YADA YADA YADA...

We're not on social media but we often get to hear about it--and are sometimes sent screenshots....yes it can be brutal out there.

Let it suffice to say that all revolutions eat their own children and we almost immediately deleted everything that was sent.....it was after all, a gardening, shopping and generally busy weekend for some of us......

In any case---currently trending on social media:

LOCALLY: SOMETHING CALLED THE QUEER LIBERATION FRONT, MARIXIST, YADA YADA YADA...JUST NOT GOING THERE.....

Bots, blocking, and banning.  Again, not much new to add here. Between the anonymous accounts and bots, facebook is a mess.  However, NOW THERE ARE SCAM CONTENT/ACCOUNT RESTRICTION WARNINGS ADDED IN THE MIX. There's almost a desperation feel to it all........

LOCALLY--POT STUFF---STILL MUCH CONCERN ABOUT THE COMING POT SHOP; LOT A "AFFORDABLE HOUSING"; STILL MUCH CONCERN; VILLAGE'S "PRO-HOUSING STATUS", STILL MUCH CONCERN, LOTS OF CHATTER and ALLEGEDLY, FOIL REQUESTS WITH THE STATE HAVE 
BEEN MADE; RESPONSE IS NO DOUBT MANY MONTHS AWAY....

AND.....

DANGER DANGER DANGER WILL ROBINSON!

TRUMP...LAWLER...GAZA...CONLIN...ISRAEL! FREE KARMELO! FREE LUIGI! YADA YADA YADA...IT'S SO OFF THE HOOK, WE JUST COULDN'T BE BOTHERED AND MOVED ON TO THE POSITIVE STUFF:

CHATTER ABOUT THE NEW CROTON NEWS AI SITE; LOTS OF POSITIVE FEEDBACK

LOTS OF FOLKS HAPPY ABOUT THE US WINNING THE OPENING FIFA GAME (EverythingCroton: US WINS BIG IN WORLD CUP OPENER ) AND OF COURSE THE KNICKS

AND RAPTURE! NO MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT NOISE! THANK YOU CROTON PD Update on Disruptive Music - June 10 | Croton-on-Hudson NY

Much very positive chatter about the ceremony honoring Coach Daubney--lots online. For those not on FB, some photos here in case you missed it EverythingCroton: PHOTOS 6/13, CEREMONY TO HONOR COACH DON DAUBNEY

LOTS OF HOPEFUL , REASONED, CHATTER THAT FAUCI, MORENS, ETAL, will be held accountable.

TO BE HONEST, we prefer Twitter/X and Instagram these days--and speaking of Instagram, guess who Adriana met: EverythingCroton: NEW FROM MY MSMERMAID LIFE--SPACECON AND JOHN CENA TOO

THAT'S ALL FOLKS.....see you at the end of the week when next we dive into the social media muck...we mean emails......
