Finally obtained my PhD in Hermitology. Center/Left supporter of all liberal democracies. No patience for conspiracy theories or disinfo.
Today is the first I heard of him. Such a shame. I've been scouring YouTube for his songs.
I don't know which is worse... that I didn't know about him or that if I had, how much more I'd be missing him.

I used to like it, but MAGA's takeover of it has dampened the joy. I know some day it will be released from MAGA's grip and we can all love it again.

I can't remember all the details but the 50-60s show "What's My Line"... They had a pilot as the guest. It was a woman who was the pilot and the host referred to her as a "lady pilot". Like that was different from a "regular" pilot. Really struck me as condescending, even if it wasn't meant.

I had a dog barely survive after coming in contact with blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) bloom in our creek. Too much run off from all the farm fields. When I bought the property, the creek was a selling point. Now... not so much.

I had one of these in 1984. If I could afford the gas, I'd love to have it again.

Believe it or not, you're lucky. I can't buy readers. I have one far sighted eye & one near sighted eye + astigmatism, so readers aren't an option. I'm happy that you found something to help you and happy that you are doing the #AT40 here.
I appreciate you and your Saturday contributions 😘

Oh, no need to explain. You were correct, as I think it's a generational thing, not a type of addition thing. It's sad that so many people now don't have a place to just decompress and unplug... To just let their minds wander where it will and not where it's directed by the algorithm.

And to your response about smokers... I'm a smoker. But while walking in the woods I don't smoke. That is the one place I feel at peace. No stress so no need to light one up. I'm thankful to have 80 acres to wander about. If it wasn't for the land I'm lucky enough to have, I'd smoke like a chimney.

I was talking with a younger family member about the number of apps they had on their phone. It was a lot (over 40!). I only had 5. I guess I'm not in the generation that depends on them, so to me it was odd. I worry about the younger generation's dependency on them.

For a minute I thought this was from Newsom's official account, not the parody one! 😂

I've seen this rumor circulated quite a bit, but no proof to back up the claim. While not paying his workers is definitely believable, I'm not sure this current rumor is true. www.snopes.com/fact-check/u...

Regardless of the time change, I feed them every morning. Either after our morning walk or earlier on days I work. The hardest thing for them to adjust to is waiting later for the sun to come up for our walk. So to somewhat answer your question, we go by sun time more than clock time.

I changed all five clocks last night. Four of them correctly. The 5th one I moved forward instead of back & now it's 2 hours off 😂
