.

Just a hut under a tree in the mist ...
I saw this when I was walking back from a location scouting. When I was back at the car, I turned around - already ready to drive away when I noticed this gnarly tree in the field.
The fog was just light enough to create an interesting mood I think.

A solitary tree stands resolute in a world softened by mist, its bare branches reaching upward like skeletal fingers against the muted sky. The landscape is wrapped in a quiet, ethereal haze, blurring the horizon into a seamless blend of earth and sky. Shades of gray dominate the scene—pale silver where the light struggles through the overcast clouds, deeper charcoal along the shadowed ground—creating a mood both melancholic and peaceful.

The open field stretches endlessly, its surface damp an…
A quiet winter woodland unfolds in soft shades of gray and muted silver, where bare branches stretch like delicate lace against a pale, overcast sky. The forest stands in hushed stillness, its skeletal trees stripped of leaves, their intricate patterns creating a natural tapestry of lines and shadows. A gentle mist lingers between the trunks, blurring the distance and lending the scene an ethereal, almost dreamlike quality.

The ground is a patchwork of frosty grass and fallen twigs, crunching …
