- a good day is one when most of the drama going down the timeline is that a handful of people are scandalized by the latest transgressions of Rurt Fapwurth, and another handful are mad about something Yapper Dinglewomp said. I don't know who Fapwurth or Dinglewomp are, this will all blow over

- Starfleet Academy so far has been (in my opinion and it's okay if we don't agree!) largely more crystal pepsi star trek. I got so nervous when they brought up Captain Sisko, but I appreciate that at least Sam's episode is asking big questions. That's the most Trek thing in this series yet

- And on that, there are very specific rules about what poll observers can and cannot do, and everything ICE does is forbidden. So, although it'd be a shitty battle, they'd be walking into a giant lawsuit trap for which the infrastructure to report violations and follow up on them already exists

- Reposted by chekov's engine lightUpdate: In the past week we've learned ICE has secured property to build human warehouses in Merrimack, NH and Williamsport, MD *as well as* Surprise, AZ; Upper Bern, PA; and Tremont, PA. Facts that bear repeating.
- Reposted by chekov's engine lightIf you try to be authentically yourself with everyone, it's hard to accept how well others can compartmentalize. To know that they are, like many abusive narcissists, inside a bulletproof prison of their own self-pity & self-regard. They count on & cultivate our inability to see their other selves.

- @birderk.bsky.social i've got juncos, chickadees, and cardinals looking for food but the ground's been covered in snow for a few weeks. What kind of bird food should I get for them? And is it okay to just scatter some on the ground each day? Should they have a proper feeder?

- Reposted by chekov's engine lightBut the efficiency doesn't stop there. Mass-produced whistles are all (generally) either injection molded or metal, and they're heavier and larger by a factor of 6x to 10x than a 3D printed whistle. 1000 of our whistles weigh 4.5 lbs and we can fit them in 9x9x6 box and ship priority cubic.
