Cycling Pain, Gmail Block

I've realized that what seems to leave my wrist aching and in pain more than anything else I do on my bike is using the left brake. Because of that, I mostly stick to the right. Today it was wet out and I used both for a little extra surety; thanks to that, my wrist pain this morning is, I think, around a 4 on the 0-10 scale with spikes to 5.

Gmail is still blocked at work. Several patrons have asked about it, to which I can only say "I dunno; it's because of some kind of virus thing. Ask the help desk."

Presidential Rhetoric

I've been fascinated lately by what gets self-censored (letters in profane words being replaced with asterisks, for instance) and what doesn't, and what kind of messages and feelings are being conveyed with those choices, and how that ties in to the broader fabric. The one from Trump today is such a weird one.

It's ok to say "BULLSHIT", but not ok to say 'jock strap?'

People are weird.
