#Fallout fandom has been toxic since the dawn of time. Remember No Mutants Allowed grognards flipping out about Bethesda getting the franchise? Fandom, fandom never changes. www.pcgamer.com/games/fallou...

To the good gentle who just muttered about my hat being from the 1800s... It was created in the 1600s and had fallen out of favor by the 1800s. If you're going to gatekeep, at least get it right. Your sneakers didn't ruin my #Pennsic, I'm sorry my hat ruined yours.

The family learned how to sail this weekend, or at least putter around the local reservoir on sailing dinghies. Lots of fun with knots, rigging up the boats, the completely different terms for everything, and getting to know the local sailing club.

Positive news! My PSA levels are under 0.1, in the undetectable range. If you don't have a prostate anymore, this is the biomarker to indicate presence of prostate cancer in the body.

At its heart, Star Trek is a utopian fantasy about a society so advanced that they are capable of holding productive meetings that last no longer than three minutes
A TNG scene. We're in the Enterprise conference room, where Picard is holding a meeting with Data, Troi, and Dr Crusher. Barclay is also there, for unknown reasons. Maybe he wandered into the meeting and just sat down, and everyone was too polite to mention it. That happened to me once. I was visiting an office location I didn't normally go to and I wasn't quite sure which conference room I was supposed to be in. I walked into one and sat down and it took me five minutes to realize I was in the wrong meeting. From the perspective of the people in that room, halfway through that meeting, a stranger walked in, sat next to the boss, took notes for five minutes, then walked out without saying a word.
