Queer Trekkie Old Dude on a strange and difficult path.
Erklärbär.
I practice Buddhism because I'm terrible at it.
Autistic as a motherf***er.
I love humans, all of them, but humanity is a constant disappointment.

When all the sceptre'd crew
Have paid their Homage, due
The Guillotine
Let Freedom's flag advance
Till all the world, like France
O'er tyrants' graves shall dance
And PEACE begin.

The universe is inherently random, which means that when you apply human values to it, it is inherently unjust. We owe it to each other to try to balance the scales. This is something that the Democratic Party never comprehended, and certainly never cares about. A third way, or we're doomed.

Here's my most embarrassing secret: when I am sorting things alphabetically, I am always singing the Alphabet Song in my head. I can't stop it, and occasionally I sing it under my breath without knowing.
I am free now.

Still not accustomed to my new new physicality; how do you people deal with being *cold*? Being in the heat still sucks, but now the cold sucks too?!?
Off to smoke a pack of Pall Malls and eat six gallons of coffee ice cream.

Some well off or connected person should send us one of these Red Magic 11 Pros so we can own something really cool for a small business we hope to eventually open.
Also it looks so cool & could stand up to our clumsiness.

Sharing again. Anything y'all help me with is money I can save for January rent and not have to borrow later.
I added a calculator because my son and I are sharing mine and it's not convenient for either of us.
Please help if you can!

I increasingly think that Teen Vogue needs to replace the New York Times as our paper of record.
dissatisfied by the New York Times coverage of Zohran Mamdani?
great news! I talked to the guy Thursday about his campaign’s success at bringing community together beyond this election, and contextualized how it’s potentially shifted youth engagement with politics by simply listening @teenvogue.com

Zohran Mamdani's Establishment-Fighting Campaign Built Community for Young People
“What Mamdani has done is not only inspire and mobilize young people, but he has exposed the establishment and some of their calcified views of participation and inclusion.”

So far today this website has solved my annual calendar problem and provided me with a good hour of genuinely interesting discussion about science, perception, and the rewards of investigation as a process.

Hey folks, my wife was laid off unexpectedly. We depend on her income with my own.
We are crunching numbers, but it's grim.
Not sure how we'll make it through November, let alone think about December.
You can help here, but we understand everyone is struggling too. <3

I'm not a big "political funding" guy, but I am a big "defend free speech & peaceful protest" guy, so this feels important to share.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.
This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

I'm so glad that I don't have to care about the series this year, because people are being weirdly misogynist shits. More than usual, I mean.
My three tiers of caring about the series, descending:
1: The Pirates
2: The Phillies and the Rays
3: literally anyone playing against the f***ing Yankees
