Trying to keep my faith, in a post-factual world.
Fun fact: if you do a Google image search of the eagle, the result is "The image displays a gilded eagle emblem, which is identified as the Parteiadler (Nazi Eagle).

This specific emblem once adorned the entrance to Adolf Hitler's private living quarters in the Old Reich Chancellery in Berlin."
This is what rock-bottom polling does to a man with a fragile ego.

"Place looks wonderful from here and
you folks look wonderful from here!
And seein' you there
With a smile on your face
Makes me shout
This must be the place."
"Ladies and gentlemen, you're such a wonderful crowd. We'd like to play a little tune for you. It's one of my personal favorites, and I'd like to dedicate it to a young man who doesn't think he's seen anything good today. Cameron Fry, this one's for you.

🎵 Danke schoen, darling, danke schoen... 🎵"

Okay, so now my outside is 65, but my view outward is still brand new, when I stop and notice what's always real about me.

There should definitely be an app for that.
I love these photos of my nan, my granddad and my uncle dancing in my grandparents' living room in Nottingham in 1972.

I am massively intrigued to know what the song was.

Two ends of the ingenious invention spectrum that fascinate me: Ernest Lawrence builds a tiny table top cyclotron, and WWII soldiers construct a radio receiver with no power source out of scrap parts.

Having seen marble installations a few times, I think that Trump's bathroom marble was fake. False consistencies in the grain patterns.
