I always see parents talking big in comments sections of news stories that are about injustices to other kids. βNobody better do that to my child!β
Yet, here we are as a country where the number 1 cause of death for children is gun violence, and I still see so many parents who are βnot politicalβ or quietly voting Republican.
All big talkers until the countryβs kids, including theirs, actually need their protection. All hypocrites and cowards.
This probably would have been better for #ThrowbackThursday but it's typical for me to be a day late. If you lived in #Atlanta in the 90's or 00's the #Roxy marquee may be in your memories?

Rainy night near #Norwalk #Connecticut at the old Peck Ledge #Lighthouse - this is based on a vintage daytime photo of how the #lighthouse looked when new.

If I could make $700 I can make this move without too many worries. I have items for sale in my shop. I have until the 31st and then I'll be homeless. Here is the link to my shop
A great work-week, which isn't what I've come to expect from work for the last few years.
There was a guy here, my boss's boss's boss. He was in over his head, didn't have a clue what we do or why, but wanted to make his mark. He thrashed around. Whatever bright, shiny thing caught his attention, that was the new Top Priority. Everyone drop everything and focus on this. He left Tuesday.
Today I got my paycheck, but for too much money. Accounting said no, that's right. I got a raise. A nice one.
During her swearing-in ceremony, Makenzie Lystrup took the oath on Carl Sagan's 'Pale Blue Dot' instead of the Bible. She has now become the first woman in NASA's history to become the director of Goddard Space Flight Center. #SomeGoodNews

If the facility was following the security guidelines they're supposed to, he wouldn't have been able to take hard copies, or taken pictures, or scanned, or downloaded anything.
Clearly, they weren't following protocol.
Feinstein has had her time, she was great, but now the orchestra is playing her off the stage and she needs to finish gracefully, before someone has to escort her out.
Sorry Nancy Pelosi, youβre wrong
Whatever legacy Dianne Feinstein had is now severely tarnished
From the hug-heard-round-the-world with Lindsey Graham, to her refusal to promote the younger generation and pass the torch
Dianne Feinstein needed to resign β¦YEARS ago
Whatβs your take? I would like to hear it.
@mmasnick Iβm calling for a total and complete shutdown of tech executives roaming free in San Francisco until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on.
@mmasnick I think we all know the correct policy here is an aggressive police response to the threat of violent tech crime: they need strict curfews, stop and frisk, and probably a tech focused police task force. This has to be full on broken windows policing. If you see a group of tech execs congregating anywhere they could potentially commit a crimeβstreet corners, bars, convention centers, conference roomsβthen you need to call the cops to come and break that up. We need to take this seriously, lest our cities be taken over by a wave of tech on tech crime.
@mmasnick so I guess the problem is that the city is not jailing enough tech execs
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.
