I'm halfway through watching Section 31. It is inaccurate to label this Star Trek.

"Tele-present wind (Mars version)" by David Bowen www.dwbowen.com/news These dried plant stalks were filmed on Earth being moved by gadgets responding to data from NASA's Perseverance rover about Martian wind. In other words, these stalks are moving as if they're being blown around by wind on #Mars

Long overdue.

Elon Musk has admitted that he pays people to play video games on his accounts

Since a lot of folks aren't going to Facebook, a little something I wrote in 2014 that seems especially apropos at this moment. The Rules of the New Aristocracy.

Indeed...

Kyle MacLachlan pays tribute to David Lynch "I will miss him more than the limits of my language can tell and my heart can bear. My world is that much fuller because I knew him and that much emptier now that he’s gone ... Thank you for everything"

Kyle MacLachlan's statement:

Lynch is gone and Trump will be here in less than a week.

Thanks to all for your kind remembrances on this awful day. Words will come later. Only feelings at the moment. Mourn and remember him but don’t forget to celebrate too. We won’t see his like again. The man from another place has gone home. #DavidLynch #TwinPeaks

Martin Scorsese reflects on the loss of David Lynch:

I have watched Megalopolis. My experience was more positive than the reviews I've read and the word-of-mouth I've heard. I would definitely watch it again.

Reading a lot lately about the posthumous publication of Harlan Ellison's white whale, THE LAST DANGEROUS VISIONS, a project hitting shelves 50 years late. This is the best of the pieces I've read — an analysis of Harlan, a history of the project, a fan appreciation, and a tour of his wild home.

I fill boxes.

Anyone who doubts the cyclical nature of fighting tyranny and fascism… watch or re-watch BABYLON 5. It feels astonishingly prescient about current events — painfully so — except @straczynski.bsky.social based so much of it on WWII and historical events. Let it also serve as a model of resistance.
