    Saddlebags bursting with newly-tax-exempt cash, Paul Ryan rides off into the sunset. Or the 2019 GOP primaries. https://edition.cnn.com/2018/04/11/politics/paul-ryan-retirement-house-speaker/index.html #Trump loses another of the "adults" in the room, a right-wingnut so divorced from reality that he had to be schooled in functional finance by Alan Effing Greenspan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNCZHAQnfGU

    Spent a lovely afternoon on the balcony at @tregeagle's, the pub where everybody knows your name, because everybody is @tregeagle, supplementary tregeaglet H, and the dog who doesn't technically know your name, but thinks the way you say "Geroff! Shoo! Shoo!" is the most divinely intoxicating sound in the universe.

    @tregeagle Not only the face of #Coffs Harbour base hospital, but now NSW Health! Hold out for a percentage on t-shirt and action figure sales. That's where the real money is.

    @kat I was a member of the #IWW for over a decade. Ironically, I now #work 3-5 hours a day 3-5 days a week, but that is due to casualisation rather than the demise of capitalism.

    Eschewed sitting in the garden with #Radio4 this evening for listening to loud music (#Nirvana - @andyc would be proud) and playing silly games from my childhood. F**k you St. Paul and the Corinthians, I'll put away my childish things when I'm done playing with them, and not before! http://microblog.mjd.id.au/attachment/9898

    @tregeagle I've just finished my last rostered (if you call 24 hours notice rostered) shift for the week. If you've time maybe we should do a random inventory check of a local pub to make sure they're not dangerously overstocked with beer.

    Ah, lovely. The far too unfamiliar sound of evening rain, and I'm not due at #work till 2pm tomorrow. I am going to go to bed and sleep till my ears fall off through disuse.

    The problem is you can't insure the only the real uncertainties. It's like not being able to get a divorce lawyer if you didn't previously pay them up-front for the marriage. Time to bring back the Tredegar Medical Aid Society et al. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tredegar_Medical_Aid_Society

    Most of the things private health insurance is used for makes no sense as insurance. I know I'm going to see a GP fairly regularly, a dentist or optometrist somewhat less so, even if I don't know exactly when. Even individual uncertainties are collective actuarial near-certainties. What's the point in paying a risk premium on virtual certainties? Most health insurance that's actually claimed is effectively just a hideously expensive Christmas club. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_club

    As a kid I had a neighbour who played the bagpipes. That takes courage. Never try to learn an instrument you can't play quietly until you're fairly good at it. Hence the phrase "bold as brass" I suppose.

    @kat That's eerie. I kid you not: 6am this morning, name badge, sore head, clomping safety shoes, Huey Lewis. Have you hacked into the security system? Should I wave? Tell you what, I'll do the Kate & Cindy dance the next time Love Shack comes around, no charge.

    The digitally-piped #music at #work is all 25+ years old. I can quite happily shuffle along in my safety shoes to Come On Eileen (imagining myself in dungarees), but any more Phil Collins and I may go postal.

    There is a peculiar satisfaction to be had in successfully reeling in yards of chewed up tape with a biro, rather than giving up and snapping off a wad of C-90 to make a C-60-something.
