Thanks for following me (back) here again.

Photo summer 2024 at Stamps game with my friend @booshmeister. Life is good.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Love this!

Yup, I love my 80s music, as do friends like @fionamattatall.bsky.social @dupuisj.bsky.social @booshmeister.bsky.social who also reach backwards and forwards a decade or too.

It's all about the age, or edge, of 17.

Many of you know I work from home, and if I can get away with it around phone calls, will have YouTube music videos cranked to get me going in the morning, or drag me through a slow afternoon.

My tastes in danceable music are eclectic, but likely not proprioreceptive.

New US dietary guidelines elevate meat and full-fat dairy, ignite protein debate: 'Most Americans already eat plenty'
Americans are now advised to eat 1.2-1.6g protein per kg of bodyweight per day vs the current RDA of 0.8g in the 2025-30 dietary guidelines.

Pleased to announce my Bluesky post below already has more engagement than the top tweet on X from Canada’s governing Liberal caucus
Do Canadian MPs actually connect with the public on X?

I looked at RTs and views for every tweet* sent by Liberal MPs yesterday

Out of 46 tweets, 21 Liberal MPs racked up a combined 475 retweets

34% had zero RTs. Only 17% got more than 10 RTs

3 tweets accounted for over half of all engagement

Trump could remove Powell in May. Why can’t he wait? Because the world is dumping dollars. Why? Because the USA administration is illegitimate. Trump is accelerating the fall of the west in the worst possible way. #impeach #imprison #POTUS #thug #administration #uspoli #usfolly

On Jan 1st, I abandoned my Xitter account. I left it up because my old posts contain data that some there might find useful. And to be honest, I log in to lurk and see what shit is going on there. But I don't post.

Is this enough? I ask genuinely.

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.
Jerome Powell: "This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation."

THAT'S A CLEAR THREAT
If you mention he's a murderer, we'll murder more of you.
Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand
