@danielbsmith Hah! That would be a very good one, but I am quite sure I do not have enough cash for something that famous! 🙂

BTW, good to see you. I was just thinking the other day that I hadn't seen any comments from you in quite a while.

To be clear:

Donald Trump is a bad guy.
JD Vance is a bad guy.
Vladimir Putin is a bad guy.
Viktor Orbán is a bad guy.
Kim Jong Un is a bad guy.
Bibby Netanyahu is a bad guy.
Elon Musk is a bad guy.
Rupert Murdoch is a bad guy.

Don’t let the bad guys win.

Vote Blue.



I Heard There Was a Secret Chord: Music as Medicine
By Daniel J. Levitin

Music stimulates the brain’s ability to make new neurons, as well as new connections between them, “enhancing brain recovery, and normalizing the stress response.”

You might be huddled in a doorway on the make
or just getting by but I don't see it
You are my one shot at glory
Soon I will read in your expression
warmth, encouragement, assent
From an acorn of interest
I will cultivate whole forests of affection
I will analyse your gestures
like centuries of scholars
poring over Jesus' words
Anything that doesn't fit my narrow interpretation
I will carelessly discard
For I am careless I'm shameless and I am reckless
I am telling myself the story of my life


"We now live on a more violent planet than the one we left behind a few decades ago, the one we will look back on as peaceful, gentle, predictable. More violent, more unpredictable, more chaotic, more destructive, more dangerous."

@Xponent_Rob I've taken that route many times. One good thing about it is that traffic is usually pretty sparse on it. I assume because it'll cost you around $10 to $30 (depending on distance) to use it as your shortcut.

@TetsuKaba Time to buy a crapton of memory, SSDs, etc. to sell on Ebay! 🙂

@MrGoat Great, now I have a new earworm to replace the one I woke up with.

A Russian disinfo campaign disclosed by the FBI argued that Twitter/X, had become “the only mass platform that could currently be utilized” in the United States."... because it was the only one that didn't remove Russian created content.

At what point does Musk have to register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act?
