I made LOTH-BISCUITS IN A GALAXY FAR, FAR AWAY because these critters are from my one of my most favourite star warses (REBELS) and also because they're great at completely ruining a stormtrooper's day.

It's funny because they used these to vote in favour in taking a hard line on crime.

The term is so rare that out of over 300,000 news entries, it only appeared first in May 7 2024 in a "news" article on evangelical blog World News Group called "Giving evil a pleasant label." This was logged two days before EPPC posted the document on May 9.

Reminder: In light of Bad Bunny's Superbowl performance spotlighting Latino culture, here's a hefty list of Latino speculative fiction authors I curated if anyone wants to take a gander and read some phenomenal work. Much love to all!

Thanks for this
@klaszus.bsky.social
. Seeing Calgarians lamenting these Olympics is maddening because it was known in 2018 that we couldn't afford it. "The bulk of those savings was found in security and essential services". Paris spent $2.32B on security in 2024. The 2018 entire estimate was $4.6B.

The original estimate was $3,500. The emergency hospital with blood is estimated at $6500- $11,000.

I will eventually shut up about this but Bad Bunny’s use of the power lines is an outstanding example of how to communicate about climate and energy issues. Not about who is the smartest nerd in the room and spewing numbers but about people’s actual lives. Genius.

I refuse to use ChatGPT to make a little cartoon version of me and my interests. But also I like social media trends. So I will ask you, the people, to badly draw a little cartoon of me featuring sharks. Please don't spend too much time on this. Badly drawn is fine.

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance required 9,852 theatrical pyrotechnics, nearly 400 costumed extras, and a lot of ingenuity. And yes, that was a real couple featured in the wedding.

You can make art with stick figures, if your stick figures capture something that is human and relatable. You can make art with legos. Your limitations as an artist are a part of you: a thing that you sometimes outgrow, sometimes manage, and sometimes, you just learn as an old friend.

Every time I hear one of these kinds of claims, I feel the urge to ask "How many years of grant funding for the National Endowment for the Arts do you think your favorite 'democratizing tool' ate up this year in investments? Hint: it's probably more than the total the NEA has *ever received*."
