How to describe THE APPLE?? A movie that contains an evil music executive, rock opera, God in a Rolls Royce, Canadian folk music stars, actual sequence set in Hell, and one vampire. Time to watch it on the big screen as Mr Boogalow intended: www.americancinematheque.com/now-showing/...

It was such an honor to work as one of Gabor's research assistants in college, to attend so many Civil War Institutes, and have him as a mentor and advisor. He made me love Lincoln, but also to focus on the smaller stories of the Civil War & I am forever grateful. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/10/b...

a moment in time: sixteen years ago I took a tauntaun sleeping bag outside into "Snowmaggedon" in DC and then it got put in the Think Geek catalog

this is why I shouldn't be allowed to have dev tools 😌

we are back from our adventure at sea (with some wild swells) and have now put our cute merit badges and patches up for sale if you want to get some!

Anyone who is part of the federal government who is not doing everything in their power to stop this administration, regardless of the assumed cost to normalcy or career, is a coward and a collaborator.

report #3 on the "did you feel it" for an earthquake... riding high, my friends earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/...

both of us will ride these highs for years tbh

my annual Chronicling of Media for 2025. Less movies (49 vs 61), more books (26 vs 17), less games (12 vs 18)—but who's counting. Here's to a new year of good stories told and a better world and a little less need for escapism!

Today’s the day! For all those tuning into the Rose Parade and wanting even more floats, may I present my weird lil bot 🌸🌷🪻

now that the idea of Carly Rae Jepsen writing a song for Heated Rivalry has been placed in my brain, I will spend the next year manifesting it for season 2

On this Rose Parade eve-eve-eve, I have brought you a silly thing I have made. This will randomly generate a list of Rose Parade floats, including the award it won, for what ("innovation in floral design"), who built the float, what it's of, and the flowers & natural materials needed to create it.

As someone who’s been obsessed with this station for years, who can blame him?! Anyway it opened in 1904, it has skylights, the curve is too tight for modern trains but the 6 train does turn around there. Also the NY Transit Museum does tours!

"Did you see what Mark Cuban posted? Oh did you see the clapb—" You shake yourself awake in the cold North Atlantic water. You are not online. It is July of 1858. You are a baleen whale, and you have changed your mind. The future most not come to pass. The telegraph cable must break.

Celebrating the magic of Horatio Hornblower this Christmas season

Could spend weeks just taking photos of neat ruins in Bermuda

hmmm what games took over my life this year? steam: we got u

great news, @shoomlah.bsky.social got me a book on the actual astronaut class that book was inspired by so I can cleanse my palate

work for my little generator is coming along quite nicely for #procjam - figuring out the best way to write the prompts to get the best (and efficient) result so this is lots of iterations

re-upping this for the alternate deviled egg season 🙏🏼 tried a new technique (gently tapping the egg to break the membrane) for an easy peel and it is life-changing

While hanging ornaments on the tree, @shoomlah.bsky.social: “Ok, so you do want to hang Boq or Fiero?”

cannot be happier that this update is finally out! the team has been working so hard on this and it is genuinely a blast to play

I think this is time to build a very silly bot that I have been noodling on for a while

Couldn’t ask for better weather (pouring rain in LA) to finally dive into Seance of Blake Manor

get in loser, we're going shopping

cannot possibly express how formative this game was to me!!!

having to convert patch notes / newsletters / announcements into bbcode, markdown, slack, the new wysiwyg steam editor, and / or email newsletter is I think a particular kind of hell, but bulleted lists are truly the nadir

Con Rangers are taking to sea!! Super excited about this and had far too much fun slicing this lil video together

incredible things happening on the Getty Villa wikipedia page

My dad moved out to LA in the 70s to work in the industry and has had a great, fulfilling career. All my friends & loved ones in film & animation NOW are looking for work, rethinking longtime careers, unable to continue work. It is so heartbreaking to watch the bottom fall out in real time

Officially have a little village of @pamwishbow.bsky.social’s houses, with all the types of shops that I want near me at all time (and one rooftop garden bc I ran out of room)

allow me to help remedy this by reminding people that the queen is releasing 6 new tracks for the anniversary 🙏🏼

Very much enjoying catfishing.net which gives you categories of Wikipedia pages and you have to guess the article. Today I did the best I’ve done, but honestly often a 4 is triumphant #455 - 7/10 🐈🐈🐟🐈🐟 🐈🐟🐈🐈🐈

pretty solid run if I do say so myself

I can’t even verbalize how much this erasing of history distresses me, but I WILL use the opportunity to say that in the 18th c, Phila. law said if slaves lived there for 6 continuous months, they would be freed. Washington *rotated his slaves back to Mount Vernon* so they would remain enslaved

I would die for Pack Cat

to name a few: modicum, plinth, dour, vinyl, draught, victuals, forecastle also a related category of words I misunderstood because of unclear context: nonplussed, desultory, salt of the earth, laconic, peruse, bemused

ME: *writing in my journal with the sole aim of pissing off future historians and archaeologists* I returned to my home - which is built in the usual style - by the normal way, and prepared and ate dinner in the way I often but not always do

New movie (Blade) added to my ongoing list of films set in “present day” boxd.it/dMdta

TFW u open BlueSky and a bunch of ppl are vaguely posting about the same shit

Apollo 13 (the film) was what first got me interested in the space program. Lost Moon, Lovell's book that it was adapted from, cemented it. He was an incredible man, an unassuming leader, a great astronaut, and I am legitimately heartbroken that he never got to set foot on the moon.

WHAT A MORNING!!!!!!!!! (cannot possibly describe how proud I am of this image)

it is no exaggeration to say that Hersey’s Hiroshima is one of the most affecting, devastating pieces of reporting in the last century. I don’t see how you can read it and not come away with the soul-deep belief that every nuke should be fully dismantled and the blueprints obliterated.

Also what a good time to say that ✨ I've got some some space for new clients & studios ✨ for the rest of the year! If you are looking for social strategy work in games, discord support, writing, newsletters, and things of that nature, please reach out! Website/portfolio can be found ⤵️

Pro tip: don't listen to fictional books about things you care deeply about (space program), even if it's more of the Shuttle era vs Mercury / Gemini / Apollo because you WILL get mad that the audiobook narrator pronounces EECOM wrong and that the protag keeps "volunteering" for CAPCOM shifts

RETVRN

Think of England by KJ Charles does this moment masterfully AND it’s where the title comes into play, no notes

the prophesy has been fulfilled 🙏🏼 (I am an npc in @gogotowngame.com)
