Here’s what I aspire to.

*A Prayer For Later Years*

Lord, you know that I am growing older.

Keep me from becoming too talkative, and particularly keep me from falling into the tiresome habit of expressing an opinion on every subject.

I see this just when I thought I accomplished something profound 🙄

The Kennedy Center website has been offline for a week now. Something is going on here that a reporter should look into.

Thank you Hulu for not allowing me to log in today my account for 25 minutes so that I missed the kick off of the show. I really appreciate that 🙄.

This makes for both riveting and inspiring reading.
You really need to read this book. And this is why I founded We the People Defend, because it is citizen warriors who are going to protect democracy in these fraught times.

White House press corps; Based on the UN vote today in support of Russia, the only question you should be asking is why has the US shifted to supporting authoritarian regimes? Do not stop asking that question until you get an honest answer? If you can’t do that, ask your BBC colleagues.

One of the goals of the White House press corps should be to rattle Karoline Leavitt so badly that she storms off the podium in a rage.

This is the first I’ve seen this.
Trump official announces that Trump has signed an executive order claiming that only the president can speak for “what the law is”

I just sent a ‘add a place’ request to Google to add Gulf of Mexico with the location being 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue (the White House). It will get rejected but I also included a harsh comment regarding the change. Who knows, maybe millions will follow suit and they’ll get the message.

You could fire every person running the government and their salary and benefits would barely amount to a rounding error in the US Government’s budget. Call them liars when they make this claim. They will replace everyone they fire with loyalists.

If you to really know the details around what happened re: last nights crash, this is the person you want to follow. Every journalist that reports on aviation should be using Juan Brown as their source for reliable information.

@trishdish.bsky.social Hi Trish! I looked at Pete’s friends list and thought this was you, but couldn’t be sure until you followed me. Crazy times we’re living through.

Saw two fun and touching movies tonight; My Old Ass with Aubrey Plaza, and Snack Shack, both on Prime. They won’t win awards but they are very entertaining with a heart.

It should be nice to regularly be adding followers, but what I’m seeing now most of the time are from scam accounts that bring zero value. One of the downsides of social media I suppose.

I repost this as someone who has been on the fence about retreating from the fray because I don’t know if my psyche can handle the next administration. Being forced to live in a constant state of outrage is exhausting. We need to resist and oppose.

What is going on with my recent followers? There seems to be an inordinate amount of young, attractive, and well-off women from Asia who want to follow an oldish, nobody, white guy for his profound opinions on subjects they likely have no interest in. It’s not flattering; it annoys me.

Saw ‘Wicked’ in the theatre tonight as if I was seeing it for the first time, even though I saw the musical in London with my wife and daughters in 2007. I must have been distracted because I can barely recall anything about the performance.

I’m watching Senna’s F1 career from the F1 TV archive and it’s fascinating. 1984 with Toleman was hopeless because of the car; Monaco in the rain being the sole exception. In 1985 he probably would not f won the championship if his Lotus was as reliable as the McLaren.

Show of hands; who has watched Senna on Netflix?
