@patrickrhone And Rebecca Solnit is joining the chorus as well.

@patrickrhone David Brooks is, shall we say, evolving. I am not sure liberals are giving him enough credit for this, choosing instead to attack him for his past views rather than looking clear-eyed at what he’s writing now.

@drwalt I’m gonna listen. I also saw a Guardian article talking about a comeback for commercial theatre among 18-25 yo demo. You have to have stars, though, and I think it has to be relate to something they’re already familiar with.

@drwalt I was a very occasional reader of PAJ. I really agree with the decision to let it go. Not many people or institutions seem to value that perspective. Some things are just a product of their time and era.

@drwalt You know what else is hilarious? The AI talks to me like I’m some kind of tech-savvy, on point millennial/GenZ type. Obviously it doesn’t know I’m a fading, un-hip Boomer academic. My “vibe” attenuated sometime in 2003.

@AdamChandler sigh. This makes me terribly sad. My house is paid off, and my plan is to stay here until it’s impossible not to. I’ve already deeded it over to my children, and I hope they have the good sense to hang onto it as a last refuge for their retirements.

@AdamChandler Wow. When I was visiting my daughter in Olympia WA we took a quick look at housing prices there and they seem so out of line. I think sellers may not yet have caught up with the realities of the housing market. So few young people have money to buy these homes at these prices and with rates this high.

@AdamChandler Looks like what you may have on your hands is a seller who can afford to wait for someone who’s either desperate or dumb. Or both.

@ayjay I’ve worked with Mary Ramsey a couple of time at the Irish Classical Theatre Company in Buffalo. She’s also a graduate of SUNY Fredonia, where I taught for 29 years (she graduated before I got there). 10K Maniacs are the pride of the WNY region.

@bradenslen I think that’s why those are the only cars parked on the street. Didn’t look that closely though.

@manton Honest question: My current domain name service charges me $15/yr to host my domain name. Transferring it to Micro.blog would cost me $25/yr. Is it better for me to stay where I am, save $10 and point the domain to my micro.blog, or are there some advantages to using MB as my domain name register service that I might be missing?
