no idea how badly Bluesky will encode this, but here goes.

How is it that the menus on Apple Reminders for the IPad are different than the menus on MacOS version. The MacOS version of the information menu popup doesn’t have section or subtask choices. WTF!

Last minute addition to weekend reading.

Weekend reading.

Are you looking for me? Put on a happy face….

About an hour before sunset at St Pete beach.

There must be some mistake. They got the wrong guy.

Civilization dying you say? I read about that recently. It doesn’t seem so bad…

Turtle party in Prospect Park

MVP of snow shoveling..

New Year, New York is prepared.

Happy New Year wherever you are… Photo from a few weeks ago. Approach to LGA

New Years Eve comfort meal…. Rotini with mushroom arrabbiata sauce and sautéed dandelion greens with a glass of red wine… Bluesky on my iPad in the background helping keep my blood pressure elevated…🤪

I always take some pictures of the view from the plane window. Most are completely generic and forgettable. But sometimes…

It is that time of year to retire old cables. first to go…

Getting ready for Christmas with some lights and a drawing from St Petersburg artist Adam Turkel www.etsy.com/shop/AdamTpo...

The only float that mattered in the Macys Thanksgiving day parade.

I just got rained on inside at Charles de Gaulle, ok, the rumors about this airport being Bad are true (Weirdly enough, despite a lifetime of international travel, I have somehow never connected through CDG before)

Truck in the neighborhood.

Back in Brooklyn. New roommate. He has a dog that likes to play.

Including Virginia….

I made a new friend in Brooklyn.

Keeping it clean.

Prospect Park Brooklyn in the afternoon.

I was walking aimlessly down bleeker street as one does on a lovely fall evening in NY. There was a sandwich board that said $1.50 oysters until we run out…. So there was purpose to my walk after all.

Sunset in Brooklyn.

Tony, you bloody dead set legend mate 🙏 #GoodNews www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

This is a trap. On my morning walk to try to exercise a little bit. There is a taco food cart at the entrance to the park.

Someone put soap suds in the fountain at Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn.

I live in near this intersection. The city crews are under pressure to do this or risk losing needed state funds. This is extortion by the state. DeSantis and his goons in the state legislature should be ashamed of themselves and if they won’t then we should shame them every day.

Just watched Marvel Thunderbolts. This did not need to be a movie. It could have been a 30 minute What if... episode with Yelena and Bob working out their issues. Setting the climatic scene in NY at the Avengers Tower was just sad. Valentina had so many better secret sites.

I am approaching an infinity point. My current todo list is a list of lists I need to make.

Post a non-religious photo you think of as holy ichef.bbci.co.uk/ace/standard...

The roof of Tropicana Stadium is being replaced while a hurricane scout cloud is watching. No doubt waiting for the right moment to call in a CAT5 to wipe away all the work. Also the Rays are being sold and the team will move away by the time repairs are complete.

timeline cleanse. listen to the song bird sing.

I’ve been in NYC this week and the worst crime I have seen is this bullshit called the Hudson yards. What an abomination of hack architecture and unnecessary office space. Apparently really important architects were involved to make the least creative unneeded buildings.

I’m in NYC this week and just saw this ad in the subway. Task Rabbit is still a thing!!

Inside you(me) there are two cowards. One afraid to speak their mind. Two lashes out and then claims to only be joking. I expect there is a yet undiscovered third coward inside all of us that will reveal itself in these coming months.

It's strange to read this story in the context of the flood in Texas where county residents refused to use money for a flood warning system, from the federal government because Biden is a communist. How do they expect the USA to rise to challenge. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/14/o...

I think it’s time to use “Zoinks” as a response to all the insanely stupid stuff our government is doing. youtu.be/jle6XEfHOuo?...

This is a psychotic response to street art. There’s no safety issue with a crosswalk mural. Banning displays that convey a message is a clear violation of the first amendment. Shame on any local public officials for complying with this. stpetecatalyst.com/state-bans-p...

I lived in NYC for >20 years and was a frequent visitor before and continue to be. Mamdani as mayor seems like a reasonable outcome for the city. He's got some new ideas. He represents a large and growing demographic (recent immigrants with family from around the world). Seems like the future.

I woke up this morning without any idea what to do. I am at once angry and saddened at what is happening. At the same time there seem to be a lot of people living their best lives. Then I remembered that people adapt. Especially people on the edges. They find a way to survive and even thrive. Peace.
