back from then

by

I just now came back from the future.  Hard times.  I finally made it!  I came back to tell everyone we’ve got to change our ways.  It’s bad – really bad.

We have to stop driving ICEs, give up GMOs, stop racing up and down the strips at night with loud bikes and four-bys, stop mining the oceans, get rid of all drug dealers, and dump Trump.  Donald Trump damages the entire world so badly that we end up in lawlessness.

ICEs (Internal Combustion Engines) need to be abandoned immediately, in your time, to lean down the greenhouse effect.  Tens of thousands will perish from floods, fires, storms, cyclones, but mostly heat.  Cities burn like forest fires.  All this is caused by carbon.  We knew that back in the 1970s but only began to forcibly do something about it by the 2030s.  By then, it was too late.  So I came back to tell you.

More later when I get back another time.

teaching without filler

I had to comment.  I just had to.  While reading a tutorial on changing line types for different wires (Optimizing Wiring Line Styles in Revit for Better Readability, just below the video), I wondered why this person had so much filler in their writing.  It turns out that it was a transcript of the guy talking.  Now all that is fine – how people speak is their own business – but why so much filler?

“And so now what we’re going to do is we’re going to go ahead and change the line type,” rather than, “We will change the line type.”

And so what we’re going to do now is we’re going to go ahead and

Can we not cut out all that superfluous crap?

American politics

Waking up on Canada Day, it seems odd that the first news I read online today was about American politics.

Trump’s ‘big, beautiful bill’ awaits final Senate vote

Trump says DOGE is a monster that may ‘go back and eat Elon’

Even the Canadian news involves their President Chump.

Canadians reclaim Maple Leaf flag amid Trump threats

Donald Trump live: US Senate votes on amendments to ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’

It’s like watching old Soviet-era politics.

39 percent

by

Ole Trumpy down south has hit the lowest 100-day approval rating as President of the U. S. of A. since F. D. Roosevelt’s third term, according to USA Today.  He now sits at 39%.  I hope he continues with his belligerent rhetoric toward Canada and the rest of the world so he can be ousted from presiding.
