Pretty much all new construction I see uses a palette of black, grey, white and some shade of brown.

Not just state media, state media loaded with malware. It’s a two-fer!

Well, I suppose that there were people who looked down their noses at that newfangled Mozart stuff. Christoph Willibald Gluck was what I grew up on, can’t stand that new so-called “music” by Mozart. My

one of the keys to a good kitchen is having a window over the sink, so that is why it is on the exterior wall. Ours isn’t. Bad feng shui? 😅 When we were house hunting, in one of the places we looked at

Maybe have the stove and kitchen sink swap places so the sink can share a wall with the bathroom plumbing? But then I suppose the dishwasher at the same wall? As it happens, I watched a video yesterday

Whoa. Diesel hit $6.00 in the Twin Cities yesterday. And now $6.30 today.

It wasn’t supposed to be an instruction manual.

Had a somewhat similar experience 30-some years ago when I was involved in the world of international mail art. A guy from Berlin and his friend planned to travel throughout the U.S. visiting with dozens

I read something that might be called interesting (or perhaps insane) today, where Trump is "promising" (his promises and deals are worthless) to give $5000 dollar handouts to "every American

Зеленський виглядав надзвичайно розлюченим, сидячи поруч із Кушнером та Віткоффом. Він розуміє зраду Трампа.

The barriers people cite are exactly what you'd expect: no time, can't focus, social media. The last two in particular are probably closely related. Much of social media requires only the attention span

I have a graphic designer friend who says the job’s not finished unless there’s a typo. And note that carpet weavers in central Asia intentionally add at least one mistake to their weaving, believing that

El-Sayed is an Islamist, communist anti-semite None of this is true.

Gmail is so weird. Yesterday it said I had 1,902 unread emails. Yeah, I tend to ignore obvious spam. Today it says I have 4,305 unread emails. I have received no new emails in the last 24 hours.

The future schadenfreude of saying “You had your chance, we tried to let you in cheap” when HIVE passes $10.

If money is going to be irrelevant just a few years from now, why are Elmo and other billionaires still so focused on acquiring more of it?

There seems to be a mistake. My credit cards are paid off, it’s a week and a half until I get paid, and I’m not flat broke. This is not normal.
