In the past I had no problems with spelling.
Either as a result of my 2013 stroke or old age, it would appear that I can no longer just see by looking how some words are spelt. It is as if my built-in spell-check no longer works as well as it did.

Why has the USA become laughing stock of the world?
Perhaps the reason is partly shown in this, seen on Facebook I think. Not sure where it originated.
If there are copyright issues let me know and I’ll remove it.
Iran has been viewed by many as an evil state, but there are better ways to deal with them.
In the past I have always found the people I have met in and from the USA to be kind and generous. The current situation saddens me.
Market crash coming?
Just like the dotcom bubble, lots are putting money into AI. In many ways those gambling on the stock markets are behaving as if we are living in a world without crises.
In reality, we have the Strait of Hormuz still blocked, the wars in Iran and Ukraine continuing, high fuel prices, higher than expected inflation, high interest rates etc. The world is in a mess.
All the signs are appearing that the markets are about to crash. Many of us (whether we know it or not) have money invested in the stock markets via pension funds. Many invest in the stock markets as individuals.
Wear your hard hats!

Please just shut up
Allegedly, the US secretary of state for peace made a speech at the ceremony celebrating D-Day criticising European immigration.
This is NOT the place.
During WW2 the USA 🇺🇸 was a reliable friend. Sadly this cannot be said anymore.
Sunday plans
Later I shall probably go on 6m 3W FT8 and 10m 200mW WSPR. At some point I may check if the Heathkit HW8 I bought works.
EVs with huge range?
Battery technology is improving year on year with CATL, China's biggest battery manufacturer, working towards batteries that would end "range anxiety" for ever.
