I am going to give a talk on the physics of punting (with an actual physicist) at CONvergence in Minneapolis in July that they already had to move out of a normal conference room to the big auditorium due to demand, and I highly doubt the NYT is going to send someone to cover it
what could your bluesky-con be about that could draw 200 people
“darthcon” would have dogs to pet and fried potato dishes to sample

i think that if i organized a “Bouiecon” where people got together and, i don’t know, talked breakfast cereals and the constitution, i could get more than 200 people to show up

Moved out of my place in one day, had about 15 guys show up with less than 24 hours notice. What a wild feeling. Love the support I have.

I made this poem back in 2019 and I post it almost every Valentine's Day. I'm a little miffed it hasn't gone viral
Roses are red,
Oysters are meaty,
They're aphrodisiacs.
Let's get freaky!

I love this time of year because people will post something super dramatic and vague like “Nooooooo” and I can’t tell if it’s about football or *gestures outside window* all of this.
