Sailor. I believe in science and the constitution.

I am, therefore I think.
Diagonally parked in a parallel universe.

Sadly necessary: no DMs, no crypto, etc.
The construction is finished on this set piece. Time to hand it over to the dressers.

I am thankful our construction plan came together better than we had anticipated. Sometimes the universe smiles at you.

Getting to play a bit with Ai. Learning about changing images.

Thanksgiving leftovers. Tonight, and not yesterday. All gone. We now return you to our regularly scheduled meals.

We aren't yet exactly like Germany in the 1930s, but we are working on it.

Rings true. The republicans in congress are spineless cowards.
They are afraid of donOld and of the maga nut jobs.
Nazi Trump and his family, Trump's Nazi regime and the Nazi GOP, they are all working for Russia on behalf of Putin to destroy the US and democracy. The heads of high traitors must be cut off, because they do not understand any other language than Russians. ☠️

From Senator Kennedy [R-LA]:

“Attacking Mark Kelly is attacking the Constitution itself. A president calling for the death penalty for his political opponents — that’s not democracy. That’s the first brick laid on the road to fascism.” 1/2

Of course they are on board. There's grift to be made.
“In days after Alaska, a European intel agency distributed a hard-copy report in an envelope to some of the continent’s most senior national security officials, who were shocked by the contents: Inside were details of the commercial and economic plans the Trump admin had been pursuing with Russia.”

The Kremlin pitched the White House on peace through business. To Europe’s dismay, the president and his envoy are on board.

This cartoon pretty much nails the actions and motivations of ice.

I am thankful for more set conversations. When all you got is a sketch, have to talk out the design from almost scratch.

Having a good build day. Gotta get this stuff done, and soon.

Math. Have to calculate the miter angles to build those polygons.

From the WaPo: Kegsbreath ordered survivors from a boat strike killed as they were clinging to debris.

Even if the initial strike was legal, and I really doubt that it was, you don't go shooting the survivors. That's like shooting a pilot after they've bailed out following combat. YOU DON'T DO IT.

I am thankful we took a country drive to our Thanksgiving dinner. Got to see some lovely parts of southern PA, and Maryland.

A fun dinner hosted by a dear high school friend. She collects strays for Thanksgiving dinner. Nice bunch of interesting folks. 👇

I am thankful for a safe drive home.

For getting our baking for tomorrow finished.

For another fun night at trivia with our neighborhood friends. Lousy first round cost us, but we have fun!

They are trying too kill us.

I am thankful for a chance to explore a local county park. It’s been years since I lived around here.

That most folks were taking it easy on the rainy roads this evening.

Getting to see some incredible young jazz piano talents perform tonight. Absolutely amazing talent displayed by these guys.

He really is clueless.
The draft dodging idiot posted a pic of this West Point plaque. It contains these words:

“Our American Code of Military Obedience requires that, should orders and the law ever conflict, our officers must obey the law.”

That is precisely what Senator Mark Kelly told officers to do. #NoSedition

In case anyone has forgotten, or did not know.
These all started with physics research, not medical research.
Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.

If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

Wonderful lunch and conversations with my wife's BiL.

Yummy dinner out followed by a quiet evening.
