And to this day, when I'm walking down the sidewalk, I avoid stepping on the seams between sections. I set my stride so my feet always land on the solid surface.

I used to tell people I bitterly resented being promised flying cars and didn't get one, but one day I was walking around someone's backyard, having a video chat with someone 3 states away on my tablet, and I stopped and realized "Oh, yeah, this is the future. This, right here."

I don't think so. My life was much the same, in a small town in Utah. My haven was the public library, and I went where ever I wanted, and got books from every section (but lived in the Science Fiction section). It let me know there was a lot more out there than I ever saw in my little town, and gave me hope that I could be part of it.

Secret Service was in touch with the #OathKeepers. An agent described himself as β€œthe unofficial liaison to the Oath Keepers (inching towards official),” and called the fascist group "very pro-LEO and pro-Trump." Said they were defending Trumpers from violent leftists.

The #MAGA rot runs deep.

Yurii Hnatkevych has been a nationalist since he was a child. He used to dream that #Ukraine would become independent from the Soviet Union, but he never thought it would actually happen.

He especially did not believe that he would vote for it himself as a member of parliament.

β€œI didn't believe it. I'm honestly telling you. None of the deputies believed that they would vote for the Declaration of Independence, and then for Independence itself," he told The #Counteroffensive.

Me, earlier this week:
I really need to go outside and take a walk, but I'm in a meeting with the customer, talking about solder terminations on a populated PCB, and I'm the subject matter expert, so they'd notice if I slipped out.

But if they ask me to explain one more time about the difference between cold solder and disturbed solder, I think I'm going to scream.

I gave up over 83 million followers on Twitter to be on Mastodon full time. Yes, as I'm sure many of you have guessed by now, I am Lady Gaga.
