Two words, people: Bed Suspenders

I would give $$ for a “hide this author” feature in Libby

Also on the topic of #fantasy literature: I’ve found that I’m deathly allergic to most Anglo-centric narratives. The moment I see druids, fairies (or worse The Fae or derivative), I pretty much always click “Back” hard.

After getting a bit tired of my library’s digital collection of #scifi, I’m branching off into #fantasy for a while, and finding some great series to dive into. I really need to add to my list of “books-read” posts #reading2020

Since we’re in #stayhomestaysafe, perfect time to watch the Bourne trilogy

Perhaps I've missed this with git or on Github/Gitlab, but it would be amazing if we could add a "branch description" when creating a branch so that when I'm looking at stale branches i have an idea of WTH I was thinking at the time.

Oh NOW they fix it

They almost had the right headline #fify (Keep the disinfectants outside your body please!)

I got to pet a baby cow today. That is all.

A co-worker linked me to https://6dollarshirts.com and it's totally filling my need for cheap + dumb + funny shirts

There's SO MUCH #covid19 data right now, opennews.org discusses how to make sense of it all
