I don't even remember if I was goaded into writing a sonnet on real and reactive power, or if my brain just went SONNET TIME.

Yeah so NYT asked me ~2 yrs ago to write an op-ed about how the Colorado is running dry, & what we should do to keep this exact thing from happening. I said "There's only one real answer. Bill farmers by how much water they use. Duh." NYT editorial staff freaked tf out & cancelled the piece.

It was a d---ed plague upon the land.

"Sure. It's new. Kids today, with the processed food and vidya games."

I say this a lot: think about the stereotypical 1960 Army NCO. Really good at his job, didn't do well in school, smokes two packs a day, knows a bunch of tricks with beer bottle caps and lighters...

He and I are both losing our hair.

I have replaced everything I was going to write with "All my opinions are past their sell-by date. "

It has been suggested that between 1% and 10% of the ones in planning will actually be built. What is your opinion on that?

Why would any business in their right mind be paying a big four consultant for anything right now? You can save hundreds of thousands of $$ and just prompt Claude yourself. www.ft.com/content/7e14...

"The Republican nominee still lacks enthusiasm from these contributors, who financed ads in the primary repeatedly calling him a criminal and a womanizer." Surely a criminal is someone who commits a lot of crimes and doesn't reform! *checks notes* Oh.

Incredibly obvious Fauci take: There was a point when COVID was killing a 9/11 worth of Americans every day. That stopped for some reason.

Has he mentioned why he no longer lives in the sticks? I'm betting it's not just "tiny dating pool..."

Take #2: At one point last year or the year before, I was like "I should read more real literature" and looked down and I was currently reading about a blind Cyclops throwing rocks at Odysseus's boat.

O.O

I daren't zoom in to see what he's holding it with, but there's a serious danger of ending up with a coxless pair

I would pick it up in the bookstore and read a couple pages...

Dracula Sings!

I might sign up for Yuletide this year just to fervently request Odyssey fic that's a Chotiner interview of Odysseus.

Most of the chotiner traps are really pretty basic when you read them on the page. It's the delivery. It's gotta be.
