Printer getting a flogging.
Good thing the replacement laser cartridge arrived.
Pen, highlighter and hardcopy FTW for a first serious edit.

Well, book finished, I think.

Delighted to hear about this construction innovation due to a feed I've subscribed to, interested that none of the MSM news I view had it up in lights.
Contec Australia has completed the nation’s first multi-storey 3D-printed concrete home in Tapping, Perth.
Using a mobile robotic printer, the team printed the two-storey home’s walls on-site in just 18 hours.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

Around the year 1900,
18% of American children died before the age of 5.
Plus, their premature deaths haunted their families.
Vaccination knocked that death rate below 1%.

What was childhood like before vaccines?
The anti-vax movement has gone mainstream, but before these shots, grief and loss marked the lives of children.

I’ve posted this before but the light was perfect today- a little Victorian cat paw in a brick at the front of the old Norfolk & Norwich Hospital. As this is on the front-facing corner of the main gates, the bricklayer quite clearly put it there on purpose, at a height where children would spot it.

Gallego: "This administration, since they started striking these boats illegally, has been very happy to show their snuff films . Now suddenly they're willing to show the first hit but not the second. Why? ... they're afraid the public is going to see the military killed 2 men that had surrendered."

New species of weasel discovered in the Hengduan Mountains of Sichuan Province, China.
A new weasel species just found in China. Every time I mention “dark extinctions,” people demand proof. But how do you prove the loss of a species we never knew existed?
There are more undiscovered species than known ones.
Extinction often happens before discovery.
