This song never fails to leave a smile on my face. Boris Blank said, "I had the idea of just this guy, a ... little monster sits there very relaxed and says, "Oh yeah, oh yeah"."
Yello's "Oh Yeah".

(Yello has told other variations of the origins of the song, but I like to imagine the little monster being very chill and being absorbed in the wonders of the universe.)

‘The changes, which will cut the electoral agency’s staff, diminish its autonomy and limit its ability to punish politicians for breaking electoral laws, are the most significant in a series of moves by the Mexican president to undermine the country’s fragile institutions — part of a pattern of challenges to democratic norms across the Western Hemisphere.’

‘On Wednesday at about 11 a.m., Mr. Moses fatally shot the 20-year-old “in a vehicle,” Sheriff Mina said.
Then, he noted, Mr. Moses returned to the site around 4 p.m.
At that time, the TV reporter and the photographer for News 13 were in a vehicle near the site of the first killing. Mr. Moses shot both of them, Sheriff Mina said.
Mr. Moses then walked into a brown house nearby and shot the 9-year-old girl and her mother, he said.’

Folks, you don't need custom, multi-homed Reids stores or exotic frameworks. Just make some HTML.

https://git-fork.com Fork app is a nice gui for git.
It has equivalents of `git add -p` and `git rebase -i origin/main`.
I use these all the time and nobody knows most of my commits are “asfdfdfkljkhljl”.

we saw some strange orange-ish lichen at the top of sulphur mountain in banff, and @phire had the presence of mind to suggest posting it to #lichensubscribe. last pic for view reference

- Orange patches on a grey rock face, with sheets of snow in the foreground and background (remote)
- More grey rock face with patches of orange... is it lichen? (remote)
- Rocks peek out of a sheet of snow, and one face is splattered with the orange patches. At the top of the frame is the bright blue sky, and a stone structure sits on the right edge of the image (remote)
- A valley in Banff surrounded by giant snow-capped mountains. There's a mountain boardwalk in the foreground and a river winding through the valley behind it. (remote)
