 Americana and Country artists may no longer write songs about trains unless you’re actively sup... 
 @d974d86f I don't really listen to country but afaik the last song with a train in it was The Gambler. Didn't they move on to pickups after?

 @176ccc2b @134318c2 you can do all of using collaborative slides which has a lot more features, jamboard was quick for some things. But yes the ecosystem is troubling 
 Google is killing jam board in 2024.  Never used it myself but I suspect about a million schools ... 
 @134318c2 I've used jam boards in small (college) classes and it's nice for group work and discussions (in person or remote) - digital postit notes, but overall bit clunky. Won't miss it much really but I never had the hardware screen connection i know schools had. 
 *The Lost Cause* goes on sale on November 14th, and I'll be selling this audiobook I made everywh... 
 @b92dcc07 wow! Looking forward to this!! 
 It was interesting to see, but I wouldn't have taken the pic, until Kid1 said it had a very Batteries Not Included look

 @Deus I don't know about this and the probiotics. Eggshell color is somewhat different of course breed/genetics mostly - but there's enough supplements (probiotics or other 'natural substances') in feed to affect characteristics. Yolds here all have a yellow/orange hue (besides the flavor).
I'm sure they are fed a 'good' diets (not pumped up like factory farmed chicken in the US) - but even so, I'd be surprised if there wasn't some added beta carotene or other yolk color enhancing element here 
 Lazy late #Sunday #DasInKobe #Breakfast #AptCooking decadence! 
I can't get over these yolks in #Japan (I really want to know what they put in the feed!).
Partner goes for 2 eggs on toast, I finish up some leftover smoked tuna takaki (via Costco) that I chopped & doctored with #kewpie & chili oil (lao gan ma), topped w aonori & sesame seeds. 
😮 soda, sweet averse partner has fanta, as I decide to go with sake (I heard whispers that it goes well with seafood; it does!) - ok this is #brunch !

 はじめまして
I never really did an #introduction, just jumped in and never went back to Xitter.
A bit of an explanation now - I've transplanted to #Kobe #Japan from #Pittsburgh for my #ProfLife 4 month Fall sabbatical - with my family!
We #Homeschool our kids, so this worked out well (next yr Kid1 will head to college - last opportunity for this sort of adventure, so I snatched it).  Wish me luck! 
Thanks all who follow or just come across & boost - you mastofriends have all been gracious and kind! 🙏🏽
