Twitter's Moving Up in the Blog-archy, with ''Notes''

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @mythociate (21437) • Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 24 Jun 22

Twitter was always "a microblog" before (140- and then 280-character posting-limit, with no editing a post after you post it), but they're testing "Notes"---a function that'll let users send 2,500 words (with a 100-character...

Luckily, 'the People Telling You that Democracy is Dying' have NO IDEA what ''Democracy'' is!

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @mythociate (21437) • Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 21 Jun 22

I'll start with the big politics-nerd "Umm, Actually ...": Umm, Actually? our government is a "democratic republic." That said, our government's relationship with "Democracy" begins-&-ends with 'voters installing new officials &...

Unusual. I am being stalked.

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (157552) • United States 5 Aug 21

Normally I would wait several hours to start another discussion, but I will be gone all day today. And it seems the bank is stuck, and very few people are here responding. I want to write before I forget. In my dreams last...

My First Cup Of Coffee

Marlina @marlina (154166) • Canada 4 Aug 21

I love sipping my first cup of coffee in the early morning when most of the city is still asleep. Nothing like it! The sun looks like it wants to come out but is not quite certain yet. I hope it makes the right decision to shine...

I bought a pool............

rebelann1949 @rebelann (111163) • El Paso, Texas 4 Aug 21

No, not a big one, just a teeny kiddie pool. After I did the recycle thingy I went to the nearby walmart and found they were on sale for $7.98. Maybe this time I can get it to last more than a...

My giggly teenagers drove me nuts tonight.

The Horse @TheHorse (205696) • Walnut Creek, California 5 Aug 21

My guitar teaching week ends with two 15-year-old girls who are best friends. I work with them together for an hour, and they have been fun over the last several months, but they're also driving me to drink. One understands music...

We're all the same

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (57843) • Centralia, Washington 4 Aug 21

As you age your soul and mind tend to wander home. My Mom was typical. She wandered into dementia and sometimes wandered out again. She'd talk about her brother. The year he broke his leg in a skiing accident and was quite...

Explain to Me Why Tenure is Worth More than a Higher Wage

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @mythociate (21437) • Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 28 Jul 21

In another NIGHTLINE-story, I heard that a college-professor quit the university because--even though they offered him 'more money' than he was currently making--they wouldn't give him tenure! Why not take the money?

Facebook Warps Users' Minds: No Real Harm, but Users DO Need a Reality Check sometimes

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @mythociate (21437) • Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 24 Jul 21

I'm more-&-more convinced that people need to ... well, they need to grow up! Texas Democrats--when things aren't going their way in their Congress--RUNNING AWAY ... the old 'if I don't PLAY Tag, you can't tag me (nanny-nanny...

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine It's like if you went to a marriage-counselor, and their whole business was just 'planning renewal-ceremonies.' Yes, the weddings & ceremonies are important (I guess they give the couple 'some ideal circumstances to shot-for'); but the ceremonies are THE...

AnjaP @Rollo1 (16679) • Boston, Massachusetts 21 Jul 21

It’s another soggy morning. The sky is dark, grey and heavy with pregnant clouds. Although there is no sun, there is no lack of heat. The air is a warm, wet blanket that swaddles me and threatens to smother me. This is July....

paigea I will keep them all! I bundled up to go snowshoeing with a friend all winter. Complete with a thermos of hot food to stop for a "picnic". Summer I can find a cool lake or Creek for paddling my kayak. And the garden! Starting to enjoy the produce!

It’s the end of the academic year and in primary school, many pupils like to give their teacher a little leaving gift. Of course the problem is what to get. Some give a bottle of wine or chocolates, but you don’t want to...

Oh snap! Covid cases have tripled over a two week period.

The Horse @TheHorse (205696) • Walnut Creek, California 23 Jul 21

My morning cup of coffee was rendered a bit more bitter this morning by a news story stating that Covid cases have risen substantially in the US over a two week period. Apparently, only about 55% of the US population has had at...

Raj @Butterfingers (66585) • India 23 Jul 21
