Turns out what they don’t tell you about “Wicked: For Good” is that after the end credits you will feel like you can fight god and win.

It’s once again that time of the year when the choice of metal frames for my glasses, while living in Oslo, feels… questionable…

“A real, genuine, hope chest, carved by Oberon’s own hand from the four sacred woods of Faerie—oak and ash for bracing and balance, rowan and thorn for pattern and protection.” “Rosemary and Rue” by Seanan McGuire LEGO build by me. Inspiration by @seananmcguire.bsky.social's wonderful universe

Yes, microsoft, I agree with you that this is a phishing attempt, good job!

Got my flu shot. Before administering it, the doc asked me “which hand do you write with?” Ma’am, I work on a ‘puter, I use both equally! Anyway, we agreed to go with the left one and shoot in my tattooed dragon in the left wing so we match.

Also, I am pretty sure that Robin Williams was one of the people who were ahead of the curve on the use of his personal likeness after his death, and made sure to include a clause in his contracts that (I am sure about his voice at least) it can't be used in perpetuity after his passing.

I am not kidding when I say that this shit should scare everyone around the globe, as it has the undeniable potential to affect everyone’s health and lifespan

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

A sex-blind admissions policy at selective universities will not go the way that the Trump administration thinks it will.

So… because I listen to a lot of movies' and animations' soundtracks, and because I live in Norway, Tidal does this thing that it regularly plugs chapters of audio books in Norwegian by Disney in "My New Arrivals" and "My Daily Discovery" playlists.

Happy SILVER AND LEAD publication day to @seananmcguire.bsky.social, happy Toby Daye day to the rest of us! Here are some memes I had cooked up and had forgotten about to catch you up to speed with what's up in Faerie up until SILVER AND LEAD.

Плейлистите ми рядко ме изненадват, но понякога… понякога… Anyway, “Автомонтьор” на Азис е класика, която заслужавате да си пуснете днес. 😃

I was joking the other day that I would read even an instruction manual if it was written by Seanan McGuire, and here I am, reading an instruction manual written by @seananmcguire.bsky.social and 21 other evil geniuses… Also, this is your reminder to support your local library.

CATBUS!!

Finding ways to survive in the political, genocidal, fascist and eugenics-inspired hell we're currently living in is getting harder and harder, friends... So, find whatever brings you joy and hold on to it however you can.

happy Sunday, I am back on my bullshit 🏡 a new place means a new oven ⏲️ a new oven means a test bake 🥐 a test bake means croissants or biscuits / 🍪 biscuits are the best way to judge the temperature distribution in an oven, but I felt like making laminated dough, and no one was here to stop me /

вижте, понякога човек просто трябва да си пусне "пуканки за душата" плейлиста, съдържащ хитове като > "Напрао ги убивам" на Гери-Никол и Килата > "Видимо доволни" на Криско и Мария Илиева > "Момиче като мен" на Гери-Никол

Израел се опитва да измие имиджа си на геноциден режим с допускане на малко повече хуманитарни доставки по въздух и земя. Разбира се ще е чудесно ако гладът в Газа приключи, но най-важното нещо, което светът може да направи е никога да не забрави стореното от Израел. 1/3 www.bbc.com/news/live/ck...

seizing life-saving aid for the people they're starving - this is Israel

The pushback against the payment processors due to the Itch/Steam situation is making the news. Lets keep it up. www.ibtimes.co.uk/mastercard-v...

This is embarrassing: "Wikipedia is this economic anomaly. ... It’s magical that people will just volunteer without explicit economic incentives to create artifacts that are meant to share knowledge with everyone in the world" It is an extremely normal human drive! Capitalism is the anomaly!

Soothly, we live in mighty years.

being sick when it’s 36°C outside is just offensive

Децата на приятелите ми израснаха по тия протести. Аз успях да емигрирам два пъти. Тук съм за седмица, и пак няма как да не дойда на протест.

Paris reopens the Seine for swimming after a €1.4 billion clean-up. Three free bathing spots now admit up to 1,000 swimmers a day, ending a 102-year ban thanks to new sewers, rain-storage reservoirs, and daily water-quality tests installed for last year’s Olympics. buff.ly/6K7iKO6 #ShareGoodNewsToo

Sure, everyone knows how great the act of creation is, but do you know how zen the act of destruction is?!

I’ve been struggling with unnecessary perfectionism lately and thought that stabbing a piece of clothing for a few hours might hammer the message home. It might not, but at least now I have it on a t-shirt.

Hello, Bluesky! This is a weird day to go live with this project, but: this is an initiative to add a Translated Speculative Fiction category to the Hugo Awards.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Cynthia Erivo as Dracula on West End?! SIgn me the fuck up!

Sometimes what one needs is to go to their favourite ramen spot, order (and consume) entirely too much edamame and karaage, and write fanfictionin their notes app. It’s me, I’m someone.
