Sometimes you gotta listen when your body says “no more”. Can’t believe I’d ignore a 5% today but after barely sleeping since Tuesday and 40k chase miles this years, I’m tired AF. What a year.

Wild shit here. Lot to dig through.
The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. vanityfair.com/story/jared-k…

I'll be issuing my Arizona chase forecast later this morning. The limiting factor for a more significant tornado threat is the lack of low-level wind shear (near the ground), although outflow boundaries from earlier storms and local topography could provide additional shear. Beyond the tornado threat, large hail (possibly tennis ball-sized), damaging winds exceeding 70 mph, and flash flooding may pose the greater overall threats. More soon. #azwx #tucson #phoenix #tornado #weather #news

Yes to everyone... my posts are going out OK except for the ones that X squash as part of their competitive algorithms. This has now happened to me at least five times, when my follower count gets near the monetization threshold. I loose 500 to 1,000(+) followers and my Home / Following / Recent and Popular categories points to Welcome to X as seen in the attached image. In other words, it's like I have zero followers or opened a new account. I'm not using any app or extension that causes this and it occurs on all platforms (iPhone, desktop, iPad, etc) and on all browsers I've tested. It's originating from X. This is especially destructive when I am sending out spotter reports, as I cannot interact (see) other responses or interactions. If I was a paranoid type individual, I would say that someone at #X or @Support has it out for me, especially by keeping my account below 10k followers since 2009. Maybe Elon was once stuck in chaser convergence and blames me? 🤣 I've had three separate AI analysis checks done on my account and they all found some type of restrictions placed on my posts and inconsistencies with follower counts over the last 10 years, especially given I don't post political or other comments that can drop hundreds of followers at a time.

4.5 years ago, an exchange on Twitter about the Loving's Love aircraft prompted me to nominate Neal Loving to the @NAHF. I'm now thrilled to say that he has been selected for induction with the class of 2027! Here's the selection announcement & photo that started it all.

42 years ago today, October 19, 1984, Jonathan Demme-directed Talking Heads’ concert film “Stop Making Sense” opened at a theater near you. The performance of “Life During Wartime”(1979) in the film prominently features aerobic exercising and jogging by David Byrne and the backing vocalists Lynn Mabry and Ednah Holt.

Neither Cartier-Bresson, Banksy nor Cold War Steve could have come up with such an image. Absolutely perfect composition and lighting (even the road signs are perfect)! 😍
