Extra- judicial killing is wrong and illegal - unless you live in a facist country and think you can get away with it. So what now? Is the US a facist country under tRUMP?

Education is one of supports of Democracy. An educated populace will support fair and just and reasonable governance. The statistics below offer insight into 'how' the US elected such a dangerous buffon as president. And how US democracy is at risk. Closing the Dept of Education is a huge mistake.

Interesting pic from February 2022 I found on my phone, Queensland, Australia. I still get fooled with the Samsung folder structure sometimes.

Un- fu>^#^&)ing believable. A foreign base on US soil (?!) I thought Australia was the exception to that concept with US controlled Pine Gap, US marines in Darwin, the Chinese with a 99 year lease on port land in Darwin and a possible submarine base in Western Australia = a dangerous precedent.

Holy shit. Things are really getting crazy in the U.S. I was taught to never point a gun (loaded or unloaded) ar ANYONE unless you intend to kill them. This is so scary. I can't imagine living or visiting the US now.

Had a great trip around Sado Island, west of Niigata, Japan. Beautiful, warm but not hot day.

Still on holiday in Japan. A Shimizu Shinto Shrine. You can see Mt Fuji from the port but it was a hazy day so not good for pics. Check out the street scene in the background. There are banners and flags. Plus the Japanese cultivate moss. I have seen moss and tiny fern forest gardens on this trip.

We don't really need AI and big expensive data centres that use lots of power to run them and water to cool them. Let's make producing renewable energy to run your AI facility a mandatory requirement. If not, let's wait until we have dealt with the the environmental crisis first.
