I am old now but I was once young.

I was not mentored on a whim by an electronic device connected to the Internet. I was mentored by living human beings who knew how to look for the knowledge I needed to know.

All of them have passed from this Earth, this place where love has yet to take hold.

Yet graciously and mysteriously, their admonitions remain to guide me.

@GreenFire Well, drinking water couldn't be trusted as it was often contaminated. And alcohol is distilled, so it's safe to drink. But, given the deregulation crazed wannabe dictator in waiting, I guess that's where exactly where MAGAts would take us. Back to the Wild West.

I want to be a big deal. I want to be more popular than the poop emoji.

The IRS said Friday that it has recovered $1.3 billion in unpaid taxes from high-income Americans who had either failed to file their returns or who hadn't fully paid what they owed.

I know I'm getting older, because people's conversations sound like this:

Have you seen Schenley, it's streaming in Smoob, but if you don't have Smoob, you can PowerWerk it on Placebu.

We used to do intake through Franangle, but we're switching to PLOOP, but it doesn't have chat, so we are having to add Blamama XD!

In Celebrity News, Bargain Bin Ted, is now engaged to Dierks, just in time for the opening of their bar/sleep monstrosity Smooth Brain.

This graphic resonates strongly with me... Especially the serious need for us to move to walk/cycle/transportation. (maybe a pipe dream, but one must attempt to take the right path...)

Everything will become the softly-bouncing powdery pink Rubber Ball of All.

Behold, the pinnacle of spineless mediocrity and the compromising pap of trading imagination for security.

Conservative politicians in Canada blame the price on pollution (carbon tax) for inflation. Meanwhile, Canada has a lower inflation rate than most of the world since the pandemic and Russian war.

They hope to fool the public with misinformation and seize power in 2025, then let their billionaire friends pollute our air and water.

Elections matter.
