We lost Dolly and Tim. Come on, universe, we know these things come in threes. Do us all a real solid on the next one, ok?

This is an excellent idea

There needs to be a dedicated Mutter tab where you grumble about something. Nobody can quote-post and replies are limited to that gif of Robert Redford nodding.

This piece suggests that there are fewer climate activists in 2026 than a few years ago because "they kind of won" which would be darkly funny if we weren't in a much, much worse position than we were a few years ago. The *repression* is why there's fewer.

We're still here, but many of us are doing different things because the things that made us visible will now land us in jail

Word that Bezos et al are buying 30% of LFC has me thinking maybe it's time to watch the Bundesliga instead.

Ha, my oldest is working at Taste of the Danforth and he just sent a pic of him hanging out with the mayor, Olivia Chow.

Got an email from Harvest this morning (SaaS app I use to track time for work) to let me know that under their new plan, my annual fee will go from around US$160 to US$1,160. A *thousand dollar* increase!!! Sure I can downgrade to my usual price point. But WTAF?!?!

Yesterday’s #Traveller summary: They bought a food truck. Installed a brig. Wandered out to get some rumours. The party doctor was asked to save a gunshot victim in the back of a sketchy bar but failed and the patient died. Don’t think my nephew expected to completely blow the task.

Yesterday’s #Traveller session discoveries: - My “improv from random tables” skills need work - My wife is far more interested in gear shopping and ship upgrades than anyone else (except me I love it) - Other players need more direction because they’re too used to quest markers Next time!

The cat is keeping me awake, which sucks. However, I have discovered that Tubi has “The Hilarious House of Frightenstein” which is pretty great. I remember that show from when I was, like, 6 years old. I thought they’d lost all the tapes!

Really not envying those attending the Portugal-Croatia game today. Wonder how long until summer sports become untenable…

My wife is poring through #Traveller forums for perspectives on what armour can be layered because she’s driven to protect her nephew’s character in-game. Also something about tranquilizer guns. #ttrpg

Paraguay! What a result! Always love a good underdog win. Strangely it seems the Netherlands might be the underdog against Morocco. That’s okay. Based on what I’ve seen tonight I’d rather Canada face the Dutch.

Tonight I discovered that Lawrence, Ferb’s dad in “Phineas and Ferb”, was voiced by none other than Riff Raff.
