A big problem I have with notetaking: Even the best of notes disappear into the void. No matter where I write notebook or doc or app), eventually I’ll just forget about them. Has anyone figured out a solution?

After getting awarded the Medal of Honor, Maverick agreed to run Top Gun, taking Iceman's old job. But he hates not flying, so he decides to retire and sail around the world with Penny. But then he learns that pilots are getting replaced by AI piloted drones. After all, every plane shot down in Iran cost a hundred million dollars. Drones are cheaper, expendable, no lengthy training required. Dog fighting is going the way of the calvalry and the cannon ball, anyway. The Admiral tells Maverick that Top Gun is transitioning to drone pilot training--this will be the last class of recruits. They need him to use the new recruits to train the AI to replace them. They need Maverick to teach the machine everything he knows. But, in the final battle, the experimental AI drones will fail -- because they aren't human and will never, ever have the need for speed. Maverick will save the mission and also save Top Gun itself by proving that no machine can replace a human fighter pilot. He and Penny finally sail around the world -- but he does install an AI captain on the boat so he and Penny can relax. After all, he doesn't know anything about sailing. THE END

If David Goggins were a bird...
Anish Moonka@anishmoonka

Before it took off, the bird ate parts of its own liver, kidneys, and gut. That was the only way to be light enough to fly. Then it flew 8,425 miles from Alaska to Australia, in 11 days, without eating, drinking, or landing once. The bird is called B6. It's a bar-tailed godwit, four months old, weighing about as much as a can of beans. In October 2022, scientists at the US Geological Survey tracked its flight from Alaska all the way to Tasmania. The trip took 11 days and 1 hour. It is still the longest non-stop flight of any animal on Earth. For two weeks before takeoff, godwits eat until they almost double in weight. Fat ends up being 55% of their body, more than any bird ever measured. Then they shrink their own insides. About a quarter of their liver, kidneys, stomach, and intestines gets broken down and reused for fuel, making room for the extra fat and cutting weight. Their heart and wing muscles grow bigger at the same time. They never drink along the way. The water they need comes out of burning fat, the same reaction their muscles use for energy. They also never really sleep. B6 flapped its wings for 264 straight hours, cruising around 35 miles per hour with help from storm tailwinds. By the time it landed, it had lost almost half its body weight. The shrunken organs grew back over the following weeks. Scientists still cannot explain the navigation. B6 had never made this flight before. Adult godwits leave Alaska weeks earlier, so young birds fly alone with nobody to follow. How a four-month-old bird finds its way across 8,425 miles of open ocean to a place it has never seen is still an open question. About 100,000 bar-tailed godwits leave Alaska every fall. Most of them land in New Zealand or Australia 10 or 11 days later, having eaten parts of themselves to get there.

🪨 A powerful, lesser-known miracle from LDS Church history among the Shoshone people (and from one of my relatives!): In 1880, missionary Amos Wright (who spoke fluent Shoshone from childhood) was called by Elder Charles C. Rich to serve among the Eastern Shoshone on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming. His labors were incredibly fruitful — he baptized Chief Washakie and his family of 17, plus over 300 Shoshone total in just weeks, many in secret groups at night to avoid trouble. But the most extraordinary moment came on his lonely return journey through the mountains. Wright camped alone when he heard a horse neighing. He discovered a small campfire with three Shoshone braves. He joined them for the night — but soon fell violently ill, writhing in pain. He believed it might even be a divine judgment. The braves were alarmed: if he died, the white settlers would blame them. They searched the brush for remedies with no luck. One suggested prayer. Wright asked if any were members of the Church. One replied he was. Wright (still in agony) ordained him on the spot and asked for a blessing. The man laid his hands on Wright’s head and prayed. Relief came immediately. Wright then asked about the other two — they were also baptized members! He ordained them too. All three placed their hands on his head and gave him a blessing. Wright later wrote in his November 18, 1880 letter to President John Taylor: “The moment they took their Hands from my Head I happened to be Entirely well, but I would be afraid and ashamed to say that I was Healed in any Other way Only by the Power of God. And whether the sick were healed through my ministrations or not I think I was Healed through the ministrations of those 3 Indians.” A tender, reversal-of-roles miracle: the missionary who had brought the gospel to the Shoshone was healed by three new Native American brethren exercising priesthood power for the first time. Pure evidence that the Restoration belongs to all of God’s children — and that faith and authority work both ways. ✨ *image was a custom painting which my family owns.* Sources: history.churchofjesuschrist.org/chd/individual… familysearch.org/en/search/cata…

@KeenanPeachy Maverick is ordered by the Rapist-in-Chief to bomb a girls school in Tehran, because the Israelis have convinced Americans that Iranian school girls are all made of Uranium. Maverick bombs the girl school and flies back to the carrier and sleeps like a baby. Credits roll.

Latter-day Saints Should Put Down Roots Outside the Hub of Utah: Building Zion Where We Are: I have hesitated to write this, but I’m going to be bold. The reason I post so much about Wisconsin is because I want good members to move here. It’s a wonderful place and we need you here. Anyone who lives outside the intermountain west has experienced the same thing on a regular basis. Ask anyone, and they will tell you this has happened. A ward, always eager for more families in an area with few members, has one move in due to a job transfer. They are enthusiastically welcomed in and integrated into the ward. After a year or two, the family then moves back to Utah. The ward feels deflated and discouraged. This happens all the time. Another scenario also frequently happens in these wards. Again, ask anyone, and they will tell you this has happened as well. A well established family has a college-aged child who decides to go to school in Utah. They leave the ward to move to Utah, and then they meet someone from there, get married, and stay there. The native ward feels deflated and discouraged. The parents of that child then feel pulled to move to Utah to be closer to their children. This is not an anti-Utah post, but a plea to people to consider putting down multi-generational roots in other places, too. When these remote wards lose good families, they completely change the dynamic of the primary or youth programs. Marriage-aged members have fewer potential prospects and have no choice but to look towards Utah. These remote wards also lose out on experience that comes from multi-generational experience in the church. If every college-aged member in my area stayed here and had families here, and every family that moved here stayed, the size of our wards and stakes would easily be double what they are now, but sadly, the pull to Utah is often a net-negative to the growth here. Lastly, Utah is increasingly becoming unlivable. Now may be the time to move to other places. Our forebears were willing to go to new places to establish a new Zion. We should be willing to today.
