This is how I feel about Sandman Episode 6, with the addition that it wouldn't have been my award, but an award for everyone who made it. That the episode was deemed mysteriously ineligible just makes the 2023 Hugo Awards feel shady.

Although we're all making fun of DeSantis's humiliation, we shouldn't forget that his anti-vax crusade — in service of his doomed run — probably killed thousands of people

A delightful conclusion to months of watching Ron DeSantis just absolutely eat shit in every possible way

ernest hemingway's writing process was fascinating. whenever he got stuck, he would pick up his switch and play a game of rocket league, but it usually wasn't a ranked match. instead he'd play in casual mode, or even offline against bots, so he could quickly put it down should an idea come to him

If we could could only see cats in zoos we'd be like "OMGGG THEY'RE LIKE TINY TIGERS AND PANTHERS I WANT ONE SOOOO BAD" but since we see them all the time we tend to take them for granted. Don't make that mistake. Marvel at your tiny tiger every day.

Bluesky needs more chess chat. 😔 The tournament in Wijk aan Zee starts today and I think the only conversations are about the XR protests against the Tata Steel sponsorship. Anyway, Ding over Nepo by a half-point, probably.

The best secret Santa gift I ever received (and one of the best gifts period) was this art print that is so accurately within my nerdy venn diagram overlap area it is shocking. #LotR #Mario

here’s your regular reminder that the most hilariously awful live performance of Come On Eileen exists on YouTube — on Dexy’s Midnight Runners official page! You owe it to yourself to watch this.
