TWO DAYS TO GO! Spent a good chunk of today testing out the dimensions of one of the rewards. Not the final design by any means—or materials—but I used Snow White Zombie Apocalypse #1 by @brentonlengel.bsky.social and @hanaroda.net for the fit check since it matched the vibe and I like it!

This is probably a really good time to remind everyone there are two special elections in Florida on April 1 for Congressional seats (and another in NY later in the year). If Dems win two of three, we take back the House. Make sure you're registered to vote!!

Brain genius Musk thinks he can just scan the database and delete entries labeled FRAUD
drewharwell.com Drew Harwell @drewharwell.com · Feb 13
The "large scale social deception" contract Musk is conspiracizing about was:

* first awarded under Trump
* paid to Reuters' data division, not the newsroom
* for researching *defenses* against deception
* not revealed by "DOGE investigations" and was a public record, visible online for many years
Elon: Reuters was paid millions of dollars by the US government for “large scale social deception”. That is literally what it says on the purchase order! They’re a total scam. Just wow.

Found this in the mail yesterday after seeing #DavidTennant wearing one. It captures how I feel about #TransRights and #CivilRights in general. Perfect timing after the absolute tire-fire of the #TrumpvBiden #debate. #transrightsarehumanrights #pride #pride2024 #pridemonth #lgbt #Whoovian #DrWho

My 11 month old's new favorite bedtime book is this signed copy of Blueberry Girl by @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com, illustrated by Charles Vess. We bought it at Books of Wonder in 2009, before my wife and I were even married, before our daughter was more than a distant wish.

Pulled off the highway on the way to visit family, and I think I may have walked right into @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com’s #AmericanGods, we have: a weird giant tree with a roof on it, a toy train museum, a shrine to #Osiris, and a McDonalds that gets nearly every order wrong. #NeilGaiman

Found my journal from my 2008 thur-hike of the #AppalachianTrail. Among memorized quotes by #Shakespeare & #Thoreau I (poorly) transcribed “Going Wodwo” by @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com—still one of my favorite poems & served as inspiration to keep my nerve while doing something so objectively insane.
It were as well to be educated in the shadow of a mountain as in more classic shade. Some will remember, no doubt, not only that they went to college, but that they went to the mountains. - Henry David Thoreau The poet's eye, in fine frenzy rolling, Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven. And as imagination bodies forth The forms of things unknown, the poet's pen Turns them to shapes, and gives to airy nothing A local habitation and a name. Shedding my shirt, my book, my coat, my life Leaving them, empty husks and fallen leaves Going in search of food and for a spring Of sweet water. I’ll find a tree as wide as ten far men Clear water rilling over its gray roots Berries I’ll find, and crabapples and nuts, And call it home. I’ll tell the wind my name, and no one else. True madness takes or leaves us in the wood halfway through all our lives. My skin will be my face now. I must be nuts. Sense left with shoes and house, my guts are cramped. I’ll stumble through the green back to my roots, and leaves and thorns and buds, and shiver… I’ll leave the way of words to walk the wood I’ll be the forest’s man, and greet the sun, And feel the silence blossom on my tongue like language.
