I've been off Twitter for about four days now, and I'm noticing there are things I really miss about it. I often used it for quick news updates (like today's Georgia runoff) as word-of-mouth tended to move faster than the news organization. It was whole lot less reliable, but if you were good at picking the signal out of the noise worked very well.
Also, I miss all the Star Trek roleplayers.
Glad to see Warnock get the seat. I would have liked one or two more Senate seats to get around either Manchin or Sinema, but a one-person blockade is easier to get around than a two person blockade.

* Trans men are men.
* Trans women are women.
* Non-binary people (enbies) are powerful beings, guarding this plane of existence from demonic forces beyond our comprehension, all in secret, without ever receiving praise.
Thank you, enbies

“What’s with the horse in the hat?”
“Oh, that’s not a horse. That’s Todd. He’s a centaur and an accomplished wizard”
“He isn’t”
“Well, he’s a half-centaur”
“And what’s the other half?”
“Centaur”
“What?
“His mother was a centaur and his father was a centaur. He’s actually a half-centaur half-centaur”
“Then…wouldn’t that make him a centaur?”
“As I said”
“Then why doesn’t he look like a centaur?”
“Well…genetics are a funny thing sometimes”
this whole "7 sick days" thing is so absolutely weird to me as a german. before I was on English language social media I just assumed that it was normal to have as many sick days as you need. when I got sick, I got some 600 paid sick days, and then got first unemployment and then disability pension. this is normal. 7 sick days! demand 365
You know what would be super cool, but also probably super expensive? Go back to the high-contrast original negative of TRON, before they did all the animation seperation, and recomposite the whole movie with actual CGI (there's CGI in the movie, but a lot of it is just cel animation).
I still love the original movie to death, but I wonder what that would look like. There's already a group who basically recreated the lightcycle sequence, and did it in under a day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2-yhFTCCzY
I've moved Mastodon Servers yet again. Thanks to a friend, I'm now hosted at the Drive In Saturday Mastodon instance, because I have also held the One Ring, for however short I had it.
