@bruce_toews I think at the heart of it independence means that we were able to do it on our own time/at our own initiative. At least that's the thing that sticks out for me a lot of the time.

In reply to @summersun704.

@summersun704 Oh man, will do definitely.

In reply to @Pawpower.

@Pawpower @wesderby @kernsac Yes. Totally over the heat and humidity here too. Not sure I'm looking forward to winter because that brings its own issues, but at least fall.

In reply to @FreakyFwoof.

@FreakyFwoof Terrible travel days suck. I hope you get some time to chill after that.

In reply to @boogiechild.

@boogiechild Stay cool. Literally.

In reply to @devinprater.

@devinprater The only people who ever fob off one letter here or there being incorrect as not a big deal are the ones who have never had to manually correct OCRed texts so they can be used.

In reply to @feoh.

@feoh Maybe people wouldn't look to communism or anarchism if capitalists didn't spend so much time and energy letting the worst parts of human nature flourish and then not standing up the infrastructure to offset that for the sake of profit. This is like Christians letting all kinds of evil flourish in their ranks, and then bemoaning the existence of atheists.

In reply to @bryansmart.

@bryansmart Politician spam is so rampant that I get spam from politicians in states where I don't even live. And they all think my name is Ryan for some reason. Sometimes I want to find the Ryan who had this number before me and strangle him for signing up for all the damn campaign texts.

In reply to @aurooba.

@aurooba Sending you internet hugs. It's counter-intuitive but sometimes a vacation, even in the middle of the world being on fire, is the best thing for you.

In reply to @skc.

@skc Oh man I'm so sorry you two are having so much trouble.

In reply to @ANGELGIRL1976.

@ANGELGIRL1976 @WingnutKV @amorphisbear @Marvella @summersun704 @lynnskyi It actually ends up not being a lot of it. I think it's a 6-pack or something like that, which is part of what makes it so expensive.

In reply to @pfefferle.

@pfefferle I call us fedizens.

In reply to @ANGELGIRL1976.

@ANGELGIRL1976 @WingnutKV @amorphisbear @Marvella @summersun704 @lynnskyi If you can't find them in your area they're on Amazon, but kind of expensive.

In reply to @simon.

@simon They're just trying to create artificial scarcity.

In reply to @yatil.

@yatil @matuzo Yeah that's an AccessiBe affiliate, as in, AccessiBe runs an affiliate program and I really hope someone at the NFB convention asked them while they were doing their apology tour presentation how all of that squares with their current attempt to convince us all they're super sorry and stuff.

In reply to @lauren.

@lauren Wall? I think that's still a thing.

@Marvella Oh no I'm so sorry I will definitely keep you in my thoughts.

In reply to @marklemley.

@marklemley Is this referring to hyperlinking the photo, or using Instagram's photo embed?

In reply to @bruce_toews.

@bruce_toews @technolass I agree with Bruce here. There's also the possibility that, as president of the chapter/org, you're in a position to make change that others cannot, so saying something about this man's behavior could do some good. But also it's not a simple thing to deal with either and I get that.

In reply to @housepanther.

@housepanther I get that, but I can't figure out how to manually add book info that isn't already in the DB. This could be a pebcak error though.
