In other, even more distressing news, the tech eval came back to rehab. Plese realize that the guy who did it, I had a bad feeling about him from the beginning. My Brailliant is out of warranty and starting to break down. There are a couple faint cells and some of the keys are not working right at all. Plus, it's a 20. I really could use a 40-cell display with this digital accessibility course and my hopeful eventual career in that. but the jerks recommended no equipment at all and just training. The only things they mentioned that I told them I didn't know well was Google, though I'm learning it as I go. Or formulas and advanced Excel stuff. We are going to have a conversation on march 9 and I am just not sure how much hope I can have in this, because she wants us to talk to the head of the tech department, and my feeling is won't she just defend her employee? I don't know. I am tempted to do payments and get an Orbit 20 Plus. This Brailliant already left me without material I needed twice at church; the SD card reader also seems to be unreliable right now. my focus is only a 14 and I've seen enough of them fail that I don't trust it. Also, no on-board translation, which I have come to rely on a lot. A friend thought I should just get a BT Speak, and like memorize my choir lyrics or just use a headset and have speech read to me and sing it back, or something, and I'm not sure, with my slight hearing loss, that this is a good idea for me. How is the Orbit 20 Plus working for people who have it lately? I know I can write it off possibly as a work thing too maybe, since I am doing something very part time right now. I am just really discouraged and frustrated right now. I was really hoping for, at the least, a 40-cell display, although I really think something like the Evolve would really help me in so many ways.

General action is something to sustain over the long term, and something that has just begun in america in a few specific places.

Now the fascists are OPENLY politically threatening and attacking states, Minnesota again, by threatening the benefits THEY HAVE EARNED through economic contributions to the fed. Its time to end this fascist state and GENERAL ACTION is our main tool.

Post #SOTU, I'm seeing some narratives starting to congeal around both political parties:

The #GOP: Is "normal" (holds popular social and legal values)
The #DemocratParty: Is "weird" (derogatory) or "radical" (complimentary)

The #GOP: Doesn't care about corruption
The #DemocratParty: Opposes corruption

The #GOP: Cares about affordability
The #DemocratParty: Doesn't care about affordability.

I think who wins the midterms will depend on how much the parties lean into or run away from these.

in reply to casey is remote

ok but still a huge stretch to say dems care about corruption. GWB's justice department started the investigations of Epstein. Obama halted them, Trump first doj restarted them, Biden sat on them. Thus its a huge stretch to credit dems with caring about corruption but certainly a valid criticism of GOP, unless some arrests happen before mid terms (doj claims active investigations)

I prefer the shorter seasons we have now.
20+ episodes was nice but 2-6 of those were a mixed-bag of filler episodes. Sometimes fun or experimental, but often they would focus on one of the least interesting characters, filling in a lackluster backstory or going on a boring side quest that is not really part of the season's story arc.
in reply to Hunk🏳️‍🌈

I also think the writing was often lazier back during those long seasons.
The focus was on the syndication deals that would come after, so the episodes were often stand-alone, so they could be rerun in any order, forever.
Which meant a lot of shows did not have an arc for the season, it was just really the last 4 episodes. Characters sometimes wouldn't grow at all until a major plot point.
in reply to Hunk🏳️‍🌈

I actually preferred the sometimes meandering often resetting 20+ episodes, because there was so much more room for characters to grow, get to know them, not everything had to be high stakes or move the bar.

Not to mention, they could and would just do weird things for a few episodes. Some of my favorite shows had concepts and tropes that just came from one-off random eps, or mini arcs.

You also didn't feel such pressure to actually have to watch every single episode, it was fine.

in reply to Oggie

x-files was mostly meandering monster of the week, and we would have discussion if this week's would be a plot mover or generally just filler ( but some of the filler was fantastic!).

They also occasionally took what were one off episodes and turned them into arcs. DS9, SG-1, and many other shows did this- make a one off gaf into 'oh hey this actually matters'.

There was a lot more freedom to experiment, to let actors have fun, and to try strange things.

What. The hell is wrong with the NYCPD? The only thing I can assume is they are not Christian because I don’t think a Christian would ever succumb to this.
