I have a small footprint on FB, primarily for bagpipe-related groups. My new rule is: when I see some AI slop, it’s time to leave the site. And it works! I waste way less time.

Why I Broke Up with LA by Lena Dunham:

The first person to discover a link between increased levels of CO2 and #globalwarming was a New Yorker named Eunice Newton Foote. Read her 1856 paper, and how she went unacknowledged for more than a century, here: publicdomainreview.org/collection/f... #earthday #climatechange

"Most people prefer to associate food with comfort, joy, and their grandmother’s kitchen, not the boiling of the planet. In general, it helps to focus on the appeal of the meals, rather than their lack of meat; people want to feel like they’re getting something, not being denied something."

The kids have a friend over for the night, and they're watching Pirates of the Caribbean. Klaus Badelt's score is a CARBON COPY of Wojciech Kilar's score for Coppola's Dracula. I love Kilar's score, and it's making me mad.

For Saint Patrick's Day, here are my performances of the epic of Finn MacCool, the magical Irish superhero of past, present, and future. I love how these stories weave magic, history, and the power of the wilderness into one cloth. Here's the link: www.jayleeming.com/finn-maccool...
