that’s right the internet started going irreversibly downhill the day Reader died

Technology you’re most nostalgic for: Google Reader
Especially when I was a writer and business journalist, but even afterwards, I loved Google Reader as a way to organize news articles and feel like I got through them. It was just a great interface. I use Feedly now, which is pretty good to read news, but doesn't quite hit like Google Reader used to hit.

on the one hand, fuck them on the other hand the supreme court explicitly signing off on Ballroom is actually a pretty good weapon to use when it's time to argue for court expansion, and does far less damage than most of their rulings

When I was learning Spanish, I was fascinated by "ojalá que" and wished I could use it more casually. If saying "inshallah" panics the reactionaries, all the better.

Kobo is running a promotion for their Kindle Unlimited competitor service Kobo Plus, from now through August 4 where you can get a 14-day free trial and then your first month after that is 99 cents- might be a good time to check it out if you've been wanting to! Unsure if this promo is US-only!

Anyone who thinks that this is somehow evidence of sentience really, really needs to be made to watch Desk Set (1957) and then write a thesis about how a nearly 70 yr old movie was able to predict them so well. As Janis Joplin said, "It's all the same fuckin' day, man."

The Democratic presidential debates need to have spring loaded traps underneath each candidate and any time one of them says "we need to move on" or "I'm focused on the future, not the past" they should be immediately launched through the roof of the auditorium.

1) The entire history of women's sport has been men trying to prevent it. 2) Homophobia and especially transphobia always, ALWAYS correlate with misogyny, and cis women who can't see that are turkeys voting for Christmas.

Congress has the power to do pretty much whatever it wants with the Supreme Court. It can expand the membership of the court, and it can punish it in several ways too. We simply need to fill that Congress with a Democratic majority that has the will to use that power.

Another day, another kippah. I got interested in doing these when I thought, "Yarmulkes are just the interesting crown parts of a hat. I bet some @woollywormhead.bsky.social designs would look amazing." Here's the top of "Accretion" in @dyemadyarns.bsky.social yarn. #menwhoknit #queerknitters

A skullcap with a knit design of stacked, inverted V's in dark red and dark brown.

A friend in chorus suggested I make yarmulkes for the outreach chorus when they perform in temple. I was noncommittal, but my interest is growing. Here is a pride kippah from stephengkrueger.com, knit with Anzula skeinettes, colorway "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." #menwhoknit #queerknitters

A kippah knit in wide rainbow stripes. (No orange stripe though. Weird.)

I can read both clefs. However... I was a tenor for most of my singing life. Now, rejoining Columbus Gay Men's Chorus after 20 years of not singing, I'm a baritone, and it's more of struggle that I expected to read the right staff.
