Facebook allowing a “Book Burning Event” here in Central Virginia. Parents are told to check out library books they want to ban in schools so they can be burned.

This is fascism. FB is allowing it. Reckless & unacceptable.

My evidence:
- neighbor texted me 2 nights ago to say he & his spouse spied a possum on our porch
- last night coming home after dark I saw a small, white-furred something run off
- DW's recently-planted tulip bulbs have been dug up

So, hopefully I'm crazy, but *possibly* an opossum has taken up residence under our front stoop.

If that is the case, should I be trying to oust it? My DW seems pretty blase about it. I'm remembering what it took to rid our place of our rat infestation...

From today's a word a day:
To seek understanding before taking action, yet to trust my instincts when action is called for. Never to avoid danger from fear, never to seek out danger for its own sake. Never to conform to fashion from fear of eccentricity, never to be eccentric from fear of conformity. -Steven Brust, novelist (b. 23 Nov 1955)

Drat--the write-in campaign I helped with in our local City Council race was just called for the incumbent.

Hit Monkey answers the question "What if Ted Lasso was a bloodthirsty assassin, but also super-upbeat and a ghost?"

Also figured out how to flash new firmware onto said kb from linux.

Woo-hoo--I have successfully programmed a dedicated take-screenshot key onto my keyboard.

I'd had one for windows, but now I've got one for linux too.
