It gets so cold after midnight

I did spend the majority of this afternoon on the phone with health insurance. So did [personal profile] spatch. It went poorly. We cooked a steak in self-defense. Have some links.

1. An excellent interview with Judith Butler, all the more so because the interviewer keeps pushing her for cheap answers on trans rights and feminism and cancel culture and Butler keeps pushing back: "Let us be clear that the debate here is not between feminists and trans activists. There are trans-affirmative feminists, and many trans people are also committed feminists. So one clear problem is the framing that acts as if the debate is between feminists and trans people. It is not." The entire thing is quotable.

2. "For 18 months, at precisely 7am every day, the broadband signal in the tiny Welsh village of Aberhosan simply vanished." Sapphire and Steel have been assigned . . .

3. I like this information about the speed of chocolate.

It is absolutely fascinating to me that the gig economy is such that an interested party can have things delivered 443 miles away between the hours of “Goodnight!” and “Your parcel arrived while I was unconscious” O’clock.

You are sampling the sticky coconut rice chips on my behalf! And the bag of chocolate chips is for Rob. But he could probably do some unholy coconut rice chip-chocolate chip hybridization.

That might have been an Assignment somewhere else, but it sounds pretty normal for Wales!! XD
