bluesky tip: If you are plagued by an endless thread that doesn't interest you in the least but which keeps popping up b/c of reply after reply, "Mute thread" won't get rid of it. Click on the first post and select "Hide post." Boom. The mediocre jokes vanish forever... or until the next thread.

One thing I find endlessly funny about the rise of AI is that it has revealed that there is a large number of people who believe that the reason they wrote essays at school or university is their teachers were desperately waiting for them to provide a definite answer to “Lear: what’s up with him?”

Gandalf at Helm's Deep knows his ass just got saved by the Ents. He's squinting in disbelief and clutching his staff like he thinks someone will steal it on the subway. He's speaking, with a speech bubble, so that he's saying the words quoted below.

I just started following a podcast that plans to cover every episode of The X-Files. All 11 seasons. The first two podcast eps, which cover a single 42-minute ep of the show, are each an hour and a half long.

Everybody's loving this clip, for good reason, but it should remind everyone that cities therefore have an obligation to build enough housing that all these marginalized and outcast people can come and afford to live in them on minimum wage *without* becoming homeless. YIMBY!

There's a cool site where you can mock up your own Penguin Classics book cover, so I did that with my own books! The Pagan Jones trilogy is coming soon, so voila - the first Cover I Can't use for Book 1.... This is the 1961 Dior suit-dress Pagan is wearing the night the Berlin Wall goes up.

A mock up for a Penguin Classics book cover for The Notorious Pagan Jones featuring a photo of the classic 1961 Dior suit-dress with leather gloves. It is so gorgeous and flattering and practical, made of brown wool, with a wide belt, long sleeves, and a cute bolero jacket attachment. I want one! The protagonist wears this outfit when she's caught on the wrong side the night the Berlin Wall goes up.

Read this thread & also the NYT story (which will, be warned, make you physically sick and very distressed indeed, so keep that in mind). The campus police DID NOT TELL THE PROSECUTOR all that Jane Doe said. The campus police *omitted* her most important statements about what those men did to her.
