Catching up on @scalzi.com Starter Villain ahead of his arrival to our glorious hole in the wall, and laughing my ass off at the dolphins reading Das Kapital.

Every once in a while I have to explain to our international students how their university insurance works, and they stare at me terrified like I'm having a stroke, because words coming out of my mouth make no sense to a normal person.

Live your life in such a way that you never need to confess to unsafe elevation to your children, your attorney, your God, or USCPSC.

Behold a reporting gem from a local newspaper. Zoom in and pay attention to details because the author clearly didn't. I get it, you're too lazy to write but at least have someone proofread. #AbolishAI

Consumer Reports has a petition for fixing front-end blindspots: "We are calling on your company to address front-end blind zones in your SUVs and pickups to prevent drivers from unknowingly hitting people directly in front of them because of blind zones just past the hood."

I remember reading about face /appearance distortion contraptions in sci-fi books and thinking to myself "haha how creative, total surveillance will never happen". Well, I was wrong.

You gotta watch this for forbidden fight tricks.

I just had a Cybertruck drive past me and it rattled like a bag of rocks. Don't buy a vehicle that needs to be duct taped together.

A short novel told in the form of a newspaper delivered to your home for a year. Should be a fun experiment.

Y'ALL WE CAN GO TO THE BEACH!

I keep thinking about an international student from Iran I came across at the end of last year, shortly after the elections who was telling me "I keep telling people that we're about to be dragged into a war, that it will be disastrous and people are looking at me funny and say

Yellow-faced bumblebees (?) in their sleeping spots on our fence vegetation. These guys go to bed early, around 5 pm despite plenty of daylight still left of the day. They prefer bramble leaves the most for some reason, except that one dude who decided to camp on the jasmine plant instead.

Did this the moment I saw the first post about it. To all my healthcare colleagues - absolutely use your job as leverage. We were the first to get vaxxed because we work with sick and vulnerable people! Say so!

Me approaching my first proper weekend in three weeks of endless work.

Waited for several months in the library hold line to read Timothy Snyder's On Tyranny and didn't realize I requested a graphic novel instead of a regular book, and I'm glad I did because it's amazing. Highly recommend. Should have probably just bought a copy but I'm drowning in books.

Dear @pabatconservation.bsky.social, now that Bluesky implemented 3 minute videos, can we please have more munching bats?

Did some arts and crafts today because I love these pants so much and cannot part with them over a small hole. #craftsky is this even a tag? Idk.

Hey fellow Californians, Newsom’s office number is 916.445.2841, option 6 to speak to a representative. Tell them every kid deserves to play sports ffs. And while you're at it, save our oceans and ask him to expedite the SB 54 Plastic Pollution Prevention Act: bsky.app/profile/mont... #California

Forgot the number one rule of this place - don't engage, just block. Lesson learned.

Quote post with a picture you took in a National Park. Looking down into the Ubehebe Crater, Death Valley National Park. Little black ants on the gray trail are people.
