I drove for the last time on the autobahn (sniff 😢) yesterday at 170km/hr (105mph) yesterday. My old car did easily 136 mph on the autobahn, and I really will miss being able to drive so fast!
But Sunday morning I fly to Australia, and will have to be content with a max of 110kph (70mph) 😱

So, my apartment is finally empty and clean (apart from the wine I am expecting my neighbors to drink, because I can’t take it with me)!
I hand over the apartment and car tomorrow (which I also cleaned inside and out today!), and then a final dinner with my FWB on Saturday night.

I guess now they reclassified humans as white males with no disabilties.
"War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength"
"Countries with state subsidies for abortion, transgender-friendly policies for children, hate speech laws and affirmative action policies will now be considered to be violating human rights under rules imposed at the [US] State Department..."

I've mounted a landline phone next to my bathroom mirror because every now and then I like to pretend I'm visiting my twin in jail.

A lovely video of a manta feeding on all the good things attracted to the light behind our boat!

One of my dive buddies made a great video of the highlights of our trip last September.
You see white tip reef sharks, a batfish getting its gill cleaned, some nurse sharks (could gum you!) and eagle rays, which I have only ever seen singly!

If you think modern speculums are uncomfortable......😬
Vaginal speculum (c.1820) used to apply leeches to a woman’s cervix to remove excess blood thought to cause illness. This speculum used a scissor-like action to expand. It locked open, freeing the physician’s hands to apply the leeches.

So today someone came and took my 3 tall bookcases, 3 vases, some bowls, a towel stand, and my entire Buddha collection! The movers forgot to take 2 drawers and a cupboard from the kitchen, but i also so managed to find takers for some bowls, glasses, and a coffee pot!

Well, I guess I won't be visiting my friend in the US any time soon.
1. I don't want to be disappeared at the border because I am a woke left winger
2. Air travel is a horror story right now
3. Shootings
4. They want to deny visas to fatties and diabetics. My BMI is currently 26, but I am diabetic 🤷

How do you get the old self interested lot out and replace them with young democrats willing to fight? Can you put someone younger and better against them in a primary or something, or does the Democrat party not allow that?
In any case as bad as they are, they are the lesser of two evils.
Tonight Democrats proved that old quip.

If a genie gave Democrats 3 wishes, they'd negotiate it down to 1, and then wish for something they think Republicans will like.

We need a true opposition party now more than ever. Because this aint it.

Also, how can the country afford this, if there is no money for food or Medicare? The USA already spends more per head on military than any other country, but I guess all those donations from weapons manufacturers have to be paid for.
#Gift I cannot read even one newspaper without choking anymore. The Trump admin is too insane. Now the US is going into wartime "defense" production, per ex Fox News talking head Hegseth.

Won't this again boost #inflation when we are not at war?

Hegseth Vows to Put U.S. Weapons Production on Wartime Footing
The bureaucracy has put the military in danger of falling behind rivals, the defense secretary said, so the Pentagon is changing how it buys stuff—from weapons to software.

Doesn't this mean these guys are really planning a war? Probably against Venezuela to get their oil? They are certainly not planning to use it to help Ukraine
