Today’s not-the-fires Blog Roundup is on the flip. I thought about doing the fun categorization thing, but (a) there aren’t all that many posts, and (b) I’ve gone through right around 1,000 posts just for blog roundup in the last 2 days, not counting any reading I’ve done on my own account. My eyes are a little glazed over. So, it’s just a link dump.

Let me know what I missed in comments, or just use this as an open thread.
