I was just typing something about the new Japanese movie All of a Sudden, and a little bubble popped up next to it saying "Concision: 'Suddenly' would be a better way to say this." If I could make the program that did this scream and beg for mercy, I would do it and sleep just fine tonight.

My bedroom now smells like a swimming pool. But I had a large wedge pillow that was smelling a bit of dirt from use, and I figured surface cleaning with a bleach spray was a good plan. It seems to have worked both on the dirt, and the smell, which will hopefully offgas🤷‍♀️

A few people have made the reasonable suggestion that we are living through the backlash to MeToo -- and yes, I do agree with that, at the same time as the backlash to BLM and the advances in gay rights. It's backlash all the way down.
