@sjvn This is awful. My kids had such a unique relationship with the library staff at school. I think it's so beneficial for them.

I took a run out to the store and saw a work truck that had hit a telegraph poie at the end of our road. The truck was absolutely wrecked. Hope the driver was okay. No ambulance, just a cruiser so I expect they weren't hurt. . The pole was somehow still standing.

The last time this happened the pole did not make it and our power was out for five hours.

Really enjoy Ahmed's videos about his mechanic adventures; this one is all about what goes into used car certification - it's surprisingly rigorous.

Went to cumberland just inside the MD border. The eldest wanted to see it - it is a railroad town - I would very much like to come back when it isn't so diabolically hot.

@adminkirsty Been watching him in Super Formula. He's been great.

Such an utterly unforgiving and hard world is not many other fields where your replacement dangles over you like Damocles

@Flick I feel fortunate to have not seen any. I've seen it mentioned in the context of Anime 'enthusiasts' hosting it, but mercifully little else.

@Flick No I mean I don't mind them checking for that kind of material.

@Flick Very probably. I know google got some shit for screening drive for content and removing wrongthink, but I don't care if people look for CSAM

@lain @feld Such a strange thing. I've seen many similar over the years.
