On Russian Army Collapse: Remember the Zelensky White House meeting: "You have no cards"? And now Iran...same arrogance led him to underestimate their mettle. What a mess... and the world pays

Thank you @friendlymoose and @topcomment 🌸

It's really a profound insight, that taking one's life is not a solitary act. I can extend that insight further. Sometimes stuff is hard to take. It almost seems like we have a right to feel down. When

I figure this city could be quite profitable for a glass company. 😅 Quite a commentary on the community...

In a way your beautiful poem carries the keys to happiness. When do we have enough? Why do our appetites grow? I think one of reasons this happens is because we are social animals. We start with the basics

Hi @borjan, @sketch.and.jam just did a Trippy Thursday post. I guess some people are still doing it :)

That picture sends a chill through me. We've had a tree fall on the house (not this house...former house), and we had a 13-day blackout with Super Storm Sandy. This year we bought two power stations, a

Only a traditional politician would demand to be paid by someone else's money through taxes. We are taing the poor and distributing to the rich, and the rich are arguing back when we complain about the

I don't want to be rude, but I don't think I've ever seen a festival that made me want to eat less than this one. Taking pictures was the best thing you could do there. Although I'm not a Big Mac fan,

Wow! Beautiful!

I've referred to this job before. Well paying, but dreadful. I've always been mortified that I took the job. It was enforcement work--a 'man's job--not good. It paid more than twice my previous salary.

The excerpts from your novel, not so much I was in a mood when I wrote that. I sat down and typed out 80,000 words. I was trying to explore issues of life and death in a way that would be palatable to

I'm pretty sure we would have been simpatico, if I applied for a job with you. I'm not sure you would have hired me, because my personality might not have fit your needs. Work for me has always been something

Thank you! Glad you like what I did with your alley😄 My Claude predates the AI Claude. This was written at least 10 years ago, when AI loomed only distantly on the horizon, and AI Claude was not even
