When I first watched Torchwood, I was alarmed at how surveilled the UK was. As an American, this seemed to be a shocking lurch towards a police state. Now we are seeing our own right to privacy stripped away without our consent. If we don't have autonomy, we don't have freedom.

There seems to be a movement of employers being unnecessarily hard on workers.

I have one child and if my son did something like that I would tar and feather him.

Thanks for sharing that. Even though I'm a driver, I think protecting parking is not the move. We could do with more car free areas and the roads around the lake do not support anything but neighborhood traffic.

Now that #Oakland is putting bike lanes around Lake Merritt, can we get a continuous shuttle that picks up and drops off at Lake Merritt #BART? When you eliminate parking you have to create other ways to get to the lake and the shops. Not everyone can bike.

They would rather spend loads of money campaigning against a tax than be bound by law to pay their fair share in taxes to benefit we peasants.

It's wild that anyone takes these screeds seriously. How could she possibly know how her kids classmates are doing in school? I work at a college and I don't have access to student records, not even for assessment.

Also, the #Emmys need more categories. There should be a horror and a procedural genre. Get rid of gendered categories and just add more genres. Best season long story arc.

I'm rewatching #AlienEarth and am really distracted by what terrible scientists these folks are. No masks, hazmat gear. I'm begging scifi writers to create stories where critters circumvent competency. Who brings food into a biolab? Who neglects to secure enclosures? I love this show but come on.

Watching some of the coverage of Kong Harald's funeral and my heart goes out to Norway. I was fortunate to attend Universitetet I Oslo's International Summer School and Norway will always have a place in my heart. Oslo was so welcoming and friendly to me as I wandered around w/basic norsk skills.

I feel like Trader Joe's is taking this pumpkin thing too far. It's not special if it's in everything. And as much as I love O&H Bakery, kill that pumpkin kringle with fire. Disgusting. Please stick pecan or walnut kringle at TJ's instead.

It's time to have public conversations about what the law is/should be for. If it's not, at its heart, about fundamental protections to human life and dignity, what's the point? Time to pick up Foucault's "Truth and Juridical Forms" again, I guess.

Tech bros afa arguing with me about the statement Sam Altman made re: ai is going to be smarter than people. I asked what knowledge AI can create that wasn't based on what it got from humans? The # of bros who don't know what knowledge is and want to argue should be embarrassing.

It's my birthday in a few days and it's hard to believe so much time has passed.
A picture of a woman screaming at 28 years old and a picture of her calm at almost 53 years old. The caption says "28 and almost 53! Now my screaming is all on the inside. Lol"

Everyone has a hard line when it comes to who they will vote for and one of my biggest deal breakers is transphobia. If you want to hurt trans kids or oppress trans adults, you're not getting my vote.

Every white dude I've known who made Chomsky fandom their personality was an antisocial douche. I am very much against treating scholars of one subject as if they are the experts of another subject entirely. He's a linguist. We never hear about that work though.

Harald, the king of Norway, isn't doing well. The prognosis is dire. I generally find royalty to be a fascinating curiosity but this speech he made 9 years ago endeared me to him. It's so needed in a world driven more by xenophobia than in any recent decade. Norge er en. youtu.be/ShLacHMG6Q4?...

I first was mesmerized by Tim Curry when he played Rooster in "Annie." He and Carol Burnett were so great on screen together. Hats off to him for bringing Pennywise the Clown into living rooms all over America. I will never look at red balloons the same again. And Grim Reaper, get your act together.

Dolly Parton is one of those women who have just been a fact of my whole life. She was one of a kind and brought joy everywhere she went. I have been dreading the loss of some of these older women icons. Time to rewatch 9-5.

I started rewatching Chernobyl and I felt as if I could be watching our current government. The incompetence, cronyism, selling pleasant lies to the leader, cover ups, tossing citizens into the meat grinder to save face, being more concerned with position and the nation itself.
