We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.”

We went to El Paso Comic Con once. It was neat. @ltlenas.bsky.social wore her BioShock outfit and of course I had to be Spider-Man because it was an expensive suit.
