I left Northern Ireland to come here to play soccer in 1981. It was at the height of the troubles. When I left my mates called me a lucky bastard for getting to go live in America.
Last month I was home in Ireland for a wedding. The same people told me how sorry they were for me having to live here.

Japan Daily on Instagram: "Residents in Tokyo's Ikebukuro district are reporting a surge in abandoned suitcases left in residential neighborhoods by foreign tourists. Security footage has captured individuals discarding old luggage late at night, likely after purchasing new replacements to transport souvenirs home. According to local regulations in Toshima Ward, items larger than 30 centimeters are classified as oversized waste and require a specific fee and advance reservation for pickup. Many of the abandoned items lack the necessary disposal stickers, creating a significant burden for local communities and sanitation services. Experts suggest that the rise of private lodging facilities contributes to the issue, as off-site owners may not provide guests with adequate instructions regarding waste disposal. To combat this trend, Haneda Airport has begun broadcasting multilingual warnings, and officials are currently considering new collection systems and potential penalties to manage unwanted luggage."

@… @… great podcast episode! I believe this is the first time I've heard Brett’s voice… which sounds strange for how long I followed your work.
The episode made me realize that I don't really know how I could create key chords to group together subset of shortcuts. Or even if it's possible at all; which might actually be the case.
For example, let's assume we'd want to have all Moom shortcuts under Hyper W. Then Move left would become `Hyper W Left Arrow`.
What do you think?

One fascinating film trivia I learned recently is that Sofia Coppola and Spike Jonze’s marriage from 1999 to 2003 partially inspired Coppola’s 2003 film Lost In Translation and Jonze’s 2013 film Her.
Coincidentally, both films star Scarlett Johansson as the main female protagonist, both films were nominated for the Oscar Best Picture, and both films won the Oscar Best Original Screenplay for Coppola and Jonze.

This morning I have mostly been truing the sawmill bed. The ground had obviously shifted a bit over winter, and it was no longer cutting perfectly true.
It's now cutting much better, although I am going to need to get my blades sharpened.
#TheJoyOfCrofting

The spirit level one of the bearers of the sawmill bed. The bearer is a rectangular section steel box beam, painted green. The ground beneath the sawmill bed is extremely littered with sawdust and scraps of wood.
Checking the alignment of the bearers, using a plank that has been cut to a straight edge. There are six bearers visible in the picture, of seven total. They span across between the rails on which the carriage that holds the saw runs. The carriage is visible at the left of the picture.
First timbers cut after truing, lying on the bed of the mill. The cuts are slightly wavy because the blade is not sharp, but it is cutting to consistent thickness.

Just finished "Future Home of the Living God" by Louise Erdrich. It's a beautiful and entrancing novel in many ways, but I couldn't bring myself to like the ending. I think in one of my most recent book posts I complained about a deus ex machina, so it's ironic that in this case as the pages dwindled I was fully prepared to accept and even welcome one, especially with all of the deus-related stuff going on already. I am left profoundly unsure as to whether Erdrich imagines a positive future beyond our current oppressions, or just futility, when for most of the book it seemed like the former, which is something I seek out in earnest these days. It is of course impressive that a book about innocents being hunted through the streets of Minneapolis & Saint Paul, while a volunteer citizens network organizes to keep them safe, could be published in 2017. There are strong echoes of Octavia Butler here, and in both cases I think it's a marginalized position which allows authors to see with clarity that most mainstream authors miss or don't even attempt.
I think I will seek out more of Erdrich's writing, but only after a bit of a break.

In the lower right, a large, dark cloud partially obscures the sun, causing bright crepuscular rays (sunbeams) to radiate upward and outward into the clear blue expanse. Small, wispy cloud fragments are scattered across the center, and a faint, thin vapor trail from a plane is visible in the middle left. The overall lighting is bright and ethereal, suggesting late afternoon.

Brian Schottenheimer says Cowboys have competition at left tackle insidethestar.com/brian-schott

The Voting Rights Act ended Jim Crow. But now the Supreme Court — Chief Justice John Roberts’ Court — has effectively ended much of what’s left of the Voting Rights Act — setting the stage for voters of color to be silenced.
Now it’s up to us to defend the freedom to participate in our democracy. The actions we take now will help determine whose voice gets heard and which communities get locked out of political power.

“History is a bill we keep dodging. The North won the Civil War, the South won the memory. Reconstruction was left for dead, white terror became law, and Jim Crow swaggered in through the breach. That was a political decision to walk away before the work was finished, to protect comfort over Black lives. America pays interest on cowardice, generation after generation, and the bill never shrinks.”

Steps Into The Unknown (2025)
(Actually a lie, since this was taken on the way back, just before sunset, but it was "into the unknown" a six hours earlier... These steps of the only partially secured path are leading up to around 100 meters above/along the increasingly more steep and narrow canyon. The rocks/slopes on the left go up almost another 2000m [out of view, of course]...)
#FootpathFriday

POV view of a narrow path with natural rock steps along the side walls of a canyon (near its entrance). The section is partially secured with a steel rope along the rock face on the left. Clear blue sky with the opposite side of the valley catching the last sun light of the day.

The sharply conservative Supreme Court that Donald Trump’s three appointees remade
is the first since at least the 1950s to

“The circus has left the town square, that’s for sure,” said Brian Reisinger, a former Republican strategist in Wisconsin.
On Tuesday, voters in Wisconsin will choose another justice to join the State Supreme Court.
Except this election has arrived with little of the fanfare that Wisconsin voters have come to expect from these court races:
the national frenzy, a cameo from a tech billionaire, incessant television ads, partisan debates and a deluge of campaign cash.
