Reminder that back in the late 80s when we were facing another recession, ABC hired the Muppets to help clearly explain important economic terms and concepts so people would be better prepared.

The Anti-Porn Crusade That Censored Steam and Itch.io Started 30 Years Ago Keywords and tags have never been a useful metric for distilling nuance. Pushing for regulations based on them is repeating a 30-year history of porn panic online.

So apparently whole-body tremors caused by POTS are a thing. I’m stuck with a really bad bout of them today (to the point where it’s fun trying to get up or walk around).

But of course, my brain couldn’t deal with this without a sense of humor, so guess what’s stuck in my head?

Screenshot from NYT op-ed. Text reads: Health care services have much in common with police and fire services. We turn to them when something has gone wrong, often unpredictably and catastrophically. Our society could decide that police and fire departments will not respond to calls made by individuals who worked less than 80 hours in the prior month, but most would find this repugnant and contrary to the purpose of these services. Likewise, refusing medical care to people in their time of need based on how much they happened to work the month before is a cruel and pointless policy.

Nurse: So how was the music? I know you didn’t get to listen to too many songs.

Me: It was good.

Nurse: Just out of curiosity, why’d you choose early 2000s music?

Me: I’ve been on a nostalgia kick recently.

Nurse: Nostalgia? But you were born in the 2000s?!

Torture is not only wrong, it is ineffective and impractical — gaining dubious information at enormous institutional and moral costs.

My poor printer thought that the heavy lifting was done after I’d printed the choir’s music for Holy Week.

Oh, printer. You sweet summer child. It’s capstone time.
