“Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you walk into an open sewer and die" - Mel Brooks.

That shows the cruel side of comedy.

If I ever won the lottery the money would be gone by the time I was dead cause I'd give it to friends and causes. The benefit to having the life I've had is that I know exactly what I need to be comfortable and happy, and it's not a billion dollars. I just want to write and garden and rescue dogs

Acoustic sheep headphones and an audiobook with a timer.

Weed gummies. At 42 changed my life after trying sleep meds and such. Fewer side effects. I can always time my bedtime now. Only reason I could risk a 9-5. I don’t stay up all night anymore. A little late in life but game changer.

Have the exact same issue. I used to have to take motion sickness medicine to watch or play any video games. It helps!

Really enjoyed @tobiasbuckell.bsky.social's latest short story collection, ZEN AND THE ART OF STARSHIP MAINTENANCE. It's a gem of a book, well worth your time if you like smart SF.

The evolution of Steve Albini: ‘If the dumbest person is on your side, you’re on the wrong side�... The long read: Steve Albini was long synonymous with the indie underground, playing in revered bands and recording albums by the Pixies, PJ Harvey and Nirvana. He also often seemed determined to offen...

1. A kind of remarkable profile of (Bluesky's Own) Steve Albini, and his progression away from being an asshole all the time.

“The one thing I don’t want to do is say: ‘The culture shifted – excuse my behaviour.’ It provides a context for why I was wrong at the time, but *I was wrong at the time.*”

*taps the sign*

School libraries don't need you to donate copies of banned books. They need you to step up and run for the school board so the books don't get banned in the first place.
