I’ve read everything he’s ever written. A real genius, who was able to look beyond many of our modern, pointless issues and understand the real long term threat of modernization.

RIP to a real one.

I may hate Joe, but I love that he’s making the Limeys mad.

Happiness comes from goals, love, and expression. I strive to do as much of all three as possible.

Live a happy life with people that I love.

Can an animal create sugar from sunlight and carbon dioxide?

Because there are more people in the center & north of the state. And those areas are bleeding heart conservative.

Charlotte County water has had problems for a while. Most of the coastal areas are fine, but the more inland you go, the more polluted the water supply gets. The Northern areas of North Port are especially bad.

As a Floridian, it’s hard to put into words how much of a disaster Ron Desantis is. Most people here in the south of the state bar some snowbird cities hate the guy, and he’s gotten away with far too many blatantly unconstitutional laws.

Agreed. Siberian winds have been hitting us really hard lately. 30-50 years ago in SouthWest FL, it would stay at a steady 50-65 degrees during the winter. Now, we’re getting 65-80 during half of the Winter, and 35-50 the rest of the time. It really gets on my nerves when people in temperate climates talk about climate change as if it’s this faraway thing that won’t affect us for a long time, when those of us near the equator are already feeling the effects.

Especially crazy down here in Florida. The temperature jumped from mid 70’s to low 40’s just last week. Where I live, there’s plenty of people without heat in their homes that are trying everything to stay warm. It’s a sad predicament.

“Man, I was really feeling shitty about this useless war. But now that I heard a Russian propaganda song from the Drum & Bugle Corp, I’m feeling a lot better. Thanks Putin.”

1 year later.

“Huh, South America’s been getting real authoritarian lately. Wonder why that is?”

Writing, listening to music, learning Stenogrophy, and practicing Euphonium.

I’ve been using a P2P sharing application called Nicotine+, and it’s been working wonders for me so far in terms of music.

They’re slow, and I don’t need them.

There never was a utopia. There never will me. Humans are so flawed, greedy, and hateful that we will never have anything close to a utopia.

I’m gonna be honest, I may know how to manage Linux, servers, and the like, but I don’t know shit about coding actual applications. But that doesn’t mean I still don’t benefit from Linux’s open source nature. When an application doesn’t work, or I feel the need to change something, there’s always someone smarter than me who has a patch or a change that I can use.

Nice. I use Teeline, but I’ve always wanted to learn a phonetic shorthand system.

I play baritone too! I’m actually in the process of auditioning for all state with Euphonium right now.
