The TV has always had a background noise function for me. Mom remembers her family getting their 1st color TV. It was always on. I have music if I don't feel like having pictures and I have tasks to accomplish.

A full disc image of Earth, as seen from the Orion Crew Module. The planet is a pale blue, swirling with white clouds and glowing slightly lighter blue in place from reflected light. At lower left, a large brown landmass is Africa, with Spain and Portugal with twinkling lights where the planet curves. At top right, auroras glow in a thin green glow, just barely separated from the planet's surface. Earth is set against the black of space (pic: NASA/R.Wiseman)

More context on this #Artemis II image:

* This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right

* The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon:

Regine does so much for the comics community. Also an Eisner judge this year, but that doesn't pay the bills in our industry. Please do consider tossing her a few bucks if you have the chance.

The US, Israel, and Argentina voted against it. The first two...not shocked. Great Britain and the rest of EU abstained. A fund will be put in place for reparations, but an official amount hasn't been established. For it to get this get to point has a been a fight. The work continues!

The cover of my collection in the center, with Barnes and Noble preorder information at the bottom and top. The sale runs from March 24 through March 26, and the coupon code for members is PREORDERS. The background is a deep red to match the cloaked figure on the cover. And the writing is a gradient of black and gold.

ECCC was fun and I had a wonderful time.

But there was a storm cloud. When I complained about Trump with my white straight cis friends, we were all sincere and concerned.

But I talked with many Trans friends, and it’s so much worse. They are in fear for their lives.

So please, if you can, I’d love to have this thread list pro-Trans everything. Creators, craftspeople, writers, artists, activists…if you or someone you know deserves some celebrating, bring it the fuck on, okay?

Post links if you can.

Buy stuff if you can.

They hate when people stand up.

What we are asking if you live in NYC is that you not passively sit back and expect that things will "happen" or "change" but to be actively involved in making things happen and to change them. Do the very small thing of sending a letter to your Council member & CALL THEM. It's really easy to do.

Are you nominating for the Rhyslings ( @sfpoetry.bsky.social), Nebulas, or Hugos ( @sfwa.org)? I've got poems for you! Links in the thread below.

I'm very proud of the work I did last year, including the poem @kambriel.com and I cowrote. (Spoiler alert: writing poetry with a friend is wonderful!!)
