I'd say 80s. But okay.

I'm not a big fan of Aaron Taylor-Johnson. He ranks somewhere between Channing Tatum and John David Washington in terms of working actors who can't act.

As a fan of Star Trek since 1966, I have to say I have no interest in seeing a TOS reboot. There are plenty of other stories to tell in that universe. Tell those.

Of course the military has evidence of UFOs! Ask yourself when they started? They started when war became impossible to fight without total global annihilation. When we could no longer justify defense budgets. When the military needed another threat to continue to take our money.

TIL Alien: Covenant's Katherine Waterston is Sam Waterston's daughter. And now that I see it, I can't imagine how I missed it.

Saw this at the local home depot yesterday. Guess he was going for "One Shot," but the coiled "Don't Tread on me" snake gave it a whole other read.

This is how I command a Starship…

This post has held up.

If "ICE" agents appear to take a person you love, including yourself, and they refuse to show a judicial warrant and they refuse to identify themselves and provide badges, names, and badge numbers—you have no way to tell if you're being kidnapped and you should be within your rights to fire on them.

U.S. Politics has started to give me writer's block (something I've never suffered from) not because I'm depressed, but because it's hard to plot out the future from here. We're on a knife's edge and could go in two mutually exclusive directions. Writing science fiction is hard right now.

BLE Be Less Efficient.

This is kidnapping and it's illegal.

Post a trio of awesomeness

I have Rainy Day Affective Disorder.

I've been using Discord on and off for over 5 years and I find it miserable. It depends on the community. One community may be jumping, another might be a ghost town. But the UI/UX is pretty bad. It's a shame that so many writerly things are tied up in it.

Drop something WINGED

I stumbled upon this B&W, Japanese dubbed, Star Wars Prequel clip and now I only ever want to watch the prequels this way. www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_Um...

Make your bed. Brush your teeth. Drink fluids. Create.

Fascism is when the entire nation is run as a prison.

Yes, you read that right - it's 40 THOUSAND years old.

Post a show ✨older✨ than you are.

The people who find LLMs useful are the ones who see reading as burdensome, who see paragraphs as dense solid blocks of text, and who see books as bricks. Those of us who find each word of value, who find each sentence revelatory, and who find wealth in a story—we're the ones who see no need for AI.

Share the picture of Melissa and Mark Hortman. Remember THEIR names. Because the piece of garbage that killed them should not be more recognizable than they are. We know this. And yet.

Repost with three things you can be caught preaching/bitching about on Bluesky: People neglecting to add Alt Text. People posting GenAI images. People who are still on X or Meta.

Sometimes, I just feel like complaining. 😅

They were all shit-faced drunk.

I find Google's search, news and YouTube is better when I sign out of my accounts and experience without all the baggage the algorithm heaps on me. It even hides the AI overview when I'm not signed in. It's a noticeably better experience.

It’s hard to escape the dawning realization that part of the goal of Google’s AI Overview is to simply eradicate the concept of anyone else having any kind of website at all. Why click on a link & explore when Google told you the answer & you didn’t know it was wrong?

I just bought a Rand McNally Road Atlas. I'm going to stop using Apple Maps or Waze or any digital nav app. It may take me 20 years, but I'd like to reverse my dependence on the internet and the tech companies.
