Digging around for #invisiblesun music always leads me to incredible stuff but so far this haunted jazz-ambient-experimental electronica might be the closest match to the atmosphere I'm going for. Even the art is perfect!

Adding to my Invisible Sun playlist and rediscovered the whole dark cabaret scene that had a moment in the early 2ks. Dresden Dolls got most of the hype but it was a whole thing! Completely forgot about this song but its dragging up soooo many memories. #okaygrandpersonletsgetuhome

All this Dr Who-watching has got me thinking “okay but what if it IS an intelligent virus species that is deliberately infecting our minds to propagate and take over the galaxy?”

One of the best things about classic Dr. Who imho is how fantastically uneven it is. Horror of Fang Rock: incredible Invisible Enemy: shrimp virus?? Image of the Fendahl: incredible (so far, I haven't seen this one before)

Every ai-in-education talk I've participated in has sounded like, to some degree, "We don't understand this new tech very well yet, but we all know* it's here to stay, so we should all work very hard to get better at using it!" *have been repeatedly told by tech companies

Game design problem: never getting any actual work done bc every idea leads to a rabbit hole of new things to learn about. Ex, trying to find just the right word for the traveler role in what I’m calling “under these satanic mills strangely” until I come up with something better.

The last comment really got me 😭 It’s simultaneously very cool and very sad to think of a prehistoric teen buried with her favorite toys. Like a kid today being laid to rest with her Pokémon card collection. This girl was loved.

Just a few days left! Personally still hoping that someone comes in with panels on Really Niche Fandom stuff (tm) and/or queer characters (or the lack thereof!) in historical fiction. Like, I know I'm not the only one who was holding out hope for Bridgerton season 4 😒
