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.

Music - Hot takes from an old lady
Listening to some music this morning, and I have the following (very timely) opinions to share:
If you like 80s synthpop, you should probably check out La Roux's debut album, La Roux. It's 80s synthpop made in the early 2000s with the benefit of hindsight being 20/20.
Folks need to stop hating on Steely Dan. Ok, if they're too cheugy for you or just not for you, that is totally fine. BUT they fucking rule, even though their lyrics are creepy.
When people ask if you're more of a Stones or Beatles person, there's always some rando who says they're more of The Who person . I'm the rando who says I'm more of The Kinks person. But oh my god, you don't get punk without them, IMHO.
If you have never looked into who "Daddy" in Kate Bush's Cloudbusting" refers to, brace yourself for a wild ride. W-I-L-D.
I cannot put any Duran Duran song any mix because I will invariably stop mid way through the song and just listen to Rio from start to finish.

Joe Biden is currently at the White House—being President
Oh. And Trump is in police custody for his upcoming arraignment
Happy Tuesday.

I was riffing with my roommates about robots — the idea of a self driving car leading us to a self-riding bike, a self-reading book, a self-touching field of grass — when I suddenly remembered this Perry Bible Fellowship collab that’s not really online anywhere. Enjoy.

I'm not clicking on any news stories about Donald Trump unless there's actual news, which is a surprisingly high bar.

The enemy of freedom must lose, that is why we ask the #USA for support - speech by the President of Ukraine at an online meeting with members of the #US National Association of Governors
Extract
The enemy of freedom must lose – quickly and surely where he came with a criminal and unprovoked war of aggression. That is why we ask the USA for support, for weapons and finances.

If I had something interesting to say right now, this is where it would be. But I don’t have anything interesting to say right now. Sorry for wasting your time. Carry on.

2023-02-28 to 2023-03-01 day 256/257 of doing art every day for a year (mostly – I took sick days off).
I’m not entirely happy with this, but I wasn’t making it any better, so I said enough and I’m calling it done. No doubt I’ll try this again. Later. Sometime.

So, do I pop champagne now or give it a few minutes to chill so I don't have to drink warm french piss?

Leslie Stahl did immeasurable damage, just like the media did with Trump. She should retire in shame. The drive to normalize batshit crazy white supremacists is unconscionable. But it never stops.

God bless Donald J. Trump's health. May his aged body stay strong enough that he lives to experience several more indictments, the guilty verdicts, and the orange jumpsuit.
