This might be relevant, Regina.

Didn't even have to push Play, the song just played in my head automatically. Naturally, The Mighty Hercules theme just played immediately after and I'm betting you understand why. 😁

My wife is a hardcore Elfquest fan and she's enjoying the hell out of these. 😁

Probably a good day to remember a small part of the chaos my DiL caused at my SiL's house with a club pack of googly eyes about 8 years ago.

Space Shuttle Endeavor, sitting atop the Shuttle Carrier Aircraft, passes between two trees in the foreground

Watching Artemis II earlier compelled me to try and find this: my one great shot from when my mom pulled me out of school to go to an overpass by NASA Ames/Moffett Field to watch Endeavor fly by, atop the Shuttle Carrier Aircraft, on its way to its final home in L.A.

Unforgettable.

Only one is hiding...for now.

Can confirm! And for some reason, I have two in my yard .. 😁

The first model kit issued of U.S.S. Enterprise, NCC-1701-C, Ambassador class, which Ryan North and I agree is the greatest design in all of Starfleet and is so god (but not the shitty "god" in Star Trek V who could only WISH he could get his non-corporeal mitts on a starship this HOT) damn sexy that I should probably have tagged this as porn or NSFW or something. Yes, the paint bled through the tape a little because I didn't have paintphobic tape back then. Still hot af, tho. 🖖

Dear Ryan,

I am very sorry it has taken me this long to realize that you were on Bluesky and to then immediately follow you. Please accept this photo of something I made many moons ago but is now back on display in my basement and that I know you share an affinity for.

U rule,

Project Hail Mary is going to make a hojillion dollars because it's a visually stunning film based on an original story and it's main audience is people who like good movies. Younger kids? Yep. Older folks? I recommend it. People on a date? Absolutely. Lone person who wants to get lost? Love it.

You can eat from the bird feeders too. No one will stop you.

Scientists discover new heavy proton-like particle at CERN Scientists from the University of Manchester have played a leading role in the discovery of a new subatomic particle at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The particle, known as the Ξcc⁺ (Xi‑cc‑plus)...

My late husband would have been so excited about this news!

A whole bunch of pizzas with the weirdest toppings you could possibly imagine, like romaine lettuce, a cake... Seriously, just imagine something random and edible and picture it on a pizza. It'll serve you far better than any description I type here.

Apparently Brazilians would agree with you.

That sounds delightful. Even the 'fuck' words.

Perhaps especially the 'fuck' words.

But cheese biscuits and a hint of wood smoke do help.

Oh, there's a very, very good reason. We're a stone's throw from living that reason, I dare say...

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.

It doesn't have to be this way.

You're in for a treat. The show continues to get better in the later seasons! Enjoy!

If Weird Al did a parody of your song, congrats on your success.

If Weird Al does a original song in your style, congratulations, you are a badass musician who won the approval and admiration of a musician's musician.

Best. Concept. Art. EVAR. :)

Make shitty art.

This needs to be said more often.

Everything a person creates doesn’t have to be perfectly polished and beloved by the internet masses.

Even if you do it as a job.

Don’t forget to create JUST to create.

Shitty art is also fantastic.

Introduce yourself with 5 concerts you've been to (eclecticism challenge accepted):

Got hooked by the quirky title of a short story -- "Demons in the Fridge" -- and read about ten pages before realizing it was "Demons on the Fringe".

Disappointing.

Also, now I must write a story about demonic appliance possession.
Working titles: "Eggcorcist"..."Devilled Eggs"..."Milkastopheles"

Mount Fuji as seen via a airplane window during the hazy orange navy blue light of sunset.

My wife and I are on a last minute trip to Thailand and we had a brief 5-hour stop in Tokyo. As the plane landed we got to see Mt. Fuji at sunset. The photo does not capture the majesty of the view, nor the beauty of the misty golden light behind the mountain.

Man, I miss MIRVs.

Mega Man 2 front cover. It's a thousand times better than the atrocity known as the Mega Man 1 cover.

Gradius 3 SNES cover showing the Vic Viper spacesuit blasting the daylights out of something.

NES Pro Wrestling cover showing Fighter Hayabusa suplexing a dude that only kinda looks like Star Man.

The Little Big Planet 2 cover. Sackboy is holding a yarn version of Earth.

I give Dr. Wily an annual ass kicking.
Gradius 3 for SNES may have the greatest soundtrack of any video game ever.
Show me another game I can whack dudes with a wrench.
LPB2 is maybe the most fun I've had with a platformer (and you can whack your family with a frying pan that goes *SPANG*).

I remember someone making a good point a few weeks ago about how people view Bluesky as “boring” actually being a good thing

You’re not meant to be addicted to social media 12 hours a day, you’re supposed to see a few posts from people you follow and go about your day

I bet he's just as servile when Trump comes for Greenland. And Canada.
