Sunset blocked by buildings but the clouds above have bright edges and radiant lines of light around them.

Great thread with resources for donations to help people impacted by Helene in TN & NC. Please read.

RIP Maggie Smith. You played a lot of roles since then, but I first remember you as Nanna Wendy in “Hook” so I’m hoping you’re off past the second star to the right now

single best kitchen purchase i have made in years is a large, fancy toaster oven. it’s basically just a mini-oven and it is invaluable for all sorts of things

My BIGGER & WEIRDER tour is hitting North America next summer! We’re back to doing a full-production high-energy show and playing the hits… plus a few things we’ve never played live before!

Presale starts tomorrow at 10 am local, so head on over to weirdal.com to register for a code!

Alas, poor Yorick. I knew him, Horatio.

Off to the bad place to see if Taylor was even at the game, since wide open Travis gets ignored.

Librarians and booksellers, if you're dong a Banned Books Week display, I better not see any of the classics up there. Use this opportunity to discuss with your communities the attacks on marginalized identities and children and young adults.

accidentally enabling the ADB watchdog is the most annoying possible thing to diagnose.

A man holds up an off-pink veiny orb and says to another man "stick your fingers in the flesh bowling ball." The man sticks his fingers into its anus-like holes and the bowling ball goes "UUUUUUUUUNNNGHH." The man bowls with it and the bowling ball continues to moan. It hits some penis-like flesh pins, who upon contact also start moaning "unngh holy shit, unnngh Jesus."

Well I feel like a dumb dumb.

I'm rendering my next video away from the office so my laptop isn't docked. Powered by its own power brick it's easily rendering twice as fast it does on the dock. Looking like 3X faster than real time.

Twenty days until I can get into the new apartment. 🆒

Sixty-nine days until I am finally absolutely unquestionably free of the current place. 🆓

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #519,852!

"AI isn't going away."

That might be true. But the AI you're talking about, my dude, is a massive capital investment in servers and crew and programmers and if it's no longer filled with the promise of profit, it will be dropped like the hottest of potatoes.

Whether “science is political” depends on how you define “science” & “political” but elections absolutely affect prospects for the progress of scientific research/applications as well as the ability of scientists to work so even in the *narrowest* possible view, institutions of science have a stake

Lovely people!

Several years ago, I wrote a book called MIDDLEGAME. I still think it's one of the best things I've ever written. It's about math and language and alchemy and sibling relationships and breaking things and fixing things and growing up.

Regional memberships of the Teamsters breaking from the home office and endorsing Harris feels like a bigger bit of news than is likely to be covered as.

A while ago, someone asked me what indie bookstores could do better. I love bookshops, but I had an easy answer: give more shelf-talkers to non-cishet-white-guy science fiction/fantasy authors. Many indies do a great job of celebrating all kinds of authors of mainstream fiction, but not so much SF.

QP with two kinds of my art? Okay.

Fun random fact I learned about the court of Versailles when I visited. All those lovely pale complexions, radiating the pallor of wealth and refinement, the bluest of blood?

White lead paint.

Yeah.

HEY HEY HEY! 😃😃😃
I got the approval on one of the things I was waiting on! (Small loan)

Now I can:
1. Pay off two credit cards (one was 32% interest ffs) and shelve them
2. Pay moving costs
3. Cover rent on two apartments
