I’m Jimi.

I quietly contemplate these days. I enjoy reading about and infrequently discussing #SciFi, #Fantasy, #Horror, #Science, #USPolitics and #Noir. I’ve been #TentCamping over half my life.

#StarTrek🖖rocks.
I love all #Tolkien.
#MST3K is hilarious.
Michael Myers🔪the 1st shape.
#Ghibli storytelling is *gorgeous*
#Svengoolie rules!

We call them gym shoes round here.

Human	Not Immortal. Really.
Location	In far Northern Illinois. Previously Braga, Pt., Funchal, Pt., Barrie, Ontario. Far Northern Illinois before all that.
Banner Image	Fall is the season on the lakefront in Barrie, Ontario. A photographer in a yellow jacket sits under a reddish dynamic sculpture. New construction is visible in the background. Blue sky with scattered white clouds. The lake is reflecting the blue sky.
Toots	Toots disappear like tears in the rain. However it takes a while. So I got that going for me at least.

You just don't see this style of fibreglass seventies mods happening in Bugs any more. Check the Torana taillights.

Took Harry to a little cars & coffee last Sunday. There was a huge show going on in another suburb but wasn't in the mood for the traffic and crush so went to this instead. Nice wintery morning.

everyone talks about ai “assistants” like it’s some whipsmart loyal sidekick, but they’re actually this guy: a scheming, sycophant vizier who whispers delusions in your ear and is actually working for another master

That’s some damn good looking fritters and trout cakes you got to eat Mats. Did you pair them with anything?

First time I came here, I thought the nav must be taking me somewhere wrong. Or to my horror picture murder.

The last leg of the journey from town is like four miles of this until you finally get somewhere you definitely don’t expect to find a high-end restaurant.

If you’ll be in or near Zion National Park, Black Sage is an unexpected delight you should absolutely try.

If we could live forever, imagine drifting through the endless vast sea of the cosmos for billion of years. Not staying in one place but always moving. Of all the things we would have seen.

I'm excited to learn more about this visitor.

"Fundamentally, what we're trying to do when we have evidence here in medicine or science is prevent ourselves from confusing randomness for a signal. ... we don't want to mistake something, we think it's going on and it's not. And the challenge, particularly with any intervention is you only get to see one version of reality. You can't give someone a drug, follow them, rewind history, not give them the drug and then follow them again."
