I will be driving/visiting/shooting for almost the entire month of October, so all of these will be written WELL ahead of time. A true test of my uncannily oracular, peculiarly prescient prognosticationary abilities. Hopefully I have enough unseen dog pics/vids to keep people entertained.
This first one is going to be pretty easy, since there’s nothing much going on. It’s a shitty day for shooting on Sunday, but I have no match then, so I don’t really care. If you do, it’s the moon in Sagittarius screwing with you. That and your trigger pull. Otherwise, it’s an excellent week in general, and particularly for Libra as it gains Venus. Honestly, this would be a good time for peace talks, but there’s no indication that there will be any. Instead there’s only one day of interest, which is the 5th. Then we’ve got Venus (peace/love/sex/femininity), the Sun (growth/life/power), the moon (change/variability/water/feminine) and Jupiter retrograde (misrule/illegality/regret/punishment) all lining up together. Now anyone can take the known planetary meanings and put them in a blender, it takes an astrologer to taste the resultant celestial slurry and pronounce judgement. In this case, it’s about trouble involving a female leader, probably of an island or peninsula (since the moon being in Aquarius doubles down on the “water” aspect.)
This looks like a dramatic week. Seven Majors drawn?
Libra: Queen of Swords – Widowhood, female sadness and embarrassment, absence, sterility, mourning, privation, separation.
Scorpio: 8 of Swords reversed – Disquiet, difficulty, opposition, accident, treachery
Sagittarius: The Sun reversed – Material happiness, fortunate marriage, contentment (but not as much as had it been drawn upright.)
Capricorn: The High Priestess -Secrets, mystery, the future as yet unrevealed, silence, tenacity; mystery, wisdom, science.
Aquarius: Strength – Power, energy, action, courage, magnanimity, complete success and honors.
Pisces: The Lovers reversed – Failure, foolish designs, marriage frustrated
Aries: 2 of Coins – Gaiety, recreation, news and messages in writing, obstacles, agitation, trouble, embroilment.
Taurus: Wheel of Fortune – Destiny, fortune, success, elevation, luck, felicity.
Gemini: The Hermit – Prudence, circumspection,treason, dissimulation, roguery, corruption.
Cancer: The Fool reversed – Negligence, absence, distribution, carelessness, apathy, nullity, vanity.
Leo: 9 of Wands – Strength in opposition, delay, suspension, adjournment
Virgo: 7 of Swords – Design, attempt, wish, hope, confidence, quarrelling, a plan that may fail, annoyance.
Scorpio: 8 of Swords reversed – Disquiet, difficulty, opposition, accident, treachery
Sounds promising!
Taurus: Wheel of Fortune – Destiny, fortune, success, elevation, luck, felicity

Thank God I stocked up on tinfoil this weekend.
Sagittarius: The Sun reversed – Material happiness, fortunate marriage, contentment (but not as much as had it been drawn upright.)

Nope, your supply is insufficient.
Aquarius: Strength – Power, energy, action, courage, magnanimity, complete success and honors.
That can’t be right.
Obviously, looking at my life, Not A Dan is a Rooskie espy pumping us with bad info, as opposed to Methane.
Obvious suspects are UK or Italy. I call “both.” Who else am I missing?
Michigan
Ooh! I certainly hope so! As long as the trouble is directed toward her and not, as has usually been the case, emanating from her!
Is it VERY bad of me to wish so?
The FBI might plot to kidnap her again.

Local cities/councils already have been banning wood stoves and fireplaces.
Watch me pull this number out of my ass.
If people just died early instead of being warm and comfortable, imagine the savings!
I have a wood stove in the basement but can’t use it because of the degraded chimney liner. The condition is such that I’d probably need to put in a new chimney, and at that point, I’d much rather buy an outdoor wood furnace instead and run an underground duct into my house.
15 acres of woods, and I’ve been using an electric heat pump and oil furnace because the cheap cost of energy came out far ahead of the labor of burning wood. It looks like that tradeoff is changing.

A bit of a stretch, since that’s a very small fraction of NY, but given the female “leader” involved, I’ll allow it!
Yay!
I thought questioning elections was treason: Democrats’ “Stolen” Election Claims
It’s just a game…
Panic at an Indonesian soccer match after police fired tear gas to stop brawls left 129 dead, mostly trampled to death, police said Sunday. Several fights between supporters of the two rival soccer teams were reported inside the Kanjuruhan Stadium in East Java province’s Malang city after the Indonesian Premier League game ended with Persebaya Surabaya beating Arema Malang 3-2.
The brawls that broke out just after the game ended late night Saturday prompted riot police to fire tear gas, which caused panic among supporters, said East Java Police Chief Nico Afinta.
Hundreds of people ran to an exit gate in an effort to avoid the tear gas. Some suffocated in the chaos and others were trampled, killed almost instantly.
Oy
Sounds like the police killed a bunch of people. Well done…
Jesus.
well, eff my Bills.
I have Lamar and the Baltimore defense in my office fantasy league, so…yay me (so far).
Chaching… for you. Q.Q
I’ve got faith. You can beat the Ravens!
… says the Cleveland fan. That last drive did just look like us at least.
Our guys can’t catch a break.
what the actual F Johnson… that isn’t even defensible.
Fuck yea Poyer!
Good stuff.
Disaster tourism
President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden will travel to devastated areas this week as the United States reels from the death, dangerous floods and destruction left in Hurricane Ian’s wake.
The White House announced late Saturday that the Bidens will visit Puerto Rico on Monday and Florida on Wednesday.
Where will they be Tuesday? Cuba?
The Bidens will set foot in Florida?? Hotbed of disease and fascism?? ::slaps back of hand to forehead, swoons::
the Bidens will visit Puerto Rico on Monday
I think the window on that one has closed.
I’m not a fan of these types of political stunts but at least DeSantis can use a griddle.
Ron DeSantis is grilling up hash browns for first responders at a Waffle House in Punta Gorda
Based.
Florida is a law and order state.
Looting and lawlessness will not be tolerated.
Going on to say “we’re is a second amendment state.”
“I will be driving/visiting/shooting for almost the entire month of October…”
Please keep us informed!
Gaiety, recreation, news and messages in writing, obstacles, agitation, trouble, embroilment.
Well, a little sumthin’ for everyone.
@Not Adahn – any of that travel gonna bring you my way?
I can work with that.
Mixed bag. I can handle the gaiety, I guess.
Giggity.
*narrows gaze*
Gaiety, recreation, trouble, embroilment?
Sounds like I may finally get laid
Godspeed
Good Luck. We’re All Counting On You.
Towing with my Ford Lightning EV Pickup was a TOTAL DISASTER!
Saw that. Although why on earth you would buy a vehicle like that to tow is beyond me. My buddy moved up to a Super Duty because his F150 wasn’t getting it done.
Honestly, with how few miles I put on and how infrequently I now tow I could probably get by with an electric.
But I won’t.
Strength in opposition, delay, suspension, adjournment
Shitty adjacent?
Love doggos in the wild!
Leo: 9 of Wands – Strength in opposition, delay, suspension, adjournment
Wut?
Was there any rational reason why there couldn’t have been an internationally – monitored election in the disputed regions of Ukraine to see how many citizens wanted to be part of which nation? Think of all the death and destruction there has been because nation states refuse to allow self-determination.
“Was there any rational reason why there couldn’t have been an internationally – monitored election in the disputed regions of Ukraine to see how many citizens wanted to be part of which nation?”
Not conducive to the aims of either nation involved, since the truth is probably somewhere in between what either claims.
It is a tragedy though, since that is probably the best solution.
