Do not ask me to breathe, for I am out of breath. Do not ask me to hope, because America is hopeless. Do not ask me to dream, as I can no longer restfully sleep.

Over 70 million “Americans” hate the U.S.A. and another 15 million couldn’t be bothered to ensure its safety.

I am a human living in the landfill of North America.

In fact, if a building housing dozens of non-militant civilians is bombed by a government to get one militant target, that’s a war crime.

1,200 civilian deaths versus 11,000 is indefensible.

A government’s military might against the entire populace of a country/region because a small terrorist group is there is not both sideism. It’s just an excuse for the attacking government’s desire for genocide.

Uhm… this is in the last, church scene of 1989’s Batman.

Who is this? Is it who I think it is?

Just had an amazing call with a film graduate I taught when they were an 8th grader in my Broadcast Media course. It was my first year teaching, I wasn’t yet fully certified, and I took over the course in December.

He asked for advice on teaching and essentially I gave him this: “I’m not just there to teach—I’m there to learn.”

Watched first episode of Ahsoka. I love the character, even the others from SW:Rebels, but from the opening “crawl” alone, I’m immediately not invested.

In fact, the crawl told me the entire series is nothing more than filler; lacking any substance of consequence to the Star Wars Universe..

Because it’s based on the actions of characters (and who they are/their influence upon the New Republic) that are never mentioned, attributed to, or referenced in Episodes VII-IX.

As ironic as this is, I will not spend money on Pandora to be ad-free until they can show they are reaponsible with that money.

Their current ads are too frequent and the absolute worst in the industry; proving they care little for their listeners nor for the listening experience.

ME: The Earth is 71% water
SCIENTIST: Yes. True.
ME: And practically all of that water is uncarbonated
SCIENTIST: Okay, sure. Not sure where you're going with this but
ME: So the Earth is flat
SCIENTIST...
ME: ...
SCIENTIST: Listen here you little shit

My 13yo 3D printed the @simplebits ampersandwich for my birthday.

How cool is that?!

I wrote about #KOSA, the very bad internet censorship bill making its way through the Senate, and what you can do to help stop it. Please share/subscribe/etc. https://www.readtpa.com/p/congress-is-about-to-pass-a-very
Congress is About to Pass a Very Bad Internet Bill. Here's How You Can Stop It.

The misleadingly named Kids Online Safety Act will censor the internet, not protect kids.

The Present Age

After this late lunch, me and the fam will walk across the Roebling Suspension Bridge from Ohio to Kentucky (and back).

A cool little thing to be able to do, I think, for central Texas dwellers; traveling between two states, on foot.
