In the early Bronze Age, people kept using flint tools for a long time. But the quality of the tools found in the archeological record declines steadily until the craft of making flint tools was essentially lost.

So, Google is a fascist mouthpiece too now apparently, having changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico in Maps and disabled posting so it can't be corrected. Damn. I rely heavily on Google apps so cutting off that tumor won't be easy.
To hell with Google and all bootlicking fascist shills.

I was rooting for Team USA in the 4 Nations Final, but those disgusting maga-nazis behind the US bench made me vomit. So now I'm all in for Team Canada.
To hell with Dumbpf and all who enable his villainy.

Sabrina sings "My honey bee, come get this pollen," rhyming with "laugh so often." Thing is, male flowers produce pollen. Plus, bees aren't after pollen, but nectar. And the rhyme isn't great.

Not that I was interested in the Chiefs Eagles Super Bowl anyway, but the fact the NFL removed the "End Racism" signs from the end zones in deference to whiny baby hitler, who is expected to attend, makes me physically ill. To hell with Dumbpf and to hell with the NFL.

In case it wasn't obvious, the GOP cult leader and his psychotic minions are destroying what's left of our civil society to further empower and protect the oligarchy.

This is a great time to reacquaint yourself with the musical Hadestown -- or acquaint yourself with it if not already. There's so very much to love about it, and it feels like a salve we need right now.

The James Webb Space Telescope has delivered data that opens a whole new chapter in human understanding of the cosmos. Look into it. The 101 books are being rewritten. What we're learning will put some things into a different perspective.

So it turns out the "milk gravy" my Mom made with any number of basic dishes is the same thing as Bechamel, one of the five "mother sauces" in French cuisine. And the gravy that I routinely make with vegetarian stock is basically Velouté, another mother sauce. Who knew?

I'm in denial. It was minus twelve out this morning, it's the middle of December, and I think I'll get the convertible out at least one more time before winter. Maybe even a motorcycle ride. And why not? The world seems about to burn, and it’s freezing cold out there. Might as well ride.
