A strange nonentity from this distance. Governor in my high school into undergrad years, not as overtly hateful as Wilson was later, at least.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 8 May 2018 22:58 (eight years ago)
He became governor when I was like 5 so he is burned on my brain as like "the first governor".

Matt Marks, one of the musicians in Alarm Will Sound, passed away yesterday. I don't really listen to that type of music much so am not really sure what the best rolling thread to post this to would be.

He was mentioned on the serial killer thread, with the fact the the wiki entry on him was well-written, and damned if I didn't read the entire thing at work.

I was at a Toronto comic-con in the 00s and they had Kidder and Erica Durance (the Smallville Lois) next to each other for autographs, and all the guys were queuing for Durance instead of Kidder, and that’s when I realised nerds were dead to me now
