I miss my old Pentax ME Supers

Seeing things like this makes me wish there was a digital “film” canister that had a battery and MicroSD card and a full frame image sensor board that plus into it. You would be able to load it in any old SLR body and shoot digital full manual as film.

Land doesn’t vote.

We paid an illegal tax and now corporations are getting our money back.

How is this not theft and equally illegal as the tariffs in the first place?

Locally owned shops (not for better deals, but to support small businesses)

I pay for Kagi search.

What ads? My browser blocks ads. My vpn blocks ads. I pay for email so don’t see ads there. I pay for search so I don’t see ads there, either. I self host media. My TV doesn’t connect to the internet.

It is extremely clear that there are no all-powerful, all-knowing, benificent gods. They’re all lacking at least one of those things, if they exist at all. And then what is a “god”? It just becomes a semantics game and becomes pretty pointless to discuss.

When we were a young married couple decades ago, we’d check out movies from the library on VHS tape. One we loved was Topper. In the VHS transfer, there was a line from the protagonist giving “good advice” to another main character: “You haven’t lived until you’ve beat your wife.” In all earnestness.

That line was mysteriously missing from the DVD and all subsequent versions I’ve seen.

I think it is detrimental to society to whitewash shameful past behavior. We need to acknowledge it, remember how bad things have been, and respect the progress that has been made. It also helps us reflect on ways we might be acting now that could be viewed as horrific or backwards in the future. It helps drive continuing progress.
