Use the <b> element to draw bats to your text. The <i> element is intended to cause unbearable itching, and should never be used.

5 years later were back on the mastadon checking it otu like its the first day again. This time around it looks a lot more talkative and interesting maybe I'll stick around

@pluralistic pointed to a wonderful post by Jo Walton, which included the following (re how SF fans read SF):

"There are lots of forms of what I call incluing, scattering pieces of information seamlessly through the text to add up to a big picture. The reader has to remember them and connect them together. This is one of the things some people complain about as “too much hard work” and which I think is a high form of fun."

Yes. Yesyesyes. A perfect encapsulation.

why does everything always fall on ops?

projects half-asses their end and ops has to unfuck everything to make sure the process gets restarted on time.

someone cons money out of corporate for some initiative and the onus falls on ops to execute all aspects of the initiative so the con man can get his recognition.

meanwhile, ops still has to keep the wheels from falling off.

LT: Ultimately, y'all are gonna freak the fuck out when this shit happens.

And really, you shouldn't. That would be stupid. The right thing to do is to listen to me when I say: this is going to be public anyway, and all you did was put a keep out sign on the door.
