I honestly can't say, or at least can't point to any one thing. I think it was just a growing realization that I'm a misfit even among misfits.

I'm seeing lots of fear-mongering over the mid-Atlantic earthquake, but not a lot of science yet. Wondering what @drlucyjones.bsky.social (my fav person to see on TV after a SoCal quake 😁) has to say on the subject.

When you show up at a protest in matching pre-printed t-shirts, it is NOT a spontaneous thing. Someone had those shirts made well ahead of time.

Been thinking about this one a lot lately. Because NONE of the crap that's happening can be laid only at the feet of one person. If the people who are supposed to check and balance don't check or balance, then it's on them, too. #Vote

The Kennedy Center needs a human shield -- people surrounding and ready to record 24/7, ready to link arms and stand in front of the bulldozers. They can work in shifts.

Still cataloging my late father's library before selling -- a job I've had on and off since I made file cards while in my teens, many winters ago. The books date back to the 1940s. It makes me smile how many of the most-represented authors are women. Purple names are just followed links. #BookSky

"Name a movie that flopped at the box office but is actually great." I wanna say Cutthroat Island, but I have to admit it really isn't a "great" movie. A fun movie? Hell yeah. Fantastic soundtrack? Even people who don't like the movie will agree on that. But Citizen Kane it's not. #FilmSky

8-panel comic, "Tales of Mere Existence," by Levni Yilmaz, www.ingredientx.com
Title: "Thinly Veiled Metaphor About Voting." All panels take place on/near a small boat with 4 cartoon figures.
Panel 1. Caption "One day in the middle of the ocean..."; Person 1 "Oh crud. Our boat is sinking. We are in great peril indeed."
Panel 2. Person 1 "We're going to be OK everyone, just get into this liferaft." Person 2 "Is this the only liferaft we've got?"
Panel 3. Person 1 "Yes, but it's big enough for all of us." Person 2 "It looks uncomfortable." Person 3 "I don't like the color."
Panel 4. Person 1 "Guys, that's not important right now. Our boat is sinking." Person 2 "Eh, I don't feel like getting in a raft today." Person 3 "Don't you have a raft that we'd like better?"
Panel 5. Person 1 "Look, this is serious - if we don't get in the raft, we all drown." Person 2 "But what if we don't like either of those options?" Person 3 "I'm not feeling this rescue..."
Panel 6. The boat is sinking, with the stern already underwater. Person 2 "To protest our unsatisfactory choices, let's untie the raft and let it go." Person 1 "Wait, no don't..." Person 3 "Yeah! do it!"
Panel 7. The aft deck is underwater and the people have moved to towards the bow. The raft has floated out of reach. Person 1 "You do realize that was our only raft?" Person 2 "Yes, but we feel that a raft should offer more than just survival."
Panel 8. Caption "Twenty minutes later..." The boat is gone and the people are treading water. Person 1 "Sorry guys, I think we're screwed." Person 2, angrily "You should have given us a more inspiring raft. This is all your fault."

AI has valid uses, but so many problems. GenAI undermines creatives, people who lean on it for communication forget (or will never really learn) how to communicate, and then there's this huge problem. (link to follow) #AI #datacenters

Excerpt from United Nations University press release:
Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada (3 June 2026) – By 2030, the global data centres powering artificial intelligence are projected to consume 945 terawatt-hours of electricity. This is nearly triple the combined annual electricity use of Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nigeria—countries collectively home to more than 650 million people. Their associated water footprint will equal the basic annual domestic water needs of all 1.3 billion people in Sub-Saharan Africa, and their land footprint will exceed 14,500 square kilometers, roughly twice the Jakarta metropolitan area, home to more than 32 million people.

Trump says rise in oil prices 'very small price to pay'
published at 16:30 (PDT)

(image of Donald Trump waving his right hand, Image source, EPA)

US President Donald Trump says a sharp increase in oil prices (see earlier post) due to the conflict in the Middle East will correct itself and is a small price to pay for global security.

"Short term oil prices, which will drop rapidly when the destruction of the Iran nuclear threat is over, is a very small price to pay for USA and World, Safety and Peace," he writes in a post on Truth Social.

"ONLY FOOLS WOULD THINK DIFFERENTLY!"

The increase in price of crude oil is the highest since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
