Excited to share a ginger gold with the author of Black River Orchard @chuckwendig.bsky.social. It's always a pleasure to meet someone else who isn't afraid to pick a random fruit off a tree they just found.

so i guess this morning i am just kind of meditating on the fact that when you reject AI as a creator you are not just bringing things back to the baseline, you are actually PUSHING in the other direction. you are opening space for human joy and creation and even income and that is so cool

I would definitely put Hot Fuzz on my list of "movies that are perfect."
Did exactly what it came to do. Hit hard. Hilarious. No jokes wasted, and EVERYTHING is better the second and even better the hundredth time you see it.

Opinion | We’re Living in a Tick Nightmare. It’s Time to Go to War.
With ticks, we’ve barely begun to fight back. The longer we wait, the more territory they will claim across both our geographic and psychic maps.

i really wish veggies would be the star of the show more often in western cuisine. like, there are so many more flavors and textures, and unfathomably delicable experiences that are achievable through a well prepared vegetable than could ever be achieved with meat alone

Saw this on FB. If you’ve ever enjoyed Aqua Teen, please help if you can.
Someone who’s such an integral part of one of Adult Swim’s most beloved shows deserves much better than this.

it is in absolutely everybody’s best interests to develop some hobbies aside from Phone
Someone actually did a study a while back that showed the most effective way to get women out of TERF groups wasn’t people trying to change their minds, it was them getting literally any benign hobby, like learning other languages or taking up needlework
You know who isn't getting radicalized? Guys who do ships in a bottle. Embrace model-building and avoid the pitfalls of right-wing extremism

Opening up a bottle of soda to discover I'd won a free 20oz bottle could up my serotonin so high right now. Flipping the cap to reveal nothing shows the vastness of what we have lost to modern advertising methods.

On this 6th anniversary of #covid19 , I miss all the things we did when we actually had time to spend at home. I silently mourn making pretzels and bread while 3D printing PPE, visiting friends islands on ACNH and donating stuff to their museums, and figuring out how to do drive in movie in a field.

Had to update my professional bio for a conference presentation. Instead of a job history, I put my most interesting, albeit ridiculous and unrelated, publications instead of the titles of other presentations/ publications. I hope people show up because the subject is cool. Do people care about bio?

Rod Serling is probably the coolest guy of the 20th century. Looked cool, sounded cool, fought Nazis, hated John Wayne, wrote the screenplay for Planet of the Apes. Honestly dunks all the hell over any male influencer guy.
