The thing people don't tell you about living through the peak of an empire is the horror of watching it unravel around you.
Don't get me wrong, the #EpsteinEmpire must fall, so that the world may live.
It's just a constant hypernormalization mindfuck. So, go easy on yourself & have that extra treat.
Then let's get to building a better alternative future.

I've written about electrical safety since the late 1980s: articles, columns, newsletters, books, slide decks. I'm updating Old Electrical Wiring, my first book, and seeking a new publisher. I'm also working on, and pitching, a broader lessons-learned, provisionally Safer Home Repair: do it yourself without killing yourself. My third book, Behind the Code: NEC History, I decided to stop adding to at ~450pp. It talks about the reasons behind U.S. wiring rules, and that's plenty.

#University #Libraries I'm psyched about access to the local university library. UMaryland-College Park has greatly reduced costs for geezers who apply to fill unclaimed seats.
Today I was able to find and legally download the full text of the 2009 English translation of Dialogues of Love, written by Abravanel, a.k.a. Leone Ebreo, in 1535. Here's Renaissance discourse,, admixed with a Sephardic perspective. Imagine meeting such a mind.
Later, I was able to determine that the answers I sought to make UL943's new threshold specifications safer might be had. (I just withdrew a proposal, not having the biomedical engineering savvy, nor access to source data, to intelligently harmonize conflicting numbers.) I learned of a 2025 article in Health Physics, which I'll look up Monday, if the university's libraries are open.
All this, and I'll sit down for my first-ever poetry class, with a highly engaged instructor.
Psyched!.
