Oldish. Pretty vanilla in color and flavor, but hopefully an ally? "Lentrohamsanin" from Metafilter, to give that contingent a marker. Michigandroid. He/him
Someone in our office is wearing enough cologne that they left a followable scent trail going down a hallway. For the first time in my life I know what a bloodhound feels like.
@Irick LOVED the whole Ancillary series.
Reading Ninefox Gambit. Can't tell if it's doing something really interesting and subversive with the tropes of military sci-fi, or if the genre has been innovating in the last 20 odd years while I haven't been reading it.
I can't decide if I lost my spark and became boring at some point, or just stopped pretending to be interesting and became more authentic. #conundrum

Oh nevermind, they do student interviews on Fridays. I forgot.
SANS Internet Stormcast, a daily security update podcast, just downloaded and it's 13 minutes today. Usually it's 5 to 7 minutes. I scared.
It was taking a long time to blow dry my hair this morning. Finally realized I had been done for a while, but was waiting for an automatic shut off to kick in. Hope that doesn't set the cognitive tone for the day.
A half of extra sleep equalled two hours of energy and activity this morning. Learn, brain, learn.
Sneezed while I had my headphones around my neck and think I bruised the soft tissue under my chin. It's a novel form of self-harm, I guess.
Zoviet France's "A Duck in a Tree" podcast is fabulous. Gorgeous weird soundscapes every week.
Ring modulate the tone of my life until it's distorted into something worth giving a damn about. Prepare me with shims and bolts and screws to fix the timbre of my personality. Feed me with impossible piano rolls until I can keep up. Unfix this shit.
it's rare that a Frank Zappa song gets stuck in my head anymore, but "Society Pages" has been playing in there for about two hours now.
Today: watched a bunch of Galaxy Express 999, worked out, made tamarind chutney, and played like a million hours of Torment: Tides of Numenera. Yin and yang y'all.
@saper I haven't, no. I'll look it up!
@saper they're able to read me pretty well, probably because I don't anonymize enough.
On DuckDuckGo it's Omaha Steaks, and then a bunch of terms related to the city. So confirmed: Google knows I like pervert comics and has tweaked my search results accordingly.
@saper that was third.
How well Google knows me can be judged by a search for "Omaha". First autocomplete is "steaks" (nope). Second autocomplete is "the Cat Dancer" (yup). The actual Nebraskan city wasn't anywhere in the list (also an accurate reflection of my interests).
I need to listen to the Internet Storm Center's short daily podcast about digital security more often. it's good to be horrified by an unfixed or unfixable vulnerability at least once per day.
