#TIL Part of @realgdt.bsky.social's #Frankenstein was filmed in North Bay, Ontario, Canada, the city I grew up in! Apparently chosen because the harsh, icy desolation complements the intense mood of the film.

I thought I shoulda named one of my sons "Ian Motion" _just for the possibility_ of a morning roll call by a substitute teacher. No one would register/understand what happened, but it would exist in the universe.

Of course, text-wise _everything_ (including every paper you will ever write) is in the Library of Babel libraryofbabel.info

Appreciate the sentiment :) Alas, the lone figure does not deliver to the level that the title aspires :(

Besides, I am not yet done mining the gold that is Microbiological laboratory hazard of bearded men
