Tiny teaser of a major project I started today. I've never tried something like this before and it is likely to take a few weeks. Also it's hard to get a proper "flashlight" effect in this fractal app. An unlit version of this same image also exists.

I worry about my trans friends in today’s political climate. They just want to live their lives and not be an open target. They don’t support assassinations.

Ugh, this is why I normally dont do politics. Everything rushes at the speed of... er... a fast thing, and both information and misinformation everywhere. How does anyone keep up with stuff? I followed this closely for a couple of days and I'm already out of date on it.

Yeah I'm considering just checking in once a week and waiting for the dust to settle.

Aye, I should probably do exactly that as well. I dont exactly need to be spending a ton of added time on the internet anyway.

Happy Heavenly Birthday Cousin Phil. Crying over you. One of the Good Men I've had the priveledge of knowing. Born and raised into a terrible situation. The charming Thug. Train hopping and running around the corridors in the backs of casinos, sneaking into the pit. Oh we had such fun. I miss him more than anyone could imagine.

My daughter tells me that sardines are all the rage these days. She threatened to make sardine martinis.

That Wild Planet sardines, l may have to try that again. That site also showed how to make sardine sandwich using mayo, etc.

Being tired from work is almost refreshing compared to fatigue from mental stuff. This is very strange; it is a gentle stressfree rest that is not like fatigue.

I have that when work makes me too tired to worry

Just discovered that recently myself. Built the turret thing, involved a lot of contorting myself into odd positions to get at the screws, and boy howdy was I sore afterwards. But it was like... this bizarre "satisfying" soreness. Which is new to me.

I feel the same way about studying anatomy and physiology, @Hazel_1914. Tired brain from focused learning feels so much better than tired brain from anxiety and confusion.

All the good belongs to us, all the evil to the them, therefore any evil done to the other is justified and righteous.

There is something infinitely exciting about getting a planner for the new year. I love how it sits there on my bookshelf and reminds me that at least a few parts of life are ordered and settled.

LOL - my planners all have nothing but pages of doodles.

My dad decided to buy a second car. He was a bit concerned that it seemed a bit lacking in power and couldn't make it up hills, so he asked me to check it. After looking at a couple of things I decided to check the air filter, and when I opened it there was enough corn kernels in there to supply an entire movie theater with pop corn and a very badly damaged filter! 😸

I figured it was likely a mouse had crawled in there. I checked as much of the wiring as I could and it seems fine as everything is working as it should. As whimsical as it would be to have a car that shoots plooms of popcorn out of the exhaust, I'm glad I found the problem before any real damage occurred :-)

Is it a Hyundai-made car (Hyundai and Kia nameplates)? Hyundai is notorious for not putting covers over the entry points to the engine and cabin air filters, and rodents LOVE to crawl up in there and make happy homes. In many Hyundai cars the cabin air filter is behind the glove box compartment. Check that too. My uncle had to put mesh over the openings in my Kia Soul.

And yeah check the wiring, in many cars, not just Hyundais, the wire insulation is made out of soybean based plastic so the companies can get climate regulator brownie points, and rodents love to munch on it. I've read of many cases where the rodents eat pretty much the entire wiring harness, and the insurance company totals the car.

I cannot rely on others for my spiritual and emotional liberation. I have to dig it out from deep within myself and grab it with my own hands.

The Internet totally sucks. It was a mistake.

I had more fun on Prodigy....before the Internet. Before hacking, firewalls and anti-virus concerns. And I still recall how depressed I was about having to go Whole Earth Access and buy a firewall program. Everything began to change.

Prodigy was just a way to access the internet. The internet existed as far back as the 1970s.

No- "Prodigy was an online service that operated from 1984 to 2001, before the widespread use of the Internet. It was one of the major online services in the 1990s, providing access to various networked services." -Wikipedia. Prodigy use involved a proprietary network and GUI before the Internet.

The Internet was "Arapanet" from 1972 to 1991. Closed to the public as a DOD communications research project.

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference. Idiots will be idiots, but I can change myself if I want to.
