I am alive. One day I will cease to be so. In between, please feel free to interact. He/Him ,They/it should all work well. I lean left, but hopefully think correctly. With apologies to Dorothy Parker I cavil, quarrel, grumble, grouse. I ponder on the narrow house.
Expect nothing from the #stateoftheunion speech tonight. The President will make up poll results, percentages, and "facts" that suit his narrative. Expect truth to appear only by accident in a guest starring role.
I cancelled google music long ago, but it is still installed on my phone and kicks in to let me know of new song releases. Today I got just such a notice, but it started with a political ad for Thomas Massie starting in on transgender care. Irony is still funny because the algorithm is dumb. The song was a new release from Flamy Grant (https://www.flamygrant.com). I bet that ad has a pretty low conversion rate... #Massie #algorithm #Flamy #music

Watching a program about the "Gilded Age", and upon reflection I see more modern parallels in that companies we now see as ubiquitous monopolies in the future may be best known for copyright notices attached to their semi-charitable projects, frameworks, programming languages, fonts, tools they created and released freely to further various purposes, some positive, neutral, cynical. The future will always surprise. #art #programming #fonts #history
Look, there is a long history of saying that every accusation is an admission in the Trump administration.We he says "quiet piggy" to a reporter or calls a pageant contestant "Miss Piggy" it is clearly self- dissatisfaction with his slender 270lb frame, and an internal desire to stop talking before he says something self-incriminating. #quietpiggy #selfhatred
Unexpected benefits of #AdBlockers. When the first thing your site does is tell me that it will serve me NO content until I turn off the ad blocker, I can immediately work to determine if the content is unique or valuable enough to bother. If it is, I make accommodations to support your revenue model. If you seem to have no unique value, your site is probably not worth the trouble for me. Thank you for helping me see that quickly. Good luck in your endeavors.
