Nice one!

90+Gigabytes so far this month. For €12.99! Ya gotta love 5G and competition 😁 Just gotta be more disciplined on the social media usage, though. Wasting my life on Reels and similar addictive stuff on Baking, Rescue Doggies, and Indian Health and Safety violations. #48yup

WIFE: *cutting sandwich* do you want half of my sandwich ME: sure WIFE: which half ME: no the sand half

Is this "Your Sign" as some Redneck Comedy Tour guy used to say? Dot-com bubble nonsense (yes, I was taken in too 🥺) of 2001-ish all over again? A sneaker company "pivoting" to building AI requirements and selling services? Yeah right, that'll work. Don't walk away - run! www.bbc.com/news/article...

A quote I thought was ancient, but is 20th century, apparently: "When small men begin to cast big shadows, it means that the sun is about to set" - Lin Yutang So, are we about to experience "interesting times"? #dementia47 #iranwar #hormuz

Who will rid us of this turbulent pest? (I'm grumpy. Just paid €50 to get 24 LITRES of diesel - ⅓ of a tankful 😱) #TurbulentPest

This guy wargamed Iran for the Pentagon - in the Obama years. "They'll mine the Straits... Oil will go to maybe $150... They will fire missiles at everybody in the region...". How will it end? Have a listen - BBC production. www.bbc.com/audio/play/w... #iran #hormuz #offramp

This I was not expecting! Memes and rap - ouch! NSFW in the USA.

Dontcha just hate these smug barstewards with their well-insulated houses, heat pumps, solar panels, and electric cars? They just don't care about the price of heating oil, or diesel, like we do. Selling electricity back to the grid? They should be all taken out and...(sob) #smug #greta #begrudgery

How strange! Do these photos remind you of anyone, the badly fitting suit, the puffy hands, and the odd FTD-ish leaning forward? (Viktor Orban, Hungarian Prime Minister) #badlydressedfascists #friendsofPutin

Texan Don Henley sings "Desperado" live in 2015. Don has been telling Howard Stern that he wasn't happy with the classic 1975 recorded version of the song. Howard tells Don that here's his chance to sing it the way it should have been sung. youtu.be/igRJTKNBX5k?...

If you enjoyed (and understood the politics of) Deutschland 83, 86, and 89, or Le Carré spy stuff, there's a 4 part thriller based on a true story - "Herrhausen - The Banker and the Bomb". German with English subtitles. It's free to stream worldwide on RTE (Ireland). www.rte.ie/player/serie...

Second Geneva Convention This convention governs the treatment of shipwrecked military personnel at sea. Article 12 & 18 says: Take all possible measures to search for and collect the shipwrecked after a naval engagement. Protect them from further harm. Provide care regardless of nationality.

I will play that funky music for you. However, I see no reason for you to reference my race or gender. And I think doing it until you die is excessive and I will not be a part of that.

I see the Irish Times thinks a sewage plant is a "sewerage plant". There was a time when the IT called itself the paper of record. Imagine! O tempora, o mores... @irishtimes.com (Friday) #hiresomesubeditors

Here's an interesting couple of minutes from a boring Canadian: www.facebook.com/reel/1063557...

Thinking of investing in #AI? Here's one Google AI nonsensical search result! 😁😁 The answer to the crossword clue "At which he might be seen shaking streams at random? (8,6)" is SCENERY STUDIO. Explanation: "Shaking streams at random" is an anagram of "SCENERY STUDIO" (8 letters, 6 letters).😂😂

Ya gotta feel sorry for whoever gets #bovino next. They already know they are going to be short-staffed.

Cool!

Got word from my sources that what closed the Greenland deal was NATO's guarantee of 2 personal visits from Santa Claus. Unrestricted. No cameras in the room.

[email protected]: "You want to put his name on coins and buildings and park passes. You want to penalize people who cover up this shrine to Donald Trump. We take an oath to the Constitution. It seems all of you took an oath to Donald Trump."

Here's a cleanly formatted and complete copy of Mark Carneys superb speech at Davos. I'm tempted to say "Not all heroes wear a cape" but maybe "Cometh the hour, cometh the man" or Lao Tzu's “When the student is ready the teacher will appear.”?? #WhiteHouseToddler www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Really excellent speech by Carney. Refreshing to hear eyes wide open honesty. Now for our leaders to say "No" to the Toddler and let him have his little meltdown.

When Trump did that weird leaning stance on the W.H. lawn, rumours of FTD started. Now it's looking more and more likely. Here's an interesting analysis, going into the differences between FTD and the more familiar dementia/Alzheimer's. The point about patients INVENTING not just forgetting is key.

I like the Irish Times article headline:... Don't upset the toddler...😂 European leaders may soon drop the don’t-upset-the-toddler approach to Trump relations – The Irish Times share.google/U1fxKg4LdZAT...

If you go to little league games you can just walk up to the winners and knock them down and take the award.

Finally deactivated Twitter. Haven't really used it for a year, occasionally visited to get breaking news - BlueSky just doesnt cut it, yet. But revisiting today I was sad to see people I followed and enjoyed were still there, in amongst the noisy illiterates with little of interest to say. Adios.
