Very quiet. Retired RN, sober since 7/9/92. No idea what I’m doing

Not kidding

My knees hurt
Seriously friends, I follow a lot of podcasts, and they cover all kinds of issues, but mainly political and historical like that. I was looking at my list to listen to for tomorrow and all the podcast from yesterday out of date completely..

What a day

I would surely love to have an unfettered discussion with the senior USMC Gunnery Sergeant in the group being sent to LA.

It might be enlightening

Always listens to the sergeants and the Chiefs

Never the lieutenants

Always

A self-aggrandizing, anti vaccine, raw milk drinking, AIDS denialist who believes he is smart, but is the personification of Dunning-Kruger, and who was called a predator by his cousin is in charge of HHS. It is going to get worse.

Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet.

ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

I am sitting in a public library working on a grant, and a grandmotherly woman is patiently teaching a small boy how to read at the table next to me. Another woman is knitting nearby. The children’s section is packed with kids. Things in my country are bleak, but libraries are where I find hope. ❤️

Within like a week a solid half the country will believe deep in their souls that LA would have burned to the ground if it weren't for military intervention.

One of the coolest features of the Agami Heron is its gorgeous, flowing crest that flutters as it poses and preens. But I've never seen it up close before with the details and textures.

Feeling odd and getting the idea of how much the world has moved on in that my first reaction to seeing the line of burning self driving cars in LA is to think about the amount of incredibly toxic fumes coming out of those fires along with the tear gas.

This is a public health emergency as well.
