Michigan Democrat files articles of impeachment against Trump

Good for you, Mr. Thanedar. At this point, I don’t care how quixotic this is. I’d like to see new articles filed every day by every Democratic member of the House.

Put an Old-School BBS on Meshtastic Radio

Tempting. Many many years ago I ran a dialup BBS on a Heathkit H-89 computer using Tom Jennings’s Puppy BBS software - the source code for which amazingly can still be found online. Perhaps I’ll go back in my dotage.

A nearby dark molecular cloud in the Local Bubble revealed via H2 fluorescence

Gotta love astronomers: “nearby” in this case means about 300 light years away. Or if you’re a bit rusty on astronomical math, 1,800,000,000,000,000 miles or thereabouts.

Finished: The Dream Master, by Roger Zelazny 📚. Not IMO one of Zelazny’s better works, even if it did win the Nebula; this story of a psychiatrist who literally shares dreams with a student seems a bit self-conscious and over-extended at this point. But we don’t have enough Zelazny books (due to his premature death) and I’ll continue to hang on to and reread this 40 cent Ace paperback.
