@realmsunknown.bsky.social New book recommendation;Anima Rising by Christopher Moore. Like Sacre Blue, lots of historical figures, this time centered on early 2th C. Vienna art scene, with a heavy dose of Frankenstein and Inuit traditions. Plus his usual wit.

Wife and self were big fans ofFarscape! You mentioned Moia, but wasn’t Virginia Hey’s character a plant? Fast moving and with unexplained mammalian anatomy, but still green.

Be it fans of #scifi, #fantasy, #speculativefiction, or #Booksky type communities, we know you know at least one friend or corner of Bluesky who would enjoy journeying into Realms Unknown.

Happy π Day to those who celebrate. Eat something circular in celebration of existing in a locally Euclidean space.

I’ve enjoyed the past two weeks of semi vacation. Full of meh at the prospect of the next five days of work. #HappyNewYear #AnotherYearCloserToRetirement

On this final night of Hanukkah, on the first night of 2025, wishing all a little light in the darkness.

Finished watching Black Doves, the most heartwarming Christmas entertainment since Die Hard. Five stars.

The employees of the Denver Art Museum just voted to unionize by a 2-to-1 margin. Even counting all those who didn't vote as no votes, the result is a clear majority.

Well done to the organizers (one of whom I am related to, just to lay my biases on the table).

My #dog is on the couch behind me. Loudly and enthusiastically slurping herself.

Dogs are disgusting.

No picture, because yuck.

I love this podcast in general, but this episode is particularly good, especially right now.

Besides the great history of the ILGWU, I learned that the “Ladies’” modifies “Garment”, not “Union”. Boy, is my face red. Ignorance fought.
