I like cats, dogs, pets, cooking, history, finding anomalies in AIs, and working on puzzles. I used to code. Not really into mainstream politics, and usually, I speak and type in complete sentences, but I have a tendency toward run ons. 😉

Today, I wrote about how drones may be a new technology, but they represent extremely old ideas about detaching our minds from our bodies to explore the earth below - as expressed by shamans, Socrates, and old Japanese stories about creepy floating heads.

The Three Dreams You Need to Make a Drone: A Drone of The Mind
We have a body. We have a soul. It is possible to separate the two. Usually, this happens when we die. But not always. Sometimes, the soul, and the ability to perceive that accompanies it, separates ...

‘You Will Hear From Heaven’: Huckabee Tells Trump Only God’s Voice Matters in Israel-Iran Conflict

Congress does not function, it's the root cause of much that is wrong with our politics, and that is partly because of poor design but also because members have been shirking responsibility for decades now

ALA is deeply concerned by reports that IMLS is sending notices to libraries claiming to cancel grants that are required by law. This harmful action will disrupt libraries' ability to serve their communities. Tell Congress to protect library funding: bit.ly/CallCongressForLibraries #ForOurLibraries

People will say this is the result of a presidential election, and that’s partly true. But the Constitution does not delegate tariff power to the president, and he is only able to impose these ruinous, peace-destroying taxes because Congress has let him do so. Congress can end this at any time.

I get Trump’s program for the economy, BUT when the semiconductor factories were still in Sunnyvale in 1986, drinking water was polluted with Trichloroethylene (TCE), and crime was way up. When the plants left, so did the TCE and it went quickly to “Best Cities To Raise A Family” level.

I rarely bother with politics, but this RFK Jr thing worried me, but apparently, he is already reined in, but I don’t like all he’s likely agreed to, at least according to this investigative journalist, who my smartest friend tells me is the best: rokfin.com/post/200539/...

The belly rubs are good this morning
A closeup of a brown tabby cat lying against a computer monitor. His head is upside down, his fat polydactyl paws are bent towards his chest and his fangs are dangling. He’s blissfully receiving belly rubs.

I’m convinced the “do audiobooks count as reading?” argument all derives from those mid-90s summer reading pizza challenges. Folks - we’re all in our 30s and 40s now. It’s no longer a competition. Go buy your favorite pie with your adult money and let people enjoy books however they want.

As someone who grew up online, it does depress me to see how many people genuinely can’t fathom why someone would want to be on social media beyond reasons linked to building clout so you can make money. It’s fun to talk to interesting people from around the world. That’s always been my reason.

Mary W Shelley
 He sprang from the cabin window as he said this upon th ice raft which lay close to the vessel. He was soon borne away by the waves and lost in darkness and distance.

Written in pen is
As he drifted away I could just make out his final words
"its ok if you call me 'Frankenstein' instead of 'Frankenstein's Monster'
I really don't mind"

The end

The number one advice any & every writing professional can & will give you is this: DO NOT BE AFRAID TO SUCK. You have spent years reading books, watching movies & TV, developing taste to know good from bad. NO ONE GETS TO READ YOUR WRITING UNTIL YOU LET THEM. Trust your taste & write fearlessly.
