Me later: and you were carrying five extra pounds of stuff in your bag that you don't need at the moment... for reasons?

If you live in another state, check this for relevant deadlines: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/06/us/politics/state-voter-registration-deadlines.html

You can also use that page to double-check that you are on the voter list.

If you registered in the past, DO NOT ASSUME THAT YOU ARE STILL REGISTERED.

Why? See https://www.gregpalast.com/georgia-voter-purge-list-2018/

Tomorrow, 9 October, is the deadline to register to vote in the state of Georgia and be eligible to vote in the November general elections. https://registertovote.sos.ga.gov/

Routine check-up day! #catsofmastodon #caturday

TFW you find yourself digging the pen out from underneath a stack of papers so that the cat can play with it... and not knock everything off the table in the process of rooting for said pen.

@platypus Yeah; further Googling and some more testing I did suggests that the problem accessing it over IPv6 is intermittent. Footnote to effect that it might freeze and to try again?
