My house has no power but so far we still have connectivity. Though if we're still out in the next 20-30 minutes we're going to have to shut down our servers, too. Right now we're on UPSes.

PSE app on my phone says they're over 347,000 out now.

Seattle City Light's broken again but their last number of about 79K is still showing.

Snohomish PUD is at 116K.

Definitely over half a mil now.

You know that Star Trek movie where McCoy visited 20thC Earth, and complained about their doctors being butchers who wanted to hack into people?

I'm pretty sure Scotty would've gone off on a rant about the toxic stupidity of gigawatts of Lithium-ion batteries, while energy is all around us.

The NYT running nonsensical (and ungrammatical) AI slop in an ad on their front page.

I just realized that the recent election is a perfect example of a Bozonova - when large numbers of Bogons (the fundamental particle of bogosity) accumulate, they warp the righteousness of the Universe and render a large area completely bogus. This phenomenon is rare but terrible.

I was a little girl growing up in the Indianapolis suburbs when Tyson went to prison for rape. The news would cover the celebrities like Whitney Houston visiting him. Tonight, a rapist is president-elect and I rooted for Mike to k*ll that dumb incel on live television. What a time be alive?
