Last week my wife bought organic milk that came in a glass bottle. I’m really liking it but I’m not sure if it’s really different or just a phony “vinyl is better” thing happening.

Reasons to be Cheerful, MaryLou Costa: [Woodworking and Hugs: Inside the Mental Health Movement for Men](https://reasonstobecheerful.world/mens-sheds-mental-health-woodworking-therapy/) “Men will talk shoulder to shoulder, but not necessarily face to face.”

Charges and indictments are nice and all, but I won’t celebrate until Teflon Don is actually in jail. Even he is “innocent until proven guilty,” like it or not.

We don’t really have a chance to fix the gun problem in America until we fix the money in politics problem. There are a number of organizations working on this including represent.us, AmericanPromise.net, and MoveToAmend.org. I hope you check them out and consider helping.

I recently added a thunderbolt dock to my iMac so I could use an external SSD, monitor, and audio interface at the same time. Today, I found out that since this iMac is a 2017, it won’t run Sonoma. I though I’d get more time out of this dock than one year.

Does VisionOS require the Mind Stone or is that built in?

My problem with libertarians is they act like government is bad, business is good, but the reality is that any “construct of man” whether it be government, business, religion, charity, etc., can be poorly run, flawed, or even corrupt. They all need oversight. Like the checks and balances of our government itself, we can use these organizations to watch over each other.

People get mad at others for not voting, and then they get mad when they don’t vote for who they want them to vote for.

With today being the start of hurricane season, I’ll rant once again that I think that giving storms names is stupid. A number or even a letter would suffice. 2023-A1 (A for Atlantic, P for Pacific) makes sense, and they could be called A5, P4, etc. for short. Then they don’t have to come up with names nor retire them. There would be only one 2017-A8, for instance.

I am an open wheel racing fan but I’ve long hated the Indianapolis 500. Judging by the headlines, it sounds like this was another terrible one and justifies my feelings about it.
