Pat Bryant got leveled while defenseless. No flag. He’s motionless on the field with the cart coming out.

Reminder the Jags are up by two touchdowns with less than a minute left. It was completely unnecessary.

I went to bake a cranberry orange pecan bread and came back to @sfwa.org reversing their rule, and rightly disqualifying LLM work. Go team fuck AI.

‪I was going to do my Nebula noms today, but given @sfwa.org's decision about LLM-aided work, I just don't think any actual human creation should be lumped in with that slop, so. Hoping to see this decision reversed before nominations close. (bleh, reposted for typo)
December 19, 2025 at 8:56 PM
I am very tired.
Another Nebula Awards nomination cycle is in full swing, and the addition of poetry and comics, along with the presence of LLMs in industry, required careful consideration.

Read on, and vote well!

We trust our voters & look forward to what they choose to celebrate.

🌬️‼️ VERY high fire danger today! Record heat, 80-100+ mph winds, and a very dry airmass = BE SMART. Winds will be strongest until 6p. 80-100+ mph winds in Boulder/west metro, 40-50 mph peak gusts in Denver 12-6p.

Still windy tomorrow and cooler but lower fire danger.
