I have spent most of the time since Labor Day out across the country,
campaigning, knocking on doors, speaking at rallies ahead of the midterms.
I’ve been in upstate New York and eastern Pennsylvania, in northern Montana and the Central Valley of California, on the Kansas-Missouri line and southern Maine, in eastern Iowa and south-central Michigan, in Austin and in Dallas.
And I’ve been online more nights than not, helping with phone banks into every part of America.

Pay it Forward
Pay It Forward was a 2000 romantic drama featuring Kevin Spacey, Haley Joel Osment, and Helen Hunt. Decently well-received, I found it a good, heart-warming, thought-provoking movie. It is also an allegory for how open source works.

Ab…

Whatever you do, don't tell anyone.
Had a song spinning around in my head this morning. Could not remember the songs title or the band. Had to crawl back through a few days of Mastodon posts to see an image to remind myself – that Queens of the Stone Age have a new album out today.

A mass-exodus from Google Maps to Mapquest because Trump renamed Lake Ontario was not on my bingo card...

“Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. But I rather believe than time is a companion who goes with us on the journey, and reminds us to cherish every moment because they'll never come again. What we leave behind is not as important how we lived. After all, Number One, we're only mortal.” – Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek: Generations (1994)

I like I can put notes on accounts that I block to remind me _why_ I am blocking them.
