Whoops, I just binged the entire Bobiverse and now I gotta wait like four months for the next book to come out in print >:( Highly recommended!

I think it would be really cool if my mind and body would be ready to sleep when I want to be ready to sleep, instead of insisting that I somehow slow the Earth's rotation to add two more hours to every day. Just a concept I've been workshopping.

Get a library card. Use it. There’s more there than books. Their funding depends on membership numbers.

Last RT: I fuckin love my local library. They got so much stuff! Check out events at your library too, they got lots of neat training for free, like first aid and narcan. Also online resources, libraries often have accounts for a ton of cool stuff.

Sometimes I like to think about what younger versions of myself would think if they could see how my life has progressed. Would they be proud? Concerned for my well-being? Horrified? What prejudices would my former self have had against the me of today?

The moment we chose not to boycott anthrocon for gatekeeping fursuits from their parade for “quality” was the moment I became cynical about the fandoms future. We need to showcase our best and our best is the young folks making fursuits from crappy faux fur and cheap plastic dinosaur masks.

Picked up Hazeron Starship (Shores of Hazeron) again for nostalgia purposes, quickly had a classic Hazeron moment. Ordered my ship's crew to fly from a city on one planet to a city on another planet. Takeoff: fine. Flight: fine. Landing: smash into the surface at mach fuck like a ballistic missile

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

A pride flag with every color band represented by a NASA image. White is Earth clouds, pink is aurora, blue is the Sun in a specific wavelength, brown is Jupiter clouds, black is the Hubble deep field, red is the top of sprites, orange is a Mars crater, yellow is the surface of Io, green is a lake with algae, blue is Neptune, and purple is the Crab Nebula in a specific wavelength.

The Amazing Digital Circus finale in theatre was fun but oh my god I have never been in a theatre with an audience with such poor theatre etiquette. Even the Minecraft movie crowd was better. Couldn't hear the dialogue at a lot of points because so many people were talking over it. :(

I've been using exclusively Nobara Linux as the operating system on my PC for the past few months, but I've kept a drive with Windows installed on it in case I needed to switch back for anything. I finally had a reason to today (proctoring software), and oh my god how is WIndows *this* bad.

It's finally warm enough to be able to sit outside on the deck consistently and I'm so happy about it. I just need more books to read while I'm out here. Tell me about your favourite werewolf stories!

More book talk since I've been reading a lot lately: I've spent most of the last week reading @carrievaughnco.bsky.social's Kitty Norville series. Not exactly up my alley (a little too reliant on myth and magic for my taste), but very much in the same neighbourhood. A fun read! Glad I found it!

On my last visit to the local library I spotted a cover in the new arrivals section that grabbed my attention like a wolf's grip on the throat of its prey: @jarodkanderson.bsky.social's Strange Animals. It's slightly outside of my usual wheelhouse, but I found it hard to put down!

I am disabled and have never been allowed to drive, which is the norm here in Canada. You generally have to fight pretty hard to convince them to let you have a liscense. So when I see people opposing bike lanes and multi-use paths, which I rely in, using me as their example, I am filled with rage.

I'm not sure I've ever had my feelings about sci-fi and fantasy critters ever spelled out so succinctly before.

A screenshot of three Tumblr posts. The first, by susiephone, says "so frustrating to be a skeptic with a sensof whimsy because like. I want there to be cryptids. I want there to be magic. I want there to be evidence of something we don't fully understand and can't explain, but then 99% of the 'proof' out there for that stuff is like. the most obvious scam you've ever seen in your life." The second is an X-Files poster with edited text reading "I want to believe but I ain't desperate." The third and final is the Shel Silverstein poem, "Magic," which reads: Sandra's seen a leprechaun / Eddie touched a troll / Laurie danced with witches once / Charlie found some goblins' gold / Donald heard a mermaid sing / Susy spied an elf / But all the magic I have known / I've had to make myself.

This is why I hate the “we can’t afford to do<science thing>.” line. We don’t know where the next great technology is. If you told someone in the distant past that our most important technology lies in sand, they wouldn’t have the framework of understanding to believe you.

Alright I need some recommendations on things to read! Right now my autistic fixation is low fantasy benign lycanthropy. The Lycanthrope Club was almost exactly what I wanted, but I've finished it all! Moonlit Brew was good but a little too fantasy for my current taste. Not after vampires or ghosts!

It warms my heart to see everyone so excited about a rocket launch again. It's the entire reason to have a civilization. We all work together to meet each other's needs, so we have free time to build cool shit and explore. If we're just focused on survival, what's even the point? Look to the stars!

Certified good at seeing things I tried on my phone and scored 0.0033, then on my desktop with 0.0016. I'd expect my phone to have better colour accuracy than my monitor, so I wonder if it's just the much larger surface area that makes the difference visible? www.keithcirkel.co.uk/whats-my-jnd...
