I stumbled into a podcast from a Psychologist about Trump. Basically he was saying Trump is a malignant narcissist, with sadistic tenancies! 😯 I see that now, about how he likes to make people suffer like tarring percieved enemies and taking away security details. Like Republican Senator...

Crikey, what a first day for the Start of the Ashes. Aussie fast bowler Stark got 7 wickets I think. Wickets toppled and Australia came in and too did poorly with batting.. It was a big record day for the bowlers since 1932 ... ?.

On another tangent, I'm tired of getting overwhelmed with all my IT issues. It takes up too much of my time. I'm also helping out two declining elderly friends with mostly their IT issues. Spam, scams, apps, basic computer literacy. Like me told to reinforce security for one account needing me...

It starts tomorrow, Friday. I'd like to watch it or listen to it on the radio. It starts at 1:20 pm Perth time or 4:20pm Sydney time. We Sandgropers are always behind the times. We don't like our curtains scorched! 😉

I still like the incumbent sensibly Royals who mostly champion so many worthy causes. I deeply respect Chales III for his free and clear voice on issues like the environment, and likewise William's, the heir apparent. They say it as they see it with the liberty of not needing to be elected. Of...

May the best team win. The first of 5 starts in my city of Perth and our wicket is very fast. Lillie liked it. It's great listening to it on my radio as I do my chores. Later I love watching the highlights on tv. I heard there 's a number of young and upcoming players joining the Aussie Ashes...

Wishing you a quick recovery Thomas and nice to see you back. What do you think about the military conscription issues currently in Germany? Not too popular I'd guess.

Fair enough falling off our perches Craig. Time to play our own tune, and the Poms respect that. Maybe they're tired of us hanging off their apron stings. I doubt that. We'll still be close in so many ways like with Global politics, the Commonwealth, same language, trade and numerous other...

I agree Craig, and well remember those torrid times. "God save the Queen, but who will save the Governor General" comes to mind. What if we totally thrash the Poms in the soon to start Ashes Series, and in spite the UK gets our GG to sack the Australian incumbent governing labour party! 🤣. In...

Cornering and probing Meta AI, in Messenger, in Facebook... It gave me some interesting answers to my prompts with me changing my writing style at times, from Aussie slang to cool crisp English, like I used for writing my teaching notes ... What interested me was the way Meta adopted my style...

For our Dog Lovers: ed dogs thousands of years ago The diversity of modern-day dog breeds might have emerged thousands of years ago. An analysis of ancient skulls reveals a distinctive dog skull shape — a shortened snout and widened face, compared to wolves — first seen in...

From my favourite Science subscription "Nature Briefing": Globally, greenhouse-gas emissions — which include methane, nitrous oxide and fluorinated gases as well as carbon dioxide — are still rising. But there are signs they will peak around 2030, and some researchers argue that carbon dioxide...

We're having a warm spring in WA with already days over 30C. It'll get much hotter in janurary. I like this warm weather. Big juicy Mangoes are so, so nice. About $2.50 each and now recently it's said they have a moderate glucose GI level because of its high fibre. 👍 I heard from our Aussie ABC...

That's so sad Craig. More and more the affects of Global Warming and extreme weather events are happening and seen and understood yet many still close their eyes to the obvious for the sake of profit. That's really sad. It's a road that may end us all, like the dinosours 65 miĺion years ago. I...
