In further #books news, I have just finished There Is No Antimemetics Division by @qntm.org in two sittings. Unsettling (in a good way), a teensy bit heartbreaking, extremely well paced, and I think I love Adam Quinn a little bit. And above all darn good Sci-Fi. Double recommended #booksky

Houston friends (Or people with friends in Houston): You should really buy your local bestie a Galentine's Bag. These amazing goodie-stuffed bags are not only a lovely "thinking of you", but they also fund mammograms for food and beverage workers. Total win-win.

As my mother's dementia progressed and she lost more of her words, swear words replaced nearly everything in her vocabulary. But one word that never showed up was the n-word. Nor any other slurs, actually. Because those things weren't in her. This man has always been a racist
Just want to say, I see all the comments saying it’s a sign of his senility or mental decline. You could be right but I have a thing about linking racism to mental acuity. Not sure it needs to be, most of the time, and I don’t like the idea of racism as deviant, for a lot of reasons.

It’s especially sweet when our ex-orphans give birth to girls. Elephants are a matriarchal species, which means that females form lifelong family units. When little Sia is all grown up and raising babies of her own, they will still be walking side by side.

Say, @rhi.bsky.social , this is a bit of a longshot, but...
Your dad did an interview with Bill Gates in the July 1995 edition of GQ magazine’s UK version. It's the one with the viral quote anticipating fake news.
Is the full text of that interview available outside of a physical back issue?
