I enjoyed the live-action Cowboy Bebop. Loved the animated version. That cool jazz flavor. Nailed it.

#writing good day. Worked through the organization of the sequence I'm working on. Was going to go with a different sequence until finished the opening. It became clear that an elemet I was trying to obfuscate added a bit of exoticism and intrigue that the story needed to keep it moving forward.

Some cultures have produced vital advances; others remain dysfunctional and regressive. All cultures are now equal. Criticism and value judgments are forbidden. Yet this new dogma glosses over the fact that certain cultures and indeed subcultures . . . have produced wonders. Others have proven middling, and worse, regressive and harmful. We must resist the shallow temptation of a vacant and hollow pluralism. We, in America and more broadly the West, have for the past half century resisted defining national cultures in the name of inclusivity. But inclusion into what?

The manifesto makes a straightforward case that government and Silicon Valley power must be fused in order to defend Western values - which are superior to others - with hard rather than soft power. For many, this sounds like techno-fascism.

The First WORLD FENCING LEAGUE is happening April 25th!!! I'M GEEKING!!!

Japanese engineers developed this "Sword Tip Visualisation" tracking technology specifically for this event that will make it so much easier for the average person to see what's going on!

I MUST WATCH THIS ENTIRE TOURNAMENT

I actually like watching fencing. Never enough time in the day though. Such is life.

Lovely. Good job.

One of my first bosses was an elderly woman. Her husband had gone from being a robust hunter to needing a wheelchair and having to sleep in an iron lung at night. She had two small children and it was very hard.
One of my friend’s grandmothers needed a cane since childhood due to polio.

I have to admit that I was pretty sure the penalty for petty theft was severe. Had absolutely no idea that there was a law that made being Romani punishable by death! Wow! Horrifying.

They couldn't earn a living? What was the penalty for petty theft 1824?

Well said.

#politics I'm hearing about universal basic income. Unfortunately, we're living in a world where UBI would just be more money for landlords and health care providers to take. #MrBondsLicenseToRaiseRents

#politics are we confusing internet circus for actual progress? Is anyone demanding a roll back of the current regimes police state initiatives? Is this going to be a Dem issue or not?

I wish I were more optimistic but in politics silence can be more revealing that words.

Reminder that you can order pretty much any book you'd ever want via your local bookstore's online website — might be a buck or two more than Amazon, but well worth it to support local small business owners!

WTF 😡

#Writing came across. Of course the date has passed but the idea of an evening of Montenegrin literature persists. Have never read a Montenegrin author's work. Thinking an internet search is in order.

Hello writers and publicists, I'm programming for The Asian Writer @ 20 Festival. If you'd like to speak on a panel, host a session, or want to pitch your book for inclusion, please get in touch!

Maryland to Become First US State to Ban Surveillance Pricing That Charges More After Mining Personal Data Maryland will become the first US state to ban surveillance pricing in retail stores, after passing Protection from Predatory Pricing Act.

This is great news for Maryland. Surveillance pricing is just another way to gouge consumers and fatten the pockets of the greedy corporations.
I hope other states follow suit. In the meantime, don’t shop those places. Small business when you can.
