Flying high, high
I'm a bird in the sky
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high
What a feeling to fly
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please

Just learnt the Yajisan-Kazusan rules from this puzzle: puzz.link/p?yajikazu/1...

Very interesting that you can shade in clues to effectively remove them from the puzzle. Gives it a "one person is telling the truth, one is lying" kind of feeling.

When I asked for time-travel story recs, Erik said he likes how the film Primer "sticks to its time travel theory without tripping over its own plot." Searching reviews I got nostalgic because of the reviewer. Must fill my coffee mug to be sufficiently awake. www.rogerebert.com/reviews/prim...

I'd love to hear about time-travel stories that you recommend or that influenced you (with or without pics, thumbnails, reviews): books, short-stories, films, tv, radio, interactive fiction, games. Yay cross-genre! 💙📚 #TimeTravel #BookSky #FilmSky #sff #sciencefiction #fantasy #sci-fi #romantasy

Canadian artists depicting various scenes of modernity ca. 1900.

What would be analogous scenes to depict today? Could you imagine someone painting a coder working with Github Copilot, a Waymo car, a server farm?
