Try as they might, the Trump admin will never be able to extinguish the light of knowledge and pursuit of science

Amazon’s killing a feature that let you download and backup Kindle books It’s bad if you like to keep ebook backup copies.

hey for anyone who might want to actually own their kindle books instead of renting them, or who might be thinking of switching to kobo etc and will want to convert them to epubs, you now only have one week before amazon kills your ability to download its ebooks www.theverge.com/news/612898/...

This is an absolutely astonishing report.

DOGE did a complete takeover of CFPB’s systems at the root.

This is identical to worst case scenarios for the most devastating cyberattacks by foreign actors, only this is an *internal* threat

If you're doom scrolling like me, here--take a break.

It's true. I could kill for a sashimi bento these days.

Fish. All of it. The only sea meats I ate as a child were crab legs and shrimps/prawns.

So, business as usual.

(Joke's on them, no one's wanted to hire me for years!)

No one is coming to save us. We’ve got to be there for each other.

seems like a good time to try a new makeup technique

Well huh. Lots more people here now--I should say something...

Screenshot of Frogger-like game: Scabby the rat tries to dodge five lanes of cabs and buses to get to the New York Times building.

Did you know that @nytguildtech.bsky.social created a few strike-related games that you can play guilt-free while respecting the picket line?

For example, you can play Strikle! Or you can help Scabby cross 8th Avenue to the picket line guild-build.netlify.app

"Hats off" would be necessary with that hairstyle.

Happy Halloween! This year I'm a sloth. 🦥

Been happening a lot lately that Opportunity knocks while I'm not home.

...I knew it.

ZERO! I fear the wrath of the Storrow Gods without a sacrifice...

And even then, my enthusiasm tends to be expressed as if I'm in a blood cult.

Storrowing Season in Boston is probably the closest I get to acting like a rabid sports fan.

🎵 May your days be Storrowed and bright 🎶

For the first time since the start of the pandemic, I've been able to really concentrate on reading a book in text rather than having to stick to audiobooks. I'm very excited to be four years old again.

Oh good, this IS giving me the full Twitter experience: once again I have no idea what to post about because I have nothing interesting to say. New platform, same old existential crisis!

Oh man, finally off the waitlist! Okay okay, first post on the new platform, better make it count...
