We are moving. There's no need for money to make the move.

Unrelated to the move, my server rack has arrived. Can't mess with it right now, but looking forward to putting together my home server cluster.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
We got notified yesterday that a teacher at Mr. S's school was experiencing COVID-like symptoms. Luckily for us it is not one of the teachers he works with.The classes the teacher does work with are going back to all-virtual until things are resolved. Mr. S's class is still doing the hybrid model of three days in person and two days virtual. All classes were supposed to go to 4 days in person starting next week, but the school is obviously holding off on that.

Cambridge is doing another round of testing nursing homes and assisted living residences, so I'm signed up for a free work-sponsored test on Nov 9.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I dropped my ballot off at an early voting site today after confirming that the ballot were taken daily to the main county site. I was first in line by then but I was also ready to be out of there. Still, I voted. Which feels epic this year. I usually use mail to return them or drop at a polling place on the day of but after the drama of the post office basically I registering me, I wasn't using them for my ballot. And I want confirmation it has been received since I don't have a lot of faith in the President wanting as many votes cast as possible.
Got my sticker and everything.

Our wings are not tired.
The record breaking voting is just so damn encouraging. What is most amazing to me are all the adults voting for the first time. My mom was very political so it came as a surprise to me that some people didn't vote. I still haven't quite gotten used to that concept.

Thrive to spite them
I didn't talk about politics (obviously) to anyone in the line but I think of the people I talked to I'd say at least one of them was probably a Trump voter. Saw trump flags on cars, one guy wearing a shirt proclaiming Faith, family, firearms, and 2 other F things.
On the one hand I'm glad lots of people are voting but on the other I wish there werent' so many people showing up for Trump

I voted today, and most of the people waiting to vote were taking the Democratic sample ballot from the volunteers and ignoring the Republican one. (Ohio has us vote on like twenty different judges, and they don't list party affiliation on the ballot, so party volunteers hand out the lists of their endorsed candidates at all the polling sites.) There was also an area where people from both parties with bullhorns were campaigning. The Republican woman was going off on QAnon nonsense about how Trump has arrested so many child traffickers.
