The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is targeting LGBTQ stories. They are trying to control what you see on television. This government overreach is dangerous to the existence of an independent and free media. Take action: glaad.org/fcc

In a Public Notice April 22, 2026, the FCC is asks Americans for comments about whether to create TV ratings to alert viewers to “transgender and gender non-binary programming” & “the discussion or promotion of gender identity themes.” Say NO. Here's the form. glaad.org/fcc/ @glaad.bsky.social

Current location. Where’s Hoss?

Paris, last Sept. I feel like I belong!

I made this video and shared it with my friend *the* Martin (Marty) Kahn who co-created it. #Apple50

Memories of a GUI designer.

Regarding what the film's title would have been had it been made, in this interview with Philip Kaufman in Star Trektennial News 3, no. 21 (May–June 1977), Susan Sackett refers to it in the opening sentence as STAR TREK—THE MOTION PICTURE.

Going through photos from last October's stops in the UK.

Me, in front of San Francisco City Hall, October 21, 2025. I lost those cool sunglasses hours later. Dammit. Photo by @s-dudley.bsky.social

"Mister Spock here. We're intercepting a follow-up message, sir. There are crash survivors on Talos." The gooseneck viewers from the first pilot resemble the 1964 AT&T Picturephone 1, as encountered by the Fact Trek landing party at #SFO. More ➡️ www.facttrek.com/blog/fliptop

Cuz that’s how we roll at the @archive.org

@documentarymakers.bsky.social Does anyone post to this? Are we to share links to documentaries here?

I found this silly photo from way back when. Yes, it's a 12-inch Woody.

This World AIDS Day, we honor the voices and activism that shaped the global fight against HIV/AIDS. "Victory Deferred"—a defining history of the crisis by journalist John-Manuel Andriote—is now an open access edition, free for all to read on the Internet Archive: blog.archive.org/2025/12/01/a...

I am briefly seen in this CNN video today (2:37 in), as per the screenshot. Video ➡️ www.cnn.com/2025/11/16/b...

Have you played #Atari today? How about back in the 14th century? That was in York, UK, about a month ago, outside Gert & Henry's at 2 Jubbergate (aka 4 Jubbergate).

So many places still to visit!

Rando pix from Europe.

I made this silly little clip to accompany this delightfully spooky ditty from 1921. Make sure the sound is on!

This Google Doodle is cute, but it breaks a couple of the Pac-Man rules drilled into me in my Namco days, notably: Pac-Man's mouth shouldn't animate when he's stopped against a wall, and zip-zig passages are generally a no-no. #PacMan

Revised working Map of my recently-completed trip to Europe. Purple means there and back, blue is one way, and yellow is "you can't take a train or motorcar there".

Yesterday was Internet Archive Day in San Francisco, and our big event was streamed live. You can watch it on YouTube here: www.youtube.com/live/9tuPzhT...

Working away at the Internet Archive today. We’re doing our big annual presentation tonight, & it is live-streamed. It’s about an hour long, but if you wanna see what the organization I work for does, including a couple of little videos I did minor edits to. Link to livestream registration below.

Today's Internet Archive Day in San Francisco! This was us yesterday at SF City Hall. Details at link. blog.archive.org/2025/10/22/h...

Yesterday’s view of the end of my European trip.

My brief Ireland 🇮🇪 stop was worth it thanks to this fellow. @seanferrick.bsky.social

Edinburgh for two all-too-short days.

I always feel most at home on a film shoot.

Scotland Achievement Unlocked.

Silliness stops in York en route to Scotland.

York arrival.

Yesterday's stroll (approximate).

Lunch in some Museum British or something.

That’s better. Apple & pecan with cinnamon cream french toast at Lagom.

Good morning. Or it will be when I drink this.

Filling out postcards and ordering the Hangover pancake plate at Madam Pancake in Amsterdam.

The view is so so…great.

It’s pronounced Franken-STEEN.

Only 10 days ago? I seems soooo much longer.

Another item checked off the bucket list. I was really interested in SSTs (SuperSonic Transports) in Jr. High, and today I got to go aboard a Tu-144 at the Technik Museum Sinsheim, DE. The 12 year-old part of me was very excited. #Aviation

List 3 things you can talk about for 3 hours without preparation. 1. Videogames of the Atari age 2. Filmmaking 3. Writing Only 3?

A few days back from France, and this silly song popped into my head on the long bus ride back from Normandy to Paris. 🇫🇷 My sister introduced me to it, maybe in 5th grade. youtu.be/UdSzgJiR4_I?...

No cutesy pix. Visited Utah Beach in Normandy, where my dad first arrived on the continent in 1944.

Bottom to top. We walked to the “second floor” (2nd pic) which is 647 steps, roughly equivalent to a 38 story building. You have to ride an elevator to the top, which would be equivalent to 52 stories.

In the land of Lady Liberty’s birth. The symbolism of the replica of her torch is something I hope her adoptive country remembers.

Wasted the whole day at some French museum.

On the train to Paree, gay or otherwise.
