Now to see if they do anything about it.

Which I couldn't attend because I don't have a Microsoft 365 account. The city should reconsider using Teams for such events if they can't admit guests who have managed to avoid knuckling under to Microsoft's shakedowns.28 Oct 2026 22:36 +0000at://did:plc:ffbswkdoggrseo7zdiyj46p3/app.bsky.feed.post/3myxsstfxrs2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/vacca.bsky.social/post/3myvcpwxjrs2bBluesky has four kinds of users.

(The good news is, since nobody has ever managed to *play* Rifts, their chance of success is small.)

But they clearly made a terrible mistake, because the movie in question is The Craft.03 Oct 2026 00:55 +0000at://did:plc:ffbswkdoggrseo7zdiyj46p3/app.bsky.feed.post/3mwwohin6kc2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/vacca.bsky.social/post/3mwegbpx5o22pOf this list, I've only seen Parks & Rec and Gilmore Girls all the way through. (Also the first three seasons of The Good Place and Stranger Things, at least one episode of another four shows, and bits of another five.) Gosh, I wonder how Television came to be my worst category in #LearnedLeague.
