He/him and happy to try to remember to use whatever your own pronouns are. Books, movies, comics, sci-fi, horror, mystery, art, whatever pops into my head. Just a dude seeking to abide. Colorado, USA.

Took a walk today and stopped in a veterans memorial park, where I snapped this pic of a life-sized statue honoring military service dogs. Good boys, all of them, I'm sure.

Woke up this morning with the Beatles song "Free As A Bird" running through my head. Figured it was just residue from something I'd been dreaming. Then I ran across this. Coincidence, or does my subconscious keep track of this type of thing?
12 December 1995:

The Beatles’ single Free As A Bird is released in the USA.

Paul McCartney: "That was really like working on a record with John, as Lennon/McCartney/Harrison, because we all chipped in a bit. George and I were vying for best lyric."

In my humble opinion as a Colorado citizen, this woman needs to stay right where she is for the next several years.
NEW: President Donald Trump says he is granting a pardon to Tina Peters, who was convicted on state charges related to tampering with Colorado's election systems. Legal experts say presidential pardons do not apply to state charges.

Great thread. Highly informative.
Yule ≠ Christmas

Yule is one of the oldest winter solstice festivals, with origins among the ancient Norse thousands of years ago.

Although today it’s heavily associated with, and even confused with, Christmas, the celebration existed long before Christianity. 🧵⬇️

This was the first song that a randomly shuffled playlist served up to me this morning... the universe's way of reminding me to remember John today.
It's not a secret that the David Bowie song "Fame" was co-written by John Lennon, but it sure does hit harder when you remember that.

I know I just posted this one a week and a half ago, but it feels appropriate to share it again today as Krampusnacht approaches. Be good, kiddies.

I'm so tired man.

I need you cis people to understand this. Rachel Levine did everything right. Legal name change. Legal sex update. So professional and accomplished she got SENATE APPROVAL as an open trans woman.

There's nothing we can do that they won't ignore to hurt us. So don't let them.

Even if she wasn't pepper sprayed (and I take anything a DHS spokesperson says these days with a grain of salt), ask yourself as a thought exercise: If an ICE agent discharged a firearm and hit someone he wasn't directly aiming at, shouldn't there still be some culpability?

My employer, Dartmouth College, today boasts it's 1st Ivy "to launch AI at an institutional scale." It is doing this by partnering--"more than a collaboration"--with Anthropic, a company that stole the books of many faculty, me included, which many of us are suing.
