Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Internet of Shit?

(in all seriousness, it's not directly my field, but I know enough people who are into it that I'd think I'd hear if the term was unfashionable, and I haven't...)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Huh. Cat declawing was just made illegal in NY.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Coding and Sleeping

As far as I know IoT is still a phrase. The "connected home" is another popular phrase, but that's really a subset of the space.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Men, what say you?

In my college dorms I frequently peed in the girls bathroom if that was closest. Even when they were brushing their teeth. (Of course they had stalls, but I rarely bothered to close the door since I had my back turned etc.)

In short: Most Guys Will Pee Anywhere.

I would unpack the privilege in this but I think it amounts to: Most Guys Will Pee Anywhere Anytime They Want.

It is, but NY is the first state to outright make it illegal.
