Thinker, amateur philosopher, a good day has at least 1 idea rolling around in my head. And a devout atheist, formerly an agnostic, formerly but still formally a Roman Catholic by birth. Please excommunicate me.

There's a lazy susan on our table She keeps her pill thingy on it and she always leaves it over hanging the edge, so when I tried to rotate it it bangs into something I've told her about this daily. Last night, it hit her glass, then knocked something else off She yelled at me, I need anger

So, I have stuff I've been trying to figure out what it is. This photo 16"x20" remains a mystery. Any idea of what year era it might have been taken?

When I was a kid, this was the only 2 way communication device in the house, and yes there were wrong number calls once and a while. But every number could be traced if needed. And it was in the kitchen, and might have been a party line.

I am amazed. I get a warning my subscription is going to expire every 3 days for weeks before it ends. And I'm told I can't renew. So after it was supposed to expire, it still works. Today, they announce They pulled the plug. It still works. Thankyou AI.

The tRumpster GOP is upset over the phone toll records. As taxpayers, it should be public record who our elected officials and their staff are calling and getting calls from. We can work on the details.

A GOP senator apparently had his facts wrong asking questions when he didn't get the answer he wanted called the witness a dirtbag. The GOP senator is a DIRTBAG.

So, there's a guy in a self driving car, he's on the phone. The car drifts over to the left and is riding against the curb. Sparks flying for 1/2 mile. I'm constantly asked why I don't feel safe driving.

I never watched many of the X Files episodes. I recently made an effort to stream the entire series. I did finally after about 6 weeks did them all. I am amazed how many of the conspiracy themes are being used by the tRump GOP today. Of course, it was originally on FOX.

Company says they only accept documents via FAX. My wife prepares the packet and goes to a company that chgs to FAX. She pays and receives a receipt that confirms it was received by the FAX number. The company says they never received it. Fuck FAX's. It's the GD 21st century.

tRump caused the price of gas to go up. tRump wants to lower the fuel economy requirements. Pay more to use more. Really?

In 7th grade all student both boys and girls took a semester of home economics. As a man, I know how to test the temp of a griddle, make poached eggs, and wash dishes. The girls also know how to cut and plane wood, a semester of wood shop. And both sexes learned how to deal with each other.

Want to have fun. If you are 75, instead of putting down the date you signed an important document, put the date you were born, and feed that into the system. I wasn't me that did this.

Not surprising. "A federal judge temporarily blocked President Donald Trump’s ban of three news outlets from the White House, ordering early Thursday that CNN, MS NOW and Politico must have their access restored."

The “law & order” party DGAF about law & order, unless it’s a law that favors them. They’re just like those fake “Christians”, aren’t they?

So I received a USPS mail from my health ins company. It's my address, by the name in the TO: is someone that has never lived at this address. I bought it from the original owner and my neighbor who's been here from the begining, agrees. Database error, software glitch, or something dubious?

I found out that my 2mo old new smart tv is only smart if connected to the internet. Our very reliable internet went down for a few hours. I got a DVD out and tried to change the input with the button on the side. I was locked into a screen telling me the internet was down. Modern engineering?

I've been looking but yet to find one. A tool, where a retired couple can take SS, a pension, some predictable interest and compute what IRA distribution they can take to minimize their 2026 IRS taxes. Hey, the tax laws today aren't going to change.
