"Dr. Lam. You stand convicted of thirty-five counts of manslaughter for performing the forbidden dilation and extraction procedure. Do you have anything further to say before the Court passes sentence?"
"I #regret nothing. History will judge you more harshly than anything you do to me."

Netscape Navigator comes to mind, but not in a helpful way. I'm stuck on chrome for the stable html5 implementation.
Why is it that I can #recall every detail of things that happened twenty years ago, but have no idea why I came into the kitchen? Or maybe a break room. What the hell is this place?
I brush past someone in scrubs and see a sign out the window. Vancouver memory center.

The capsule reached #apogee one the 113th day, mission clock 03:14:15.9. We were too far out by half, and didn't have the fuel to avoid burning up in the plasmashpere on our next pass.
I silenced the computer countdown of our final seven hours. Even doom can get #monotonous.

"You just don't respect my #boho lifestyle."
"I guess I could make a donation to TB research."
"What's that got to do with anything?"
"It's a history thing."
"That's your problem, cousin. Never living in the moment."
"My bad. Did you go to see someone about that rash?"

"The man," Daryl slammed his fist, "is irreplaceable." His mother-in-law Carol didn't flinch.
"Have some tea, Darren," Carol encouraged. "I made it especially for you."
"It's Daryl!" he complained.
"Sorry, I must have confused you with the guy from #Bewitched. Do you like almond taste?"

Gen Z show up to the Rocky Horror Picture Show, sort of. They can dress up as #Magenta, but the real power was in feeling the audience respond in unison. Well, that and losing one's viginity to the on stage cast.

You had to keep an eye on Dale when he had his dowsing rod.
"We can't go in there Dale. Read the signs."
"I thought you didn't believe in #augury."
"No, Dale. On the fence in big letters."
"No trespassing? What are they trying to hide?"
"No, the other one."
"Superfund? What's that?"

The panelist beside me droned on about how we had turned our back on tradition. He wanted women to submit to men. He danced around the idea that whites should rule. When he demanded that men be more #chivalrous, there was only one thing I could do. I took off my glove and slapped him. #vss365
We scatter aimlessly with great purpose, dense in construction yet sparse in the vastness. Most vanish in rifts or burn in stars. Finding the #aphotic depths of a planet with enough heat to activate our reproduction is an impossible lottery. But we bought a lot of tickets.

Marketeers use names like Passion, Romance or #suave as if they can change the cosmetics aisle into a red light district. Did they have to sacrifice their dreams to exploit yours?

I skipped #vss365 #last night, but I'm back today so I can build a habit rather than a streak.
Sipping a warm cup of turkey soup in the ER waiting room, I hear the bickering love I had with my brother in the voices of my parents. Shouldn't the #reflection go the other way around?

Baseball isn't a #timed event. The worse the hometown defense plays, the longer they ask you to watch it.

Subscribers to the podcast were up. The legacy networks couldn't get enough interviews. Hollywood extended an offer to grow from cameos to starring roles. The only place he wasn't #relevant was at home.
"That is never going to happen," Kyle complained.
"Anything is #achievable if you work hard enough," Karen countered.
"That's what I said."

A single milivolt, barely #measurable, was enough to change the world. A biological capacitor. A heartbeat without a heart. An excuse to deny chemotherapy. The potential future of a woman with hopes and dreams, sacrificed on the altar of political ambition. #vss365
I always have scenes and themes running through my head, but one look at a blank page requires a saving throw versus paralysis or else the #specific details all run and hide in the ducts.

They keep telling me that every #action has an equal an opposite reaction. I just wish that was true for mistakes.

A hedge fund quant spent day and night using puts, calls, and heavily leveraged straddles with insider information to amass more money than he could spend in three lifetimes. The only #option he lacked was a way to step away and enjoy it.

My daily #reality involves sorting pills into little boxes to be opened when the alarm bells ring. My doctor told me that taking them is my most important job. It doesn't pay well. I wonder who they will get to take them when I'm gone. #vss365
China is already moving aggressively to take over the contracts. This is generational market loss.

A little over 82 years ago, Marvel introduced their most patriotic superhero, Captain America. He showed his love of country and freedom by wearing chain mail and using his literal iron fist on villains wearing swastikas.
Are you feeling patriotic like Captain America?
In 2028, I want to vote for a candidate. We have four years of work to do to make that possible.
I think I need to build up to impostor syndrome before I'm ready.
Worst popcorn ever.
It's not about what Trump believes.
He wants bribes.
What do the bribers want?
I wonder if the new AG will investigate himself for trafficking minors.
