I found these instructions on how to install KoReader and use Wallabag. It looks like a real pain in the ass. I hope Rakuten does something, because I'm not doing that unless I absolutely have to.

My Kobo has the Pocket app and I'll miss being able to send articles to it. Apparently I'll be one of the few to be sad to see Pocket go.

I worry what you just heard was "bring me a lot of bacon and eggs". What I said was "Bring me all the bacon and eggs you have".

I am the son of MAGA parents. They were never overtly racist. They were always kind to my non-white friends and their non-white neighbors, always thinking that they were "one of the good ones". But since Trump has validated their latent racism, it has become more ugly. I think that's more insidious and dangerous than empowering the lunatic fringe, honestly.

An oldie but a goodie! Here's a better image without the artist's credit cropped out: https://i.redd.it/a3si3b0brn211.jpg

On edit: I didn't realize the punchline was edited. The artist still deserves credit, though.

"You will pay dearly for foisting this indignity upon me. Oh yes. Quite dearly."

Trump wanting to change the name of Veteran's Day to Victory Day makes more sense to me now.

I'm reading Neuromancer in anticipation of the Apple TV series. I'm impressed with Gibson's writing. It's quite a stylistic change from the last book I read (Handling the Undead by John Ajvide Lindvquist).
