Retired git on Colorado’s Front Range. I take photos of birds and critters and flowers and mountains and skies I was a failure at that other place. My only followers were apparently pornbots. Photos are my own. Jokes and memes, not so much. I will boost alt-texted photos.

I have an idea - let's try Trickle UP Economics - give all the money to the poorest of us. The rich will still end up with it but it will take longer.

I'm not saying that women are smarter than men but it's rather suspicious that there are so few known women serial killers and so many unsolved murders.

You're doing a conference in Florida?

You truly represent the apotheosis of "Agile".

For reals, yo.

You're cool with your 3,000 person venue where no one who isn't a cishet white salesperson/john man is welcome?

Jesus fucking Christ.

I was already estranged, I freely admit it, But this is beyond the pale.

Fuck the Agile fucking Alliance. They aren't what we wanted, they never have been.

Just a friendly reminder that if you store your government ID on your phone and find yourself in a situation where you have to show a cop your ID, you'll have to hand them your unlocked phone to do it.

If it’s not already it should be accessible on the lock screen, some kind of widget. The back of my phone is programmable ffs. 3 taps should show my id with no need to unlock the phone.

A lot of Bible stories could double as headlines.

Florida Man threatened to cut baby in half to stop 2 women from bickering.

Florida Man says 2 daughters got him drunk and forced him to impregnate them.

Florida Man says underage “wife” was impregnated by “God”.

We Remember: Prison Ship Martyrs' Monument

In wet, wooden bastilles in New York waters, more Americans died than in all the battles of the Revolutionary War combined. More than 8,000 Americans died in combat, more than 11,000 prisoners died but on ships anchored or, more often, aground in the East River.

David McCullough said "every American should visit here the same way every American should visit Arlington National Cemetery. It's sacred ground.”

Amid all the noise, a couple people have asked me if I sell prints.

I'm flattered that you might want one, but I'm not really equipped to do that right now.

However, almost all my online photos are available for download at full resolution on my Flickr page, under a CC-NC license, so you can have one made locally at a large format fine-art printer.

Personally, I use a Canon PRO-4100, and print mostly on Hahnemühle Photo Rag Baryta paper, usually with some black point correction.

I’ve printed a bunch of my photos and hung them around my house. I use an Epson 1430 photo printer, which uses 6 colors, so my setup is slightly cheaper than yours. The Epson branded inks are rated as archival quality, and they claim a 70-80 year lifetime for prints, which is longer than I’ll need to worry about. Some older prints I did in a darkroom about 12-15 years ago are already fading. I get mine framed at a Michael’s store.
