The air is breathable again and it’s amazing

The neural net trained on a combination of robotics teams and Night Vale transcripts produced some of the most unsettling team names.

I bought an extra air cleaner for my living room and now it’s very loud in here but we could all breathe better in minutes. I have been spending days in my bedroom because it was the room with the cleanest air, being less imprisoned is nice. I hope the forecast that the smoke will clear soon turns out to be correct

I keep seeing more and more photographs of human beings showing up in my notifications. The party's over, fellow furries and other cartoon natives of the Internet.

Eternal September has come to us here on the Fediverse, as it must eventually come to every service that grows past a certain point. It's both what we've wanted, and what we dread.

Let us hope that we do not become Twitter in the process of stepping into the same niche.

18 years ago, I helped save Halloween for over a thousand poor kids.

I only just realized now that this is a literally correct interpretation of that time the science museum I volunteered at put out a call for extra help for preparing "goodie bags" for the trick-or-treat event, and nobody but my parents and I showed up. So we were literally the only reason over a thousand poor kids who went to the Science Center because their own neighborhoods weren't safe were able to get candy.

Sore throat and nasal congestion and asthma. I can’t tell if I’m getting a cold or if it’s this air quality

My very first devblog, about the polygamous reptile/monster dating sim game I'm making, called Scales! Please check it out!

ReDeYe is very caffeinated this year and his necktie is amazing

why yes, I did just put on an N95 filter mask to step outside my front door and bring in a grocery order. I’m sorry that unsettled you, random dog-walking lady, but you should have one too. and your dog.

The International 2018 should be starting in a few minutes on www.twitch.tv/dota2ti and I will probably be tooting excitedly about it even though I am a terrible player. Anyone else here watching?

I’m kind of glad for Seattle Smokemageddon, it gives me a reason to stay home and watch with my media center here rather than an iPad in the office. Yeah, boss, working from home today, I have asthma, I can’t wait for a bus during 193 AQI

(that last part is totally 100% true, I swear)

Wario Land 4 deserves an enhanced remake for the Switch.

Meanwhile, in Puget Sound: cliffmass.blogspot.com/2018/08

Summary: buy everything you need for the next week NOW and then stay inside. Buy N95 filter masks and HEPA filter air cleaners.

Having spent the entire day feeling headachey and unwell, I am now feeling better now that I am running out of day
