  1. My latest #frivolous purchses (see
    #ADHD) is this rather lovely Edwardian bread fork.

    It was made by Roberts and Dore of Sheffield and London and is stamped R&D S&L.

    I think it may be silver plated and has a pleasing weight to it.

    Lush. ☺️

  10. "Waste time on frivolous things!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

    --
    Futurist Jim Carroll is writing a series, The Art of the Infinite Pivot, based on 36 lessons from his 36 years as a solo entrepreneur, working as a nomadic worker in the global freelance economy. The series is unfolding here, and at pivot.jimcarroll.com.
    --

    Here's something you need to think about if you are considering a pivot in your career or business: the next big thing often starts looking like a toy.

    When big shifts happen, the world usually misses them because they look like hobbies.

    The Internet? People were hanging out on clunky "bulletin board systems" just to chat online. Most people looked away while a global, disruptive communications network was being born. Farmville? Critics see kids wasting time on a digital farm. The reality? Those kids are learning the real-time resource management skills needed to run the autonomous, 24-hour farms of the future. How about Minecraft? It looks like digital LEGOs, but a whole generation is learning how to develop sophisticated, interconnected infrastructure for the smart cities of tomorrow.

    Or take drones. What started as a "toy" in a park has become the foundation for a revolution in precision agriculture, building inspection, autonomous logistics, and the future of war. How about crypto "gamers"? A decade ago, they were "wasting" money on digital skins. Today, they are the architects of a decentralized finance system that is rewriting the rules of global banking.

    Then there are folks all around you playing with OpenClaw and other AI systems. Skeptics see people talking about 'relationships' with their agents, but the fact is, they are busy building one of the most powerful collaborative tools in human history.

    Need I go on?

    In every single case, frivolous, fringe activities emerged on the edges but exploded into the mainstream, resulting in massive disruption - and HUGE opportunities.

    That's why you need to know this simple fact: if you are doing a lot of frivolous things, you aren't wasting time; you are building expertise. You are learning the rules of a new game while everyone else is still playing by the old ones.

    But here's the thing: most corporate cultures are designed to kill this "wasted" time. They want efficiency, ROI, and measurable outcomes. But i, I’ve discovered that the most valuable pivots always start as "frivolous" experiments.

    If you only spend time on things that are "proven," you will only ever achieve what has already been done.

    Remember the lawsuit, where a federal judge ripped apart the #Trump admin's "evidence" that a woman was in Tren de Aragua?

    So, last week the Trump admin arrested her & her husband for a THIRD TIME — & now are saying they are going to use the #AlienEnemiesAct to deport them.

  42. Voting has begun in every state❗️
    💥because overseas and military voters receive their ballots at least 45 days before the presidential election. -- The election is in 40 days.

    Voters can be forgiven for not knowing this.

    News organizations are still running headlines about this and that #frivolous #GOP #lawsuit
    trying to 🧨change voting rules at the last minute.

    Their goal: generate #chaos and #uncertainty.
    News organizations comply.
    The latest lawsuit challenges Mississippi law that allows mailed ballots to be counted if they are postmarked by election day (November 5th) and received within five days of election day.
    The three judges hearing the appeal: all appointed by Donald Trump.

    Other efforts to block valid ballots focus on “#meaningless and #inconsequential paperwork errors” (Pennsylvania panel of state judges).

    These changes come with a cost
