"What makes you special? Don't think too hard, just have fun with it."

Not a thing.
I like nature and lately Wrexham.

Internal calm is VERY hard to track down. Signposts are really required.

Dear self:
Don’t get so worked up over things you can’t change or people you can’t change.
It’s not worth the anger buildup or the heartache.
Control only what you can and let the rest go.

Newly hatched baby snapping turtles

Snapping turtle hatchlings are independent from the moment they emerge from their eggs, making their way to water without any parental care. Though tiny now, snapping turtles grow into powerful reptiles known for their strong bite

Everyone calls us a robotics company.
We are a stone company.

The robots exist because Britain no longer has the armies of carvers and stonemasons who built Blenheim, Castle Howard, and Westminster.

We are rebuilding that capacity.

@RedWavePress What does 'upgrade' mean here ? I'm hopeful it means added pollution abatement systems will be added.

"The technology changes. We do not."

[Ancient History Hub @AncientHistorry]

Around 1,950 years ago in Pompeii, a weaver named Successus fell in love with a barmaid named Iris.

She did not love him back.

We know this because his rival, a man named Severus, decided to humiliate him publicly. He grabbed something sharp and carved this into a wall for the whole city to read:

"Successus the weaver loves the innkeeper's slave girl named Iris. She does not care about him at all. But he begs her to have pity on him. His rival wrote this. Goodbye."

Imagine walking to work and seeing that with your name on it.

Successus found it. And instead of letting it go, he carved his reply directly underneath:

"Envious one, why do you get in the way? Yield to a man who is better looking and being treated very unfairly."

Severus came back one more time to end it:

"I have spoken. I have written. You love Iris, but she does not love you."

Then, in 79 AD, Vesuvius erupted and buried the wall, the tavern, and the entire argument under 20 feet of ash. The thread was frozen mid-beef for almost two millennia until archaeologists dug it up and translated it.

We will never know who got the girl. We do not even know if any of the three survived.

Pompeii has over 11,000 of these inscriptions. Bar reviews. Bragging. Bad poetry. A bakery wall that says "Welcome, hungry people." Two guys fighting over a girl in the comments.

The technology changes. We do not.

@jcburnett84 The proceeding scenes in this arc were even better. The cadenced run through the diplomatic area and the bazarre was great.

@EricLDaugh That is a TERRIBLE arrangement. As soon as Iran can sell Oil freely, it will immediately defy any and all terms it supposedly agreed to.
And that will be the end of thjat.

[Doug Figgins @Dougf43]

@FoxNews Iran will NEVER agree so I hope plan 'B' is drawn up and ready to go.
Plan 'B' was ALWAYS the only plan that could ever be successful in any tolerable time frame.
This is just delay because no-one has the will to do what is required.

[Doug Figgins @Dougf43]

@WallStreetApes If this is true, always an issue now, then I agree with the usual suspects' who for once seem to me to be right. WAY too many people and it absolutely will destroy the experience and the locales. The last thing you want in a National Park is wall to people.

There is a lot of lighting on nuclear icebreakers, because they simply have nowhere to put their energy.
Itis necessary to maintain a certain level of load on the reactor ⚛️
As a result, nuclear icebreakers become real lighthouses in the world of endless night

@Cernovich There is no deal. Trump didn't say that there was. He really said that ALL the other parties had agreed to the framework any deal must have.
Iran won't ever agree. Trump is just using his usual force-forward by default phrasing.

[Doug Figgins @Dougf43]

@EricLDaugh This is time wasting foolishness. Saying things such as this just makes people listening even more confused.
Iran will NEVER agree. Force is all that remains.
