"John Wooden, Larry Bird, and Jerry Garcia are all the same person. With that same sense of selflessness, leadership, that same sense of being the person responsible for the outcome and that ability to deliver peak performance on command." @stevesilberman.bsky.social www.salon.com/2016/04/16/i...

Stellar programming. On the same bill you can see a dark, brooding meditation on mortality and the silence of God AND The Seventh Seal.

Ursula Vernon's Hugo acceptance speech included this delightful anecdote-slash-metaphor-slash-encouragement. www.patreon.com/posts/91410900

There is a species of water beetle that regularly gets swallowed whole by frogs. And while there’s a lot of things you can do to keep from being eaten, once you’re inside a frog, your options are severely limited. Generally you get digested. But this particular species of beetle said “You know, I bet there’s another way.” And it started walking. In fact, it walked through the frog’s digestive tract and out the back end.
This is 100% true, you can look it up. 19 out of 20 of these beetles will simply walk out of the frog, unharmed. It usually takes them about an hour, although one beetle speed-ran the frog in five minutes, which I’m sure was very exciting for the frog.
The moral of this story, if there is one, is that no matter how dark the situation, there is always a way through. And there’s always a light at the end of the frog.

If people called me “the gangster of love” or “the space cowboy,” I probably wouldn’t mention that some people also called me Maurice.

At the start of the last WGA strike, I asked Harlan Ellison if I could post his rant, for free, on the internet to inspire the troops. Either one of these ideas was enough to make (or keep) him apoplectic. But in this case? Up it went. Remastered! @pattonoswalt.bsky.social vimeo.com/822377440
