That part about not knowing who’s a US citizen by sight. *Womp womp* It’s a brown people harassment campaign

I can’t remember who posted about The Raven Scholar last week, but wow is it fun. The audiobook is particularly good. I find myself plotting some of those 1x a year chores for an excuse to listen.

Preface: I don’t like paying high prices anymore than the next person. Back in the ancient times, Nintendo64 AAA games like GoldenEye and StarFox cost ~ $70-80. In today’s $ that would be about $140-$160. In real terms, AAA games for Switch 2 are cheaper than ever.

Chicago, Seattle, Philly, NYC, and Northern Virginia (my not-city). Eyes on Rts 1 & 50

Census has sent us a second notice after I stopped filling out the survey.

Thought I’d take a break from the breathless phone calls to my electeds to determine if I’m ready to start the ribbing on my sweater. Almost there… Also, this 🧶… were it not so humid, I’d like to roll around in it. The paradox of goat hair. It should be scratchy, but lo it isn’t. 🧈 🐐 #knitsky

Greta is a multi-layered hero in our family. She has directly inspired my teen to speak up and show up + consider future work in sustainable communities. If you think Greta's only pulling stunts, you're missing the point entirely.

Meanwhile here in DC. 🤬

My dad (79yo) just sent me this photo. Walked into the sketchy Walmart near his house tonight and just got one. Gah. He prefers his homemade water-cooled PC so it’s possible he may send it to us.

Murderbot. and Mensah talking about how gullible humans are while LeeBeeBee is skulking around. That one is suss.

I don’t thing this is going to be one of those situations where the enemy of my enemy is my friend. I’d be rooting for mutual annihilation except I don’t think this spat matters to anything other than being the most unsatisfying schadenfreude.

Men are too emotional to lead

Had this whole plan for my weekend: homework sprints with Mario Kart World breaks. Not to be. I wish I could say this is the first Nintendo system disappointment. But I remember it took us a year to get hold of a super NES back in HS. Same with the Wii 20ish years ago. Plus ça change…

*womp womp* Walmart canceled our Switch 2 pre-order. CS says that CC co declined the charge, but CC co says no charge came through to decline. Walmart says: wait for an email while we "work the issue."

Really hating the questions in the Census American Community Survey. Like why are they asking about my "sex" and only having one choice? + With DOGE running amok, I don't want them to know anything about any of us.

Dinner discussion tonight: which Apple TV+ premium entertainment would #murderbot like to binge? Top spot: Shmigadoon Also in the running: Shrinks, Slow Horses, Stillwater, & Morning Show. Up for debate: Severance & Ted Lasso

We’re coming up on the 100th anniversary of the Scopes Trial. A reminder that conservative ideologues are always trying to press their views. Even though @aclu.org lost the case, the fact that I wasn’t taught “bible stuff” in Alabama in the 80s feels like a win. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scopes_...

Commentary on the pluses and minuses of archetype depictions in Murderbot are fascinating and really show how locked in ppl are with their particular POVs. I include myself here bc I read the books through the “parenting a teen lens” and I just see MB as a very surly teenager of any gender.

Homework for the summer: 2 papers, a talk + final project design/ethics approval And the last time I’ll get to snuggle under a blanket w/ my copious reading for awhile. Patt: Painting Honeycombs Yarn: Hazel Knits Lively DK Took 6 months inc airplane knitting to/fro Oz #knitsky #showmeyourknits

Must have Sanctuary Moon jumpsuit. #murderbot

So, uh, by this logic? … we just fuck it? Like do we need to pay for stuff anymore? Change out of our PJs? Bathe? What’s the point, Joni? What???

Starts researching cartography masters…
