The quantity of Lutherans all misty-eyed over the first Midwestern Pope is both adorable and disorienting.

A question I ask myself on occasion: Do I really want a particular job, or do I just want to write a novel about somebody who does that job?

Well hey! This has been in the works for a while, so it’s great to finally get it out there… gotta love a project that reunites all my favorites, including STEM, Princeton, and Dean Robbins!

This reminds me of a related problem, which is that AI consciousness is often being promised by folks with dubious or low theories of mind.

Joint No. 1 in my #FavePicturebooks24 is… “The Iguanadon’s Horn” by @seancrubin.bsky.social. It is a truly brilliant exploration of changing understanding. It creates a picture of how in science, art and imagination are part of the process to finding answers. Exceptional #PicturebookPage

This week is a great time to send emails you do NOT want responded to. It’s like feeding emails to a goat.

#7 of the 20 book challenge! Redwall series by Brian Jacques (Choose 1 book per day for 20 days that have stayed with you or influenced you. No explanations or reviews, just covers. #booksky ) That said, I will absolutely talk about any of these books.

I loved the Iguanodon's Horn by Sean Rubin! It had every detail about dinosaurs I've ever thought would make a great book, skillfully woven together to say something important about how science works. Brilliant! 📚👍#kidlit #nonfiction #nfpb

Posted one cat picture, feed is now nothing but cats. Might post a clever, unused picture book idea. Algorithm = cargo cult.

Waiting for some good news to unembargo like

So @suzania.bsky.social, my feed is all cat photos now.

Charlie: I got a book about da day! Me: What day? Charlie: You know, da day! Da day they invaded Europe! Sammy: It’s pronounced D-DAY!!! Charlie: Oh!

One of the weird things about publishing is that everyone working here snuck in through some bathroom window.

Probably correct

Always a joy to celebrate amazing books, in this case by: @andyrash.bsky.social @kaylaharren.bsky.social @seancrubin.bsky.social Sophie Blackall, CG Esperanza, Sarah Nelson. All brilliantly selected for the Society of Illustrators’ Original Art exhibition! 🎨 @galltzacker.bsky.social
