The lawn is also going crazy. I'll have to cut it 2x per week from now on. Or use SALO (semi-autonomous lawnmower operator) who is 10yrs old.
So hot and humid my glasses are fogging. It's only May!

Ayrton Senna was 30years ago today. I like this photo of him, waiting by his broken Lotus - that car in which he built his reputation - during a practice session. #f1

@Binder It used to be spelled Kæther but that spelling fell out of fashion after Einstein published “On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies”, his Special Theory of Relativity, making the long term reliance on the outdated concept unnecessary.
Something similar happened with the name Phil, which was originally short for Philogiston.

Today in 1992, 32 years ago: in Afghanistan the civil war ends, with the transfer of powers from the communist government to Sibgatulah Mujadedi.

Laws are never equally enforced or applied especially when you have tons of investors money. It is a sad reality. https://bsky.app/profile/lonestartallboi.bsky.social/post/3kiib4qnjt324
If the story was about police prosecuting speeders when they're not actually speeding, that would be a good corruption angle. As it is, the entire scheme only exists because drivers cannot fucking drive at the speed limit.
This is ostensibly a story about small-town corruption. It is actually a story about American drivers and their widespread inability to adhere to a speed limit.

Email from AT&T.
We're very sorry your information was compromised along with *7.4 million* other people. We want you to know we take security and privacy _very seriously_. So here's a free year of credit monitoring and identity theft protection...
... from fucking Experian.
That's the first company I think of when I think of a company that takes security and privacy incredibly seriously. Yeah.
I'm sorry to say I find the new Taylor completely dull

please consume some water, biofriend!
It is the fantasy of the Guardianista to fuck off to another country with lower cost of living, and make a bit song and dance about it. It is not, however, the great conscientious move you think it is, because it is only possible due to privilege. Actual priivilege, not the Graun kind.
I have seen this reposted in many places, in a great example of not reading the article. It is much more complex than the Guardian slant wants it to appear. Average rent in BA is about half of what this guy was paying in London. Also - and this is key - he is there for work.
