Thinking a lot about Stranger Things S4 (and listening to the latest OSP Detail Diatribe) is resurfacing a lot of memories - most notably the elements of "satanic panic" that held over well into the 2000s when I was first playing D&D.
My current biggest gripes with S4:
1. The Sinclair sibs kicking parallel butt in E1 should have been paralleled in V2. It would've created a nice bookend to the season for my favourite characters!

We are now further away from the theatrical release of Raiders of the Lost Ark (June 12, 1981) than it was from the year it takes place in (1936). We have reached the Indiana Jones event horizon.

Apollo 11 Bootprint Hoodie
Inspired by the iconic Apollo 11 bootprint on the Moon, we set out to get as close to the real thing as possible. This was no small step, but we did it. Meet our lunar bootprint hoodie with a true 3D imprint you can both see and feel.

I'm an "A.i." abolitionist.
No consumer-facing LLMs or generative "A.i." in anything.
Sure, machine learning in science and a few other limited applications is fine.
But consumer-facing LLMs and generative "A.i." that are based on theft, push disinfo, and can be manipulated by billionaires?
No.

Is the Canberra Health Services website down? I've been trying to access it since yesterday, with no luck.
I got an after-visit summary through MyDHR for a medical appointment and it is more riddled with errors than the plot of Stranger Things S4. I need to get it corrected, but I'm not sure how.
