Today is the last day our most awesomest City Council rep will be in office - she & her wife-to-be bought a house that's 1 block outside our Ward, so she has to step down. I haz a sad. I hope her replacement is even half as good as she's been.

Whoever usually puts the Freak Zone up on Mixcloud every week hasn't done it for Sunday's episode yet, and this should not be affecting me as deeply as it is. (In related news, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD BBC, LET ME PAY YOU TO SUBSCRIBE TO BBC SOUNDS)

"A.i." is bullshit. "A.i." detection tools are bullshit. "A.i." in education is bullshit. "A.i." in the arts is bullshit. "A.i." in business and government is bullshit.

My theory: survival stories and true crime are actually photo negatives of each other, because in true crime, someone's dead who should be alive, and in survival, someone's alive who should be dead, and in both cases you're trying to figure out why
