The BBC’s library of classic sci-fi sounds is now available to sample.

Just discovered that there's playable versions of Centipede and Asteroids on the AARP web site and now I need to sit down and dissolve into a pile of dust www.aarp.org/games/catego...

Oh my god. They removed "transgender" from the page about Trans woman Sylvia Rivera's page at the National Park service. "Sylvia Rivera began fighting for gay and _____ rights" WOW.

Our town's democratic committee vice chair just dropped off their inauguration weekend service project--Valentine's gift bags for the queer kids coming in for tonight's rainbow program. A little light in a lot of dark. <3

There are more anti-trans bills than there are trans athletes. This is a solution in search of a problem. A villain for the GOP to distract Americans from the fact Musk is stealing all of our money. www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...

Good night from Lacey.

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

You know what would be great is if these weird assholes could get to know exactly one trans person and see that they're just people trying to get by like everyone else

Who's having a Day? All of us?! Wow! Can't go under it, can't go around it...guess we better go on through. Keep going, folks. Keep going.

so like if the doomsday clock hits midnight do we still have to go to work or what's the plan

I continue to add to this list. I also have removed training info that is now outdated.

As chilling a meme as I have seen. But I agree.

Ahhhhhhhhhh Nosferatu. Loved it. Perfection. No notes. Viewing order for next marathon: Nosferatu (Murnau), Nosferatu (Herzog), Shadow of the Vampire (Merhige), Nosferatu (Eggers).

Hey hey! I arrived at work to find there is a gas leak and we are closed to the public until the afternoon. No big deal. And maybe, just maybe, the heat will be fixed by tomorrow. 🙃

Thank you to the USPS passport agent who urged us to get my daughter a passport card as well as a passport. That federal i.d. is good for a decade, amen.

Drama

My kids were thoughtful to each other today. It was spontaneous and unscripted and I am grateful.

We do not got this. Day 3 off and only now able to communicate a little. Wishing everyone the emotional support familiar they need.

David Lynch gave us the language we needed to better articulate the indescribable strangeness of our shared reality. “Lynchian” is so overused because it’s a viscerally understandable word without any known synonyms. I can’t imagine a more beautiful artistic legacy than that.

Currently sitting in someone’s living room waiting for Sadurn to play. Surreal. Great, but surreal.

"Don't have heroes" ok got it, but is it too much to hope that the writers who help make our dreams are decent people? Grady Hendrix better not break my heart. I have hand sold his work to large numbers of readers.

See you at HELLMOUTH 🔥 Join us as Dr Hood discusses individual methods of belief formation with Lucien, Melankali and Koroc. How might these methods and our opinion change when confronted with evidence that conflicts our current views? See you Tuesday! 🐐 🧠 📚

signed up for autistic burnout course, too burned out to start.

Haircuts and driving practice: not a bad Saturday! Cats felt left out though.

How can I recoup enough energy from this short break to go back to my work routine and not burn out before February? Hmm.

My 14-year-old is reading a prose novel. He has read countless graphic novels over vacation, but is currently on his second words-only book. Vision therapy works. 🥺

Happy 26th! Time for reading.

Unmasked, I wish y’all a very merry Christmas. If you don’t celebrate, I wish you whatever you celebrate and/or peace. ❤️

From my Wife. IYKYN.

Kids and I had a Christmas Eve drive to see the lights and have hot chocolate. 18-year-old drove and got some night driving experience. We enjoyed each other’s company. What a lovely evening.

Wrapping helper

Pre-Christmas Eve nap was accompanied by three (3) cats. Highly recommended.

Duchess in Repose. May she bless your timeline.

Sprained his dignity

I have a big ask from our local partner shelter. Beautiful, sweet blind cat Helen has had three approved adopters, but when the time comes to take her home, none of them have showed up. Can we find Helen a loving home at last? She’s been there since she was a baby! www.petfinder.com/cat/helen-71...

How many times do I type a reply to a post and then erase it, thinking it wasn't worth reading? Many. Is this because I don't think I deserve the space and time, or because it really wasn't worth reading? Usually, it truly didn't add to the conversation.

This is a great book in general. Well worth your time.
