I used to be cool and now I'm just...lukewarm.

If my improv group jorts! gets the most donations we are going to rename the rehearsal space at Strike theater "The Jarage". Please help us do this remarkably silly thing

I feel like the fact that my library has acquired 26 more copies of "They thought they were free" since I put it on hold February 8 is a good summary of how we're all feeling right now.

My flight that I'm on had to move around the SpaceX launch range, but we happened to be passing by Boca Chica right as it launched!

I was on the wrong side of the plane so I missed the launch and only got pictures of the plume, but still, how cool!
A porthole window in an airplane door showing the launch plume of a SpaceX rocket over the wing. A closer view of that plume over the wing. A view from an airplane window of the launch site. It's hard to see but there's clearly a big plume of smoke there. A closer up view of the launch plume set against the clear blue sky

Does anyone know why Google weather shows a current temperature that is lower than the listed low for the day?

I think this probably says more about the size of the subscriber base on YouTube Music than about my level of Taylor Swift fandom
A YouTube Music recap showing "My top artist: Taylor Swift: 36 hours, 163 songs" A YouTube Music recap image with a picture of Taylor Swift that reads "I was in the top 0.6% of Taylor Swift listeners I listened 24x as much as the average listener YouTube Music"

I have stayed up too late this week working on a collection of actual statistics about our improv group for our 10th anniversary show tonight.

I'm looking forward to this celebration tonight at Strike Theater (7:30 pm)

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #1,542,763!

It's not an achievement but that's when I managed to get an invite code from someone!
