Wow. Republican and Independent state legislative leaders in Alaska write to the state's all Republican Congressional delegation with a dire warning:

I highly recommend a visit to these beautiful places if you’re able to go. I’ve been to Chepstow Castle and Tintern Abbey and would go back in a heartbeat. Free admission this Saturday for St. David’s Day! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 www.visitmonmouthshire.com/blog/read/20...

Happy to be the 1,607th 😎 on @BackerKit for Mercedes Lackey's "Grandmaster" - A Deluxe Valdemar Anthology. mercedes-lackey-s-grandmaster-a-deluxe-valdemar.backerkit.com/community_sh...

@swierczy.bsky.social Happy Birthday, Duane!! 🎂🎉🥳🥃

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

Just THREE MONTHS until my lifelong dream project, DC's MISFITS OF MAGIC, comes out, and every month I try to give you one reason I think you should buy it! The reason this month? Because this is the book I would have LOST my mind over when I was a kid, and I really think your kids will, too.

I just just called both Senator Warner and Senator Kaine via the app to urge them to vote against the confirmation of RFKjr. It’s very easy to do. You can use their script or not. I also subscribed to the 5 Calls Newsletter. We have to make our voices heard! buttondown.com/5calls

#UK #StarTrek and #12Monkeys fans! I'm organising a fan campaign of contacting UK cons and asking them to invite @realtoddstashwick.bsky.social while he's in the country. Everything you need to know is at stashwickcondrive.neocities.org with first contact being on 1st Feb. Please repost and share!

How do we mute #hashtags and words on here? I poked around a bit but didn’t find it. I’m glad I watched #Section31 last night since someone is posting details about the movie this morning.

TIL that some Star Trek comics are available on KindleUnlimited 🖖🏼 In case you’re interested.

Friends, if you take in a stray animal, PLEASE have it scanned for a chip. This is the third time in a week that someone has come into the shelter with an animal that was 'theirs' that was actually chipped and registered to someone else who had been desperately missing that animal for YEARS.

Do you have people in your inner circle who are pinching every penny and can’t handle another monthly bill, even a smallish one? Do you have some means? Ask if you can put their renter’s insurance on your card to make sure it’s always paid up. Like $15/month to make sure a friend has a safety net

Renters insurance generally covers your stuff. When our airbnb was burgled in Costa Rica on vacation, my renters covered my stuff, money stolen, a broken phone screen and even car keys/reprogramming. Genuinely worth it, and I am skeptical of the insurance industry at large.

Happy New Year! 🎆🖖🏼 What’s that saying? “Start as you mean to go forward” or something like that. So. I’m starting (again)!

I love my new Christmas decoration: Santa relaxing in his pjs. He makes me smile. 😃

Lucy likes the new tree skirt. As expected, she was on it 15 seconds after it went down.

#Oathbreakers is "historical writing at its finest." - @chicagorevbooks.bsky.social. A top-10 new release in history from Amazon Books. It's got swords, sex, witchcraft, demons, betrayals, one irritating dude named Bernard, and the fate of Charlemagne's empire hanging in the balance. Out today!

My kind of Friday night 🤩

Doing historical research isn’t just an intellectual enterprise; it’s emotional and embodied. I legit almost threw up earlier this morning while researching etymology related to the year 1712. If you’re a historian and/or do archival research, how do you handle the SHOCK of revelation?

To read or not to read, that’s not a real question.

Hey Trek friends: Star Trek: The Next Generations complete series box set is on sale for $99.99 on Amazon. That’s the lowest I’ve seen it in ages.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens. Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”

Not sure if bluesky is ready for BAT-TREK but it’s my birthday today so here’s my gift to y’all 😘

When Sgt. Pepper finished his service tour he used his G.I. bill to get through med school & later became Dr Pepper not everyone knows this

Good morning ☀️

Don't bring into your home if you have cats: Poinsettias Mistletoe Holly Lilies Lilies are bad for dogs too but they are LETHAL FOR CATS. Don't even touch them if you have a cat.
