A very sad day indeed. Saying goodbye to my Kawasaki Z-900 RS.

Murphy got a haircut. A rather severe one...

Related to my previous post "As though life as we remember it is over..." There's this, which is not good... hartmannreport.com/p/the-most-d...

I don't know how far back it goes, but current sociological researchers call it "anomie" - the perception of social breakdown, normlessness, and institutional failure. It's a major, driving factor behind increased public support for authoritarian governments and leaders. And it drives social media

Does everyone at every time in history believe that nothing is working the way it ought to? Like, it's all coming apart and has reached the point of no return? As though life as we remember it is over? Just wondering.

I love this so much. The Dancing is described as "Low Skill, High Confidence." It's the antidote to the weekend's news run... www.google.com/search?q=you...

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

My name is Inigo Montoya, You've read your last free article, Prepare to die.

Is this *supposed* to sound like a death threat?

Btw, this is not a "normal re-adjustment" or "politics" of a new administration with different priorities. This is a fascist movement systematically destroying, subverting and corrupting science because science is a guardrail to power and a necessity in the epistemic integrity of democracy.

This is not super-great...

Good Morning! Happy Thursday! (Friday Junior around here.) CBC's The Early Edition is on the air. Coming up - Tom Green is here to talk about going from TV and movies in LA to a quiet farm life in Ontario. That and a whole lot of other stuff. Listen here: www.cbc.ca/listen/live-... Your Weather:

Fog rolling back into Downtown Vancouver.

So lemme get this right. Trump wants to deport thousands of people by force who want to be Americans, whilst wanting to seize control of populations who don't want to be Americans and make them Americans by force?

In New West, that is! Lovely!

Well, apparently The Guardian appreciated Prime Minister Carney's speech at the WEF... www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Oh, and Happy 50th Birthday to this little guy. I am NOT selling this one.

In motorcycle news, I'm trading in two bikes (both of which do their thing very well) for one bike that does all the things very well. Meet the 2025 Honda Africa Twin Adventure-Sport 1100 EC DCT.

Trump, in bizarre message to Norway PM, says his losing the Nobel means the US is now more prone to war: “Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace” (reported by PBS’ Nick Schifirin)
