Having had nightmares pretty much every night starting Sunday night suggests that this is unrelated to staying up and watching the Convention. However, the worst one was last night. Ergo.

    I had been using Steven Colbert and Trevor Noah to follow the conventions, but last night my DVR said PGA Championship Highlights instead of The Late Show, so I missed the whole damn thing. I am hoping I was able to record enough of random shows on Comedy Central to get something of the Daily Show, since they have no idea what their schedule actually is, but I really have no idea. So pissed.

    The Daily Show is pretty good about having full episodes online, I believe.

TIL that some languages apparently have words inherently differentiating one's status as a citizen or resident of the entity versus a member of a particular ethnic or cultural group? I don't quite grasp the whole thing, although I heard the point being made. What's interesting to me is a) that there is such a thing, which seems very revealing of something about a culture that would need such concepts built into the language, and b) that there seem to be people who think it's inaccurate to interpret the word choice as meaningful. Firstly, since languages have all sorts of concepts built into them, many very specific to their primary culture of use, it seems reasonable that such a thing could exist. Not that I would have thought of it before, since I'm not from a culture where that sort of subtlety functions. Secondly, if that is, indeed, the subtlety of the word choices, where one essentially and inherently includes people, and the other excludes, then I'd kind o...

Good News:

Good News: 1. Thruway is open between Buffalo and Rochester. 2. You can get on it going from Buffalo south to Pennsylvania, but you cannot get off of it between Buffalo and Pennsylvania. 3. Almost all the other major highways are open. 4. This is important, because with no highways open, there was no way to truck in food for the grocery stores, or gas for the cars and snow removal equipment and generators, etc. Yes, some places were starting to run low. (Yeah, they removed all the refineries and terminals years ago. Which is why our gas is still well above $3/gal. The closest place we get it from is Akron, OH. Wtf, government. P.S. Good plan! That whole section of I-90 runs along the eastern side of Lake Erie. FYI, that would be the part where they get Lake Effect snow. All winter, every winter. Good strategic planning.) Bad News: 1. Roofs are collapsing all over the place. And we haven't gotten the melt and rain, yet. 2. A lot of communities are days away from being reached by the...
