![Comic. [Two people on shore looking at body of water] PERSON 1: Hey, where’s that big island we were looking at this morning? PERSON 2 with short hair: Oh, it’s underwater. The ocean’s depth here goes up and down by like ten feet every day. PERSON 1: What? PERSON 2: It’s because the planet has a big moon orbiting near the surface. It causes weird gravity effects. PERSON 1: *What???* [caption] People here are used to them, but tides are one of the weirdest and most sci-fi elements of life on Earth.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cz73r7iyiqn26upot4jtjdhk/bafkreidj2tdqhkgoamiqf5reqt7kvbpt26x3cgjxsp4rtwwb46qumcltdq@jpeg)

Wish I'd had access to this at the beginning of the summer. This would have been an awesome project. There's probably no time to fit it in during the school year, but we'll see!

Yes, the defining feature of Golden Age SciFi is that the authors were all brilliantly batshit idiosyncratic autodidacts who both thought they'd solved all of life's problems with their new Theory, and also had to write fifty-nine books a week.
This is probably coming from my dad giving a bunch of his novels when I was a kid, but I think modern Sci-Fi and fantasy really are missing the old ways of author ideology being professed being kind of insane and contradictory
Purely vibe based, but 20 years ago science fiction felt more progressive coded and fantasy more reactionary coded and now the opposite feels true. Yes, I am aware there are countless counterexamples in both directions. I have no basis in fact for this. Just how the vibes felt to me then and now.

Dearest Martha,
The National Guard stand solemn watch at the Krispy Kreme tonight. I cannot tell if they defend the people from the donuts, or the donuts from the people. Powdered sugar hangs in the air like cannon smoke. Jensen took a hot coffee to the face, he may never recover.
Yours in glaze,

KPop Demon Hunters was way better than it had any right to be. The twenty-year-old spawn asked me to come to the sing along, and I loved it. Also, Saja Boys' songs slapped.

The older I get, the more I realize that pretty much everyone is *always* going through something. A little grace goes a long way.
I'm having a rough go of it lately, and have been thinking: everyone is going through something, and you have no idea what it is, or how it's affecting them.
Quote post this is if you're going through something, and maybe we'll all realize that we aren't as alone as we feel right now.

let's pause to reflect a moment on the spectacle of all of these state and national democrats still hung up on a New York mayoral primary nominee for almost a month
If the criticism is that Mamdani didn’t say something but he didn’t condemn the people who did say it when asked and that leaves open space for other people who aren’t him to maybe say other things that are maybe bad, that’s a criticism that is so attenuated it means absolutely nothing.
Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro chides Zohran Mamdani for not condemning other people’s antisemitism:
“He left open far too much space for extremists to either use his words or for him to not condemn the words of extremists that said some blatantly antisemitic things.”

Three weeks ago, on top of a mountain in George Washington National Forest, I ushered my children from a tent into our truck to wait out a lightening storm in the middle of the night.
We had no cell service, but NOAA weather radio was on the whole time.
This is incalculably stupid.

What is this?
A Stop-Work Order issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) for Weather and All-Hazards Radio Maintenance.!!?
The order remains in effect until further notification from a U.S. Department of Commerce Contracting Officer.

“I’m plainly convinced that my situation in this ICE jail is direct retaliation for my coverage,” Mario Guevara told @ajc.com in an exclusive interview from the Folkston, Georgia ICE detention center where he is currently detained, despite a judge's bail order. “I haven’t committed any crimes.”
