This is a delightful story by Clifford D. Simak presented on the Lost Sci-Fi podcast. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Perhaps you will, as well. :)

The shitgibbon keeps saying "mandate."
About 63% of eligible voters voted. A bit over half of those voted for shitgibbon over Harris.
Half of 63% is 31.5%
That is not a "mandate." It is the VAST minority. Just under 70% of the eligible voters did NOT vote for you.
Fuck off and die in agony.

Would any maga-types who might see this and be thinking, "but he said he wouldn't DO project 2025!" kindly let the rest of us know when it's OK to start screaming "WE TRIED TO TELL YOU" so that you're not overly triggered?
I'll be sitting here quietly (ha!) waiting.

This story was mentioned during an interview with @bogiperson.bsky.social (Bogi Takács) that I was listening to on the @strangehorizons.bsky.social (Strange Horizons) podcast. I looked it up because of the special effect...and was blown away. Y'all NEED to read this.

There's an ad that keeps running on various podcasts. It starts, "Are you still quoting 30-year-old movies? Have you said 'cool beans' in the last 90 days?"
My brother in TFSM, I am still quoting movies from the 80s and I do not see myself changing that any time in the foreseeable future. Cope. :)

As of last summer, we (humans) have pi calculated to over 202 trillion digits. That's ~202,112,290,000,000 digits.
The size of the universe can be calculated to within the width of a hydrogen atom using only ~40 digits of pi.
So...I guess, yay? *shrugs* :)

We bought Low Sodium V8 because neither of us really needs too much salt in our diet...and it's astounding how flat and slightly metallic V8 tastes to me without the usual high sodium level. Hopefully, I'll adapt. :)

I am stating here for the record: I HATE being sick. I HATE coughing. I HATE the muscle cramps. I HATE the alternatively completely stopped-up / completely free-flowing sinuses. I HATE the sore throat. I HATE the gritty, itchy eyes. I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE it all.
HAAAAAAAAAAAATE!
That is all.
