Here I am eating from a jar of Aldi Pickles and listening to the U of Twente SDR because I have a gut feeling something is going on tonight.

My daughter and I visited the house we lived in when she was a baby, and she was shocked a 29-year-old Navy guy could afford a nice house in a safe neighborhood. That wasn’t crazy in 1996 — but today, a nice house is out of reach for so many young people. That has to change.

And I guess in another Special K fueled bender, he ends up revieling the man behind the curtain, in other words, who most of those trolls and major influencers on his platform actually are. Oops 🤭

*Ralph Wiggum noises*

That was unexpected. Wonder what blackmail he had on her.

Again? Extorting the media, while letting his guys (Faux, OANed, Newsmin) lie in ways that get people murdered via a fashion reminiscent of blood libel while he gets literal billion dollar paychecks from this now is the one of the biggest double standards I see.

Oh my!

I like to refer to this building and its identical twin across the street as Comcast's revenge, as when the sun shines just right towards the later hours it dazzles you I have found.

Things that make you say hmmm. Unless the flatcars the racks are on are hitting 50 years old (FRA has a 50 year limit for most freight equipment, old ones may be there), looks like it's going to be a tough year for auto sales, if it isn't already.

Something tells me life is about to get more complicated for Central Florida's 2nd largest Ambulace Chaser.

So for once it was one of our folks from the Brevard Containment Zone and not "Massachusetts Transplant Man" who caused chaos as the news often confuses for. So for the 2nd time since 1/6, I apologize for the leaking of the Brevard Contianment Zone.

Listening to the LEGO Island soundtracks (plus a few mixes), such a great childhood memory. Remember playing it on a AST from 1995 at a frame rate of 0.2 FPM. Still managed to beat it then somehow.

I just realized, what if we are just in a wierd state of sleep paralysis, but actually moving around, and she was just the Hat Man the whole time.

It's a sad day when in journalism when British tabloid press can now be taken more seriously than legit traditional sources. With reality falling apart, it won't be long until VoK on shortwave starts sounding reasonable and not completely insane...

Sometimes I gotta wonder if we're in a Temu version of the 1960s with worse music and more depressing airliners. youtu.be/qfZVu0alU0I?...

Either someone is seeing the USD to have the same worth as the Polish Złoty had in 1989 soon or we are litgitimately on our way to have the first trillionare. <sigh> fun times for all I guess...

One of those odd TIL things.

Listening to my mom parrot miracle claims and prices from an advertisement reminds me there is a large swathes of the population that would do whatever insanely and potentially fatal suggestion if an ad told them to do it, no matter how nonsensical or too good to be true it is.

I'm just gonna put it like this. Most of the world's problems of today would been avoided if they just listened to Tadeusz Kościuszko (aka Poland's Kahless.)

That moment when you realized you realized that apologist lackey you had a 30 minute flame war with was something that would fail a Turing test...

Looks like another speechwriter. Seems to be a prerequisite to joining them.

Mark my words on this. The whole 1970s ceiling fan logo thing is a PR stunt like ihob, and they'll continue with the current logo.

I guess once this outage dies, they'll move on from cheerleaders to Flight Attendants, where we have to remind them that male flight attendants were common before the 1940s and that what we associate as FAs from the 40s to the 60s was largely marketing to attract business travelers.

Looks like Beef prices are about to skyrocket. Seems that the spread of the worm is moving around pretty quick.

There are 3 types of railfans, the typical just sit and BS and have fun chilling on the side of the tracks ones. The foamers (buncha wierd kids who really wanna work for the road, but do dumb stuff like like tresspass into yards late at night and report crews to their bosses for being cool.) (1)

History really does repeat itself, and more frequently than we'd like to think. And yes, I'm aware of who wrote Reagan's playbook in 1980 as well.

If the Party's latest automotive propaganda is something to go by, looks like we are on our way to seeing the Dodge 124 become a thing.

Every time I'm on Facebook, I see @orlandoweekly.bsky.social post something, then I see Zuckky boy's far right engagement bots likely posting from a tower in Moscow's financial district. There is no way the same 5 people are watching that page 24/7 and posting inflammatory stuff almost instantly.

