What a wonderful story Nathan Lane recently told about an old interview where Robin Williams saved him from being inadvertently outed by Oprah during an interview during their 'Birdcage' days.

Every time I talk about the stress and fear trans people in red states are living under a queer person from a blue state pops up to tell me it's just as bad in blue states. It hit me today while driving that they think I'm talking about the fear of being queer bashed. They don't realize red states are outlawing trans existence?
Status report. I'm seeing more masks. It had gotten to pretty much zero except for the pharmacy workers but today surprised me. Not "a lot" by a longshot but still noticable.
My theory: People have gotten sick (#Covid or #ABC/Anything But Covid) so often that they're tired of it
OR
Friends are sharing with each other the #LongCovid symptoms they're feeling because they've been sick so many times.
I don't really care the reason why, but I hope the trend continues.

Today I gave the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, @CinC_AFU, a box of matzah & wished him & all the brave defenders of ๐บ๐ฆ a happy Passover.
May we all be sitting around a table next year together, celebrating a free and united #Ukraine! ๐

@TheConversationUS @gbhnews We're hosting #Newstodon Friday tomorrow, let's make it a party! Refreshments on us!
All of my friends are rolling up to the party in their sexy Halloween costumes and Iโm floating in looking like Orko.
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.
