Some years ago I had a cherry blossom tree I planted in my backyard - this was based on one of my photos of it one spring. Still makes me smile.

Todayโs job numbers came in higher than expected, with the U.S. adding 253,000 nonfarm jobs in April. Unemployment fell yet again, to 3.4%, matching a rate not seen since 1969. Black unemployment is at an all-time low of 4.7%. For Hispanics itโs 4.4%, and for Asian Americans, 2.8%. The rate for adult women is 3.1%. Average hourly wages rose 0.5%.
This good economic news didnโt come from nowhere. The Biden administration has focused on building infrastructure, bringing supply chains home, and bolstering new manufacturing. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Act, the CHIPS and Science Act, and the Inflation Reduction Act have invested in workers.

56 years ago, a young woman secretly jumped onto the road to run the Boston Marathon.
Girls were thought too weak to run that distance. We could spend 15 hours in labor, but were too weak to run 26.2 miles.
Kathrine Switzer paved the way for me to take up marathon running, which I did for a number of years.
She had fortitude.
And she insisted on wearing her lipstick - which I did, too.
Thank you, Kathrine!

A #London scene that I did about four years ago. Yes, I think I've mentioned I need a 12 step for Red Phone Boxes. LOL

Yeah it's fun and cute but it's a toy. Plus it probably would not be protected by copyright since it was not written by a human.
@Richard_Littler
I want to set out the ideas I would vote for and hope to spark a reasoned, polite debate.
Principle 1
"All services and products essential to the functioning of our society and the wellbeing of the population should be in public ownership, not for profit and all surpluses reinvested to improve the service to the consumer. That's health, education, finance, energy, water, broadband, communications, transport etc. with no opportunity for private profiteering."

Have you ever come up with an original way of doing something, only to be told it wonโt work?

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.
