In "Always Coming Home" Ursula Le Guin imagined an entire culture, that of the Kesh, in every detail, which betrays her family background in anthropology (Alfred and Theodora Kroeber were her parents). An early book edition was even published with an MC (cassete tape) containing songs of the Kesh. Today, they are not lost! They can still be found on Bandcamp (link below). Have fun!

βLaura Loomer is a crazy conspiracy theorist who regularly utters disgusting garbage intended to divide Republicans. A DNC plant couldnβt do a better job than she is doing to hurt President Trumpβs chances of winning re-election.β

Trump launching a cryptocurrency business -- almost certainly the sleaziest industry ever invented -- and getting vast campaign funding from the crypto bros are a reminder that it's all corruption, all the time in Trump world.
Remember, he used to be against deregulation of crytpo...one of the few sensible positions he'd taken.

When I mentioned calendar-event-creation methods I had two separate people reply to express the same UI complaint with their voice assistants, and it's really interesting to me they are running into basically the same papercut even though one is using iOS/Siri and the other Android/Google Assistant

unfortunately there only seems to have been a tiny impact on the polls following the debate -- and, if anything, a negative one. Perhaps there's a moral about the power of spectacular lies (that there were more viewers who hadn't previously heard the racist "eating pets" BS, and allowed it to influence their judgement, than people who recognised it as racist BS.)
Vlad Vexler ("VV chat", on YT) remains optimistic, despite thinking a Trump win still more likely than not. I want whatever herbal tea he's drinking!
