At some point we also have to deal with the fact that one of the two parties is openly hostile to democracy. If you have to win big every election or else the country falls into despotism we're all just playing Russian roulette every few years

“… I crawled …” Words take work. Maintenance. A little cleaning and scrubbing. But sometimes it’s worth it. #typewriter #poetry

It’s so good to be out of the extreme heat for a bit.

The first storm of our much-hyped El Niño season of rain actually arrived yesterday. On and off rain throughout the day and night, into this morning, has officially turned off the heat wave … for now … by mid week, we’ll be back over 80 again. #typewriter #poetry #climatechange

Tens of thousands of protestors are facing off against tens of thousands of police in the capital of India, as they demand the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner who has illegally deleted millions of people from India's electoral rolls. Biggest democracy story on the planet, not in BSky.

When a tsunami wave recedes, it is called a “drawback.” The rapid retreat of flood waters drags boats and cars and entire coastal towns out into the open ocean. #typewriter #poetry

It’s supposed to be below 90 today, for the first time in several days. This morning, the marine layer of coastal cloud cover survived past 6:00AM. It has provided a whiff of cooler temps … and it is much welcome. #typewriter #poetry

… hopefully we both get cooler temps …

It’s easily the hottest I can remember in 40yrs here. My tiny older apartment with no AC bakes like an oven. The dry air blowing through windows is like a hair dryer.

Have I mentioned that it’s hot, here in San Diego? I may have forgotten. By the way, which one of you forgot to sacrifice a goat or a virgin or a virgin goat to the sun god/s to keep it/them happy? #typewriter #poetry

40yrs now in San Diego, and this is without doubt the worst heatwave I’ve yet to experience - and I know more and worse are undeniably on the way. #typewriter #poetry #helltober

There are times, when the sun is at the right angle, where the red ink portion of the ribbon glows like it is on fire, or is the literal blood flowing through the machine - an open vein. I’ve never been able to get the phone’s camera to accurately capture it & likely never will. #typewriter #poetry

Get a Fender! They’ve done excellent mint greens. This is such a pretty little machine and fun to type on.

… and thought it was broken. It doesn’t have a case, which is a bummer, but that doesn’t effect how it types. #typewriter #hermesbaby #howthefuckisitOctoberalready

A bit of color and Swiss precision for October. It’s such a bummer how poorly the iPhone color processor works … the iconic mint green is so much more impressive in person. This Hermes Baby was another wonderfully inexpensive find, since the reseller couldn’t figure out the carriage lock …

Today was not a poetry day, and tomorrow is October 1st, so the Olympia De Luxe SM9 is getting put back into the case. I thoroughly enjoyed my time on the German behemoth. Leaning towards another ultraportable for October, but no decision made yet. #typewriter #nopoetry

Today is ironically, possibly, an easier day to share these words, given that Bluesky seems to be imploding on itself again. May this step further bring you some kind of "peace" in the wake of these experiences and your survival.

It’s much more humid here today than what is normal for San Diego. It definitely feels a lot more like growing up in Alabama, especially with the tropical storms moving through. If this is an accurate sign of what the coming El Niño is bringing … it’s gonna be wet. #typewriter #poetry #humidity

At the Moulin Rouge (Au Moulin Rouge)

"At the Moulin Rouge" by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec captures the vibrant social scene of the famous Parisian cabaret with its vivid colors and dynamic composition. The painting reflects Lautrec's intimate perspective on the nightlife, showcasing both the clientele and entertainers of the Moulin Rouge.

Nice. Have always had a soft spot for those machines. Excellent ultraportables.

Change isn’t easy for me - the big changes in life, new phases, pivots, resets. I’ve had LOTS of them - including 3 marriages and divorces, and 1 of 2 children moving onto adulthood (the 2nd w/ one foot out the door). BIG changes. Moving into a new pot w/ fresh soil is a shock. #typewriter #poetry
