... Someone I know through one of my many nerd groups just announced that he lost his partner to suicide yesterday. I don't know him super well but he has always been kind. Just... If you're in a bad way emotionally, please tell someone. I promise there are people who love and care about you.

OH MY FUCKING GOD We are trying to get train tickets at the kiosk in Madrid. It doesn't track how many seats are available in each class. You have to enter all the passport data etc. MANUALLY instead of fucking scanning it and if there isn't enough space in the class you selected...

Oh no, somebody somehow got access to some private photos and it's trying to extort me. Whatever. I'm too old to care that other people learn that I have a sex life. I told my job it happened. My friends and family already know what I'm into. Like... Joke's on them for wasting their own time.

You don't get to tell people of color what is or isn't racist if you're not one. You don't get to tell women what is or isn't mysogynistic if you're not one. You don't get to tell Jews what is or is not antisemitic if you're not one. Why are only two of these statements non-controversial?

Folks have started to complain about the DHS shutdown and its effects on TSA workers. Here's something I want you all to understand. The TSA did not exist before 9/11. You know what we did? Airports and airlines hired their own security personnel. We could just go back to that.
