A book called the night that finds us all photographed with an orange cat.
Today’s read. Photographed with Special Agent Elliot Ness to enhance value. @freelibrary.bsky.social has it filed under “sea captains (women)” and “ships (haunted)” which is good enough for me. @johnhornor.bsky.social
So . Looking for this I’ve discovered there are TWO books called whale fall, both form the last 3 years. Is yours about the dead whale washing up or the guy getting swallowed?
I also accidentally bought an AI written book and it was absolutely terrible. The first five sentences i was like “wtf is going on here?” We need to demand automatic refund mechanisms for this, and now.
About two months ago I accidentally bought an AI generated album on iTunes, thinking I was helping out some indie singer songwriter. The songs were good but I got suspicious when all the artwork looked weird. And now the #1 song on iTunes is AI. We’re doomed.
I had this experience discovering a woman on YouTube with millions of followers who simply dumped out her purse and talked about what was in it.

Text fading out
CookingWithRoswell.com ends with the text fading out, because that’s what our memories do. The fear of losing memories is what drove me to photography. #typography #BookDesign #AmWriting
Poster for the movie underworld. A woman with a gun in front of the moon In
Pro tip, if you put on Underworld, turn the sound off, and play Rammstein very loudly it can be a fairly enjoyable 121 minutes.
Some years ago I wrote a guide to running Philly’s best race, #ibxrun10 #BroadStreetRun it’s still valid (though there aren’t any @septaphilly.bsky.social tokens and Ed Rendell might not be there. kylecassidy.livejournal.com/829182.html? See you out there.
It was written by Barry longyear who died in 2025 and wrote many really wonderful stories. My favorite of which is the House of If about a Scifi prison in your brain and an escape artist who tries to break out of a thousand year jail sentence.
After Pope Francis and Victor Orbán JD Vance is probably not getting a lot of party invites.
I legit feel bad for the astronauts, returning to this shitshow…
How the F did I miss the story that we threatened to invade the Vatican unless the pope wised up and backed US policy? This seems like it should be a big story for Christian type people….

That was pretty good. Do you have a favorite collection of his? I don’t think I’ve read him before.
Excellent
An orange cat. A montblanc #FountainPen a cup of #tea and a sunrise are the background to someone in a Bigfoot sweater writing a manuscript.
In the writers tree fort, Special Agent Elliot Ness helping me do edits by keeping a vigilant eye out for bootleggers, opossums and immoral dancing flappers. Where would I be without him? Drunk in some speakeasy no doubt. #5amWritersClub #AmWriting
Glad he got to go out on his own terms. And that’s thanks to Sharon I’m sure.

photo of the earth taken from Artemis ii -- it's big, it's blue, it looks like a marble.
OK. The fact that the EXIF data says this was taken at ISO 51,200 at 1/4 of a second with a 22mm lens is the basis of my new #MoonHoax conspiracy theory. #CapricornONE #photographers #photgraphy #nasa #artemis #artemisii

It’s like all the women who joined the “misogynistic leopards eating peoples faces party” in exchange for a cabinet position are finding out it’s time to feed the leopards at the same time.
For April Fools to be funny or useful one first must live in a time which is quasi predicable and rules based.
Holy smokes.
Thank you! The cameras are really amazing.
