pinned post!
Reintroduction time? Former grad student, gamer, composer, geek. I generally post about about Linux and video games. I desperately need to finish some music. (I used to use csound and LISP, but am teaching myself supercollider.) I think 12-tone equal temperament is boring.

Adults, are there methods you use to practice handwriting? After college, mine is really shit, and it's fallen off more, because I just don't write anything anymore.

The BTS fans I've encountered have been pretty cool. The blackpink ones, though were a bit off the charts. This one is so weird, I'm assuming it's rooted in reality. Retail managers can be batshit.

So I was fixated on fish tacos next week. Now? I'm thinking some sort of meatballs in a sauce in the crock pot that we can just reheat and dump over rice and nuked veggies.

One thing that bugs me about Andor is how competent the Empire is. Everything runs like a well-oiled machine across thousands of planets. Instead our fascism involves Taco Bell being the voice calling for food safety.

Yay. Assholes in a truck harass a woman on a bike for half a mile. These fuckers need to be prosecuted for attempted murder, because what else do you call menacing someone on a bike with a big truck?

If you're going to accuse a shadowy cabal of taking down someone, be sure to not implicate entire swaths of people by association, yeah? Good god, some of y'all never heard of the Protocols, and why it's bad, and it shows. This is why we need liberal arts education.

Just finished "the Verdict." I didn't know he had CSAM (tapes) in his possession. I keep asking myself if I would've let my hypothetical children spend the night, and...my answer is still "hell fucking no." If nothing else, because it feels like these kids were emotional support humans.