Damn, what with the whole 1970s-1990s dropping like flies simultaneously lately? Just heard Chuck Mangione and the guy who played Theo from the Cosby show died.

Another CEO gets away with manslaughter again...

On the subject of the list. Mark my words, it'll go full circle, and they'll release the list, but it'll oddly enough have just their political opponents, including people who could not have been there because they were not born yet or were still literally children themselves, and none of the knowns

I don't care what folks say, "I feel fantastic" is still my favorite Taylor Swift song!

Holy hypercapitalism, I'm sure it's awesome and taste great, but I think I'll stick with E. Wedel or maybe Tony's if I really feel like setting my bank account on fire when it comes to mass produced stuff. Not to mention some of E Wedel's products has stuff with the good stuff in it. 🥴

The Russian word for hell is "Ад", which is can be transliterated as "Ad", which is quite appropriate for something else that is shortened to Ad...

Everything would be less sucky if only Kircheis were here. 😞

*Sees BBC News asking for paid subscriptions.* *Ends up going to Deutsche Welle (DW) for news instead.* To add, been increasingly avoiding BBC News since it seemed the quality of their reporting had been going down. Why would I pay $50 a year for that?

If this war will be known for one thing is all the AI slop being spammed, so... much... AI.... Slop.... so far I've seen out of scale planes, planes that look wrong, soldiers typing on a pad of paper, and then magically pulling out a Phone receiver from a flat piece of paper, just for an example...

Goals in life, to get an FSD Nysa 522, convert it into an ice cream truck and use it to play the Swedish Rhapsody numbers station while driving around aimlessly.

I may have bought another Moomins themed 1:400 scale MD-11 from Ebay.

Hearing 99 Luftballoons in Enlighs is terrible. What's next, Shakespeare in English instead of the original Klingon?

The fun part of the stock market rn is you can check it every hour and say to yourself "what shit is he up to now?"

Saw the commercial vehicle FHiPpies and the Green and Whites (not of your Florida Sherriff viariety) doing a large scale Łapanka on the 528 today (long straight of Expressway with almost no offramps for 35 miles). It was crazy. The FHP was doing dump trucks, the other ones were doing work vans..

So, it seems lately AL Gore's rythem has blessed us all with something new but hidden Sunday evening. Also why can't I fall back asleep, and why have I been more productive at work than normal?

People I know I CA: yeah CA is pricy but it's usually good and chill. Facebook Boomerbots: Oh my God CA! It's a North Korea dictatorship with no-go zones like Englandland and everyone lives in filth in squalor and does their business in the streets while being slaves to people *we* don't like!

I don't usually collect more modern (post Y2K era) airframes. The ones I get are usually from those close to me, but I made an exception here. Here is an Transaero 747-400. Saw the real one while driving around Melbourne airport awaiting scrapping on 5/16/16 after TSO went bust. Airframe hist (1/2)

American Air Museums: we got this new cockpit section of this big plane, the rest of the body we turned into these neat Keychains you can buy for $74.98 each! German Air Museums: WE SHALL TAKE THIS METAL BIRD WHO DEFIED NATURE AND PLACE IT ON TOP OF THE BUILDING WITH A NEAT SLIDE GOING DOWN IT!

Growing up in a culture that's all about saving face that my parents were even afraid of being slightly laughed at, I had to play secretary for them my entire life even now in my 30s. It sucked so much for me, when they wondered off that it makes me wish there was "Polskego język, wcisnąć trójkę."

Had done this fun kit last weekend in the garage. Finally got a USB lead to solder to it to let it get powered up. It was also fun seeing the LEDs light up individually when checking their connectivity with my multimeter.

One of my newer diecasts and a small project I hope to start soon. The unpainted one is an An-2 (sold as a Y-5), I hope to get work done on it soon. The diecast is of a Canadian Dept of transport Vickers Viscount 700. Delivered in 1955 and retired in 1982.

Well, it seems that the Chumbawamba catalogue (yeah they had more than one song) is more relevant than ever today!
