Whilst another magical and revolutionary device will appear in the hands of Tim Ferris and the rest of the Twitterati in the coming week, I got my very own magical iPad iSlate today.
Its awesome to think that this rock stone has been on the planet for around 600 million years - so it pre-dates the existence of humans, dinosaurs, insects, and even complex plants.

Ryan Tubridy (born 28 May 1973), nicknamed "Tubs",is an Irish broadcaster, a presenter of live shows on radio and television in Ireland. Only in his forties, he is one of the youngest presenters on Raidió TeilifÃs Éireann (RTÉ), and is the one who earns the most.
Current host of long-running TV chat programme The Late Late Show and a weekday morning radio show called Tubridy, Tubridy was a pioneering member of the Twitterati before he departed in August 2011.
Tubridy previously presented RTÉ 2fm breakfast radio show The Full Irish, which at its end was the second most popular[citation needed] radio programme in Ireland. For five seasons from 2004 until 2009, he presented the Saturday night TV chat show Tubridy Tonight on RTÉ One. He later left RTÉ 2fm for a number of years to present weekday morning radio programme The Tubridy Show on RTÉ Radio 1, but returned to RTÉ 2fm in 2010 to present his current weekday morning radio show from 09:00 to 11:00, following the termination of The Gerry Ryan Show with the presenter's sudden death. He has also hosted the Rose of Tralee contest on two occasions.
As part of a two-book deal with HarperCollins—and in a nod to his passion for U.S. politics—Tubridy penned JFK in Ireland, a profile of U.S. President John F. Kennedy's 1963 visit to Ireland. He is currently working on a second book.

Interviews - Curated By Daniel Rolnik The world's most adorable art critic, Daniel Rolnik, has hand-selected paintings, sculptures, and photographs by contemporary artists to display at CURIO in Venice Beach. Works enchanted with humor, intellect, wit, wisdom, and sex will all bout heads in the stunning rough luxe interior of the gallery founded by acclaimed artist Anne Faith Nicholls. And all those brave enough to bear witness will bathe in the sweet reward of their journey, like Dionysus upon a calm sea of grapes. In March of this year, Daniel was cited in Angeleno Magazine as a member of LA's Top Twitterati due to his excellent interviews with artists and articles on art. He's been published in newspapers such as LA Weekly and The Jewish Journal as well as popular blogs like Beautiful/Decay, FecalFace, ForYourArt, and A&O. In addition, he was also one of the few official corespondents during the monumental Pacific Standard Time event that took over Southern California's art scene. Featuring the art of Joshua Petker, Jim Mahfood, Ellen Schinderman, Will Deutsch, Ryan McIntosh, Mark Hanauer, Septerhed, Jennie Cotterill, Rebecca Manson, Jesse Hazelip, Robert Fontenot, Alex Andre, Lena Verderano, Reynoso Matt, Reynoso, Isabelle Alford-Lago, Scott Belcastro, XVALA, Josh Atlas, Orson Oblowitz, Gregory Siff, America Martin, Michelle Devereux, Luis Arevalo and more. Daniel says: "The show features works by artists I've interviewed over the last year, ranging from sculptures, to dioramas, to drawings, to paintings, and everything in-between, round the bend, and outside. It mimics life, since not all of the artists are from the same background or age group or anything like that. They're individuals who I felt some kind of psychic connection to, which drew me into what they were doing with their creative spirits. So, some of the artists literally have their BFA's from universities like Carnegie Melon and mfa's from UCLA, while others never went to a day of art school in their life. For me, this show is more about the story of each individual, than the story tying the whole thing together. For example, Jennie Cotterill's piece is a small section of a much larger body of work named The Museum of Procrastination that features a complete audio tour adventure story and the works on paper by Adam Roth [not attached] are snapshots of a rich galactic universe he's created in order to deal with his internal struggles and ordeals with surgery starting from a very young age. I could go into detail about every work in the show! I love each one!!! YAY!!!!"

We had a feeling that Gnomad snuck out on Friday night. This is how we found him Saturday morning. Looks like he had a bit of the drink and too much fun with the ladies. Needless to say, he was in good spirits and ready for another adventure with us.

