RIP JosĂ© ‘Pepe’ Mujica

6 Captivating Murals by Cristian Blanxer and Victor GarcĂ­a Repo: streetartutopia.com/street-art

Photorealistic mural of JosĂ© ‘Pepe’ Mujica painted by Cristian Blanxer and Victor GarcĂ­a Repo on a weathered concrete wall in Aracena, Spain. The former Uruguayan president is portrayed with a contemplative expression, resting his hand on his chin. His silver hair, furrowed brows, and thoughtful gaze are captured in vivid detail. The background includes bookshelves and warm-toned wooden panels, adding depth and an intimate, reflective atmosphere to the piece.

Screenshot from Bluesky. User Don Moynihan (@donmoyn.bsky.social) posted "Cassocks are red/Conclaves are dope/Wake up babe we got a" and then he posted a screenshot of Laura Loomer posting WOKE MARXIST POPE in all caps, *at* the new pontiff's twitter account @drprevost.

@cobalt123 The "reduced" baked goods section at our grocery store isn't even day old, it's day of. My wife and I refer to it as the "used bread" section, and shopping it is the best part of our trip.

@tusk81 She was just honored at MCC's Miscast - I don't know if her speech will be eventually be broadcast, but it was a good one (and she was introduced by surprise guest Chris Perfetti (Jacob), who did a great job). mcctheater.org/miscast/miscast

Happy #AprilFools day to all who celebrate

April 1:
the only day of the year that people critically evaluate things they find on the Internet before accepting them as true.

I bought a new travel adapter today. It’s got usb-c! And, thank goodness, it can safely charge a Sony PSP. I was worried when I didn’t see it on the packaging. Still relevant 11 years after it was discontinued, I guess.

The image shows a packaging box for a 3-in-1 universal travel adapter. It highlights features such as ultra-fast charging, compatibility with over 200 countries, and a 30W output. The bottom includes technical specifications like connector types and plugImage shows a partially unfolded instruction manual for a power adapter. It includes information about USB ports, a Type-C port, and icons representing various devices that can be connected, such as smartphones and MP3 players.

Anyone else going to #legalweek this week?

Anyone else’s legal week app showing their agenda in the wrong time zone?

Happy World Poetry Day to all who celebrate. If you’re interested in writing poetry yourself, I hope this poem will be of some use.

Ten Rules for Aspiring Poets

1.  Poetry does not have to rhyme.
     Well, at least not all the time always.

2.  Metaphors can lend a poem power
     (but mixing them isn’t good).
      Should they start to fly in all directions,
      nip them in the bud.

3.  Focus and concentration
     are important skills to hone.
     Close the door. Turn off the wi-fi.
     Don’t get distracted by your ph

4.  Avoid clichés like the plague.

5.  Don’t write stuff that’s a bit vague.

6.  The use of unnecessarily long words
     may result in reader alienation.
     Curb your sesquipedalianism
     to obviate any obfuscation.

7.  Always proof-read you’re work.
     Accuracy can be it’s own reward!
     And remember that the penis
     mightier than the sword.

8.  Check haiku closely
     for lines which have too few
     or too many syllables.

9.  Never ever follow rules.

Imagine if our President got as angry and vengeful over mass shooters as he did over those who damaged a few cars.

Dead children in classroom get thoughts and prayers. Teslas get executive action.

Mass murderers are people who were bullied, play violent video games, or have mental health issues. People who torch cars are terrorists.

Donald J. Trump tweet: 
| look forward to watching the sick terrorist thugs
get 20 year jail sentences for what they are doing
to Elon Musk and Tesla. Perhaps they could serve
them in the prisons of El Salvador, which have
become so recently famous for such lovely
conditions!

I hope everyone realizes that scrubbing historical references from websites is no different than burning books.

But I won't, #Spotify

An overly dramatic Spotify cancellation page and playlist, beginning with the text: "It's hard to say goodbye. But it's easy to rejoin Premium anytime."
2025-03-13

After years of convenience, I finally quit #Spotify

Price hikes, shady policies, shady #politics, AI-generated garbage, and ads on a paid plan—I hit my breaking point. Switched to #Deezer, saved money, got better audio quality, and haven't looked back.

Ten years ago, Sir Terry Pratchett died. But "A man’s not dead while his name is still spoken."

We carry his memory with each DokuWiki release being named after one of his many Discworld characters.

If you never read a book by him - now is a good time to do so!

Gonna repeat myself here: The generation of leaders that got us into this mess will not be the ones to get us out of it. https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2025/03/12/rahm-emmanuel-president-2028-column-00224241

Then again, the vultures came out right after him, so there’s that for a sign.

Bald eagle on ice. Probably not a metaphor.

A bald eagle stands on a frozen body of water, with rocky formations in the background. The scene is serene, with soft focus elements in the foreground.
