Anne Carson is only the 19th woman out of 123 Lit Nobel Laureates & there are as many men named Patrick who’ve won (2) as Black women (1), Asian woman (1), and Latinas (0) combined. So go read some Maryse Conde, Jamaica Kincaid, Yoko Ogawa, Ling Ma, Isabel Allende, an embarrassment of riches really

5 potatoes cubed is still 5 potatoes because potatoes are root vegetables

I was making potato and leek soup and the recipe asked for five potatoes cubed. Even for potato soup, 125 potatoes seems a little excessive.

I am sick of hearing about AI. IT IS SHIT. It produces recycled stolen garbage that tells you exactly what the billionaires want you to hear. And it does 'all this' using an insane amount of money, energy and water. Die AI, DIE.

At long last! They’re here! Tall Tales & Murder, a bonkers caper, very loosely based on the brilliant novels by @caimhmc.bsky.social, starts on RTÉ and RTÉPlayer tonight. It is, as they rightly say, gas.
The cast of the new TV drama Tall Tales & Murders. Grinner (Aidan Gillen), Bridget (Ella Lily Hyland), Paul (Casey Walsh), Bunny (Brian Doherty), Wesley (Packy Lee), Ma Baker (Phillipa Dunne) and Matron (Aisling O’Sullivan).

Just saw someone referring to Daniel Thomas's Patriot Platform Blackshorts army as his "PeePee Boys" and I feel this should stick.
Screenshot of a couple of dozen white men from Patriot Platform in black hoodies and shorts standing in the street wearing black balaclavas, taken from Daniel Thomas's attempted blockade of the Daily Mail offices after they did an exposé on him which he claims gave his mum's address but it didn't, he doxxed her himself by using her full address to publicly register his business

The Astarion prequel novel comes out next week, and I got a chance to sit down with @tkingfisher.com to chat about the book, Baldur's Gate 3, working within a massive IP, and how she balanced comedy, tragedy, and whimsy. Also paladins. So... so many paladins.

T. Kingfisher’s Astarion is hilarious, heartbreaking, and utterly tragic
The book perfectly captures Astarion’s voice, and refuses to talk down to the audience through trauma, pain, and the small light of hope.

How to visit an art museum with someone who isn't used to visiting art museums:
Two social media posts by @pan_juho (Translated from Japanese):

"I love going to art museums, but when I go with someone who's not used to them, if I say, 'If you were a great thief, tell me later which one you'd steal,' they end up looking the exhibits pretty seriously, and that makes me happy.

"Whether you steal something you like or something that seems valuable -> it opens up endless conversation based on what vou liked about it or where you saw value in it, so it's also great as an easy icebreaker for chats after visiting the museum."
