@cerasmith Nope, this is terrifying and I hate it.

Want to help Internet Archive's Digital Library of Amateur Radio & Communications? Are you in or around #Oakland, California? Are you available WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 30?

In 2015 #InternetArchive acquired a *massive* collection of manuals, rescued from the closing Manuals Plus in Maryland. The manuals were packed up and sent to San Francisco, awaiting for a day some or all of it would be digitized. That day has come.

We need help sorting the manuals, looking for the radio-related stuff.

I love the spell "Expeditious Retreat", because it's really just generic zoomy-time, but the wizard who came up with it could only imagine one possible reason to go fast, and that's to get the heck out of whatever entirely avoidable situation they stirred up.

Compare with a spell like Ashardalon's Stride, which is one thousand percent meant for running into the midst of your foes so that you can wreck everyone all at once. Definitely not invented by a wizard.

Once libraries are nonexistent any modern fascist movement wouldn't even have to burn books, but flick one switch and they'd be remotely deleted from your Amazon Kindle or similar digital “library”.

Capitalists are already building the infrastructure to do this through DRM, so stop believing tech is apolitical - the defunding of libraries and paywalling of information are all part of this.

@rrix You simply peel it most of the way off like a snake shucking its skin.

@rrix Monograments are absolutely fantastic. There's no reason not to! Patagonia makes some fantastic ones.

@[email protected] I love the history of this episode. It was initially meant to be mainly about sexuality but they went so hard that it ended up trans. Jonathan Frakes wanted Soren to be played by a man rather than a woman, but was overruled. What a great episode. I remember having so many ~~✨feelings✨~~ the first time I watched it.

@starchy Confirmation! Shower musings validated by real evidence! Thank you.

Did Shakespeare actually coin all the phrases we attribute to him, or was he just the first person to write down slang which was common among non-writers at the time?
