Early in our relationship, Danielle was dealing with a terrible migraine and her normal medications were not helping. I was feeling helpless as she cried in my arms from the pain. I quietly sang this song to her as I held her and she settled and was able to drift off to sleep.

It's difficult to decide which Al Stewart song to use for today's category, because so many of his lyrics use historical events as a metaphor. But here are a couple of my favorites: Al Stewart, "Man For All Seasons" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzI_rqO0nE4 Al Stewart, "Laughing Into 1939" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eD6YU98tLY #JukeboxFridayNight #History

Painting a grim picture of the #WPBL’s internal and external communications. As a hard-core fan of the league I have personally found this frustrating, but they’re also jerking around prospective players and the few media outlets wanting to cover the nascent league. Also the last-minute ESPN media deal sabotaged a number of sports bars that had scheduled watch parties. I hope the league can do better next season. https://defector.com/the-new-womens-pro-baseball-league-offers-hope-and-frustratio...

I've heard several mondegreens for different lines in the chorus of Boston's "More Than a Feeling", but mine was always the second line. The correct lyrics are: "It's more than a feeling (More than a feeling) When I hear that old song they used to play (More than a feeling) And I begin dreaming (More than a feeling) 'Til I see Marianne walk away I see my Marianne walkin' away" But my brain changed "When I hear that old song they used to play" t...

Here's a challenge for all you Linux DFIR types that I've never been able to satisfactorily solve: You have multiple Linux disk images that were all derived from a common base image. Consequently, they have duplicate LVM2 group names, volume GUIDs, etc. You'd like to be able to mount the images simultaneously, but Linux doesn't allow mounting LVM volumes with duplicate names. To date, the only solution I have found is to make a working copy of the image and then destructively r...

Rebooting “Ghost Rider” with Ryan Gosling? Two thoughts: 1) The Nick Cage version was definitive 2) Hollywood is a cesspool of non-innovation

“But there are none so frightened, or so strange in their fear, as conquerors. They conjure phantoms endlessly, terrified that their victims will someday do back what was done to them—even if, in truth, their victims couldn’t care less about such pettiness and have moved on. Conquerors live in dread of the day when they are shown to be, not superior, but simply lucky.” “The Stone Sky”, N.K. Jemisin

The USA imposing tariffs for forced labor in other countries while ignoring prison labor in our own country is all kinds of screwed up.

Not “migrants”, not “illegals”—people. They are people. And our government and governments around the world are killing them. And telling us that the victims are murderers and rapists. Every accusation a confession.

Creativity, cleverness, intelligence, wisdom—I see bad things happen whenever one of these is emphasized at the expense of the others. Theory must often give way to experience. So experiments should be constructed to minimize possible harms if theory is incorrect.

When you speculate about somebody else’s feelings or actions, do you ever stop and think about what your conclusions say about you?
