Quote of the Day
In a human sacrifice to deity there might be at least a mistaken and terrible beauty; in the rites of moneychangers, where greed, laziness, and envy were assumed to move all men’s acts, even the terrible became banal.
Ursula K. LeGuin, The Dispossessed
It’s going to be a day
Have I mentioned my shoulder has hurt for the last two months now? It’s a process my body seems to go through as it heals. I’ve gone through it before with my other shoulder. It’s fine now, no pain, complete range of motion. I’ll come out the other end with two shoulders in excellent working order. But keeping the faith in that knowledge is tough.
Today I have little energy, less motivation, and a shoulder that just won’t stop aching instead of its usual painful twinge when I use it. But I also have a tiny spark fo feeling that if I just keep trying to stick to my usual schedule, and don’t push but keep at it, I will get through today and tomorrow will be better.
So let’s try that.

- People acting like other people are people ftw
New Book Answers The Questions: Where Did Big Tech Go Wrong, And What Can We Do Next?
- This doesn’t sound like anything new, but maybe the framework presented in the book is interesting. The class sure sounds interesting….
