Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 29/08/2026I'm currently in Bend, OR. Got a couple of medico stuffs to deal with and I've got insurance!, so I do it here. Hope to be on my way elsewhere in a week or two. 000
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 28/08/2026A fun game testing your geographical knowledge. maptap.gg 100
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 28/08/2026But what's your MapTap score for today? 😎 100
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 24/08/2026I'm ready for (a) warmer, and (b) thicker air. Plane leaves at 0330 for both. 100
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 24/08/2026If the sun's up before I am, something's wrong... 030
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Surprise! None I bought my kids a few, but I haven't a clue which, and never saw 'em. 020
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 08/08/2026As a result of all my travels, I will emphatically reply "No." There's nothing exotic or interesting about an American accent, since it's everywhere in media. 130
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 07/08/2026I just learned this week what Fido means coming from Latin. Probably why it was such a common dog name. 010
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 05/08/2026I wonder if even he believes his own bullshit, or is just playing the role? Either way, he's nothing more than a grifter. 020
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 04/08/2026I realized I'd left you off my shot-from-the-hip list soon afterward. AND WE'VE MET! I have no excuse. Mea culpa. 020
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Apropos of nothing, I'm reading a historical fictional account of the French Revolution at the moment. 010
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 02/08/2026I’m here for the Scalzi on Scalzi Oxford comma Battle Royale. What’s next, em dashes? Bring it on! 000
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 02/08/2026The Man-cub is 2114 miles away in San Francisco. The She-cub is in NYC. How var? 2123 miles. The distance between SF & NYC? 2572. Almost a perfect isosceles triangle. 120
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 02/08/2026And Fairy and Marvin, too. That was cool they got together! 020
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 02/08/2026And the grifter godless mom or whatever. You, though. And a few others - Broncos Sherri, the Ho, Logical Narwhal, Nate? Yeah, I made some good connections. 450
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Ah yes, the days of militant Twitter atheism. 120
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 15/07/2026I sat in a stadium "watching" a cricket match for over an hour. I had no idea what was happening. I watched Australian Rules Football in a bar in Katherine, NT, and only knew what was happening because Ronald, a local, took me under his wing and explained. We had a great time. And a lot of beer. 010
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 16/06/2026The market closes a day early this week, on Thursday. It's also option expiration day. It'd be real interesting if an announcement comes out that morning that there is no deal. Market drops, puts clean up. 020
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 15/06/2026Anyone betting on the "deal" failing and this being solely a market manipulation? 010

Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 27/05/2026Avis is the worst car rental company. Nothing but hassles. Fuck em. Long, hard and deep. 020
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 18/05/2026Have some things that need doing. And see my kids! 230
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 18/05/2026Bemused is not a synonym of amused. It is, however, a synonym of the word puzzled. The more you know, the better your writing. 010
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 18/05/2026It was an interesting encounter when I finished up my process upon arrival in Chicago. One agent was a complete and total asshole cementing the stereotype of a power-mad fuckwit. My interviewer, though, was decent. And there were no lines anywhere for anyone. Wonder if people are staying away? 120
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 18/05/2026I'm back, bitches. Back in the US, back in the US, back in the US of A. And it's...meh. Sticker shock for sure. 230
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 18/05/2026My "discover" seems to only be people I already follow. It's lame. Bubbling Up is interesting sometimes. 110
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 16/05/2026Global Entry gives me a speed run through immigration when arriving in the USA. Often less than 5 minutes. Includes speed through security checks when boarding, too. 120
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Travel day: I start a 31-hour marathon journey from SE Asia to the Midwest USA. Long layover in Tokyo. Woo. Have a Global Entry interview planned, so a bit longer stay in the first stop in the US. 130
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Why does dropping a watermelon sound like jazz music? It's a meloneous thunk. 000
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 13/05/2026That's the basis of the whole christian religion: all decendents are liable for the crimes of their ancestor. 120
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 12/05/2026I can see a "Weekend at Bernie's" situation in the republican party wheeling out a dead orange shitstain and claiming it's still living and presidential. Even to the extent the Supreme Joke justices toss out the 22nd Amendment, and his corpse is "president" for another 4 years. 010
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 12/05/2026I'll qualify it now to "...if you think there won't be any more *fair* elections..." 120
Walkabout Slang @walkaboutslang.bsky.social · 11/05/2026Suspending the gas tax won't change pump prices much, it'll only put more money in the hands of the gas companies and their stockholders. Which is, I guess, the point. 010
