So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.

Surveying the realm.
Northern Mockingbirds (Mimus polyglottos) are very protective of their territory. Here is one at op a small pine tree looking over land, probably hunting.
"Look for Northern Mockingbirds sitting high on tall shrubs, poles, or utility lines. Around your yard, you can also look for them running or hopping along your mowed lawn. You may be able to first identify the presence of a Northern Mockingbird by listening for its song which usually mimics numerous other birds at once." - allaboutbirds.org

Misread that story....
I thought it said he lost a cracker,
Instead of backer.
His backers are crackers, so not really a mis-reading.
@ScottSoCal @theautisticcoach @actuallyautistic @actuallyautistics I recently moved. This has meant not just picking my current zip code vs the prior one, but more importantly, remembering it's not the next zip over, where I lived for 20yrs, but not in the last six.
Up side: The really good bakery is close by again.

On Saturday, filling out paperwork, I blanked on my home address. I've lived here 20 years and that's the first time that's ever happened. The only address I could think of was my work address.
Do any of my #ActuallyAutistic #AuDHD comrades relate to being in the middle of an action (writing a tweet or SMS, getting off the couch to go to a different room, etc) only to have NO F**** CLUE what you were doing or why you're doing this?
Income tax isnβt just about paying for roads & defence forces etc. Itβs also about wealth redistribution. Not to the point of deterring people from following lucrative careers, or to relieve people capable of at least partially supporting themselves from doing so, but to ensure that no one suffers from unacceptable levels of poverty & all of the disadvantage that entails, while a small percentage of people accrue wealth many times in excess of what anyone could ever spend on even a luxurious lifestyle. #Tax #WealthInequality #Equity
I may need to learn that Klingon drinking song.
I'm think my terrible singing could be excused if it's in Klingon. Besides, if anyone complains then they have insulted my honour and only blood would settle the offence!

A girl graduating high school next week will come home from the beach later today and find that while she was out, her parents found and bought her a car. I no longer have a spare car taking up space in my driveway. The loan I got for the new EV will soon have a large payment made, to reduce the balance.
A good day for all of us, I think.
Twitter is the fourth most hated brand in the US after Fox News, FTX and the Trump Organization. A truly impressive degree of brand destruction in less than a year.
And he's doing this as the parent of a trans daughter.
I can't even imagine being that vile and callous.
"Elon Musk wants to criminalize gender-affirming care, and he supports imprisoning any therapists and medical professionals involved.
The Twitter CEO on Friday morning promoted a transphobic documentary produced by the petulant, vicious, and dull extremist commentator Matt Walsh."

@Ulrich_the_Elder I live in Sweden and we have a lot of free or almost free services. We have affordable healthcare, free healthcare for children, social security etc.
A visit to the ER costs $30. Same cost for an ambulance ride. There is a yearly max cost for prescriptions of around $230. There's also a maximum cost of visits to doctors etc of $130.
I've never heard of a Swede who went bankrupt due to health care bills.
Something is even more wrong with a media that would encourage this.
But outrage draws so many eyeballs, and so many clicks!
Itβs the media stupid.
For two years all I hear about was her emails, yup the ones that led to zero crimes and zero charges.
Now that trump has admitted to espionage, the same media can barely be bothered to report about it.
A fascist traitor who killed a million people, tried to steal an election, attacked the Capitol and committed grave crimes against America; is free to run for president again. Something is very wrong with a country that would allow this.
