"What if one of YOUR favorite politicians/celebrities/etc is on the list?" Did you all not notice how quickly we dropped Neil Gaiman when we found out about the things he did?

I found a box with some 40 year old pictures, from when I was in college. As I said to a few friends from the time I shared the full set with, I'm glad that I'm no longer the person I was in college—but I'm very happy that I got to be there.

‘Our hands are tied’: Can anyone stop Trump’s tear-down of the East Wing?

Hey! What’s more fun than getting up at 1:30AM to give a remote talk at 2? Having them delay the talk by 30 minutes!
I know, it happens, but I’m allowed to be grumpy about it at two o’clock in the morning.
