Picked back up with The Handmaid’s Tale (never watched past S3 originally) and it’s kind of wild watching it given all that’s going on in the world, but it’s also some very good tv. The music choices especially are excellent. Fight like June! (Currently watching S4)

Watching the AI episode of The X Files (S11 E7). Such and effective episode with so little dialogue. The opening monologue feels far too relevant for today’s conversations about generative AI 😬

Samantha Mulder, and Emily Sim. Both had such an impact, and yet very few words and both characters deserved better. 😫

Just watched X-Files S11 Ep2 - so many MSR moments where they’re all cute, comfortable and flirty. Napping together, Sculling eating his muffin, Scully calling it ‘our house’, Mulder quipping who hasn’t? to Scully’s line about Langley dreaming of him. Adorbs Scully, the handcuff scene 🤭 🥰

Tonight I spotted a bright star just as I was starting to get ready for bed. My tired bouncy brain woke up and needed to know what I was seeing. So much for the earlier night (night owl so still late), but now I know. Procyon in Canis Minor (Orion on the right).

This is awful. Someone with far too much time on their hands it’s doxxing people and seems to think causing a virtual pile on is the moral high ground?! A good ‘Christian’ should be empathetic and welcoming. The people doxxing are not. So sad how empathy and immigration can’t co-exist for some 😤

and if you think tylenol causes autism, don’t forget the first person to get a documented, clinical diagnosis was born before tylenol existed
Today it's expected that the federal administration is going to make an announcement claiming to have found a "cause" for autism and their plan for what to do about it. Members of AU's team had a discussion about what sort of statement we wanted to make and came to this conclusion: those of us who are impacted by this sort of rhetoric (actual autistic people) have known for a very long time that this was coming.Despite research proving time and again there is no one "cause" for the autistic neurotype, people still want something to "blame". The real epidemic here is ableism. The amount of time and energy presumably spent on naming autism a "public health crisis" should be spent on solving actual public health crises (such as the overwhelmingly horrifying reality of black maternal mortality rates) and finding ways to support autistic people, not "cure" them. We have no interest in entertaining this announcement but what we do want is the unredacted Epstein files

This is how Mulder would look when he takes baby girl shopping for their upcoming vacation. She wants the hello kitty case, so of course he’ll proudly wheel it through the shop as she skips ahead. 🥹 Scully would love the confidence and the way he loves their little girl so much.

Such a powerful scene at the end of Babylon (The X Files, 10x04) “I saw deep and unconditional love.” “I saw things too. I witnessed unqualified hate that appears to have no end.” “How to reconcile the two? The extremes of our nature.” “That's the question. Maybe the question of our times.”

My body relaxes and my mind quiets. All the heavy worries and fast thoughts of the day feel long gone. I stare at the stars and am reminded just how vast the universe is, and on the grand scheme of things just how small I am. I should do this more often. Take a moment to look at the stars ✨

Night owl diaries: 1am, I went into the garden, tilted my head back and looked up at the skies. The air is warm, cooler and less humid than inside. The night is still, just a distant hum of an industrial estate. The skies are mostly clear, a few wispy clouds, pinprick stars and a bright moon.

Posted my 50th work on AO3 last night and didn’t even realise 🙈 It’s a fun little what if Scully said “okay” when Mulder says “marry me” in Chinga. I love how he’s so bored without her (and showing off some ND traits) but then enamoured by her 😍🥰 archiveofourown.org/works/684824...

Day one of the Factor forensic linguistics summer school done and I’m really enjoying it so far. I did my MA at @lancslinguistics.bsky.social before they did much in this area. I enjoyed sociophonetics so seeing some of the more applied aspects with forensic speech science was a great start!
A slide on voice identification discussing that voices have been used to identify individuals for a long time through various sources like phone calls, taxi calls, cctv or surveillance footageA bookmark advertising the MSc Forensic Linguistics and Speech Science, on top of my factor notebook and new pens. If I could do another Masters I’d consider this one!!A slide titled ‘the voice is not a constant’ with images to show how voice may change for context or audience, it featured two short clips of Gillian Anderson using her American and English accents depending on her audience. A Lancaster University tote back featuring a line image of a duck. On my way back to the car I walked past many ducks and several ducklings.

When your academic interests and special interest/hyperfixation combine! At a forensic linguistics summer school and who do we have representing that ‘the voice is not a constant’ - Gillian Anderson! This was from a talk about (forensic) speech science. I enjoyed sociophonetics so loved this!
A slide from a forensic speech science talk stating ‘the voice is not a constant’ with pictures representing ‘context’ including Homer Simpson at an interview, someone reading a book and images to symbolize ‘audience’. Video clips of Gillian Anderson accent switching/converging/accommodating to her audience were used to highlight this.

Spotted this post on my feed. My brain went right to ‘is this Mulder? Or Gillian?’ 🤣 Is the obsession too strong when you see random things that make you think of fandom lore? Asking for a friend 😬
Someone on Blue Sky shares a picture of a garden sign they’ve seen, with chickens sat underneath. 

Sign reads: in this house we believe Bigfoot is real
I am going to kiss him
He will be my lover
I will be the little spoon
Me and Bigfoot will f**k
And you can’t stop us
