How has Shatner never covered "Wanted Dead or Alive"? You can hear his version in your head now, can't you? 😈

I've survived chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation for stage 2a #breastcancer. These aromatase inhibitors are just as bad as fellow survivors warned me they were.

I had four vaccinations yesterday, and am flat on my ass as a result, but I still look more alive than Mitch McConnell.

Now that chemo / surgeries / radiation are all done, the next task is Sudden Medical Menopause. My tumor was fueled by estrogen and progesterone, so I'm starting a medical cocktail in two weeks: Kisqali (anti-cancer) Anastrozole (anti-estrogen) Lupron (anti-estrogen) Gonna be a side-effect party.

@phdhurtbrain.bsky.social You win. I've finished chemo and radiation and now, facing what is likely a long recovery, have picked up Middlemarch.

I have an entire week coming up without a single doctor's appointment. I think that's a first since #cancer treatments started. If anyone needs me, I'll be asleep, probably in compression garments.

@domesticat.bsky.social had her last treatment for cancer today. It's complete, done, in the rear-view mirror. What this means in practical terms is the sun's still up but I got a nice little champagne buzz going.

so like lemme weigh in on this as someone who is more financially comfortable than many in my generational cohort: everything I have gained seems precarious and temporary because I know the people with real money will take it all from me the second they get an opportunity and no one will protect me.

Over the past six months, my mindset has shifted from "ugh I'll skip the ritual, thanks" to "either you give me a bell to ring at the end of chemo or I'm bringing in my own bell" Tomorrow is chemo bell day.

It’s absolutely incredible that one of the largest Japanese-run Go servers, which has been running since 1992, is still accessed entirely via Telnet. And while most players use GUI clients that use Telnet under the hood, you can still connect manually and get ASCII graphics streamed to you

Chemotherapy has pushed me to read constantly, voraciously. I will be cloistered for much of this year; this enforced quiet gives ample time to devour the stories that have been sitting on our shelves. Currently: Gene Wolfe.

@domesticat.bsky.social and I have spent the last several days making and freezing several batches of homemade chicken stock, so vaporized chicken has been filling the air. This little dude has been GRAVELY concerned that the air is made of meat. Perhaps he fears succumbing to Chicken Lung.

Concorde's first commercial flight was in 1976 and it was retired in 2003, or 27 years. Flight of the Conchords have been going since 1998 and are now in their 28th year. Flight of the Conchords has now lasted longer than the flights of the Concorde.

Shit got a little spicy down at the ICE building today. Street medics helped a lot of people, especially the children who were teargassed without warning. I'm just a dork with a helmet and shield, but I was able to help a little as well. #FuckICE
