I just early voted—figured I’d get out ahead of the martial law! Also: I turn 60 this year, and Virginia has had patrician senators named Warner in office nonstop since I was in grade school. Can we mix it up a bit someday—maybe before I’m dead and gone?

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport

Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

Weekend vibes

A photo of me piloting a small vintage airplane (specifically: a De Havilland Canada Chipmunk) somewhere over Ontario, taken from the rear seat. I’m wearing aviators and looking over my right shoulder. The sky is blue with some wispy clouds and the ground below is rivers and farmland.

This culture of predation disgused as sexual open-mindedness is painfully familiar: Richard Stallman's "pleasure cards," Eric Raymond's open marriage that included propositioning colleagues, etc. As with everything else, the SV/VC/AI crowd has reinvented sexual harassment from first principles.

I love Canada! 🇨🇦 I flew up today to a small airport I’ve never been to before to see friends, and the flight school offered me a free place to stay for the night (I’d already booked a hotel room), gave me the keys to their truck for the night, and handed me a beer in the on-field bar they keep.

So, Banksy bought a used yacht, repaired it and retrofitted it to serve as a rescue boat to save migrants in the central Mediterranean. The whole project cost the artist $860,000. Since 2020, the boat has saved more than 3,800 people. londondaily.com/banksy-funds...

We simply are not going to get out of this by just winning the next election & going back to governing. We can't keep doing this total failure of elite accountability. We've been doing it since Iran-Contra, & really since 1865. And we keep not fixing our broken anti-democratic institutions. Enough.
