One of y’all could write an excellent prologue for said book.

@nblr @gsuberland @kenshirriff

Y’all people have filthy minds.

I mean, it’s the first thing I thought of too but I never claimed not to have a filthy mind.

@inthehands

I want to be sure everyone knows that it is not rudeness or mere visceral reaction that makes me say this. This is a carefully thought out position, cultured and matured over years of concentrated thought and investigation. Ahem. Fuck Ted Cruz.

My kids each have Chromebooks from school. All of their schoolwork is in Google Classroom, except that some of it is in MAP and some of it is in Blackboard and some of it is in IXL, or maybe Seesaw, or GoFormative, or iStation or sometimes Classlink or eSchool or Beanstack.

I don’t want to sound like a grumpy old man but this really doesn’t seem easier than just having a class folder with paper in it.

My sister-in-law’s void and I are bros.

We don’t watch dubbed in *this* house.

I don’t want to jinx it, but he is taking #Japanese more seriously than anything I’ve ever seen him do.

Magic, got it.

My father likes to go through Important Documents and sort them to be Dealt With, but he doesn’t have any at the facility. My wife has started taking any important-looking spam we get and putting his name on it for me to deliver to him, so he can have things to do.

She’s a very good daughter-in-law; I’m very grateful.

(It doesn’t matter if it’s spam; he was taking random things from my sister like her mortgage statements and her son’s homework putting it in his box of documents.)

BTW, for my own curiosity: are y’all a Solaris shop? Linux? I feel like I see Solaris pop up for y’all.

@cks

Oh yeah that’s 100% under the control of the sender. Lotta localhosts out there.

@rothko @inthehands

Definitely possible. She moved to Texas when she was three or four.

@inthehands

My wife was born in Minnesota (though she moved to Texas when she was pretty young) and she remembers “Duck, Duck, Green Duck”

Get it together, Minnesota.
