You've seen fireworks that look like jellyfish, but what about a jellyfish that looks like fireworks? The E/V Nautilus filmed this rare Halitrephes maasi jellyfish glowing like a firework at a depth of 4,019 feet (1,225 meters) off the coast of Baja California, Mexico. (📷: Ocean Exploration Trust)

One of the local coffee shops is doing "free coffee"every day this week. Free, so long as you spend $2.50 on other stuff. Still fine by me. Less fine is that I've been lowering my coffee intake to 8 oz/day. Their "small" is 16 oz and probably stronger than I normally make mine. Gonna be a fun day.

I do surveys for cash while I eat breakfast. They often have "attention checks" that you have to answer correctly so you don't just blow through and answer mindlessly. This attention check today felt very metal.

It took a while, but I finally finished reading The Running Man. (I've also read like 3 Murderbot books in between). It's a great read, and I do love how much more closely the newer movie follows the book. This might be my favorite Stephen King thing that I've read. I'll have to ponder that.

33 years ago today, the Stranger stepped onto the dock of Myst Island for the first time. We can still hear the water splashing against the pilings.
The dock of Myst Island from the original version of the game. A wooden dock ends at a spiral staircase that leads up to giant gears on a hillside. A ship is sunk in the water on the right, and parts of buildings are visible on the left.

"Why are we here? For what purpose do we exist? We must not dwell on these questions. We can merely trust in the will of the universe and spend our days and nights in harmony with the world, celebrating this festival called Life." Hell Yeah Splatoon 1. I agree.
Sunken Scroll 24 in Splatoon 1. It says: "Why are we here? For what purpose do we exist? We must not dwell on these questions. We can merely trust in the will of the universe and spend our days and nights in harmony with the world, celebrating this festival called Life."

The image behind it is I think a fax machine with religious seals on it. The phone cord is wrapped around a candle.

For your Tuesday, here's a shot of deep, deep, deep space from JWST. Every bright, six-pointed feature is a star in the Milky Way. Everything else—even the smallest, faintest dots—are whole galaxies millions to *billions* of lightyears away.
A spiral galaxy sits in the centre of the image; smaller galaxies dot the scene, some resolved only a small, colourful smudges. The six-pointed features are stars in the Milky Way.

Gradius III SA-1 is one my most proud ROM hacks. Zero slowdown. Gameplay fluid as a rocket. You can either play it unlocked (60 FPS and harder) or play the Origin version (60 FPS with speed controls for fair difficulty). It's available for download and works on real hardware.

I'm sorry BlueSky but I did not scroll back until the day I joined. You did not run out of posts, you merely aren't willing to display more of them, and that makes you frustrating if not useless to me. I do not want "my" Discover feed. I want the reverse chronological feed, little more.

The image is of a four panel comic.
In the first panel we see a dragon sitting on a pile of treasure. A speech bubble pointing off panel reads, “Dragon, why do you have all this treasure?”
In the second panel we zoom in on the dragons face. He simply says “shiny”.
In the third panel we pan to the left and see that there is a crow standing next to the dragon on the treasure.
In the fourth panel we zoom in on the crows face. He says “hell yeah”.
