(no subject)

I've since gotten the digital subscription to the Toronto Star underway. So that's solved.

Not sure what else to discuss at the moment, so maybe this is an "open mic" posting...?

ART: Sudden Question About Mobile AI People

Inspired by the webcomic Questionable Content...and I'm fairly certain that I'm not the first to have this thought: such people - May and Bubbles and the like from said webcomic, Data and so on from Star Trek, the Vision at Marvel, etc. - could have their own versions of graphic design software loaded up in their systems as either a core component or an add-on.

Do you think they'd prefer Inkscape? Or something else? I'd imagine it'll vary from character to character.

Petro-States

From Charlie's Diary:

Graydon: "Canada is a petro-state in a bad way politically."

There is an effort underway to keep us entrapped in being a petro-state against our will right now, provincial government by provincial government. It's been underway for a decade or two, at least, I believe.

Whether we can rescue ourselves from that...October is the next stop-gap point for that, I think. Is it the last opportunity, though?

On the end of ST: Discovery's First Season

And I've just finished watching "Will You Take My Hand?"

I fully expect screams already in progress over the way the episode ended. Of shock. Of rage. Of joy.

Hunkering Down

Let's just say that Environment Canada's persuaded me to hole up at the public library branch nearest to home a bit longer than planned.

Will let everyone know when I'm home safe enough.

In the meantime, consider this an "open mic" session.

Still here...

...but having trouble finding things to talk about right now.

So maybe this is a good time for a general "open mike" session?

I know a lot of you have already spoken up on your own LJs, and we've got this DDoS attack targeting some of our fellow LJ users in Russia right now. Still...

Open Mic II(or "I've had it today")

You looked at the front pages of the newspapers?

Fine. There's one of my reasons for being fed up in a nutshell. And I've noticed other sane people by the thousands in a similar state for related reasons.

(And then there's the spam everyone finds themselves coping with, and on and on...)

So, I'm going to do something sane.

I'm posting a link to a particularly pleasing spaceref.com article I read recently. Some good news for today at least.

Then I'm going back to drawing pages whilst leaving the mic open. Share some other good news I may not have heard yet.

Please.
