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!
Han shot first.

Cannot express how grateful I am to be living in a time where an app like @notesnook and AnyType exists...
God they're both so good. #Notesnook is brilliant to puke all my deepest and darkest thoughts into my digital diary without worrying about who sees it and who doesn't. It has SO many great security features.
And for AnyType? Its lovely knowing my project brainstorming data is being kept away from AI, and kept local to my machine, encrypted and safe from prying eyes.
Hell yeah!
#art with a lot of #blue in them, check out these two, both're available & affordable 🌊

The agency’s largest interplanetary probe tested its radar during a Mars flyby. The results include a detailed image and bode well for the mission at Jupiter’s moon Europa.

What do Fox News viewers get an earful of every night? Hmmm?
Bob Somerby has the intestinal fortitude to tell us. Because you certainly won’t hear what is said on any Blue network.
Us Blues haven’t got a clue for the most part beyond: nothing good.
“It may be too late to turn back: Last evening, at 10:01 sharp, the little guy with the boatload of anger started his "cable news" program in the standard way—with one of his "smart, fun" jokes.“

This is certainly not the kind of news I like to share, but considering what the regime is saying and doing, I think it’s a good thing to rely on the actual numbers. At least as long as they are available.
“Let me cut right to the chase in this first sentence: the only reason this employment report was not recessionary is that it did not have a negative number. Aside from that, it was either flat to awful almost across the board.“

Nope, nothing to see here. Just us dingy, gray leaves.

I have been binge watching the YouTube channel called "what is politics?" it's also a podcast.
But it is the most refreshing discourse on the meaning and means of reasoning about politics that I have come across.
One point he makes is that the difference between the left and the right about government is not about its size but the purpose it serves.
Only a band as important and huge as Spinal Tap could get guests like this.
