Former bookseller and still there at heart. Probably some flavor of geek or nerd, depending on how you define the terms. He/him. Eclectic interests.

Why the hell are so many members of the media using soft language like "the changing legal landscape"? That's like covering 9/11 and headlining it as "the changing New York skyline."

If this were a Star Trek TOS episode, that bust would be issuing proclamations to the crowd before eventually being exposed as a secret computer.

i think we really need to normalise asking "what does sex look like for you?" instead of just making assumptions and going off vibes during hookups and stuff

It's possible that Belgium knows you exist but just can't decide whether to acknowledge it. Because, you know... Belgium waffles.

Sotomayor's dissent is chilling: "When [the president]...orders the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune."

"With fear for our democracy, I dissent," is about as bedrock and terrifying and vital a statement as you're going to get. That's a line you spraypaint on walls, that you ink into your skin. And it's chilling that it is necessary to say at all.

I think this is the same one that latched onto me briefly and was already nuked before I could block/report. These people ("people") are insidious.

Donald Trump spent years encouraging his followers to use violence to his benefit and the New York Times editorial board spent years not calling on him to step down.

Look, I submitted a blank ballot in the D primary in NYC as a protest against Biden. But I don't have the deluded sense that the party can replace him NOW and not tear itself apart and lose the election. I don't think the NYT is operating in good faith here. I think they want Trump to win.

Recently, I was peer reviewing a paper, and it cited one of my papers. Except... it wasn't anything I had written. The title sounds like something I'd write. It included coauthors I work with, and was in a journal I've published in. But it wasn't real. AI is not good for science.

Dear bots posing as sex workers on Bluesky: The actual sex workers here are lovely and know not to drop random "sexy" photos into a conversation thread with no relation to the discussion at hand. So when I see you do that, I'm just going to block you. So, yeah, don't do that, thank you.

Maybe it shocked them because it was in print and you should test that by going around and telling them right in their stupid faces.

25 June 1967:
The Beatles perform All You Need Is Love via satellite to 400 million people!
Ringo: "We were big enough to command an audience of that size, and it was for love. It was for love and bloody peace."

Interesting timing... That Zane Grey novel first came out in 1925 and was made into a film right away... but this strip predates a remake of the film that came out relatively soon after, in 1955.
