Right before falling asleep last night, I saw that Terry Pratchett's Discworld books were on sale for 1.99 each, and would be so for the next 15 minutes. I bought a few. I woke up this morning to find it was more than a few. Way more. Great A'Tuin help me.

Per NASA, the odds of 2024 YR4 impacting Earth have gone from 3.1% on Tuesday down to 0.28% today. (It currently has a larger chance of hitting the Moon.) Let's create a society where such news is greeted with relief rather than disappointment, what do you say?

Washington Post is reporting that the US Gov't program to send free COVID tests to households will be shut down tonight, and the remaining tests destroyed. If you haven't already ordered yours in the latest batch (autumn 2024's) it's super quick & easy, price $0.00 covidtests.gov

Something something something Eagles? I don't know, I boycotted the damn thing.

Fun fact: if you took all the world's money, converted it to hundred dollar bills, and stacked them one on another on the surface of the Sun, they would reach all the way up to a planet whose global economy has just collapsed in a very bizarre way.

Fuck it. I'm a socialist now.

Has anyone ever seen Alan White, the drummer of Oasis, and Alan White, the drummer of Yes, together in the same room? Asking for a friend...

You found me!
