I wish either my father or my mother, or indeed both of them, as they were in duty both equally bound to it, had minded what they were about when they begot me;

@GraceSpelman clearly everyone was enamored of blues traveler four that came out the previous year

I am torn between being utterly heartbroken that this kind of bigotry exists in this country where people complain about an LGBT+ display at a library DURING PRIDE, and so very proud of the wonderful malicious compliance by the @ErieLibrary children’s librarians. 🌈

The worst part is that the inflammation from wildfire smoke and other factors potentially like increased time indoors, etc., make it more likely that COVID will kill you, per this study of deaths in 2020. https://t.co/uDGYxDx3LG

@whatsappbiz @WhatsApp i'm still unable to open the app or access my account. i'be reinstalled, installed on a different phone, etc, to no avail. do i have to just stop using whatsapp?

[sweths confabulate @booksweth]

@whatsappbiz as of this morning, the whatsapp business app crashes immediately every time i open it. tried on multiple (android) phones and get the same issue (once i get past installation and log in, on the alternate phones). is there a known issue today?

that thing where you file a legal brief that you asked another lawyer to help you with, and that other lawyer chatgpted it, and chatgpt straight up invented a bunch of citations with quotes to support your argument, and now the judge is pissed. https://t.co/StAw92I6Y1

there's finally a semi-official definition of long covid, and it looks like between 10% and 23% of people who get covid end up with it. https://t.co/6p6eRIZHLK

apparently the solution to multiple years of not being able to focus enough to read a book is to just rotate through 8 audiobooks, one chapter each, in series. #technicallyreadingagain

@theprhpenguin i hate this place too but i somehow can't leave. you made it better though!

@howardtayler if color is a flexible need though (or you are ok with hacks like painting the case, which i'd be leery of for fear of affecting performance), go with aranet.

[sweths confabulate @booksweth]

@howardtayler aranet is pricey but most accurate in my experience, but white only. inkbird meets most of your needs but burns through battery so probably not usable on a cane mount.

What Wikipedia did: we stood strong for our principles and fought to the Supreme Court of Turkey and won. This is what it means to treat freedom of expression as a principle rather than a slogan.

"IRREGARDLESS" HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE 1795. ITS INCLUSION IN THE DICTIONARY IS NOT A SIGN OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE FALLING TO PIECES, OR PROOF OF THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM FAILING, NOR IS IT THE WORK OF CURSED MILLENNIALS. IT JUST MEANS A LOT OF PEOPLE USE IT TO MEAN "REGARDLESS."

Better statement: "Kaitlyn had an impossible job, whiffed on some major points where she failed to follow up (namely infanticide) and tried to wrangle Trump, often without success. She allowed a victim of sexual assault to be disparaged and mocked by Trump and an unruly crowd. The entire thing was an embarrassment. We failed to serve our audience or bring clarity to complex issues facing Americans. We think it probably got good ratings tho, so.... bygones!"
