Did you know the speed of light is different in different mediums? The light doesn't REALLY slow down, but it keeps getting captured by water molecules and re-emitted. So, it can take a long time to move through bouncing from molecule to molecule like a bride trying to get anywhere chatting with a slew of tipsy distant relatives. In water, light actually moves about 75% the normal speed of light because of this phenomenon. The more dense, the slower light goes.

It’s been called “the single most important case on and for American democracy since the nation’s founding”—and that’s from conservative Michael Luttig of the 4th Circuit.
What exactly was argued before SCOTUS yesterday, and how did it go? I take us on a high level view of the very dangerous Moore v. Harper case and cautiously make some predictions about how the Court will rule.

We do not get to choose where we are born, our culture or kin, or the condition of the world they brought us into. A true warrior lives honorably and seeks to better the world so those who come after us don't hate us for the choices we did get to make.

Love yourself. Sleep and hydrate. Build an army of robots to protect you. Watch in horror as they conquer the Earth. This is self care

Man, fuck ‘grind culture’ and everybody who glamorizes it.

People need to stop putting value on working so hard they destroy their brains, their bodies, and their relationships.

Just do what you have to do to enjoy what little time you have in this world.

Don't forget to use CWs when appropriate

CW stands for Country/Western, which is used if there is a substantial risk of losing your truck during a moment of extreme melancholy/heartbreak

So, that guy at the grocery store. Was he mad that he had to stay late? Was he mad at shoplifters? Or was he mad that I was trans?

I mean, it felt fairly focused at me, but I've worked enough customer service to know that sometimes people are angry and take it out on those nearby.

That's the nefarious thing about the current rhetoric of hate being thrown at transfolk. I don't pass. I know when people who don't know me don't like me.

It's when someone you DO know seems unhappy. And you can't tell if it's because they decided to believe the rhetoric, or they're just having a bad day. And now, my evening is full of worry, probably for no good reason.

Dude. I'm sorry you had a bad day. But unless I'm the problem, don't take it out on me or my groceries.

I remember years and years ago when a friend came to visit me and we were touring historic San Antonio, I was thinking of a possible series of history videos where the history was actually legit, but it was sprinkled with absurd compedy and the occasional false fact:

Santa Anna stayed at San Antonio's Spanish Governor's Palace, seen here next to the "Wireless Toyz" where Santa Anna topped up his minutes on his cell phone so he could stay in contact with General José de Urrea."

It was just a thought and long LONG before I even had a YouTube channel or even anything to record it that wasn't a 320x240 at 15fps mess of a video. But I love that someone has actually DONE it and made a series out of it: youtube.com/watch?v=uYNzqgU7na

No Wordle today. No NYTimes at all for 24 hours. My dad, who was in the News Guild as a journalist for AP taught me to NEVER cross a picket line. Solidarity forever!
