Artificial intelligence systems do not think, feel, want or understand. Avoid language that gives them human characteristics.

"It's dangerous to go alone! Take this." Loved it so much I ended up working for Nintendo as a gameplay counselor for a while. Still hard to believe that happened.

It was 26 years ago, at the 2000 Chicago Worldcon, that I met with @craigengler.bsky.social and Brooks Peck and was offered a job editing the SCI FI Channel’s Science Fiction Weekly online magazine. I stayed there 13+ years. Thanks for the opportunity, guys! Seems like yesterday.

Selfie with Craig between Brooks and me. Brooks has on a dark green floral patterned shirt, Craig has on a light sweatshirt over a black T-shirt, and I’m in a plaid blue and pink collared shirt.

One of the best vampire films ever made. I would love to see a 1970s set TV series about them. Just tooling around the southwest in a camper eating people and avoiding sunlight.

Me: Milo, let’s wake up and start our day! Milo: Yes, I’m starting with a nap! He got up from sleeping on his dog bed so he could go sleep on the couch 😂

I would absolutely love to give you a personalized book recommendation if you promise that tomorrow, not today, you purchase from Bookshop.org to benefit a Twin Cities bookstore.

Here's a very small thing you can do to send a little love to Minneapolis bookstores in the meantime. Search by state on Bookshop.org to support a particular independent bookstore, and rather than choosing your favorite local shop this week to receive a profit share, pick one that's in Minneapolis. Some favorites include Magers & Quinn, Moon Palace Books, Comma, Strive, and Wild Rumpus.

Fuck ICE forever.

Hey, get that flu shot. Knowing folks who are catching this current flu and it's kicking them in the teeth -- the shot will, worst case scenario, prevent it from taking you to the hospital or the morgue. It might knock it out quicker for you or even help you duck catching it. (Mask up, too.)
