What's over there?
I feel this. Thought I had full on alexithymia for a long time. Then "How Emotions Are Made" kicked me in face (brain?).

Most of those cliché exercises are like trying to diagnose engine trouble in car that's wrapped around a telephone pole. Yeah. It's not running. That's not really the problem.

Not my characterization. The evidence of that experiment being trash is well documented. Attempts were made at replication, they failed so hard it formed a commune.

They tried that. It failed.

It's amazing how well his coat holds in the heat

It's hard to believe meadows used to be filled with these. Now we have to plant and protect them from invasive species.

At the base of a 100+ year old dam - Keller Lake in central Wisconsin

I try to make out here at least once a year, I always expect it to be gone.

This is something I think about a lot. It's like going to the optometrist. "better... Or worse... Better... Or worse."

The Oblivion - but not Skyrim is really interesting. Did you like the leveling system in Oblivion?

I think they did that, it's called tempeh. I have always thought of it as Tofu - but gritty. Looks like a suet cake. Definitely not as fun to eat if you don't prepare it well.

Second on the "it's a tree" - a weird tree - with goofy fern like leaves, sometimes nasty thorns, sometimes big bean pods.

Other cross streets will probably be "elm" or "oak" if the sub division was laid out by a typical arboreal fetishist.

TIL "school glue" is just PVA (Polyvinyl acetate) less poisonous than I expected.

Cat looks so serious. Here is ours, for balance.

What?! That was probably my favorite part.

Wow. I thought you catnapped Bob!

Beautiful. And majestic. Like this one.

Weird? Definitely. In the house? For sure. Loves me? Loveable, but not sure if it's mutual.

It went back to barely above freezing, brown, and depressing. An update on the tulips and another picture from warmer times.

That's why I have so many questions. My wife and I often walk to/through our MASSIVE local one, which I think the city owns. It's very well taken care of and we are usually the only people there.

Reminds me of this fun little peice of history.

Reminds me of one of my favorite "quiet part loud" documents from the Trilateral Commission - "The Crisis of Democracy" (1976)

Where they basically say there is a crisis and that crisis is *democracy actually happening*.

The whole thing is filled with amazing reactionary hand wringing.

This comes up all the time when I talk to conservatives. Pisses me off. They're wrong. It's always "elite panic". The Katrina survivors were great to each other for the most part. They took supplies. It was literally cops that stole cars and did the "looting" of reactionary nightmares.

The frozen tundra is showing signs of life. Looking forward warmth and green.

It could be the wind turbines. The static interference does not show up on the NWS radar, likely because it's a composite image.

TWSBI Diamond 580

I have bought half a dozen others that were way more expensive and they have all been disappointing. It has written hundreds of pages. It's been beat up, dropped, the cap is cracked, the feed is damaged, it's constantly a mess, but still dependable. I keep coming back to it.
