Content warning: spoilers in pics

I grabbed the second in the Midsolar Murders series, “Chaos Terminal,” because the first was pleasant and a space murder mystery seemed fun.
The editing was so poorly done that I had to keep re-reading entire sections, my mental image of a crime scene or interview blown up by it.
These images are spoilers, obviously. If you look…
1. Where is Reggie?
2. When does Mallory stand?
3. Is she talking *to* or *about* Parker?
And I only started taking pics at the end…

Reggie went back into the bathroom; Parker went to ask the bartender. Draughn stood with Amy, Max, and Reggie, then started moving around the room. Finding the body would look sudden and unintentional, he decided. He found the little closet.
"I don't think you have motive to kill me," Mallory said. "Although sometimes people kill when someone gets too close to the truth." She stood up and dropped Amy's hand. "Dammit. I had to talk to someone. And you're the only one who gets the a Parker thing." "I still can't believe you could think that one of your oldest friends could do that. I can't believe that you'd drop that bomb on Parker and then leave him alone." Mallory stood up, feeling a thousand years old. "These are reasons why I …
"Third, when the Cuckoos came to protect you, they left Amy alone and stung Draughn. I thought they left her alone because she was your sibling and an honorary member of the hive, but I don't think it had anything to do with her. Draughn was the murderer, and Parker thought he was in danger as well, so they swarmed to protect him, but they also attacked the person they thought was attacking one of their own. They've known all along who did it." "I still don't know-" Parker said.

The #NewYorkTimes has been and will continue to be a far-right-wing rag in a business suit.
Please stop giving them your money or your attention.

Attached: 1 image The fucking Times. It follows up yesterday's awful poll with another. That they even asked this question is evidence of the bias--the agenda--in their poll. Who made age an "issue"? The credulous Times falling into the right-wing's projection. This is not journalism. Shameful.

the capitialist paperclip maximizer recruitment funnel:
It isn't weird that it happens. It's weird how consistently it happens and how consistent the replies are despite coming from unrelated friends. None of them take my actual context into consideration. It's like we've all internalized an Amway recruitment script without realizing it.

@jalcine@todon.eu This reminds me of something that happens with my fellow friends in tech. I'm retired / burnt out from tech work. I'm bad with money but got paid well enough that our life has been fine. Min-max'ing financials hurts my soul. Ditto husband. We're living off Netflix stock options. Conventional wisdom says this is risky. Yes, but also, it's Netflix and we're living at the end of eternity so fuck conventional wisdow when following it drains my soul. Without fail, whenever I ment…

Feeling quite desperate to see this film. I hope it will be available in some form online, but O, to see it in IMAX format! #mosstodon #lichensubscribe #WortsUpDoc

Screenshot from birdsite of a tweet from author Robert MacFarlane. He has been to see Merlin Sheldrake's film called Fungi, Web of Life and is raving about it.

Wait. Magic isn't real? 😂
Seriously, did anyone really think this was some kind of AI or "disruptive tech"?
I've always suspected this was more Flinstones technology than modern innovation.
"Though it seemed completely automated, Just Walk Out relied on more than 1,000 people in India watching and labeling videos to ensure accurate checkouts. The cashiers were simply moved off-site, and they watched you as you shopped."

Screenshot of the cartoon The Flinstones. It shows Wilma looking into a hole, as viewed from inside the hole, which is a box like an old camera. We see a bird drawing her image.

Amazon Ditches 'Just Walk Out' Checkouts at Its Grocery Stores
Amazon Fresh is moving away from a feature of its grocery stores where customers could skip checkout altogether.

A rocky stream along the path to Mitchell Lake. October 2014

Photo. A small stretch of a mountain stream falling along the path to Mitchell Lake in the Indian Peaks Wilderness Area along the front range of the Rocky Mountains in northern Colorado. The stream bed is filled with rocks and the water is tumbling over them. There are trees on either side of the stream, and sunlight is dappling the leaves and ground on the left side of the image. October 2014.
