Orbital released their set from Glastonbury 1994, take your meloxicam or aleve (if you haven’t gone to the dr yet for your hips.)

Ok, the R2 performance is a beast. Unfortunately one tire costs more than four for the CX-3 I just got rid of.

Oh no, we missed the text where they asked us to wake them up before the Azerbaijan race at 7, and the house is totally quiet.

There are four 15-17 year old young women and NBs watching Twilight in our loft. They’ve been commenting from minute 1. I think this is hate watching. Not so young Wilson One turns 17 today. They spent their first 3 weeks of their life in the NICU. Now they’re in dual enrollment college and HS…

I mean, I know they want attention. I know they have no tradition. I know I cannot (and will not speak) for the church. At this point I don’t even know what this is supposed to be? It’s so far removed from anything of actual substance I can only pity them.

Clickfix attacks using finger are turning out to be pretty effective. This is a gap. Who knew windows even came with finger in 2026. NT days, yes, but now?

I live in one of the reddest counties in SC, and I can tell you that the vast majority of vehicles are behemoth trucks. It’s 20 miles to Columbia - per trip, so a commute is 40. Even an “efficient” new SUV of that class may be 20 mpg. A non “efficient” Land Cruiser is already $80 to fill per week.

Solvitur ambulando is my favourite Latin phrase. It means "it is solved by walking". (Info in alt text.)
A photograph I took quite early on New Year's Day, 2019, while walking on the Isle of Purbeck during the research for my book Ring The Hill, not long before I did a tweet using the photo and this same caption. I imagine it won't have as much impact here, since loads of people have since reused it, and the phrase is now more widely known. It is still very very true, though. Lots of things are solved by walking. Although not everything, obviously.

I really don't want to get too much into this, the drone thing, maybe in some bizarro world. But the snipers? It's a half mile to the BACK of the Lincoln memorial. It's a mile to the main part of the mall, nothing clear, elevation change, etc. The other direction is the cemetery??

The vibe of this picture is what’s in my head for “teenager in the 80s wants to go into international relations.” My path diverged (mostly) but those images are still there.

People do this for escalation in products all the time, like privileged identity management, or audit searches. A way to stop it is to actually ingest and alert on the log? “Hey, so and so wrote LMAO for escalation?” You can even automate it via email. “Did you say weird kid for your reason?”

We only have one TV and it’s in our loft, and our house is fairly open floor plan. This was fine when we wanted to more closely monitor things. Now it’s an abomination with a 14 yo yelling “GET OUT OF THAT ZONE!” and “DON’T GASLIGHT ME!” while playing Helldivers with their friends.

I can’t do @cyberwarcon.bsky.social in person for the first time ever, for the nerd reason that I have to see Anika Nilles play with Rush in Charlotte that evening. I’ve seen Rush like 30 times and didn’t think our kids would be able to see them. Then we’re seeing Terry Bozzio play with Beat.

My family has several of these grants from western NC when plots had to be transferred from England to state to personal. A quirk (not in this one) I thought was odd was references to Buffalo Creek, there were actual American Bison in NC in the 1700s! The last one was shot near Asheville in 1799.

Every time that dialect map goes around I think they should just have a series of questions like the old computer aided testing variable number ones. “Do you know what livermush, cheerwine, and sun drop is?” “Done, piedmont to western NC, probably Rutherfordton, Polk, Cleveland, or Buncombe.”

I know that nuance doesn’t work on the internet, but let me just set a scene. I worked in Econ Dev in SC for a long time and I can tell you that in 2007-8 the citizens of Berkeley County did everything possible to get Google to build there. Same in NC with both Apple and Facebook. There is nuance.

As the Catholics have also said, the Revelation of John’s language is woven through things, but in the Orthodox Church, for example, it’s the only NT book that is never read aloud during a service. Ever.
