LOCAL: Can you spare a billion? Help me make it to the morning light. Go swimmin’ in the sabayon. Slow motion coup here and I’m out of popcorn.

DRONE: I pledged for a waterproof ‘follow-along” drone last August and the FCC needed to authenticate the drone to add it to the other HOVERAir models already sold in the US. One of their drones won a Time magazine “Product of the Year” award in 2025. So, I was patient. https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2025/7318494/hoverair-x1-promax/ 8K video, caged propellers, good UI and form factor, collision-avoidance…there is no stateside affordable analog. I could wait for quality. The HOVERAir AQUA is presently being shipped everywhere except the US. I honestly just wanted something that can handle fog and light rain. Pennsylvania weather is sometimes unpredictable, but my interest in turning landscape photos into oil paintings remains central to my activities. The drone would have been an asset in wet environments, especially if I needed a hands-free experience. Hoping the FCC goes 180 in light of recent suit brought by DJI.

SCIENCE: I miss the world before the Internet. This is just more bullshit.

Rant: The US is not investing in manufacturing, so we miss out on “production chain” value and “supply chain” value. Complementarities in trade boost the flow of goods and services. You like my wine, I like your cheese, let’s party. Profit. Manufacturing is an ecosystem. We miss out entirely in our pursuit of the elimination of variable costs in the Temple of the Number Go Up. I feel our generation is betrayed by corporate robber barons. Our “free trade” partnerships look like a beta zombie wide-shot roundup at the finale of a cut-rate Russ Myers apocalyptic biker flick where the undead overrun a town and the only ones who can stop it are called ‘greasers’ by the squares and whatnot. https://www.usitc.gov/publications/industry_econ_analysis_332/2025/recent_trends_us_services_trade_2025_annual_report …but we are going through a heavy protectionist period that destroys free trade arrangements when complementarity requires consideration of finite resources and environmental impact. Self-dealing weirdos, pedos and finks.

The Iran war just started and finished and is ongoing and is over. Is plan. Iran holds oil hostage. I need a jet and a $220 million ad campaign just to get out of bed these days. I miss the good ol’ days. Like 500 BC. Just me and a few goats and a potato flute, staying sunny. I own a chair and a cup and one outfit I made out of my neighbor. Easy.

Our position is devolution of equinamity in the name of profit. The top 1% own 99% of the wealth. We are in a precarious position, and peace is no longer an option if we are to satisfy the craven lunacy of the billionaire donor class with their megayachts, doomsday bunkers, and delicate pedo rape networks. Our president raped kids and is enriching himself through the office while his political party holds a trifecta of chokepoints in the government. Somehow one is expected to carry on business-as-usual. I simply hold up a mirror to show how we will be remembered. When good people do nothing evil proliferates. Evil has no boundaries.

Art: I continue to paint my way through this primitive world. The spellcheck on this site is getting dumber. Its tolerance of literary forms is eroding.i get distracted from the kleptocracy destroying the lives of my descendants. Anything that takes longer than a couple of minutes to absorb is difficult to monetize. Archimedes be like “spiral go yow-reyow-yow like that [twirls hand].” Shakespeare be like dead. Pictures of Will Sasso’s lemons are unavailable.
