The culture wars, the race wars, the gender wars...all smoke screens for the war they don't want you to fight. The class wars.

Thank you for coming to my Teddy talk.

@sbagen.bsky.social Dems have had a long time now to become thoroughly addicted to big-donor/special-interest money. Would they know how to survive without it? Could they? Are they seriously likely to try? The status-quo is too cozy for them. The Minority are still securely on the "gravy-train".

@wired.com Anyone who thinks they're consequential should reflect on the impact Sir Tim Berners Lee has had. All the "Internet Moguls" are standing on his shoulders: us.macmillan.com/books/978037...

@democrats.senate.gov Democrats must demonstrate that they can make "The American Dream" real again. "The Dream" was the shared purpose that United the States. Each individual or family able to improve their lives strengthened the society.

@govdanmckee.bsky.social The long-running contract dispute between United Healthcare & Brown University is leaving many Rhode Island residents without reasonable &/or affordable health-insurance choices. Please investigate.

Socialised medicine: prevention is better than cure. Capitalised medicine: there’s no money in prevention. Or in cure, for that matter. Bring on really uncomfortable chronic conditions that can be mitigated with expensive medications.

@whitehouse.senate.gov How much more history has to burn before people start taking Climate Change seriously? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_C...

@rhysgrainger.bsky.social. You have a good eye for interesting subjects & compositions. Really nice pix.

I really like Leberwurst / liver-pate, particularly chicken liver. This recipe is simple & the results are delicious: 101things.wordpress.com/2006/04/02/c... #Food #Recipes #Cooking

Buy an old house & immediately spend far too much remedying faults & deficiencies. Buy a new house & shortly spend far too much remedying shoddy construction &/or an unsuitable site. Would you prefer to be burned, or scalded?

@gigspanner.bsky.social Will digital downloads of "Turnstone" be available sometime?

What format is the "Uncharted" download? Website does not seem to say.

PSA: As it is coming to the season, there is NEVER any excuse for a public display of male feet.

@theregister.com Should there be apprenticeships for network engineers? Definitely. Sysadmins too. IMO both are best regarded as specialized trades & both are facing a shortage of skilled people. And if anyone might be in doubt, the modern world won't continue running without them.

I love this

@kilianschoenberger.bsky.social Thank you for posting lovely photos of a lovely part of the world.

@axios.com Re "America might have reached "peak truck"". Look at the numbers in your story. They say the average price of a new truck is @ the same as the annual income of the household likely to want one. The manufacturers erroneously believed they had created a sustainable market.

@martinrak.bsky.social Always a particular pleasure to see your photos.
