"Is there technology the left is excited about?" is the kind of question you only ask if you're wildly naive about technology.

mRNA vaccines. Heat pumps. Offshore wind. Urban mining. Sodium batteries.

But god forbid we're not fawning over every new implementation of Making Computers Bad At Math.

In the last two days I've watched two movies based on books I absolutely adore.
The new "Wuthering Heights" made me want to put my eyes out.
The rewatch of "Tale of Tales" has reminded me why I love movies and books so much. 11 years after it came out, it's still stunning.

Sitting on a couch in Poland, watching a video game stream for charity, feels just abstract right now.
Helpless & overwhelmed. Kyiev is freezing to death and I don't have any money to donate for generators. State sanctioned executions in Minnesota and Iran. People dead in Indonesia's landslides. Bad news from every corner of the world.

Yet not reading news and acknowleding the deaths feels cowardly.

Answering emails sucks, but I make it suck a little less by putting on ambient music and soundscapes and saying "today I'm answering emails from a Victorian greenhouse in a rainstorm" or "today I'm answering emails from a space station"

To bring such thoughts to me;
But still it whispered lowly,
How dark the woods will be!'

Today is Old Wassail and Here's to thee, old apple tree...

Some places have very, very old wassailing customs, though, and we go to the West Country on Old Twelvey to witness such a one in our 11th #winterfolklore tale.

Read it below.

I cannot wait for that novel! 💜 The graphic is just stunning.
I have ARCs! So exciting to have this novel get closer to being real.

A little Innistrad throwback 🦇
Some of my Magic: the Gathering illustrations I don’t post often - and still one of the coolest projects I’ve ever gotten to work on. 🖤

Watching 11th episode of the 4th Critical Role campaign.

As a polyamorous, bisexual disaster myself I truly wish to become Liam O'Brien's character when I grow up.

Post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers.

Napisałem parę zdań o przemocy policyjnej, skrajnym frajerstwie i materiale od @piotrczaban.bsky.social, który widziało zbyt mało osób, zapraszam:

Usprawiedliwiasz mordercę z ICE? Jesteś frajerem.
