@Digital Mark λ ☕️ 🎃 🧙 👻 I might not raise an eyebrow if someone used "sneaked" but if it's me speaking my mind would go straight to "snuck".

I think.

> The past and past participle snuck is primarily found in North American English, where it originated in the late 19th century as a dialectal form. It is still regarded as informal by some, but its use appears to be increasing in frequency and acceptability. It is occasionally found in British, Irish and Australian English, too, though regarded as an American form.

TIL! It's fun when (specifically Germanic?) languages go the opposite direction from the more commonly done simplification and *adds* strong verb forms.

He is also "Dr. East" in this thing, in which Mark Hamill plays a CIA agent (not the main character). Another Japan-inspired Hollywood film from the early 1990s!

I was looking at non-Star Trek work by Jeffrey Combs and I discovered that he was "Spectator/Prole #1" in en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robot_Jo… where fellow recurring Star Trek actor Gary Graham plays the main role.

A Hollywood mecha live action from 1990? Sounds awful. I have to see it now.

@Kermode I could have created a folder for super important email and filtered electric bills to go there.

But that would have required me to know that I would be getting electric bills in my email to begin with.

@Kermode Paper bills now applied for.

If it arrives in my paper mailbox it is the only thing in the paper mailbox. If it arrives in my email it is a drop in the ocean.

I searched for the electricity company's name and it turns out I have been receiving a bill every two months.

With this ringing endorsement of course I had to listen to the talk.

It is a great talk. Doctorow is channeling new levels of righteous and justified anger, coupled with real hope.
