Been on blue sky for a couple of days now. If you want to find a bunch of unthinking and easily offended authoritarians to block, just follow Popehat.

Relatedly, if the US had strong hate speech laws, how often do you think trans people, people of color, and anyone else not playing at @scalzi Lowest Difficulty Setting would be getting arrested for “acab” related offenses?

NBC: Scorching heat and Canada wildfires could be tied to ‘wavy, blocky’ jet stream: Some researchers think climate change is disrupting the jet stream's flow and causing it to bake regions in heat longer. https://www.nbcnews.com/science/environment/scorching-heat-canada-wildfires-tied-wavy-blocky-jet-stream-rcna91409

[GOT IT BACK!] Friends, I need help

, who I heavily depend on to run my marketing agency, suspended me without a reason (“suspected unauthorized login” is what they've said) on Thursday last week

I made a case immediately, crickets. Now a friend posted on my behalf on Twitter https://twitter.com/bellastone/status/1673406459701260298?s=20

And their support replied with this.

This is a huge impact to my business. So if any of you can bring more attention to that tweet or know anyone at LinkedIn... I'd appreciate your help.

I've been called on for jury duty, first time ever! I'll have to make sure they're OK with bathroom breaks every 30 minutes. Breaks for me to use my inhalers and take my meds. Then there's dietary requirements. Regular coughing fits. Sarcastic remarks when I get bored. And I might sit there saying guillotine over and over. Then the verdict. Did the police develop the evidence? I've seen their work. NOT GUILTY. I'll make a great juror don't ya think?

If you piss off the judge with antics you might, depending on the judge and venue, catch a contempt charge.

I regret to report that an opinion essay titled "Why I ordered 200 incandescent lightbulbs" is an actual piece on the Washington Post's site. In this ill-informed and pointless piece--among other problems, it shows no awareness that you can buy LED bulbs in any color you want, or even buy ones that change color on demand--Kathleen Parker seems determined to make her 2010 Pulitzer Prize look like a gigantic mistake.

Of course I'm not sharing the link, because I value your time.

@robpegoraro I saw that and was wondering if maybe no one had told her about Phillips Hue and other smart light bulbs.

I was once. Robbery and assault case. Somehow I was elected foreman. We reviewed all the evidence carefully before we sent him up the river.

What are your favorite TV series that are rewatchable?

@BlackAzizAnansi

Babylon 5.

Miami Vice is very rewatchable, and very of its time.

Two things happened in other timelines:

@blixco and I had a Billy Pilgrim cover band that was more successful than Billy Pilgrim.

...and...

@blixco, littlestar, and I were Concrete Blonde.

That's what you get when I'm running low on fucks to give about things and stuff.

Every once in a while on the W&OD I see a guy on a penny farthing. And he’s wearing full Cycle Guy garb. So it looks very odd.

Being extremely online when most of the voters aren’t will certainly work out well for the GOP and we should definitely encourage it.

Lensbaby makes lenses that do those things. Not too pricey, and a lot of fun to play with.
