Should you dig back through my archives, please keep in mind that the further in the past a post was published, the more likely it is that the information has become outdated or my beliefs have changed. I sincerely believe that learning, growing, examining, and often changing beliefs is an integral part of being a responsible human being. My personal journey socially and politically has been ever leftwards, and there are many posts in the archives that I would not write the same way today, if at all. Thanks for understanding!

- 🎥 Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 I feel like I just watched two and a half hours of MidJourney AI images. ➡
- 🎥 The Marvels Not as bad as some have said, but not as good as either the Ms. Marvel series or the Captain Marvel film. ➡
- 2023
- The Enstickering After all, what's the point of keeping stickers in a drawer? ➡
- 2021
- 📚 9/2021: Failed State by Christopher Brown ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #PKDickAward nominee 2/6 Not quite as “we came far too close to this” as its predecessor, so a bit easier to get through. Has some interesting ideas for a post-ecological-collapse approach to legal liability. ➡

- Star Trek: Picard S01E05 Stardust City Rag Bjayzl, vajazzle, let's call the whole thing off.... ➡
- Be Angry, Elizabeth There is nothing wrong with women expressing anger. We’ve certainly given them enough reasons to do so. ➡
- Saint Expedite Fascinating story, and you know? It never hurts to keep things like this in mind when you're in need of a little extra assistance. ➡
- On This Day: Feb 20 Recognizing 20 years of blogging, here are my past posts from February 20 ➡
- Whidbey Island Getaway I played a bit with getting some abstract shots of the decay and geometries of the structures. Those shots, along with more representational shots, are up on Flickr. ➡

- Siddown, Bernie I have the advantage of being a straight cis white male, and thanks to those genetic/social happenstances, it's easier and safer for me to say this than it is for many other people who don't fall into one or more of those categories: take a seat, Bernie. ➡
- 2017
- Book seventeen of 2017: Firestorm, by L. A. Graf. 🌟🌟🌟 ➡

- Fire Destroys Students?!? Unfortunate fold placement for this issue of the campus paper. (The missing word is “Apartment”, and no one was harmed, just property.) ➡
- 2010
- Seagoth Survey Are you now, or have you ever been, involved with or considered yourself a part of the Seagoth (Seattle gothic) community? If so, please take a moment to help me out! Thank you very much! ➡

- 2004
- This bandwagon just keeps rollin’ on… Thank God for people like Gavin Newsom — people who decide that it's time to do the right thing, and do it. And congratulations to every single one of the more than 3,000 brand-new married, loving couples. It's been a long time coming. ➡
- Smoke and mirrors Related to the previous post, a new whitepaper from security consulting firm BoydForbes Security states that the nation's aviation security system is 'smoke and mirrors.' ➡
- Now boarding Osama bin Laden… Imagine if the world's most notorious fugitive, Osama bin Laden, attempted to board an airliner in the United States. Suppose he were clean-shaven, sporting short hair, wearing a pinstriped business suit and looked like so many other travelers that no suspicions were raised. How far might he get? ➡

- Cross-platform 2.0 Tom was good enough to send me two screenshots of my site that he took on his *nix box. Generally good results, but (sigh) not perfect. ➡
- MT Upgrade While I'm sure this matters to absolutely nobody except me, I thought I'd post a quick note to track the changes -- I've just upgraded Movable Type (the scripts that I use to run and manage my blog) to version 1.4. ➡
- Palindromania Need a cheap excuse to party? At 8:02pm tonight, if you use military time, it will be **20:02 20/02 2002**. This won't happen again until Dec. 12, 2112 at 12:12pm -- and won't happen again after that. ➡
