(1632) Evening all. Probably not going to have time for a film … just various items as they come to hand, dinner etc.

14. Santa Barbara courthouse explodes?

As in physically explodes? Shall find out. (2048) Nothing in search, nothing on Gab so far.

Toodles reports:

One of the 3 networks had something a hour ago but nothing really…only two people nearby…I think nearby were injured. I wonder just how do they know that. People are not allowed in the area cause it is too dangerous.I am freaked out by the woman being squeezed for 2 hours by a python in her kitchen in Thailand. 2 hours before getting help!!! I am never going to Thailand!

13. Now and next

… flee the UK’s NHS:

It’s getting to the point where some might contemplate emigration so as not to be murdered by a doctor.

If it can happen to the Monarch it can happen to anyone. In January 1936 the dying King George V was given a hurry-up kill shot of morphine and cocaine; allegedly the moment was chosen to let The Times break the news, instead of the evening papers. The King’s last words to his physician were ‘God damn you.’

(JH: ha ha, maybe it ain’t no joke.)

12. Just a word to patrons of nourishing unherdables

Firstly, the whole unherdables thang is happening because a certain platform stole my (our) 18 year old blog on the day of its birthday … really nice people, eh? And of course, there was the little matter of trying to stay afloat to take care of, whilst a more permanent solution was found.

Not going to report on that specifically and today was part of the build … had to be done, chaps and chapesses … it was done and part tested. Also tried out the Ctrl + scrolling wheel thing today and while it does enlarge and reduce, it needs a very soft touch to keep it to 5 to 10%. I apple-log to all again but the template-theme, despite the font size, has much going for it.

Right … onto the topic of this post item … things which you write. Mate today made a good point when we were discussing putting things up he would like to see. I said he was welcome … just send it or drop it.

Ah, said he … my strength, he said, is the IT, that’s what we’re doing today … your expertise is … er … otherwise. I tumbled to it. Now I’m fine with ghosting something you boys and gals want to post … or even just giving it the once over, proofing, maybe not even touching at all … but …

… to not touch at all does bring in platform rules from those above, upon me, also laws of the land, copyright etc. … so it’s still a two way thing in that way. Also … you see the amount of space we use, also sparing with links … also to where the links are … there are still considerations, let us say.

Also … I’m blogging most of the waking hours myself. Happy to do … time and ease of doing it is really the thang though.

Let’s test this out … Steve dropped 820:2 … now, my job is to do justice to it, esp. as many of you have no access to X. I do have access, so I took some screenshots and pics:

So, most will get the general idea … it’s now up to the “dropper” to see if the main points were covered … if not, point them out in a subsequest comment underneath … as long as we end up, overall, with the topic covered.
