The election may be over but there is a strange comfort to the sound of geese arguing about borders at 5am.

Maybe the Hyundai garage will end the occupation of my lease soon.

Put my paper in the democracy box.
Not to change the world.
Just to put it on notice.

A man stands in a dimly lit kitchen, holding a large pot in one hand and thoughtfully stroking his chin with the other. A faint golden halo glows around his head, and a swirling galaxy appears in the background, giving the scene a surreal, cosmic feel. The dishwasher door is open, revealing clean dishes inside. At the manโ€™s feet sits a fluffy golden doodle, looking up with a calm, slightly puzzled expression. The overall painting style is warm, soft, and reminiscent of a classical oil painting.

I call this one: โ€œWashing dishes while realizing you are God and also still very bad at loading the dishwasher properly.โ€

 A traditional Chinese ink painting shows an elderly sage with a long beard and simple robe standing barefoot on a misty mountain path. He leans thoughtfully on a wooden staff, gazing at a futuristic, angular Cybertruck that disrupts the natural, rugged landscape. Behind them, steep mountain peaks fade into a soft, swirling fog under twisted pine trees, emphasizing the contrast between ancient wisdom and modern intrusion.

Laozi would shake his head and step silently into the mist, never to be seen again.

Not in anger.
Not in sadness.
Just in that quiet, tragic knowing:

โ€œThey choseโ€ฆ poorly.โ€

Gemini answers my question but two *words* are in Non-Latin alphabet characters.
Me: โ€œGeminiโ€ฆ what does that mean?โ€
Gemini (something like): โ€œOh that?โ€ฆthatโ€™s a word I just made upโ€.

This is not jarring.
Iโ€™m quite familiar with toddler logic.

On meditation:

Liberal plane wonโ€™t be โ€˜wrappedโ€™ in time for Carneyโ€™s inaugural flight In the mad dash toward a federal election, the Liberal party did not have enough time to get the campaign plane โ€œwrapped,โ€ reports correspondent Judy Trinh who's travelling with the Liberal campaign.

Tell me Carney has never experienced Rouge Economy without telling me.

I doubt he said, โ€œfind me a plane we can uncomfortably jam the entire party in toโ€
