Here we may reign secure; and,
in my choice,
To reign is worth ambition,
though in Hell:
Better to reign in Hell than

Gmail autocorrected "Sturm und Drang" to "Sturm and Drang" and I didn't catch it. It's been bothering me all day

Also this week: PPS is laying off folks mid-year, PCC faculty & staff are on strike, Portland State U is in retrenchment, and Trimet is reducing routes
If you're in Portland, PCC faculty and classified employees are going on strike tomorrow. You can show solidarity by walking the picket lines with them. All campuses, 10:30am.
And lo, forthcameth the chopper, and they saw the chopper, and wondrest why they shouldst not get in it.

I tried having a conversation with AI Bobby Fischer and AI Ezra Pound but I couldn't really tell the difference.
βWe fell short on thisβ means they want to keep doing it.
I was doing chess endgame exercises on the bus because it's the only thing I can do that doesn't make me carsick, and the guy next to me asked if I play. I basically said "I'm not good, but I like it." And so of course he followed up with, "Do you think Hans Niemann used a buttplug?"

I did a free grammarly trial to see if Iβm an expert (Iβm not). If youβre thinking of doing the same, please donβt. Getting this shit off of my computer has been an extreme hassle. Vanitas vanitatum
I hate having to hear what Joe Rogan has opinions about, it's like having to consult the learned pig at the fair about everything
