I hope you'll join me for this Friday's economic blackout.

If you're able, fill up your car and pick up some groceries today or tomorrow.

Limit / eliminate your purchases on Friday. No coffees or drinks or meals out.

Our economic choices can be an effective tool in combatting bigotry and greed.

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

What are folks using instead of Evernote? Alternately, is the exceedingly more expensive Professional tier actually worth ~$90 more than the Personal tier they're phasing out?

My kids used their electronic set to tune in to German EDM from the 90s.

Will I ever get to the point of working with IPEDS data where I don't have to repeatedly yell at my computer in order to find what I need?

What is the thing you are pedantic about while watching TV/movies?
My partner is HVAC guy, and when we’re watching movies and shows, he’ll watch someone walking through a house and he’ll quietly say things like “Honeywell thermostat.”

If one was in search of a possibly discontinued cereal, where should one look?

There's a safety drill at Small Kid's school today. It's also his bestie's birthday. Imagine you are 6 and just want to celebrate your birthday but first you have to be very quiet and hide just in case. I know this is a daily reality in lots of parts of the world, but it's very close to home today.

Who is the person who did all the grocery shopping and didn't buy me snacks? (It was me.)

I took a half day and saw Stop Making Sense at the Music Box and then drove home on Lakeshore listening to Talking Heads while the sun went down and just cried and cried.

I keep hoping to find that one magical contact on here who follows all of the people that I want to follow and it turns out maybe they don't exist?
