So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.

A big thank you to my social media followers for sponsoring this artillery piece in Kherson, Ukraine, with the help of @SignMyRocket@twitter.com. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1607420220729135104
Reflecting on the total disaster of a year that I spent trying to teach Middle School. Besides the self knowledge about my adolescent classroom management abilities, the main takeaway was the recipe for Rum Cake that I got from the Home Ec teacher after a particularly lovely staff Christmas lunch.
@ScottSoCal I haven't! I'll have to give it a look - maybe after I go through the 700 pages in this book that keeps giving.
Can finally reveal the #MontyPython project I was working on as a #ChristmasPresent

re: Hen Party
@bkm Have you ever seen The Gallery of Regrettable Food? He started posting pictures on a website, with descriptions. It turned into a book.

It's now 719 days since Donald Trump's Jan 6 terrorist attack. Not only has Trump not been charged with even one crime, he's now running for President where he's actively spewing more lies to delegitimize our democracy. Long past Time to INDICT TRUMP!
My humor is so subtle, you wonβt even know youβve laughed.
I complained that I look exactly like my father in our holiday photo this year, so hubs applied some filters. I do not actually look like an 80s hair-band member, and I'm pushing hard on 60.
Under Trump, Zelenskyy was extorted, weakened and made more vulnerable. Under Biden, he's been celebrated and supported
@EricaFriedman But did the Assyrian elders tell kids about their time walking to school, barefoot, in the snow, uphill both ways?
In response to someone whining about "kids today" on another site, I dug out this quote again:
"Our Earth is degenerate in these later days; there are signs that the world is speedily coming to an end; bribery and corruption are common; children no longer obey their parents; every man wants to write a book and the end of the world is evidently approaching.β
It's from an Assyrian clay tablet. circa 2800 B.C.E.
Humans don't change, only technology does.

Iβm an editor at Gannett. I manage 4 reporters and lead the investigative and data work at the Asbury Park Press in NJ.
This week, Iβm on mandatory furlough.
I appreciate the time with my family, but it is a truly horrid time of year to take away a portion of anyoneβs salary.
I make $70K a year. Iβm grateful for it. But Iβm a single dad with two kids. It hurts.
The employees of this company deserve better. At the very least, they deserve to be paid what the company agreed to pay them.
@Sundae_Gurl Ukraine wasn't standing there with their hands out, like the GQP.
Slava Ukraini. Heroyam Slava.
I know we all get it but our job is to warn others about how truly dangerous Ron DeSantis is to our democracy and our freedoms.

It has vegetables, fiber, eggs, dairy, and grains. It's a complete breakfast.
Ignore the nay-sayers.
To the folks in service jobs, public and private, working over the holidays, we see you and thank you for caring for our communities. ποΈ
Happy human holiday to one and all.
Even if you don't celebrate, have a fantastic day.
