My take from the Smith hearings: To be a GOP senator today, you have to be a lying piece-of-shit, who puts loyalty to party & our lying piece-of-shit president, above their oaths to the Constitution & their obligations to tell the truth & do what rights to the American people! Repost if U agree

I'm reading Scarlett Thomas' The Runner (2026) and there's a mention of hypnogogic jerks. So, I explore. Google emphatically says "No, you cannot die from a hypnic jerk" That's not true. It depends what you're doing at the time. If you're falling asleep ascending a mountain a hypnic jerk is bad.

My first task with a new device is to turn OFF all notification sounds. Not for the Guardian reviewer of the new Apple Mac mini M6. "It has basic speakers built in, which are good enough for macOS’s notification sounds." Turn off all notification sounds - unless you need them for accessibility.

Half Marathons are *just* 4 parkruns and a victory lap, says the arithmetic. Real life intrudes and 2 parkruns takes more than twice the energy of one parkrun.

The guy with his back to us is now Bert, but Bert is being operated by Frank Oz, who is crouched down in front of the counter. The waiter/server is now Jim Henson who is looking intently at Kermit, and Kermit, who is occupying half of Jim's right arm, is looking intently at Jim. The diner is now called "JIMMYS".

"Let us hush this cry of 'Forward' till ten thousand years have gone" Alfred Tennyson wrote Locksley Hall Sixty Years Later in 1886, and it seems apposite today, 140 years later. It also plays a part in Marathon Man (1976), but that's a diversion. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
