I hope this email finds you well and you haven't woken up to a pile of doggie scoots this morning.
New trackball day: Ploopy Classic. I like it but might end up flashing the firmware to change the button layout
I am upset at how much I have found myself enjoying the fancy "Fishwife"-branded canned fish. Tried the canned rainbow trout today for lunch and it was just lovely on some bread. The sardines are also excellent. Just mad they're so expensive, esp. when I remember good sardines as cheap food

Bill Nye:

"Friday’s splashdown of the Artemis II crew, the first to travel to the moon since the Apollo program ended in 1972, is a moment of celebration for all of us on Earth.

But it’s also an important reminder that, despite this success, the current administration’s OMB is proposing budget cuts that will all but dismantle much of NASA. It’s surprising, illogical and very troubling.

Science is not a luxury. It is a responsibility.

We cannot allow this."
