The comet is coming.

Not very fly, even for a white guy
Astronauts report it feels good

I see your lips movin'
But what you talkin' 'bout?

Last month, Weber State University cancelled a conference *on censorship* after it became clear that all of the presenters (including me) would have to censor their material to comply with HB 261. I applaud your integrity and am here to commiserate—it’s a terrible law with terrible consequences.
