A whole hour for lunch today, fortunately there's a great little Thai place nearby. 2013-06-06 Watching #TheHero. Interesting reality/competition concept, with physical AND ethical challenges. 2013-06-06 Waching the Hero, remembering the early saesons of Amazing Race.

Disturbing, shameful story of how 'temp agencies' exploit poor immigrants. Well done, @ProPublica http://t.co/mQEreyx0Uw 2013-04-30 @GeekFurious I was hoping for a full-on rescue attempt that involved big-ass bungies and an airbag suit. 2013-04-30 I admit that I laughed at the "bewildering array of hairstyles" montage, though. But the "countdown stopped at 2 seconds? ClichÃ©. #Castle 2013-04-30 @GeekFurious You'd get a bewildering array of hairstyles just in the super slomo alone. 2013-04-30 @GeekFurious It would've worked, too, if it weren't for those meddlesome montage editors. 2013-04-30 @GeekFurious Hoping the show hasn't jumped the shark, though last night's effort certainly vaulted the…

Machinima artist Drax has a new episode up in his “World Makers” interview series – I love the visuals he gets with his machinima, and the way he cuts it so that his avatar appears to be interacting with “normal” humans via Skype. Jo Yardley listens to Marlene Dietrich on a hand crank gramophone because she lives in Weimar era Germany and electricity is rather scarce: oh yes, although Frau Yardley lives in Amsterdam, her house is decorated with original furniture and accessories from the 1920ies and German magazines from the Interbellum Period are everywhere. This week he talks with…

Insurance season is almost over, thank Dog

Avoid health sharing plans, they're not that great a deal. A friend had one while getting some pretty serious treatment, and he struggled to get the care he needed.

Charm Patch Quilt: On Point

From Sew Can She - this looks like a great way to use up charm squares and scraps that can be at least 4 1/2-5 inches square. The contrast fabric and on-point arrangement add good visual interest without being too busy.

Tea Towel Hems

Bought some tea towels for gifts, looking for tutorials for adding colorful hanging cuffs after hemming.

I lean toward Method 1, mitred corners. Will decide once the towels arrive in case the selvage edges are good quality.

Sorry About The Mess: Trump Wrecking World Economy

Post: He’s nuts if he thinks manufacturers will move to the US; they like paying rock bottom non-union wages and they’ll pass the higher costs to American consumers. Lose-lose! What can possibly go wrong?

Since he lives in his own bubble universe, I’m wondering how long his big donors, the few relatively sane conservatives in Congress, and his “IKEA cabinet” will hold out until the murmurs behind the scenes become screaming fights in the Oval Office.

Spine of steel? Nope. Skull of rock.

Global economy rocked again as rates on imports to the US from dozens of trading partners rose further, with China hit by 104% tariffs

Now Listening: Joni Mitchell | Black Crow

Text:

”Black Crow - There's a crow flying Black and ragged Tree to tree He's black as the highway that's leading me Now he's diving down To pick up on something shiny I feel like that black crow Flying In a blue sky I took the ferry to the highway Then I drove to a pontoon plane I took a plane to a taxi And a taxi to a train I've been traveling so long How'm I ever gonna know my home When I see it again I'm like a black crow flying In a blue blue sky In search of love and music My whole life has been Illumination Corruption And diving diving diving diving Diving down to pick up on every shiny thing Just like that black crow flying In a blue sky I looked at the morning After being up all night I looked at my haggard face in the bathroom light I looked out the window And I I saw that ragged soul take flight I saw a back crow flying In a blue sky Oh I'm like a black crow flying In a blue sky”
