Random: Singing while eating is almost impossible and it annoys people in restaurants. Not recommended. However, AI backed by giant data centers will soon solve this problem. It’s the solution we’ve all been waiting for besides sorting our cat pics.

I’m thinking hot dogs and refried beans for supper tonight. They don’t really go together but there it is, another one of life’s mysteries sorted for a day so I’ll take it.
Remember the AMC Pacer? I never wanted one.

Reading: The Christmas Catastrophe (Pitkirtly Mysteries Book 23) by Cecilia Peartree
I love this series.
Listen: It’s the End of the World | R. E. M.
A tournament of lies…

Good morning.
Don’t be fooled, Trump’s SAVE Act requiring you to prove citizenship before you can vote is a load of hogwash. Neither Red nor Blue states report any significant non-citizen voting. It’s a massive power grab for Trump and the Federal government.
Good morning.
If your Head of State needs to live in a bunker, maybe you should be asking questions as to why.
I saw a photo posted by the Park Dept. that they claim was a long cut across the bottom of the Reflecting Pool. This is supposed to be proof of vandalism. Frankly the cut looks more like a crack to me.
Also the Epstein Files look like a coverup to me.
My new Kobo ebook reader got delivered today from Kobo.com. Easiest setup ever. More update to follow after I use it. I wanted to charge it up after I got it running and sync’d.
We may have the culprit of the Reflecting Pool vandalism: I don’t know if this is true or AI lies but pictures were posted of Trump’s heavy armored limo driving around on the brand new painted Reflecting Pool. Allegedly, photo posted by the White House.
Just sayin.
Good morning.
Just when you think, “Oh nobody could be that stupid…” and in walks Trump.
Pick a topic. Any topic.
Good morning.
Still no more Epstein Files. News claims only half of known files have been released and those heavily redacted. Plus we are pretty sure Epstein videoed a lot and that stuff has somehow disappeared. No arrests.
Meanwhile tourists are being arrested for looking at Reflecting Pool.
That moment when you have just filled out all your payment info and hit Order Now, and it says things are processing but nothing is happening and you notice you are no longer connected to the wifi.
That.
Good morning.
It seems, somehow, we are going to pay Iran $300B to end Trump’s war with Iran. WTF?
Watched a couple of clips of Buffy the Vampire Slayer on YouTube and they got me wanting to watch the full series again. BTVS was a really well done TV series and I miss it.
Good morning.
On social media: Conspiracy theories about Antifa sabotaging Reflecting Pool with algae kits, National Guard called in to keep people from touching the water, all the new paint pealing and Trump trying to redirect blame anywhere but at himself. Typical.
Sounds like Iran won.
Algae - 1
Trump - 0
Good morning.
I like Banned Book Library, or rather I like the idea of dead drops for banned books, even though I know nothing about the tech.
During the Great Power Outage here, I went to Burger King and got a recently new and improved Double Whopper w/ Cheese and it was surprisingly good. For years BK had let the flagship Whopper drift and become Meh. I will try it again to see if this was just a fluke.
Good morning.
“Peace in our time.” Yessir, we got a peace understanding thingy going with Iran, if Israel does not continue to undermine it. So oil will be flowing Real Soon Now, which sorta releaves pressure on Orange Donnie. Nothing to see here, nothing to worry about.
Read: Lakeshore Public Media to simulcast WBAA News beginning July 6
This means the end of local NPR in NW Indiana, at least for now. WBAA radio serves Greater Lafayette, Indiana which is not part of NW Indiana. It’s very very sad but it is better than the station just going dead.
Big storm Thursday night. No power for 36 hrs but finally back. Cable internet still out. Bigger worry is the food in the refrigerator if its gone bad. Feh.
Stories that never happened are now all the rage on XTwitter.
Good morning.
Elon Musk’s DOGE henchmen eliminated the staff and programs to monitor and prevent screw worm. Now we have screw worm outbreak.
The cattle industry should sue Musk personally.
Meanwhile, we have only Trump to deal with this new screw worm plague. Think about that. Doom.
