Beautiful Numbness: The Book I Have Been Writing for Fifty Years
Every book has a birthday, but not every book has a conception date. Some books arrive late and fast, fully formed, demanding to be transcribed before they vanish. The Last Living American White Male was like that. Others accumulate across decades, assembling themselves in the background of a life, borrowing material from every stage and every failure and every standing ovation until the writer finally…

NEBROX: Maybe - maybe I could get it back for you.
AVON: How?
NEBROX: If I do, you've got to take me with you.
AVON: I'll think about that.
NEBROX: No, I mean it, you've got to promise.

Claude Sonnet 4.6 describes the image as: "The image appears to be a close-up shot from the classic BBC Television series **Blake's 7**, likely filmed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. The production quality, lighting, and video format are consistent with BBC television productions of that era. The scene shows an elderly male actor with long white hair swept back from his face. He has a weathered, aged appearance with deep-set blue eyes and pronounced facial features. He appears to be wearing …

oh look, a version of this meme that isn't compressed to all fuck

An image, divided into two sides. The left side is labeled "1st owner" and has a stock photo of a smiling white male-presenting figure with black hair, a graying beard, and a pale blue suit and dark blue tie standing in an office next to a window, an image of a ThinkPad running Windows XP, and an image of the Windows XP Professional logo. The right side is labeled "current owner" and has a picture of the Arch Linux logo, an Arch desktop with several terminal programs running, a trans flag, an i…

Here’s something from an 11 year old blog post. (Folio.olio) I guess we were worried about paparazzi back then. But they might be useful these days too, to counter facial and body movement ID detection.

An ad for clothing that is so brightly reflective that it will effectively wipe out any camera trying to take your picture. Titled ANTI-PAPARAZZI. There is a blazer, a scarf, and a hooded jacket up top. Below are two images of a white male sitting at a table facing the camera on the left, and on the right a washed out image of the bright blazer.

The Last Living American White Male: A Novel of Obsolescence and Love
The title may make you uncomfortable. That was the point. For the past year, I have been living inside a grey city that exists only in my imagination, spending my days with a garbage man named Robert James Miller and an administrative processing unit named Alma. Today, their story is finally available to readers. The Last Living American White Male…

Sadly couldn't join myself (wife wasn't feeling good and wanted me to stay home and help parent while she napped) but my SAR team participated in a great inter-agency training this past weekend.
It's always nice to practice alongside volunteers from other teams that we work with on real incidents and get to know each other without the pressure of a real emergency.
One note: I half feel like there should be a CW on this post for mentioning law enforcement in a positiv…

Predictably, it turns out that the 21-year-old white male with a shotgun who tried to breach Mar-A-Lago comes from a family of Trumpist magats.

"I may not know how to fix it, but I can throw a tantrum in the voice of a fast-talking, self-confident anglophone white male engineer.

The city’s chief, Brian O’Hara, confirmed the man had died following the incident, describing him as a white male and a resident of Minnesota.
The man was also a “lawful gun owner” with a permit to carry the weapon, O’Hara said, adding that the victim’s name was known to police but would yet be released.

#Blakes7 Series C, Episode 11 - Moloch
SERVALAN: [Shouting] Watch out! [Vila promptly drops the gun. The other man knocks him down and starts pummeling him. Vila, yelping with every blow that hits him, nevertheless fights back, and the two roll through the underbrush. Servalan moves toward them; as she does, Vila manages to rise. The other man grabs Vila's arm and throws him; the th…

Claude Sonnet 4 describes the image as: "In this atmospheric scene from the British sci-fi series Blake's 7, two characters are engaged in conversation in what appears to be a misty, wooded outdoor setting. The male character on the left wears a dark leather jacket and has his back partially to the camera. The female character faces him, dressed in a striking black outfit with metallic studs or decorations and white straps, giving her a distinctive, futuristic appearance. She has dark hair styl…

Beautiful weather. Great day to take down the Christmas lights before winter returns in full force.

Selfie of me, a white male with a light colored moustache. I'm standing in front of tall pine trees silhouetted against a blue sky, implying I'm standing on a roof or somewhere high up. I'm wearing sunglasses, an orange hi-vis sweater, a blue MSA helmet, and a yellow fall protection harness

Some USA Olympic Hockey players playing for Canadian teams are in for a rough ride... and if you know enough about hockey and US players, you'll be able to guess who's on top of the shit list.
But this is the part that is actually important:
“We know how this story ends,” said the writer Jennifer Weiner. “The male athletes are flying private, back to their seven-figure NHL paycheques and a White House rolling out the red carpet. The women are flying coach, back to the grind, to a league that barely pays them to play. The men, celebrated. The women, mocked.”
I'm glad the #Canucks traded Hughes, if only because it would have been extremely awkward, and possibly downright hostile.
