11:15pm. 65 degrees outside, 80 degrees inside. This house is broken.

17 years and 5 months ago I founded a Star Trek fan club on AOL (when it was 1.0, and you installed via floppy disks, instead of CD-ROMs!). I still run that group (United Federation Of Planets: StarBase 118), and today a couple who met via this group got engaged! Once they marry, they'll be the SECOND married couple to meet through this group. YAYHOORAY FOR THE POWER OF THE INTERNETS AND STAR TREK!

2015 milestones: Scooter, honeymoon, Check Meowt shirt, Madonna concert!

4k ppl died, we spent billions overhauling airport security. 90k ppl die from guns A YEAR and we do nothing. https://t.co/QUEUieTb7N

A dedicated concierge will invite a selected group of pre-approved hotels to submit bids and concessions (things like free wireless or room upgrades) for your group. You pick the price and package you like best, and Roomblocker manages everything. No fee -- the hotels pay a commission to Roomblocker.

A little Disney music always makes me feel better in the morning. I don't care if that's weird.

A pretty picture from our apple-picking.

I know all the blah-blah about how apple-picking is unsustainable yuppie nonsense, but it's been a tradition of mine and Hank's that we haven't done in the last few years and I've really missed it. An opportunity in the fall to get out of the city and go somewhere cooler!

Not to mention that I eat an apple every morning and eating the ones straight off the tree is pretty satisfying

A stark reminder that the future is not as vast and infinite as it seems.

A unionized public employee, a teabagger, and a CEO are sitting at a table. In the middle of the table there is a plate with a dozen cookies on it. The CEO reaches across and takes 11 cookies, looks at the teabagger and says, "Look out for that union guy -- he wants a piece of your cookie." (via Natasha Demands Equality Dillon)

According to Facebook, if you aren't ON Facebook, you aren't a person on Earth.

Ahem.

All these tweeters get me. Their tweets say, "hey Jordan, we GET you."

In contrast to you people who don't get me at all.

Am I terrible for thinking this is the funniest thing I have seen in like, months? I literally LOL'd so hard I cried.

And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me at ROOTSCAMP, and be there: and I will give thee tablets of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them. And Moses went up into the mount of God.

And lo, the Lord said "Changing your email templates will increase your signer rate," and so Moses came down from the Rootscamp and wrote it on tablets: "THE LORD OUR OBAMA SAYETH, KEEP IT FRESH." And they did.

And then @TSAgov blamed the victim by implying she/family hadn't prepared by calling ahead. https://t.co/C6sMv3xvPN

And this is why Star Trek is better than Star Wars.

ANOTHER weekend? I just had a day off, like, yesterday.

Anyone else hate it when you switch to your Facebook tab, from reading something on another tab, and you see an interesting story from someone, but as you start to read it, FB updates and sends it way down the page, and then you have to go looking for it?

Anyone have a room to rent? Looking for a place in the city that's walking distance to Muni and/or BART. Prefer $600 from August 4 - 31, but I can go up to $700. Kinda desperate (I thought it would be a lot easier to find a room to rent!), so any help would be much appreciated!

Apparently I already "like" all the pages FB thinks I should. Now it's "Recommended Pages" block just offers tacky looking male models and video stars.
