I made that joke earlier tonight and nobody laughed, but a congressman does it and suddenly it's hilarious. So. Unfair.

On mastodon they are talking about crocheting and sharing cat pictures and dressing in fox costumes at a rate far higher than in the general population. And they aren't miserable.

Now that the sun is coming up, it looks like the tree didn't snap, but it looks like it's just bent all the way over from the weight of the snow.

πŸ‘€The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics.

"It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Today I discussed James Jones's book of essays, WWII, and read a portion of one essay about Guadalcanal to my students. Later Zoom's automatic AI summary email service sent me the following summary of class. You weren't at the Battle of Garfudo, man. You don't know what it's like.
