I'm vaguely curious if Blanket ever got a name change. Blanket must be grown by now. I would have if that was my name. #RandomThoughts

For years I've heard the word "excelsior" attached to all sorts of grand declarations, municipalities, and even a Star Trek starship. Today I learned that the definition of this word is, " Slender, curved wood shavings used especially for packing." I'm a touch disappointed by that. #words #wordshavePower #definitions #randomthoughts

If older people are senior citizens. Does that mean everyone else is a junior citizen? Or are there sophomores and freshmen too? #RandomThoughts

one of the benefits of throwing all your computing devices into the sea and going to live in the forest is that you get to go live in the forest with zero computing devices #randomthoughts

I'm curious how pianos arrived at their current keyboard configuration. I wonder what the rationale was for it. #RandomThoughts

Is there a competency trap, where if you work too hard, try too hard to be good, you just end up getting used by evil imbeciles? Does making yourself useful only mean that you get used? #RandomThoughts #7habits

I'm not really into spectator sports, but here's my periodic reminder that I think we should get the Bears to move to Detroit so we could have Lions and Tigers and Bears here. 🤪 #OhMy #RandomThoughts

#randomthoughts... Dear England, further to hearing some of the thoughts from your new pre-- ordained PM, yes, devolved powers have there place, but the levers of that power will always remain within the establishment at No 10 Downing St. #westminster and the wider establishment "organisation/s" in and around #55TuftonSt... they will say you have Devolved Government... but you will never be allowed the levers of power... never... the end...

Macintosh computers literally are personal computers. It always seemed ridiculous to me that they for some reason defined themselves as not PCs. It reminds me of how people talk about man versus nature as if we are somehow not nature too. #RandomThoughts

If phasers (Trek) or laser cannons (Wars) are just coherent light intense enough to do damage, why can you see them in the vacuum of space? Wouldn't they be invisible until they hit something like dust, debris, or ships? #RandomThoughts

Another thing I never got about Star Trek… If the bridge has view screens but no actual windows, why put it on top of the saucer, in a vulnerable position? Why not locate deep within the core of the ship where it's arguably more protected? #RandomThoughts
