Reuters, you taint-licking cuck.

This was an illegal invasion of a sovereign nation by a mentally-compromised criminal, carried out without proper approval or consent of Congress.

Congratulations!

I came in partway thru the year but still found it inspiring.

I'm not out walking every day (yet!) but I did a lot more walking in 2025 than 2024 and I think your photos had a hand in that improvement.

I wouldn't mind a break from all the chaos, personally.

What this means, primarily, is that the part of my brain that's been worrying about "what happens" to these books finally has a resolution. 20 yrs. of low-level worry, distress & distraction is now relieved.

I'm certain I'll have more to say about this in my diary. It's just: this is big news.

Some statistics:

* Begun May 1979. Still growing.

* 134 bound volumes.

* 28,237 hand-written pages.

* Approx. 9 linear feet of shelf space, if stored in a line.

I'm kinda in shock, I think. It's taken so long to complete this task, I never thought I'd actually do it.

Oh my god... that is absolutely *frightening* to hear someone say that.

Lovely! It reminds me of the bluff where Carl Sagan began the first episode of "Cosmos."
