“Bandits and whores are celebrating.” I feel like I’m on the landing crew walking around with a tricorder. Pristine theatrics.
Traficantes estão comemorando, bandidos e putas estão comemorando, pedófilos estão comemorando.

The great John Anderson passed on October 21, aged 71. This is his hit song “Swingin’” from 1980. Legendary honky-tonk voice here with his funky hillbilly band.

My favorite is his sublime hit of Billy Joe Shaver’s “I’m Just an Old Chunk of Coal.” One of the perfect country music recordings. I’ve seen Billy Joe Shaver play this song live, more than once, and nobody did it like John Anderson.

I’m watching police inefficiently trying to club protesters in front of them while mobbed by those behind them & thinking how quaint it seems compared the drone/robot swarms that will accompany the riot cop of the very near future.

This is a new South Korean tactical unit, first picture, and an April 2026 @SCMPNews article on China’s demonstrations of all-robot riot containment.

Chiricahua National Monument is now a national park! Truly a wonderland. Also lots of strange orange lights floating up & around these mountains after dark. One of our favorite places.
The rocks aren’t the only stars here. There are coatis, too!

The one thing Macron does well is *stay in power* no matter what happens in elections. If he turns this into Rodney King-style riots, maybe he thinks *he* will run the coming military government. And RN is permanently banned, its leaders guillotined, etc.
Macron vient de verser un bidon d'essence sur les mobilisations de samedi, les racailles viendront pour "venger ce crime raciste", ça promet...

I see a lot of guys developing the “high-strung neurotic” personality in middle age. Very yappy, easily hurt, has a string of personal insults ready if you trip one of their wires, accidentally or otherwise.

These skeletal crones cannot tolerate even a moment of silence once their squinting eyes catch sight of another human. The screeching usually relates to their unleashed “rescue dog” (“MY DOG’S FRIENDLY!!,” etc.) if I can decipher the squawking at all. I *never* acknowledge them.

There are many potential hazards for the daily walker on desert trails & jeep roads, but the only consistent threat I’ve encountered is “old woman screeching at me from a distance.” They go extra insane when you ignore them & turn off to a quieter path.

Who else is getting the French-Japanese-Spanish threads? I am losing my mind trying to keep up with everybody’s slang & slurs. Immensely entertaining.

My mediocre local sushi place has replaced the background-music stream with AI pop slop. I’d suspected this for a while, but finally shazam’d a couple tracks & they’re all unknown. Had to check because modern Hot Adult Contemporary is otherwise indistinguishable.

Yes, this is suddenly common. $1,500 a year in “public performance” fees is rough for a small business, so restaurants are using a $100 Suno subscription. But it really eats away at the customers’ soul, even if only the most sensitive-to-slop people notice it.
