It's November 10th and (despite my other grievances w/ current events) it is now time to pour libations for the 29 souls lost aboard the Edmund Fitzgerald fifty years ago.
The days are grey and cold and Superior never gives up her dead.

Two solid weeks of COVID and at this point the only thing making each day worth getting through is getting to play Death Stranding 2

Figure out which milkweed is native to your area, and get some in the groud this spring. Water it, it'll be fine!

a cloture vote for the way-harder-to-undo-than-an-executive-order federal anti-trans sports ban is now set for monday. that means there's more time to make calls.
no on cloture means it doesn't get a vote. the GOP needs 7 dems to advance it.
please call. there is *so* much evil downstream of this.

I absolutely love this show.
Nice piece about Planetes (2003), currently streaming on Crunchyroll. Please read the manga and watch the anime. This is great sci-fi.
"Planetes treats its characters like real people, which makes their dilemmas feel relatable and recognizable. It's simply a sci-fi masterpiece."
As I said. 🤟
