Hiking Paradise just after sunrise. #MountRainier #hiking #Washington #pnw #mountains #wildflowers

Just another glitch
in the machinery
Tech Central decrees
is too expensive to be fixed...

Gotta do the workaround
to bypass the defect
in our ancient process
that will not be upgraded
til the last of us dinosaurs
is gone

Christian, incl Unitarian, & Jewish clergy challenge Missouri abortion bans under Missouri state constitution

They make establishment & free exercise claims:

Establishment: "the true purpose and effect of these laws was to enshrine certain religious beliefs in law.""

Free Exercise: plaintiffs " beliefs and lived experiences stand in stark contrast to the religious dictates that the Total Abortion Ban... impose on all Missourians"

Thanks to covid, then travel, then a biblical seeming 40 days and 40 nights of rain, haven't had much of a chance to ride the bike, but finally got out today and rode along the Bay (that's SF in the distance). Windy and a bit cold, but nice.

For me, that would be Star Man's Son, by Andre Norton (later retitled Daybreak - 2250 A.D.)
That was in about 1963. It made such a strong impression on me, that to this day I often use the name of the title character in gaming.
Of course, thereafter I read every Andre Norton book I could get my hands on, along with Heinlein, McCaffrey, Asimov, Bradley, Burroughs, etc.

Alright #SecretSciFiNetwork denizens!
Time for a test of the network.
What's the #SciFi book, movie, or show that turned you into a life-long #ScienceFiction fan?
What was it about that particular show that lit you up?

Remember to add the #SecretSciFiNetwork hashtag in your response.

Oh no, this is serious. We will need a staple gun, and some tape.

Happy #SkUNkday! (also not #caturday)

I really like putting chili powder on my breads just before baking: makes for a great savory flavor

My friend at an academic institution is trying to #unionize and it’s a huge battle against anti-#union efforts and she’s incredibly stressed. Can folks please send her some hopeful messages?

Aight, I'll stop emoting and try to get back to work.
