There’s a petition to the Canadian Parliament to get the Government of Canada off Xitter: www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en... I think every Canadian who’s on Fedi or Bluesky should sign this now, no exceptions. If you have Canadian followers, please repost this or just post it yourself. This matters.

Feels wrong to heart/like a post about burning someone at the stake. "Repost" also sounds disrespectful, and "quote post" still carries some discomfort. But yes, Giordano Bruno was right, and died for it. It can and will happen again.

I was inundated with Led Zeppelin too much in undergraduate dorms to become an aficionado, but after "Becoming Led Zeppelin" I might become one. A sanitized view of history, but also a compelling story of the magical spark of collaboration and the fierce fight for artistic integrity. Inspiring.

Exciting news! We’re thrilled to announce that tapir Yuna gave birth to a rare and endangered Malayan tapir calf Sunday night. The newborn, covered in distinctive white spots and stripes resembling a fuzzy walking watermelon, is only the second tapir born in our 120-year history.

Few things on computers enrage me more than this. Tell me what's wrong and what I might do about it, don't act all cute and put your pinky to your lips. Be a professional for once.

You know what is, to me, a modern cathedral? A flagship science mission spacecraft. 100% hand built, utterly unique, labored on by thousands, made with precious materials, lodged in people’s hearts forever even if they never see it again, producing awe and inspiration.

Yup. Microsoft automatically switched me to the $99.99/year version with Spicy Autocomplete. You have to go all the way through "cancel subscription" to be presented these options and get the $69.99/year one you actually chose.

In 1922 Alfred Stieglitz made a series of photographs of cloudy skies, calling them Equivalents because they matched an emotion or mood he was feeling. This is my Equivalent for today.

RIP David Lynch. Here's my A+ review of Twin Peaks in the first issue of @ew.com.web.brid.gy (Gotta admit, rereading, I laffed at the line describing Kyle MacLachlan as "a young, demented Robert Vaughn.") ew.com/article/1990...
