Late afternoon in a city. The sky and surrounding environment are golden yellow, with tinges of blue. In the background are a few blue skyscrapers. A person with a traffic light for a head stands on a curb next to a round blue sign with a bus icon on it. The person is wearing a dark coat. The orange bulb on the person's traffic light face is lit. Next to the person is a small paper shopping bag. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

Japanese Knotweed is another plant that you really should not plant near data centers.
caitlinburke pro 3 hours ago
@dphiffer good tip! Folks, feel free to add warnings + regions where they are most disruptive to the local habitat.
williwaw pro 3 hours ago
Willows & cottonwoods shouldn't be planted either, as their roots can severely destroy water lines and will travel 20-25 feet looking for water. Especially near data centers that promised not to take water out of the ravaged Colorado River but now are suing to do so.
williwaw pro 3 hours ago
Also when stressed they send up even more trees so they're devilishy hard to remove. Look for any trees/plants in the poplar and salix genera for natives in your area to avoid these characteristics.

I discovered yesterday that the Communist activist and labor organizer Beatrice Lumpkin passed away earlier this month at the age of 107. Her first labor activities were in *1933* at the age of *14* (not as a school project or something; it was the Depression and she was working in a radio tube factory); her mother had been a Triangle Shirtwaist Factory worker and she soon began working for the Laundry Workers Industrial Union and the CIO.

Having moved with her second husband, a steelworker and union organizer, to Gary, Indiana, in the 1950s, she had been a resident of Chicago for almost 65 years and was on the faculty at Chicago's Malcolm X College (where she was a longtime member of the Chicago Teacher's Union). Her autobiography, "Joy in the Struggle: My Life and Love", was published in 2012. A truly remarkable life. See https://medium.com/eldeadli... and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki....

Rest in power.

Always wanted a Rivendell, but the money and opportunity never coincided. Also my Kogswell fit me so right it was hard to want to replace it.

Had a line on a Heron once, which iirc Peterson had some design involvement with (might be confused on that), but the seller only had a couple frames left and I only had about ten minutes to decide, and passed.

WAYANNAEYINANYONNIT

Album cover  artwork made by the Youth Landscapers Collective. The title is WAYANNAEYINANYONNIT, which is a colloquial Derbyshire phrase which translated to 'We are not having any of it'.

The cover shows line illustrations in pink, yellow and blue, various young people, a canary over a lamp and other little sketches.

My wife worked on this project with a wonderful Youth Arts Collective in the middle of England (pretty close to the absolute, furthest point from the sea, middle of England, Ashby de la Zouch).

The group are youth led with the adults there to facilitate. But the music is so good, and incredibly emotional. I don't know how much of the stories are told just in the songs, but it's powerful stuff.

Oh lol, there is some better text than I could write at the link.

Also if you fancy it the facilitator sent me some free download codes, so you don't have to fork out if you don't want to.

Just email me lharby[at]protonmail dot com and I can forward them on. I decided to buy but she was pretty adamant I could use the codez.

Dan Larson, 1935–2026

I just found out that my friend and mentor, J.D. (Dan) Larson, passed away. He was found unresponsive by a neighbour. He was 91 years old.

Dan had a long career in high-energy physics. After a PhD at Caltech, he developed particle accelerator technology at Oak Ridge and Argonne. In the 1990s he stepped away from research to care for his elderly parents in Independence, MO. He had been in poor health for the last couple of years, and died in the home he'd been born in. Dan was my mother-in-law's companion.

This picture was taken in December 2014, and Dan is holding up a collage my partner made for him to thank him for taking her to the airport in the middle of the night (hence the "3:10" clock). Dan drove a very well-used 1990 Ford station wagon, which had many sensors broken or failing. The airbag light was constantly flashing, as did the indicator in the collage. A tremendously precise man, it didn't bother Dan that his gas gauge was broken: he knew exactly how many miles he got on a full tank.

I'll miss him.

scruss pro Yesterday
Thanks, all. He was a good 'un.

@Argie It was hard not to spend a long time with Dan. No matter how hard you'd try to get him to talk about physics days (he was at Caltech while Feynman was, but Dan was all about experimental HE physics, not theoretical) or even his early computing days (he used a IBM 650 in the late 1950s), he'd want to tell you how he kept his salvaged lawn mower going out of bits he found in the neighbour's trash.

The most Dan moment I remember was when he was helping my MIL plan new railings around her roof deck. The house (1870s) had a door onto the roof, but no rails, and the city demanded everyone put in railings. Dan rolls up with a big printout of measurements, all tabulated in 8-decimal place Fortran scientific notation. They were (of course) correct, but the contractor had never seen anything like it

Singular Lentils In A Fine Broth

Organic lentils cooking on a stove somewhere out in the western US, way too close to the remains of an obliterated B52. What nation made that guidance system, and, how could they possibly be that pissed off? As Swami Beyondandonda once said, "If you take the "I," out of reality, what do you have left?"

Enough lentils for soup, and hummus. I soaked these for just under 24 hours, and they, (bless their little organic hearts,) were starting to ferment. But they were fully cooked in about 15 minutes of boiling. I bet billions of batches are cooked just like this to conserve fuel, and cut down on household heat, but I have clean water, and AC.

Behind them, completely covering the entire background is the head of a dinsaur-like creature. Its mouth seems to have a little blood coming out of it, suggesting it might have been shot by the person with the rifle.

Thank you, sir. Mine is in as well:

I am an American citizen. I've been one my whole life.

I would like to express my disapproval and objection to this proposal.

Effectively invented by the Roman Empire, triumphal arches are historical symbols of imperial, non-democratic leaders commemorating dubious moments of their significance: military victories and the comings-and-goings of family members into non-elected leadership.

Our national parks, along with the brave and dutiful individuals who care for them, are in dire need of funding and personnel support. I can think of countless ways our national efforts and treasure could be better spent than on this truly pathetic gesture, peddled by sycophants, to stroke the ego of a dangerous fool.