Here is an out-of-focus picture I really wish had come out, but I'm posting it anyway. If you take I-71 east from Cincinnati toward Louisville, you'll pass a big landfill on the north side of the road not long after the highway splits from I-75. The guy who owns this landfill likes to park big semi-truck trailers on his manufactured hill advertising various Republican politicians. Insane former Governor Matt Bevin had his name on the trailer for a while. Now it's Trump. This is the most appropriate endorsement of Trump I can imagine. I will now always think of this as the Trump Dump.
Speaking of evil Republican politicians, let me take this opportunity to write a long post about Kentucky politics. I mentioned 475-term Senator Mitch McConnell in that last picture about the collapsed Brent Spence Bridge. If you've been following me for a while, you might remember that post celebrating the election of Democrat Andy Beshear as Kentucky governor when I talked about Mitch's chances of getting elected to a 476th term in 2020. A lot of national analysts were taking Beshear's win as a sign that McConnell was in trouble, and the national analysts largely believed this because national analysts never actually go to a place like Kentucky.
Yes, polls have often shown Mitch to be a very unpopular senator in his home state, but you have to know Kentucky to understand just how the numbers in these polls punk the analysts. Mitch has been unpopular among Kentucky voters because he's not conservative enough. Voters who say that are never going to vote for a Democrat over Mitch. If anything, Mitch has in the past been at risk of an attack from the Right in the primaries, and nutty Matt Bevin actually came within a whisper of prying Mitch from his seat in the primary in 2014. (And oh, how different the last six years would have been.)
But Mitch has solved a lot of that problem over the last six years. He single-handedly blocked a Supreme Court appointment President Obama should have made in 2016, then served Aspiring Dictator Trump well and attained his grand 30-year dream of remaking the entire Federal Judiciary in his image. There weren't going to be a lot of defections among Republican voters in the primary this time around. If the Democrats had a shot at that seat, they needed to find their own perfect candidate. Unfortunately, the closest thing Kentucky had to that perfect candidate got elected governor in 2019, and he was busy ticking off Kentucky voters by trying to protect them against their will from a global pandemic.
But national people didn't know any of this, so activist types were willing to get behind the first Democrat who declared they were running against Mitch. Unfortunately, the first Democrat to declare she was running was a former Marine Corps fighter pilot named Amy McGrath. But while you might think a former Marine fighter pilot would be a good candidate for public office in a place like Kentucky, Amy McGrath doesn't really have the personality for it. She's never held public office, and her entire previous political career involved getting beaten by Andy Barr in the 2018 race for the Sixth U.S. Congressional District of Kentucky. This district includes Lexington, and it competes with the 3rd (Louisville) to be Kentucky's most left-leaning district. McGrath got beat by about 3%. Worse, though, was that her views on most things were kind of vague (probably by design), and she even seemed to lean more Trumpish than McConnell in some areas. She was sort of a blank slate candidate who might look good on paper but had nothing underneath the shell.
But Outside people, especially the oft maligned Hollywood Leftist Eliteâ„¢ and the Liberal Twitterati, saw McGrath's name against McConnell before they saw anybody else's, and just any name was good enough, so they threw a ton of Outside money at her early in the process. This gave her a tremendous lead in money and name recognition against any other Democrat in the primary, including the guy who I think all the Outside people who donated early would have voted for if they actually lived in Kentucky. A Progressive activist named Charles Booker came into the primary race after McGrath had already sucked up all the oxygen (and money) in the room, so he couldn't mount any real campaign against McGrath until a few advertising blitzes at the very end. But this was the Pandemic year, and early voting had already started well before Booker could buy any ads, so a bunch of people voted for McGrath because they'd never heard of Booker.
Now, I don't know that Booker would have ultimately performed any better against Mitch than McGrath. It gets to issues of endemic racism -- Booker is a Black community activist from Louisville's West Side -- and those enduring dreams from the Progressive Left that there's some vast, untapped potential among the general populace yearning to vote for people far Left of where the American political cognoscenti typically goes. I'll do a long post on that eventually, but I don't really buy that theory in a place like Kentucky. But regardless, Booker couldn't have done worse than McGrath. McGrath's campaign raised almost twice as much money as Mitch in campaign contributions, but Mitch still beat her at the polls by about 20%. Because she's the political equivalent of a dead fish.
So it's six more years of Mitch. Unless he dies, which, he's old, so that could happen. And though there's still a couple of run-off elections for the two senate seats in Georgia before the whole thing is really decided, Mitch will in all likelihood continue to be the U.S. Senate Majority Leader. This means he'll be able to single-handedly gum up the works of government and prevent President Biden from doing a single thing. And isn't giving one marble-mouthed guy the power to gum up the entire government of the United States of America all by himself exactly what the Founding Fathers envisioned? Trumpism lives on. The Dump wins, even when it loses.
Exactly what it says on the tin....my attempt at joining the 'Twitterati'. *

Sometimes on Flickr, you encounter fellow Flickrites who change your photographical life forever. Firs there was Rosie and Aaron. Then David stumbled over my stream which pretty much got me all excited about photography, because I was actually being recongised by strangers. Then, whilst looking at my contact's recent uploads, I found this from tdub303. I had never encountered Darius Twin before, but soon after figured he was a big deal in light painting circles; anyone who's anyone in LPg knows of Darius Twin, I concluded. I probably wasn't thinking very straight at 0100 01.04.09 when I decided, mid-brainwave, to paint this. Who knows if young Darius will stumble across it. Hopefully he will. If he commnts, it'll probably be a better day than when Rosie commented on this light painting. No offence to Rosie, we're mutually following one another on Twitter.
I want a tee for this. Syke.
On a different note, I encountered a completely, un-ENT, patient today. We had some oncology kids on our ward because their ward was closed. They are amazing. Absolutely loved them. Fun loving, awesome, brilliant, wonderful. I can say a lot but two main words come to mind: persisitence and courage.

As an aside... Excluding the Twitterati, only one (count them! I knoe you won't!) person commented on my suddenly short hair. If I'm insulted, does that make me a girl?
S-sorry I'm such a girl...

Tomorrow's International Blood Donor's Day. Today the Flemish Red Cross had organised a Donor's Day. We made a site of our own, where bloggers and twitterati could enlist. First we had lunch (or twunch) and then off to the centre! Unfortunately I wasn't allowed to give blood so I took pictures. All in all a grand day out.
I wasn't allowed to give blood because of low blood pressure (8/5 which seems to be freakishly low). *Sigh* As a consolation I had steak with a mushroom-pepper sauce. It was scrumptious. I felt better already ;)
O yeah, check out the site we made so people would enroll today to give blood: De Bloedgroep
