I think I still have one of those 3.5" disks somewhere. Here's a video looking at it, with some history about PTEN in the commentary around it.

I know Mo Ryan from her media reporting on SF/F TV series. She was at the ICE protest in Chicago today and has this report on what was going on there today.

1. Led by Elon Musk, the far-right has exploded in a campaign to get Netflix to remove shows with queer and trans characters. If Netflix capitulates to their demands, an already strained market for LGBTQ+ animators might become even more dire. Subscribe to support our journalism.

IT IS TIME! RELEASE DAY IS UPON US! AMERICA'S MOST GOTHIC: HAUNTED HISTORY STRANGER THAN FICTION, co-authored w/ Andrea Janes of @boroughsofthedead.bsky.social IS HERE! Available wherever books are sold via @kensingtonbooks.bsky.social! Thanks for shares & support! 🖤 bookshop.org/p/books/amer...

Tomorrow is the release date for SILVER AND LEAD, the nineteenth book in the October Daye series. It should be hitting Kindles for the East Coast in about three hours. For everyone who's still on this ride with me, thank you. I am so appreciative. I hope to see some of you in the coming weeks!

I concur with this sentiment.

Please stop posting that bullshit thing about Melania Trump plagiarizing from C J Cherryh. It’s AI-generated and not true.

Jim Henson would've been 89 years old today. Commemorate his life and legacy by celebrating creativity, diversity, imagination, peace, and just plain silliness. Walk with me a bit while I talk about Jim and his work--and leave your comments about what he means to you. Right this way. /1

I have a list of all of the companies that advertised on one news show on KTLA today. It is so much more powerful to call the advertisers rather than the station. Let them know that you will not be using their products unless they pull their advertising. 1/

This is worth your time haha youtu.be/7vRX-BQAjeE

BBC News captures Doctor Who himself Sylvester McCoy at the Trump protest seemingly unaware of who they're interviewing.

Name a band you've seen live with a pic... 48 years ago tonight! Fleetwood Mac, Kemper Arena, Kansas City, MO.

Thanks to today's post from Kate Bush News on the 40th Anniversary of the release of Hounds of Love, I finally know the provenance of a signed art print I acquired in the 1990s. I wonder if @paulcornell.bsky.social ordered one from the insert in the UK LP. www.katebushnews.com/2025/09/16/h...

Education is the enemy of fascism.

Tonight in Scottsdale!

This was my dorm room in college...

Yuuuuup. Also, I don't give a shit if some of the worst people in the world think I am being performative or am virtue signaling. Fuck 'em. They don't get to tell me how to be. Anyway, trans rights are human rights, y'all. It's not complicated.

To my fellow cishet dudes: when we are quiet about supporting the trans community, the only voices anyone hears are the Charlie Kirks of the world. Don't let accusations of being "performative" or "virtue signaling" shut you up - that's their whole point. Our voices are needed now more than ever.

@sluggodoug.bsky.social For covers, one of my favorites is R.E.M.'s Superman!

Age Verification? During the summer when I was in grade school, I would bicycle down to Whiteside's IGA on Tuesdays and Thursdays to help unpack the magazines so that I had first pick of the comics at 12 cents each...

You know what today is? It’s Gnomes of Lychford release day! torpublishinggroup.com/gnomes-of-ly...

It's the 50th Anniversary of The United Federation of Phoenix, the longest running independent Star Trek fan club. Here's "A Day at the Star Trek convention" featurette aired by our local station that was airing TNG in the late 80s which features several UFP members. youtu.be/3_p1JR5BZLk

Saw @chucktingle.bsky.social in Mesa, AZ tonight, arranged via @changinghands.bsky.social . Fun talk/show or whatever it was. Not a normal author talk. Catch him if you can. I tried my best on the alt text to describe what Chuck was wearing.

Real history, real women, real ghosts: A HAUNTED HISTORY OF INVISIBLE WOMEN: TRUE STORIES OF AMERICA'S GHOSTS, by yours truly & @andreajanes.bsky.social, is on sale for an absolute steal! Thanks, @bookbubpartners.bsky.social, for highlighting this limited-time offer! www.bookbub.com/books/a-haun...

Connie Willis received one of these grants in 1982, which allowed her to start writing full time. This is another punch to the throat from this administration...

The first pictures I put online of myself were these ones from the 2001 NATPE Convention in Las Vegas with some actors at the show. There was also one with some guy from Andromeda, but he doesn't need to be seen here. My report on the 2001 NATPE convention here: web.archive.org/web/20030409...

Peri is getting close to getting the transplant he needs and needs support. Please donate or share if you can or share. I have several pieces made by Peri and would hope that he can get better and continue making the amazing art that he creates. www.gofundme.com/f/peris-medi...

Humble Bundle has a @marthawells.com bundle with all of her Murderbot stores as well as her great fantasy stories. And, since it is @tordotcom.bsky.social , they are in general epub format and not tied to specific system like some other bundles have been. www.humblebundle.com/books/martha...

Congrats on the Hugo award @robertjbennett.bsky.social !

Happening right now as I post this!

When I started working professionally in photography I did it under the name Kaos Beauty Klinik. Today I started a new Instagram account devoted to my photo work. Just go to Instagram and look for kaos_beauty_klinik

Found this Hall of Justice mural from Superman with names attached for yours and my future reference....

@schulzmuseum.bsky.social hasn't posted this strip from 1968 on here yet, but 11 year old me was pleasantly surprised to learn that he had the same birthday as Snoopy!

Hmm. Set in Carmel-by-the-Sea? Okay, I'm interested. In 1926? Even better. Involves a screenwriter? Good, sounding good. And a magical sourdough starter? Yeah, okay, sign me up.

@annaleen.bsky.social with @mdbell79.bsky.social at @changinghands.bsky.social talking about Automatic Noodle.

Looking forward to seeing @annaleen.bsky.social at @changinghands.bsky.social Phoenix location Thursday night at 6:30 pm AZ time.

After a five-day halt due to a lack of supplies, our team at WCK’s Deir al-Balah Field Kitchen has resumed limited hot meal service in Gaza. #ChefsForGaza (1/3)

You asked for it, you got it. Here’s the full mural honoring the History of Metahumans in the DCU adorning the Hall of Justice in #Superman.

Today is my birthday! It kinda snuck up on me tbh. If you wanna do something nice for me, please RSVP for my upcoming tour: www.charliejaneanders.com/events Or pre-order my weird heartfelt book: buttondown.com/charliejane/... Thank you <3

So...I wrote a release day blog post (finally) and uh, it might not be what you were expecting but I'm kind of Going Through It over here right now, so here goes nothing. www.cheriepriest.com/blog/getting...

I ran into Wil Wheaton at Powell's in Portland. He was checking out the gaming stuff, I was browsing the SF/F books. He was the one who recognized me (I had organized Wil Wheaton Rock Band for Phoenix ComiCon). Both of us were randomly in Portland for different reasons.

I can confirm the PBS Passport is a very good deal for $5/month or $2.50/month if you do yearly. Thousands of hours of top notch content. NOVA is great. The new Ken Burns doc on Leonardo da Vinci is excellent. You can sign up at the link below! www.pbs.org/passport/lea...
