Martin Tusler @mtusler.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Thank you for reminding me of that scene. It's one of those film moments when I thought, "No, they didn't!" 010

Martin Tusler @mtusler.bsky.social · 18/07/2026(2/2)One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.' John Rogers 220

Martin Tusler @mtusler.bsky.social · 12/05/2026The pitter-patter is unmistakably human. Variable sentence length, unusual word choices, and the final simile all point to a human creator. Thanks for sharing. 030
Martin Tusler @mtusler.bsky.social · 10/05/2026I went to an actuarial conference once. How do you tell an introvert actuary from an extrovert? The extrovert stares at your shoes when he talks to you; the introvert stares at his own shoes. 011

Martin Tusler @mtusler.bsky.social · 06/01/2026This is crucial for part time workers. Many states have no protections against short shifts and split shifts. Just because a restaurant only needs someone for an hour doesn't mean they should make someone come in for a one hour shift. 000

Martin Tusler @mtusler.bsky.social · 20/08/2025I'm surprised that methane is not discussed more. It stays in the atmosphere for less time than CO2 so if we can curtail emissions we should see faster progress. 120
Martin Tusler @mtusler.bsky.social · 20/08/20252/2 Our ability to reduce carbon emissions is better than the most optimistic projections and medicine has shown giant strides, not only mRNA vaccines but using antibodies to fight cancer that gave Carter years of life. I'm not saying we dented the patriarchy but, absent Trump I'd be optimistic 020

Martin Tusler @mtusler.bsky.social · 14/06/2025This is so important. The trap of "When YOU do this" is very appealing. Only when I recognize that I do this, and will probably keep doing it, do I begin to move on. 020
