WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY (PICS)
-
@Jestocost , I applaud your military service. From being a Vet from the USN, I totally understand you doing this. Thanks.

Oh lawdy, I did not intend to make that much of the thread about me personally. My b, folks, but thank you all.
We are not used to guns privately possessed over here. That's why I always get an uncomfortable feeling when I see someone handling a gun. I'm sure you're doing it with a lot of responsibility @Jestocost
Ah. I grew up in a house with more firearms than people in it. Started shooting when I was twelve. Most of the people I interact with on a daily basis come from similar backgrounds, so I forget sometimes how unusual that kind up upbringing actually is. I apologize for getting defensive like that. Very US-centric of me.
@goosehd hello, fellow rust belter! I'm from Missouri, but the story there is much the same. Glad you made it out alright.
@mclaincausey at the risk of toeing the line on the 'no politics' rule, my general opinion is that it's better to have it and not need it, than to risk needing it and not having it. Though I understand why many would disagree. I don't regret my career choices, but my personal preference would be for it to not be necessary for anyone to do this just to get their degree. Maybe someday…

Couldn’t agree more. Everyone should be able get a college or vocational education fully funded by the government IMO. It offers a high ROI to the government to have more educated people in society and the fact that the feds take a profitable interest on student loans is unacceptable. My degree has allowed higher income and a lot of incremental tax money for the government, and I get no concession for it. Just not fair that military service or crushing debt are the options for self-funded students.
Ok NOW I’ll shut up

Ok so now I have to get some indigo hickory stripe overalls and blue checked Vans.

Quick couple of hours at the Tate Modern with older kids this morning. Would’ve liked to spend longer but didn’t want to try their patience. Highlight for them was an interactive Yayoi Kusama “Obliteration Room”. Pretty cool, started off completely white and you could stick coloured stickers anywhere you like.

Wow–-that venue really is special. gotta google it---ok, built in 1968 originally as a movie theater.

…Marshall, Ludwig and looks like an Ampeg, this is the way.

Replenishing my bird feeder in the yard. Only seeds today, some days I’ll put out some bananas for the fruit eaters. I’ve had to work hard at establishing mine as popular eatery for the feathery crowd. Birds are very wary of people around here; still popular for kids to roam around with slingshots in hand. Plus plenty of cats too. Fortunate to have a river about 1 km from my house which helps with diversity and numbers. I get to see 10 or species daily, with some days hitting the 20-species highs. I’ll try to get a pic to share one of these days.
