For topics unrelated to recent threads. (No Covid, in particular.) Do not bring your fights from other threads here, either.

Play nicer folks. This is just a comments section, what you say in it changes nothing large, but how you act to other commenters matters because they are people.

I’d rather not bring back pre-approval comments moderation; among other things often you’ll have to wait 12+ hours for comment approval or dismissal. Sometimes longer.

To avoid off-topic comments on the admin thread below, and because I don’t think I’ll be posting anything non-admin related today, I’m putting up the open thread a day early this week. Use it for comments unrelated to recent posts!

Since this blog started, I’ve used Feedburner to send out emails. Google bought it and recently shut it down. I’ve transferred over to a different service (follow.it) and, in the process, I messed up and entered the comments feed as well, so those of you e-mail subscribe will have received an email with recent comments.

SORRY!

It should be all fixed now, no more comments (you’re welcome to come to the blog and read them — some comments are great, but as I moderate very lightly, some are very unpleasant -— you have been warned!) and emails should go out once a day, if there’s a new post, about 8pm EST.
