Toots are ephemeral, subject to deletion on a whim.

Born at 323 ppm. Living at the crossroads of the Butlerian Jihad and Idiocracy.

I've been terminally online for ~40 years, long before the big endless scroll. I've seen things some people wouldn't believe. 1200 baud modems on fire from Usenet flame wars. I watched c-news servers stutter at the mere mention of Kibo. All those moments will be lost in AI slop, like tears in rain. Time to deshittify.

Chipping away at reading a large book, third in its series. I both like the story lines and loath that itโ€™s so huge in page count. Itโ€™s taking forever. (The Naked God by Peter F. Hamilton)

Startfleet Academy - spoilers - episode 1 Starfleet Academy is most definitely a kids show. Well, for teens maybe?

No mention of remorse for blowing up the bad guy's ship in the first episode, cause that thing can't have been crewed only by the scavengers attempting to take the warp whatzits?

Let's just ignore that both the old and new StarFleet tend to be militaristic shoot-first-ask-questions-later and Public Relations filters to hide the wrinkled truth.

Do an uprising already. Time's a ticking. It won't get easier if you wait.

Where are all the second amendment people in the states? Oh right, they are cosplayers. They've all signed up to be ICE agents, right?

So, Starfleet Academy. I don't hate it. It has potential. It's no Strange New Worlds, or even Lower Decks, both I would like to have infinite seasons of.

Considering making a personalized goatse flyer and dropping thousands of copies on the white house lawn via weather balloon delivery or something.

Has anyone considered not sucking up to the orange goof, not showering him with unearned medals or gold bricks or whatever? Yo, U S A, fix your shit.

Just refilled the dogsโ€™ water bowl, filtered from the fridge. Which is funny because both will drink out of mud puddles if you donโ€™t watch out, and one likes to eat poop hot off the roller.

They always get icy fresh water inside though.

I'll note that there are various videos and articles available online on building homemade LRAD systems. Maybe someone could point one of those at the ICE 'officers' ?

Or, just get a shovel out of the shed and have at it. Makeshift pole arms FTW.

Saw the new Running Man last night. I don't understand how it was a box office bomb. Too much thinking required by the audience?

Got all the outside xmas decorations taken down and put away. Tree out to the alley for recycling later. It was a balmy and breezy +17C today in

Took the tree down today. It both dropped a lot of needles and also had a lot of new growth on the ends of all the branches. It had only stopped really drinking the water the past few days. It had been up about a month.

Just finished TRON: Ares. Pretty good, and love the throwback bits too.
