Still thinking about a comment a read in response to "fast, cheap, or good, pick two" that responded with, "I never expected companies to pick fast twice."

there’s one true answer but it’s the correct one five minutes after game of thrones - the last true monoculture show - ended, we all collectively agreed not to talk about it again, and house of the dragon/knight of the seven kingdoms haven’t recaptured a fraction of that cultural presence

One of my favorite "Lord of the Rings" quotes. Tolkien really got to the heart of how peaceful life in the Shire was here. Note the affectionate use of "dog" by Sam towards Frodo. Such a small thing but so much meaning.

A transcript of the opening narration to the Twilight Zone episode “The Midnight Sun”. It reads:

The word that Mrs. Bronson is unable to put into the hot, still, sodden air is 'doomed,' because the people you've just seen have been handed a death sentence. One month ago, the Earth suddenly changed its elliptical orbit and in doing so began to follow a path which gradually, moment by moment, day by day, took it closer to the Sun. And all of man's little devices to stir up the air are now no longer luxuries—they happen to be pitiful and panicky keys to survival. The time is five minutes to twelve, midnight. There is no more darkness. The place is New York City and this is the eve of the end, because even at midnight it's high noon, the hottest day in history, and you're about to spend it - in the Twilight Zone.

Annihilation always makes Halloween lists, so I thought I'd do a thread of creepy reads. Starting today with a flat-out modern masterpiece, Max Lury's No Ghosts. Thoroughly contemporary and disturbing grounded in deep characterization, and, in part, outdoing Back Rooms while also its own thing. 1

This conflates the desire for justice with cancel culture, assumes those demanding repercussions for Geller feel vindictive glee, and states that he’s already done the work of rehabilitation because his crime was 10 yrs ago. Its take on rehabilitative versus punitive justice is profoundly misguided.

“Just a cat”. Rude! Photo from my collection, no date/info.
Black and white photo of a lovely shorthaired grey cat standing on a line of smooth rocks that look like they may have been placed there to border a driveway or something. The cat is looking at the camera with its tail up, obviously friendly. Cursive handwriting in the upper left corner reads “Just a cat”.

Haunted Anubi @anubiarts.at.app.wafrn.net · 04/10/2026
duolingo #PixelArt #Art #Comic #Comics #Spanish #Duolingo #AnubiArts
A 4 panel comic about Duolingo, after it teaches you a language.

Panel 1: Someone random is happy with themselves, shaking their fist in front of them and saying "Ok, I finally completed my Duolingo course! time to put my acquired Spanish to the test!!"

Panel 2: They decide to ask the first spanish speaker they see to try it out, that being Anubi, with them saying "excuse me, spanish speaker!". Anubi says quietly "oi that's me"

Panel 3: Now with Anubi facing their way, they decide to introduce themselves with what Duolingo taught them after so long, saying "Perdoneme, soy solo una manzana que será presidente" (or, translated to English: "Excuse me, I'm just an apple that will be a president.")

Panel 4: Anubi doesn't know what to do after this, except to turn into a spanish meme, with her having the hair and body of Goku from Dragon Ball Z/Super, and simply asking "¿Qué?" (or "What?" in English).
