I like cooking over fires, historical recipe research, the sociology of 18th century fashion and dislike serial commas.

Twenty minutes in to the audiobook of @vermontgmg.bsky.social The Devil Reached Toward the Sky and I've already cried because he said 30 minutes or fewer. May the Imaginary Sky People bless those who know the difference between fewer and less.

Obvious take: if you have time to worry about what's happening in other people's private lives you need more or better hobbies.

Q: What distinguishes a prison from a concentration camp?
This is beyond fucked up.
In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

Well. That was the quiet part very out loud.
Jessica: When I hear Republicans out there talking about their plan for education in America, I don't hear them talking about making sure disabled kids have access to a public education.

Got my first paper copy of The Onion. Fifteen year old boy child was very interested to read. Picked up. Dropped it. Couldn't figure out how newspapers worked. "These are so awkward. Why are they like this?"

Relistening to @quammen.bsky.social Spillover. These scientists who went and found hosts and intermediate hosts of Ebola and Marburg, Hendra and Nipa and Sars just had their units decimated by Pres. Musk. I can't wait until Ebola gets on a plane to the US and WHO says "sorry. You're on your own."
