@erinbee I'm similarly disappointed whenever I see roadworks happening around here: https://www.batstrafficsolutions.com
It's filled with broadband antennas. Very disappointing.

@erinbee imagine Thoreau blogging
“I came out into the woods to escape my habits, and yet every day I find myself logging into the same Livejournal account. I have muscle memory in spite of myself. Such is the plight of mankind.”
My Kobo stopped connecting to my computer, so I'm updating my computer's OS so it will actually recognize the damn thing. I want it ready for summer, because one of the best things about camping is reading late at night.
(Taking an e-reader with me camping sometimes feels discordant. Like Thoreau absolutely would have gone home to use his mom's internet connection to download ebooks and then waxed about the beauty of reading in nature, pretending by omission that the books just appeared.)
I have an ancestor whose sister married a log driver in the mid-1800s, and basically he'd go off on the log drive for months and when he got back, she'd end up pregnant. Then he'd be off again, and she'd send the kids out of the house while she had her baby alone in the kitchen. Isabella had at least eleven kids! So whenever I hear "Log Driver's Waltz" I'm like nooo girrrrllll.

People are losing their minds over the possibility of Tessa Thompson and Janelle Monáe as a /together/ together item, but what she says is just so perfect for what everybody in their heart of hearts wants from a variety of relationship types: "We’re so close, we vibrate on the same frequency." https://www.net-a-porter.com/ca/en/porter/article-502e16f70e0351fa/cover-stories/cover-stories/tessa-thompson

rt @PaulMMCooper Dutch engineers drained Amsterdam's River while building a metro, and they've put every object they found at the bottom online.
This just arrived! The Tarotwave Kickstarter I posted a while back sure did have a quick turnaround. This box feels pretty sturdy and is adequately outrageous.
