Mind you, having said that, if there were genetic researchers about they'd probably be on here somewhere. Dw, I'm not looking. Happy enough to figure out how to open one of those stupid vaccuum sealed glass jars at this stage in my lfie.
Sometimes a pickle is desirable.

Can't wait for the chromosome debate either. We live in a world where everything is what people prefer to believe, so it doesn't really matter, apart from the entertainment value by now. However the Y chromosome is a tad smaller than the X one, and appears to be shrinking further for reasons unknown, last I read, which could also be total baloney for all I know. I don't have a genetic researcher to interrogate.

I had no idea Britain's private spies worked for Russia. Things you learn. What is a private spy?

"what appears to be" fits the news medial beautifully. "What appears to be journalism" - they gave their own game away.

People are alive still whose parents fought nazis, died in the fight, or grandparents - it hasn't quite died from our memories. Hitler is dead in a bunker long ago and cos playing nazi isn't going to bring him back, but it can upstage a president.
And just did.

I'm still giggling at being upstaged (totally) by a hitler salute. How much goes into getting an inauguration perfect down to the last dot. Anyway the salute has garnered more press than anyone's dress or what the president is about.
Only one star in that show.
Even the UK press noticed it and they'r as dim as bricks.

I am totally fascinated to see whether the Trump administration really does "put more money in people's pockets" as his supporters claim he did last time. Person after person reports being poorer under Biden and richer under Trump although perhaps services and systems improved under Biden.
If he does, that's probably the magic.

The minute anything becomes a "movement" or even worse accrues funding, an authoritarian will be along to stamp it out.
But people are intrinsically co-operative small scale, so that still works, the trick is not to centralise, I suspect.
The counter to a pointy weapon is a net.

I'm enjoying playing Planet Crafter as a counterbalance to all the crazy irl stuff. You terraform a hand made (not procedural) slice of a barren planet. I find it very satisfying. Graphics look like Unreal (?), might be a bit grindy for some but you can speedrun after a few goes. I like the gentle grind and achievement buzz though, that's just me.
Also and unusually it doesn't rely on killing something every few steps - or ever, actually (at least not as far as I've played).

Musk stole the limelight - that won't be very popular, I imagine.

I don't actually understand what's lost in translation. if you can read bollox for free, and good information is walled off, most people read rubbish, believe it and act on it. It's all the information they have and it's the best they can do with it.
Sitting on an information or news castle isn't what it used to be.

Mind you, Musk picked his attack line well. The UK establishment is very sensitive about some issues. Files get "lost", stories buried, nobody knew anything, witnesses and victims are 'unreliable', important people end up in unmarked graves, it's all indecipherable, and I'm glad I don't know anything. Really glad.

Millions of people struggling to make ends meet but it just takes one gazillionobillionaire to say "paedophile" for the government to spring into action, or rather not act but do another review/enquiry and hope it's enough - that's a kind of non-democracy right there.

It has been a tiring day. And all I feel like eating is a bowl of buttered rice. Neither body nor brain is going to cope with anything more complex. Even rice with bits of veg in would be too challenging right now.

What was in the news before someone decided a big massive change of subject was necessary? I confess I can't remember.
Remembering what was being discussed before that discussion was obliterated by something even worse is probably a skill (which I don't have at this point)
I suspect the outrageous policies and statements are giving double value - both sowing chaos and fear, and neatly deflecting attention from anything that someone wants attention to go away from, at the same time.

I wonder which churl will win the news on New Years day. HIghly competitive by now. You can tell me later. I'm hiding behind my sofa and won't go near media, or for that matter other people until Jan 3. Flat refusal.

Tutorial on using metallic brushes (a free brush pack also available). Disclosure this one is by someone close to me)
I intend to spend next year being creative and supporting other creatives. Personally I wouldn't put anything online if you paid me.
