Like the last line of a Twilight Zone episode.

I will never understand the journalists who continue to give CS the time of day.

Doing a thread showing some of the graves of Looney Tunes related people because I’m weird. First is Mel Blanc!

You are correct, and yeah I can see how that might be an issue.

I hear you. We use a tablespoon-sized scoop, but a soup spoon might do it (with some dexterity).

On the high side of medium (b/c flames and plastic handle). I would go 3/4 the way with electric and see how that works.

I mean, we use a gas range, so it heats up fairly quickly. It certainly would be slower on an electric grill, but only, like, by five minutes?

We use the exact same model and I've never heard anyone suggest putting hot water in the reservoir. We just use Brita water from the fridge.

Resident associations increasingly have a persuasive role in city politics, yet lack any internal accountability (ie a single self-interested party can "represent" a neighbourhood on a crucial issue). Would it not be time for such associations to be registered, so that there is more transparency?

Heisenberg & SchrΓΆdinger get pulled over for speeding.
Cop: D'you know how fast you were driving?
Heisenberg: No but I know exactly where I am.
Cop: It was 118mph.
H: Thanks, now I'm lost.
Cop [inspects car, opens boot]: Were you aware there's a dead cat back here?
SchrΓΆdinger [angrily]: We are now!

My IT skills are meh, but I'm happy I was able to setup an IP-block for an annoying site crawler/scraper that was turning into a nemesis.

Reviews.

Reviews are free AND they are a gift to authors that can keep on giving (i.e., exposure, marketing, algo boosts, etc.)

Please, give the gift of reviews to your authors this holiday season. It really can make a difference!

Today I came across @ivanamato.bsky.social's account. Ivan is a crystal photomicrographer, and his page is full of amazing photos like this, that currently have no interactions beyond mine. I also really like the descriptions, and the size comparisons given in many of them. Go check them out!

I blame the flabbiness of Seasons 2 and 3, so trying to wrap everything up now feels like someone is playing the episode at 1.5x speed. No room for authentic connection btwn characters.

We need to kill the worship of efficiency.

We have two news channels instead of hundreds of thousands of papers and outlets. More efficient? Absolutely. And it's terrible.

Doctor's offices that are all video? Very efficient. Super shitty.

Efficiency is the enemy. We're so scared of friction.

Did you or anyone you know dance on Soul Train in the 1970s?

Looking for folks to interview for some book research
