We already have storm-chasers. I think we should have sinkhole chasers as well. Kinda like storm chasers but a lot slower.

Today’s Quote:

I don’t want to be an alarmist, but I think that the Younger Generation is up to something…. I base my apprehension on nothing more definite than the fact that they are always coming in and going out of the house, without any apparent reason.

Good morning. Coffee done, First breakfast awaits.

Trump’s big bloated bill in congress builds nothing, gives massive tax break to billionaires and adds $2T to the deficit. What happened to the GOP worrying about increasing the deficit?

The grocery business has become too consolidated. There is something wrong when the closure of one store in an area creates a food desert. I blame consolidation.

I’ve read that some rural towns, not big enough to interest big corps, are trying a cooperative model to open a town grocery.

Good morning. Started with coffee. On Jewel-Osco Signature French dark roast, which is good.

Fireworks last night. Not in the ‘hood but more distant. Sounded like a big pro display. It will be fireworks every night till the 4th.

It’s been decades since I played or DM’ed D&D, but if I still did, i’d write up stats for Trump, Vance and Trump’s cabinet members as monsters for The Monster Manual.

Good morning. Nothing like the aroma when opening a sealed bag of coffee. It’s so good that sniffing coffee is probably illegal.

Trump is a fink.

Yesterday, I started getting SMS texts asking for money for specific Democrat politicians. Like one per hour.

First, I don’t trust that these are legit. Second, Dems need to show some backbone and fight before I donate. Third, bombarding me w/ texts all of a sudden does not earn trust.

Happy Frozen Pizza Friday to those that celebrate.

Today’s Quote:

I am more the inspirational type of speller. I work on hunches rather than mere facts, and the result is sometimes open to criticism by purists.

Good morning. Coffee done, waiting for breakfast.

Scanning the headlines, so much is political trivia and fluff: who said what, so and so’s scathing reply to Trump, etc. This is all just posturing and a distraction from the real issues. It’s slight-of-hand to cover up the important stuff.

Good morning. Coffee almost gone. I need to figure out breakfast.

It looks like it will be hot today, with afternoon thunder storms maybe.

Democratic Party Establishment is panicked by NYC primary win by a Democratic Socialist. Good keep them scared.

If you are on Bluesky I recommend Radio Free America as a feed for news.

I’m hoping that tarpits designed to poison AI models become common and easy to implement with every hosting company for every domain, because asking nicely is not going to work.

Today’s Quote:

A dying culture invariably exhibits personal rudeness. Bad manners. Lack of consideration for others in minor matters. A loss of politeness, of gentle manners, is more significant than is a riot.

Good morning. Drinking coffee. Today will be a bit cooler than the last few.

I read milk is better for hydration than plain water. If you look at old B/W dugout photos of athletes, long before sports drinks, you will see them drinking milk. They knew it way back when.
