Got this poster signed by Chris Rea a few years ago, been meaning to frame it. Got great memories of listening to Road to Hell and Auberge on a trip to Cornwall with my Mum.

This Rob Reiner discourse really just shows that Trump is deeply insecure and is lashing out at the fact that a man died and there were people who loved him that could mourn him when he was gone. Something Trump will never have.

Even for Trump, this ranks as several levels below the bottom of the barrel for crass, vile and utterly hideous. Not a scintilla of class, decency or compassion. You were warned, America, he told you who he was yet you chose to enable & elect a narcissistic sociopath with no impulse control.

I've played 133 escape rooms, and this may be my favorite thing out of any of them. It's an accessibility panel that gives players direct control over sound volume and flashing lights. (Plus it directs them to other accessibility options elsewhere in the room.)
Bravo to 60 Out Hollywood!

I've loved Sigourney Weaver ever since one of my all-time favorite movies, ALIEN. Couldn't resist going all fanboy on her yesterday & asking for a photo. She told me she's now in the cast of The Mandalorian. Talk about bad timing: she's now in that galaxy far, far away, years after I checked out! 💔

A vintage cast-iron radiator featuring a built-in warming compartment, often referred to as a plate or bread warmer. I don't think I've ever seen one of these before now.

The Steam Machine looks like it could be a good coding and web development device as well as for games. I hope the cost is reasonable.

After the Rubygems drama, I felt frustrated that I can’t escape evil people trying to dominate my life.
I found myself mourning the future I thought we would have; but also hopeful that it’s not too late to start choosing kindness.
