Enjoy Vivian Morelli's terrific article in GQ, "These super stylish watches hit that mid-range sweet spot." There are wonderful wristwatches here. I'm delighted to be a part of this article.

These super stylish watches hit that mid-range sweet spot
Looking for a watch that's not too expensive and not too fancy, but very much the kind you'll want to show off to your mates?

Japan peeps and others who live in disaster-prone places:

Bluetooth mesh communication apps work if the internet and cellular networks fail after an earthquake or other disaster.

Messages hop from phone to phone until they reach their destination.

I'm using the mesh app Bitchat. bitchat.free

Two-tone watches are well and truly back baby – and not just for the Patrick Bateman wannabes

Iran is shooting people in the streets; so is the Trump-Miller regime.

Trump's government went from authoritarian leaning to murderous very quickly.

I am one small voice.
I hope Miller, Bovino, Noem, and the other henchmen are tried for their murders.
I will not stop speaking out against tyranny. When America is free again, I want my children to know I was on the side of the Constitution.

ICE is a murderous organization; it is anti-American, anti-Constitution.

ICE must be abolished and all those goons who have committed crimes against Americans should be arrested and put on trial. This includes the henchmen at the top, such as Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, and Gregory Bovino.
