I misread that as "German worship blasts Darth Vader anthem in heart of London," then realized how similarly spelled warship and worship are.

I've tried at various points to do dailies with different formats and such, but I'm apparently a boring person because I don't have much to write about on a daily basis. I don't like using Obsidian for really personal-ish stuff like journaling because it's all plain-text and I haven't bothered to encrypt everything. I do use it for taking notes or writing out notes on personal projects I'm working on or new concepts I come across or just general things I want to remember (things I wouldn't care if somebody stumbled across it). Daily sort of "What did I do this day" notes are kind of weird to me, since nothing of note happens most days and I'm not anticipating being called into court to recount what happened.
I picked up one thing from Nick Milo's Ideaverse starter vault (or Linking Your Thinking or whatever it's called now), it's the idea of "Efforts". It's essentially another way of saying "Projects", but maybe less formal and encapsulates anything and everything I might be working on, dealing with, or putting effort into. If I have to write a paper, brainstorm something, car maintenance, an ongoing responsibility, something needs repaired, I have a dream project, or whatever, I create an effort note and tag it as either Hot, Ongoing, Simmering, or Sleeping, depending on what's going on with it at the moment. Then I use Dataview tables to sort them on my home note.
Another weird thing that Conservatives want to do.
I could vaguely understand the allure of Trump the first time around (outside of the racist anti-immigrant stuff). There was actually something slightly refreshing in the first Primary debate he had against other Republicans that year (~2016), when he was still just a joke. He was saying things that politicians in general don't normally say, he wasn't following "the script". It only took him opening his mouth and his stupid policies after that though for that feeling to turn to disgust, but for a brief shining moment it seemed like he might've been a semi-positive influence that could've shaken up US politics for the better. Instead, he's just shown himself to be the absolute worst person possible for the position.
If anybody deserves to be locked up for being a clear and present danger to society, it's this guy. At the very least, he should be forbidden from using a phone, then locked up when he eventually breaks that rule because he thinks that none of the rules apply to him. The way he's treated, the government is basically encouraging that.
There actually is a thing called water intoxication where if you drink too much water, it can kill you. I only heard about it years ago when a lady, Jennifer Strange, died after doing a radio contest, “Hold your wee for a Wii” where she must’ve drank way too much water. Her husband later sued the radio station and won compensation. She drank two gallons of water in ~3 hours.
With each new revelation, Walz gets better and more relatable, while Vance gets creepier and weirder. It must be tough for the Republican strategists having to come up with attacks against Walz when this is the kind of material they have to work with.
Next thing they’re gonna say is drinking too much water can kill you… /s
Some people are just compulsive liars, they can’t help themselves. I was just talking to my friend, Elon Musk, the other day and he was telling about how he was planning to buy Disney and reboot Iron Man with himself as Tony Stark, and I said, “Musk, you’re a jackass, you’re already canonically in the MCU, you can’t also be Tony Stark. No one’s ever played more than two characters in the MCU, well they have, but those don’t count.”
“Doubts grow” implies that anybody believed it in the first place. I don’t doubt that the administration preferred a ceasefire, but Netanyahu has pretty much no incentive to even try for one. If anything, his motivation would be to keep stringing along the current administration and make the war as bloody and nasty as possible, since that will peal away support for Harris. If Trump wins, he doesn’t have to worry about getting nagged anymore, he may even get increased support from Trump and carte blanche to go all out.

Huh, so did Mexico ever pay for his "wall" that wasn't much of a wall, like he said they were going to? And how quickly did it take people to climb over Trump's supposedly unclimbable wall? 13 seconds.
