The stupid thing is: After these thoughts, you open your social media app (where I'm typing this RIGHT NOW) and you start feeling bad for feeling overwhelmed. It feels like a "boomer" mindset to wish for peace and quiet in your immediate social circle while accepting humanity (aka: the US (yes this is cynicism)) is dismantling it's rules of social engagement and care in 1933 speed. And then I read it is Trans Day of visibility. Feels sinister.

Good evening Fediversistas! No more Wainwrights today (no summits at least, walked past a few), legs were a bit tired after 40k steps yesterday. Instead, did all the Langdales and some waterfalls with some lumpy bits in between. Another lovely day in the Lakes. #Hiking #Ambling #Rambling

I wrote this yesterday but forgot to post it, it's just a bit of a ramble about being a fake fan of something, what does that even mean anyway?

Definitely a messy one this time.

This is day 36 of #100DaysToOffload

For whatever reason, found myself thinking about the Chronicles of Narnia again. It's probably the first fantasy series I ever read. I loved the cover art, done by Roger Hane for my edition.

I loved the thought of being pulled into another world. A world where animals could talk, goals were plain, evil was black and white, and I could be valuable.

Voyage of the Dawn Treader was my favorite. Exploration, bizarre lands, and unmapped wonders.

Good morning. ☕😃👍

I think I'm going to just ramble this morning: Hmmm ... do I ever not ramble?

I replaced the battery in my lawn mower a couple of days ago. I had to leave the house to go find a new battery, which I found at the dealership. That is pretty much the extent of my social life, when I come face to face with other people because I need something from the store or elsewhere. That may sound sad, but I like the solitude. There was a time when I enjoyed getting out there, but those times are long gone. I stay as busy as I want, there are always things to do but only if I want to do them. I did invite somebody over yesterday ... a plumber.

“I feel like I could do anything. The world is my oyster. If I ate oysters, which I don't. My family's vegetarian. But you know what I mean.” - Maulik Pancholy, The Best at It

Five years ago today, I was replacing a seized brake caliper on my now-crushed Volvo 240 and had a wrench slip, which caused my hand to impale itself on the sharp remains of the very rusty backing plate, and meant a trip to urgent care for a tetanus shot.

My furry little helper really didn't do all that much to help, but she sure kept me entertained. You can tell is was an unusually warm Atlanta xmas eve day by the flip-flops.

Because the goys are all into something else, Dec 24/25 are good days to get projects done, or go ripping up a mountain road like I’m planning to do tomorrow in the 3er which has been sulking in the garage for weeks, then head to R's place to binge S2 of “Silo”. #Rambling #OldCarLife

#Trump & his allies…[have tried to blame Democrats for]…an overheated political climate that…has led to #PoliticalViolence, ignoring that Trump has long used…[far worse]…language to describe Democrats.

Throughout Thurs night’s interview, Trump…gave a series of #rambling answers in which he flung personal #insults at his critics, at one point relived his 2016 presidential campaign & used dark language to make exaggerated claims about #immigration.
