TPM is a treasure and punches way above its weight.

Friends of democracy should check it out. Frequent readers should become Prime members for about a buck a week for the first year.

Oh that sounds good. I wonder if this isn't a project for EWU's Office of Community Outreach?

@pedestrianman.bsky.social Concept: The STA hiking guide. A guide to all the great hikes and urban walks you can access with the bus.

I also like this trippy pink mid-century drinking fountain.

This guy. Love him.

Now I'm doing it.

I'm watching my wife give a packed talk about #Spokane drinking history and my favorite audience member is the guy who nods his head and takes a photo of each slide.

You haven't watched Letterkenny? You are on a wonderful journey.

From my writing handout for students: "You may use one exclamation point In your college career. You may not, however, use it in this class."

Just say no to exclamation points.

It's SUCH a great episode. There's the other plot where Kira, Garak, Damar and a dying Odo infiltrate a Dominion base. And then back on DS9 Bashir and O'Brien are laying a dangerous trap for Section 31 in a bid to save Odo's life.

How do the Klingons have an interstellar empire when any time that you disagree with your boss you can take their job if you just slice them up with a bat'leth? Seems impractical. #StarTrek #DS9

Tech Company: At long last, we have created the Torment Nexus from classic sci-fi novel Don't Create The Torment Nexus.

FOSS nerds: the Torment Nexus cannot be ethical until it is Open Source

Me: The one for 7 a.m.?! That is *violence*. I almost called HR!
