I bet if I was a vampire who was also a Prohibition-era rum-runner I’d get a lot of kicks yelling “you’ll never take me alive, coppers!”

They Might Be Giants fukkin’ rocked my socks. Big adventure journey down to Portland, screeching up to the venue with no dinner, all worth it to join a thousand folks singing “Doctor Worm” with their whole hearts.

I’m only halfway through, but They Might Be Giants put on a hell of a show.

No real spoilers, but I was ten minutes into the Doctor Who finale when A Thing happened, and then the Doctor said a line to a person, and I had to go have a little sob. It's such a strange season of a strange show, and part of that is the way it's being deeply earnest (and deeply queer). Love it.

I suppose self-indulgent birthdayposting should come to an end soon; I was born just after midnight in the Central time zone, so I have about fifteen minutes left of the First Day of 40. It’s been a pretty good one, all things considered. Look at the swag pile!

We’ve entered into a bold new era of Lara scratching her nose and then going “ow! Fuck!”

Okay, so, what if I celebrated the first day of Pride and the last day of my 30s by spontaneously heading out and getting a nose piercing?

Dolls, I got my eyebrows threaded for the very first time yesterday, and I gotta say: the ratio of "time and money spent" to "emitting a little gasp of delight when I see myself in the mirror" is just bananas. Would recommend.

Gosh, Ratthi really is God’s Dumbest Soldier, huh? (Loving Murderbot so much, and am pleased with their imagine-spot alternate takes on the book’s more abstract periods of hacking and counter-hacking).

Sometimes, an author creates a world where gay couples are not just normalized, but expected. Like. I’m reading a Regency fantasy, and everyone takes it as given that the town’s witch is in want of a wife. I get how that might appeal. But. I’m off-put. It’s sapphic, but it’s not queer, is it?

Another day, another trans person on Bluesky who I am quietly unfollowing because they are having an entirely justified public breakdown but I just fucking can't with that right now; yeah it's bad, I get it, you are not wrong, but I just can't. It's hard enough to get myself to the end of each day.

My daughter, Miley, told a joke that I would like to share. — Her: Knock knock! My wife: Who’s there? Her: Miley! My wife: Miley who? Her, aghast: … you’ve known me for over ten years!

Murderbot! Murderbot! Does whatever a murder ought! It can kill, since it’s free! It would rather just watch TV! Look out! Here comes the Murderbot!

I don’t particularly give a shit about Alex Graham, but anyone who says there is a dearth of “good art” in any medium is, at best, very bad at looking for art.

Hey has anyone invented a coffee grinder that automatically gives the beans a little spritz of water when it gets activated? Because there are coffee nerds with disposable income who would spend one thousand dollars on such a thing if it were heavy and matte black enough.

Don’t worry. We’ve got his back.

I am proposing a radical new Body Mass Index scale, and it works like this: if your body has mass, your BMI is 1, and if it doesn’t (because you are a hologram, or ghost) then your BMI is 0. I think the advantages are obvious.
