Working on a script about ancient Egypt and I must now reckon with the reality that I'm incapable of spelling "pharaoh" correctly on the first (or usually the second) try. FML.

I found a handwritten diary from 1815 where a woman from New England fell in love with another woman. Someone, probably a member of her family, scratched out the name of her lover so deeply it left holes in the paper. Couldn’t put it in my dissertation because it was off topic. #TalkAboutHumanities

I'm annoyed with people who think that doing in-depth research means doing some really good Google searches.

And an AI slop thumbnail, because of course.

During wartime, a man drops out of college and travels to a distant planet to join a peace protest movement, where he falls in love with a woman from his planet’s enemy.

My husband told me I had to stop acting like a flamingo. I had to put my foot down.

Socialism is good and the US would benefit heavily from it.

I’m tired of seeing articles about Trump. I’m tired of Trump.

A McCoy biopic focusing on the post-TOS years where he has a full beard, bell bottom jump suit and medallions. The final scene is where he is forcibly beamed aboard the Enterprise at the beginning of TMP.

Great picture!

Here's another article that will win me no friends, but I honestly think is true. The Democratic Party deserves a significant amount of--perhaps most of--the blame for the termination of American democracy, which they stood by and allowed to happen.

Have you seen this before? It’s a classic.

Donald Trump is insane. Why isn't this a bigger issue? A major U.S. Presidential nominee is obviously suffering from a severely incapacitating mental illness. Why aren't we talking about this?

I called it 2 years ago but no one listened to me.

Yesterday I found a set of reading glasses I lost back in December. Thought I lost them in my nephew’s car but they were in a box in my office all the time.

Celebrate small victories! 🎉

Is the Marky Markburger made with real Mark Wahlberg meat?

In the 1990s, in my early 20s, I wrote numerous episodes of an "Elvira"-style horror movie TV series which actually made it to air and ran for nearly a full season. I had no writing credits whatsoever to my name at the time.

“All authors are using AI now!”

Not true! A lot of us just drink.

The planet Jupiter with its cloud bands seen in shades of pink, rusty red, blue, and purple. The Great Red Spot is a deep navy blue, surrounded by bands and swirls of pink, and light blue.

Hubble's ultraviolet view of Jupiter shows the planet in hues of pink and blue.

jupiter wishes you a very happy trans day of visibility 🏳️‍⚧️

We're tired of CEOs who "hear our concerns" about AI but still elect to ram it down our throats anyway despite those very concerns that you pretend to hear. You either allow AI to poison this platform or you don't. Your users overwhelmingly don't want it. Why pretend there's a middle ground?

This man probably has grandchildren. Can you imagine the mortification they must feel at being related to this person?

I hope you're right, I've got a space opera coming out this year!

Oswald acted alone.

Somebody tried to leave a comment on my YouTube page suggesting that I do a video about the huge "leftist conspiracy" to destroy America. I know it sounds like they were trolling but I think the person was actually sincere.

Every time right wingers try to “unskew” history it turns out to be a massive and embarrassing self-own.

I think Neville was drunk! A bit too much holiday tipple?

Really useful.

Toward a theory on the death of the Republican Party. Both of the major U.S. political parties are dead, or soon will be. Here are my thoughts on how the GOP destroyed itself.

I wrote a pretty frank article on the effective death of the Republican Party. It goes way back before Trump. For site members, but free to sign up.

a man in a yellow shirt is sitting in a chair holding a cup and pointing Alt: The Leonardo DiCaprio "Recognize!" meme.

Absolutely. Well said.

Show someone who absolutely rocks a hat and isn't Indiana Jones.

I thought Chuck Norris was immortal. I am gutted. 😭
