apologies if I accidentally deleted your comment just now

I had a whole cluster of spam comments in my comment queue just now, and without checking the entire list to see whether there were any legitimate comments in there, I clicked "select all comments" and deleted the entire crop. If you left a comment, and it hasn't appeared by now (check this post's date/time stamp to verify when "now" is), I apologize for the accidental deletion, and I'm afraid you'll have to rewrite your comment. I always find such situations psychologically interesting because they force the commenter to get self-critical and decide whether the lost comment is worth rewriting. I've been in situations where I've written a long comment, suffered an accidental deletion, and decided not to rewrite because fuck that.

READ THIS BEFORE COMMENTING!

All comments are subject to approval before they are published, so they will not appear immediately. Comments should be civil, relevant, and substantive. Anonymous comments are not allowed and will be unceremoniously deleted. For more on my comments policy, please see this entry on my other blog.

AND A NEW RULE (per this post): comments critical of Trump's lying must include criticism of Biden's lying on a one-for-one basis! Failure to be balanced means your comment will not be published.
