I loved the Girl With the Silver Eyes! I'm going to guess Wrinkle in Time was my first but I can't be sure. Ender's Game might have been the first 'adult' SF, or maybe Zenna Henderson, as I remember both from my parents' shelves. And then I worked my way through everything in the local library.

I think there’s a path that goes: poor artists do something because it’s cheap and it works for art (live in a converted warehouse with lots of open space), ‘cool’ people think it’s cool and copy them, ‘normal’ people want to be cool and copy the cool people, capitalism turns it out wholesale.

There’s always tricks with that stuff, like I think you put a comb headband thing in and then flip the hair back over it somehow?

Having used one for the first time this year, it was actually remarkably effective and almost as much fun as power washing, but ours plugs in. Raking our steps takes forever and the leaf blower was like, boom, done, they’re all in the yard and can moulder in peace.

In the US Biden created a BUNCH of new blue collar middle income manufacturing jobs and it got very little attention, whereas I have heard a lot about tech company layoffs, but that might be because I’m in tech.

I feel like this can’t be right because Canada, like the US, measures inflation with a consumer price index that does include food. But I can’t read the article because Google broke how advertising works so now quality journalism is only for people with money

The kind of pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine used now is actually less good at preventing disease but also less risky side effects. So now small uptick in pertussis every ten years when younger gens vaccines wear off. Good for us older people to get too, tetanus prevention is also nice.
