Today's literary accomplishment - have linked my Tolkien fanfic universe to my own alternate history (hereby dubbed the "Realityverse", after my chronologically earliest MAIN main character, one Ms. Reality Lens).

Note the layered malicious bullshit in the "51st state" vileness: Canada is, what, 8 provinces and 2 territories? Which should be 16-20 new Senators, most, if not all of which would by nature be Democrats. Hmmmm...

The most despicable, traitorous crime in US history is unfolding rightTF now.
Apparently this morning the CIA stopped sharing intelligence with Ukraine. We just stabbed them right in the back. Guessing a massive attack is imminent.
Whatever else happens, we will never live down this shame.

The reason I can't write: just realized that the parents of one of the main characters in my Tolkien fanfic epic-in-progress are actually Elvish versions of Dorothy Sayers' Peter and Harriet, which means I now have to incorporate *their* story, with all required badinage....instant overwhelm ensues.

Elon Musk’s 20-year-old staffers are not only demanding access to highly restricted information but are also displaying aggressive behavior—shouting at anyone who stands in their way, resorting to name-calling, throwing tantrums, and even hitting objects in anger.

From HCR, re the takeover of the fed pmt system:
"The system is due to undergo a migration to another system this weekend; how the changes will interact with that long-planned migration is unclear."
Everybody seeing that who has ever worked in/ with IT just screamed and shat themselves a little.

One of my favorite artists did another cool thing. I've listened to it over a dozen times now and I think it's very good. It would be awesome if you checked it out too.

The more I think about it, the more glad I am that Biden did the ERA thing. Yes, it probably won't fly, but that is not his fault, and it's a matter of leaving as little as possible on the table.
