@elysegrasso I finished Heir of the Bindings, very enjoyable read, thanks very much. Enjoyable world building and I really like the main character and his family. I will pre-order the next one as soon as you post that it is available for pre-order.

In this as in many things, if the rulers were at all capable, humanity would be locked in feudalism for ever. But they can’t raise their kids, they can’t learn science, and they can’t understand the true nature of humanity or society. So a little hint of a lightening of the curse of history here […]

My day job is in payments and this article is quite scary. https://mastodon.social/@galad/114170087659165417

Anyone find it funny how when the UK releases the Cass review to ban trans care, we get everything ranging from New York Times push notifs to op-eds in every major US paper...

Who doesn't love Tracy Chapman? 🎶 Talking about a revolution 🎵 (still have the vinyl)

Finally had a meeting with my research advisor with no major errors in my work, in fact no errors found at all. This weekend I get to try to apply the method I now understand to the case we don't already know the answer to. #maths this grad school thing does have its consolations.

When Trump says the US will take over the Gaza Strip, he’s imagining a “development” scenario in which Americans bear the costs, while he and his cronies reap the profits. The grift now includes dreams of ethnic cleanings. The Führer wants his thousand year golf courses and casinos.
