What a mess account management has turned into. I’m trying to cancel various recurring subscriptions that my elderly mother has gotten involved with. Her use of multiple email IDs does not help. Easiest would be to just cancel linked credit card.

Back in the US to visit mom. Bummed I did not get to see Kristi Noem video in airport blaming Dems for shutdown. POS.

The music cuts off awkwardly before the end, but this is an incredible NYC Halloween costume compilation.

Low energy.
DUDE. Trump is walking around the Japanese Prime Minister like a lost zombie running on low brain fuel.

I had to watch this video twice. Once to say WTF to Trump. And twice to say WTF to the insane headlines on the news ticker!

WTF!!

On TGV to house in Brittany. Listening to Kraftwerk’s “Europe Endless”. For now, the world is ok.

5 hour drive from Paris to Lyon to drop off daughter’s stuff. Now 2 hour train ride back. No contest which one I prefer.

Our history is littered with charlatans and crooks who all talked “so confidently”. There’s even an English term for them, though women too can be members. In many ways it is the time of the death of expertise, but it is also the rise of the hunger to follow and be lead.
Watching the Titan documentary on Netflix and one of the former employees or contractors says, “I mean it was clear he was a genius, he talked so confidently!” Dude you are talking about someone who knowingly, for ten years, sent people to depths of 4000 in a sub he knew could implode at any time.

The Blish books were my first collectible. They were for sale at a grocery store or drugstore I went to with my mom. I ended up with all of them I think, even took them to 2nd grade one day to show off. I had a few of the ADF books as well but Blish was a hit for me.
my love language is “I saw this at a yard sale / in a free pile / at a thrift shop and grabbed it for you immediately” and can I just say that if I gave out Straight Guy of the Year awards my D&D friend Stephen earned one for gifting me with this bounty tonight, I did cry a little
