The good news is that I replaced the electric starter AND the regulator assembly on my gas grill and I didn't even explode! The bad news is that it's still broken.

Maybe the propane canister just happened to crap out when I replaced the igniter? If that's not it, new BBQ it is.

I am super tired of people saying “politicians” when the problem is _Republican_ politicians. Like, hey the Democrats in the House passed a bill to address a bunch of this shit months ago, but Republicans in the Senate haven’t even pretended to look at it.

Dear Every College Student in the US Who May or May Not Be Returning to Campus:

Now is a good time to register to vote or double-check your voter status. Know how to request an absentee ballot.

Do it now before things get busy and chaotic.

Sincerely,
Me

.@language_drops, with which I'm studying Samoan, does interesting things:

It's purely vocab drill; inferring word/phrase part meanings is up to you.

You compare new words to pictures, not English, so you're not in translation mode.

Your streak is not broken by missing a day.

As I was tweeting this, I saw someone next to me putting on their gas mask.

“Oh, is it gas mask’o’clock?” I said, thinking I could finish my tweet.

I could not. I looked up to a cloud of gas descending as federal officers gassed a crowd of 3k people.

Michael was at home in North Portland on June 30th when tear gas came in thru the window - police were using it on protesers outside. That was the impetus for him to join the protests. “I figured if I was going to be tear gassed, it might as well be on purpose.”

My son just wandered into my room and informed me that a pizza is a real-time pie chart of how much pizza is left.

In rearranging schedules for a hybrid semester, my college has me teaching two different classes simultaneously.

(Full respect for the committee trying to work all this out, but I am amused.)
