I would really like it if the relationship of the crew and Liberator on #Blakes7 were more cargo cultish. It's really magical that they can operate this damn thing, and I wonder if the reason for that is ever revealed?
I'd love it if the ship had an agenda of its own.
Blake's got a *lot* of confidence in that ship, its ability to withstand abuse, and its fuel level, none of which have been established. Remember when stuff like this would be in a show and no character would comment on it? :-) #Blakes7
How does anyone have confidence in Blake's ability to command by the end of ep 2? He has no statutory authority. He's failed in multiple gambits. He's got competitors for leadership. I guess we're expected to believe that white male mediocrity conquers all. #Blakes7
The Liberator--the ship--in Blake's 7 has the most discoverable UX ever. #Blakes7
OK, so I started watching #Blakes7 more than 43 years late and, while it's interesting and entertaining, it's got its problems...
Question: does the burn ban in MultCo mean no use of enclosed (non propane) camp stoves in public parks? I want to make Bosnian coffee again on the OTO ride but not sure it's allowed.
Hope to see you at Odd Tuesday Outing tonight! We meet at Colonel Summers at 6PM, ride at 6:30PM. Tonight's end spot (Cully Park) should be a great spot to watch the sunset! #pedalpalooza
This Botticellis album is an underrated relic of the mid-aughts surf-pop-chillwave boom. It’s really great and I wish they hadn’t disappeared afterwards. thebotticellis.bandcamp.com/album/old-home…
While herd immunity to the virus could take 85%+, herd immunity to selfish jackassery probably can take root at 65 or 70%.

Can you imagine how 75% of the country is going to feel about 25% of our citizens holding us back? Not good, Bob! There will be an outpouring of frustration with the minority, and the tides of public opinion will turn. The minority will have to own their choice.

Was talking to some friends about the situation we’re in w/ COVID. 60% are at least partially vaccinated in the US. With FDA approval, I think that rises to 65%. When children are eligible, we get to 70%. Continued education, pressure, and organic progress? We're looking at 75%.
Are you redefining comfort during eternal Caturday?
One thing that sticks out to me here is adding staff to the compliance team. So often companies fail to fix cultural problems until they become compliance issues...
ahead of Activision Blizzard's investor call
🎉 So happy to have Jarret Raim on board as @MissionCloud CISO and Security Practice Leader! He's already upped our game. Can't wait to see the long-term impact he can have for Mission and our customers.
You know what would be great? A VESA mount for iPad Pro that connects to the iPad magnetically like the Magic Keyboard does.
Anyone know of such a thing?
I can’t believe in my whole season of being an evangelical I’d missed the John Piper “seashells” bit. Now I’m checking into it and I’m like: WTF is a preacher in front of thousands doing making fun of retirees collecting seashells? A (rant) thread. 1/ #TheRiseAndFallOfMarsHill
Fair Code: like open-source, but limits selling by unrelated 3rd parties. The world needs something like this, for some (not all, but important) situations. faircode.io @faircode_io
Activision Blizzard employees wrote a letter to executives yesterday to protest the company's hiring of union-busting firm WilmerHale. "WilmerHale’s pre-existing relationships with Activision Blizzard and its executives create an unacceptable conflict of interest," they said.
