Usually I'm looking at what people are saying online about a game called 'Fallen London' so I get a lot of weird political posts and some Gerard Butler fans.
Now I'm also looking for posts about 'Mandrake' I'm getting a lot of Dr Strangelove.
On the whole, an improvement in the fabric of my day.

I wanted to share for folks who might have missed it: Arcane Arcade have just started a new Lancer Actual Play series:

It's well produced, takes place in the actual Lancer setting, and the first episode is an excellent onboarding to Lancer's gameplay and basic rules

Folks might not know a lot of people are getting *very* upset that the materials they request are not available in the libraries/archives they're requesting from.
We're getting lots here at the Library of Virginia: requests of documents likely surfaced by large language models that *do not exist*.

This is your casual reminder that executive orders are not laws.
EOs are directives meant to manage the operations of the federal government. Not state governments.
The states that even deign to acknowledge this are the ones who actively WANT to. No one's forcing them.

Had a dream that I saw Wake Up Dead Man and was delighted to discover that the film hinged completely on the antics of a troublemaking goose named Chrumbo. "That Chrumbo's gonna be a star," I said.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

It may sound radical, but if one guy has so much wealth and power that he can use the large newspaper he owns to publicly threaten to ruin a service we all rely on, presumably as a bargaining tactic to get lower rates, we probably need to tax that guy until he can't do that anymore.
Exclusive: Amazon has long been USPS’s top customer, providing over $6 billion in annual revenue in 2025.
But Amazon may give up its long-standing partnership with USPS to deliver packages itself, which could spell disaster for the mail agency.
