HEM: "But you'll ruin that young man's life if you report him for sexual assault." ME: Correct. I'd prefer if he didn't get to become a Supreme Court Judge or run for President.

They lied during their Senate confirmation hearings. They should be impeached; lying constitutes perjury and/or high crimes and misdemeanors.

N.K. Jemisin is the first author to win the Hugo Award for Best Novel in 3 consecutive yrs for her Broken Earth series & first to win for all 3 novels in a trilogy. Recipient MacArthur Genius Grant, 2020. She was born #OTD in 1972. Happy Birthday @nkjemisin.bsky.social 🎈 #SciFi #Fantasy #BookSky
A montage portrait of science fiction author N.K. Jemisin. On the left, she appears in a close-up photo with long, dark braided hair, wearing earrings, a delicate necklace with a pendant, a deep maroon sweater, and a shimmering green scarf draped around her neck. She has a calm, confident expression and gazes directly at the camera against a softly blurred dark background. To the right are three stacked book covers of her works. Top: The Fifth Season (The Broken Earth trilogy), with a dark, textured design and metallic title. Middle: The Obelisk Gate, featuring an intricate, glowing red-and-purple circular mandala-like emblem. Bottom: The Stone Sky, showing a dramatic stormy sky with a massive floating obelisk.

The overall composition highlights the author alongside prominent covers from her award-winning Broken Earth series.

Ontario is still writing its rules for datacentres. But Ford's pitchdeck for foreign investors explicitly markets Hamilton’s waterfront for deregulated AI datacentre development, including "sovereign" AI opportunities." Sovereign AI. Built for foreign investors. With no rules. #HamOnt

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

Another lucky dip in former father-in-law's medical bag. This time I pulled out gauze saturated with paraffin - Nonad Tulle. It kept bandages from sticking to wounds, kept the area moist to aid healing, soothes burns, etc. These are tiny though. 2x2 inches, which makes me wonder what they were used for. Tiny burns, as from a cigarette? Healing bullet holes?

GARY OLDMAN as Cary Grant from ‘North By Northwest’ for a photo project whereby Actors posed for a role they always dreamt of playing. (It had to be self-deprecating, ironic, absurd, a bit twisted and kind of like a funny/bad dream take on the movie.) Love it.
