For him, their laughter was the last thing he ever heard After him, their laughter continued long into the night

So if reality is fractal, if the reason we can't see past the quantum foam is that it's our universe's boundary line with the next one over, it makes sense to picture time and space as a collection of 0th dimensional compressed data points.

So if I've grasped the science correctly, the Wormhole Aliens from the Bajoran Celestial Temple are an example of a 6th-dimensional lifeform: experiencing time and space as a continuous casual flow, but with the senses to perceive possible concurrent casual flows in lower universal structures.

My hair looks like a pigeon feather that's been run over by a few cars and then left out in the rain

I love that like, roaches will survive the nuclear winter, roaches were one of the first life forms on the planet and a roach colony is in every house and we've destroyed the planet and like no one has realized the roaches farmed us, forced us down an evolutionary path to ensure their permanency.

Matt Smith as the odious Mister Collins is *perfection* itself. Nothing will ever beat Tom Hollander, but Matt Smith is carrying the yoke admirably.

Pride & Prejudice & Zombies is more fun than it has any right being.

My oldest and most reliable hard drive is starting to tick now. I'm frantically backing up my content to other drives as fast as I can, but I really need to buy a new one come payday. If it ain't one thing it's another!

My Love Heather and I in South Dakota! 💜🩵

Project Hail Mary was freaking awesome. Very faithful adaptation. Amaze amaze amaze!

We landed in Denver but the power's out to the airport so we're all stuck in the plane.

For various reasons I just had to go back and re-read my 2018 story "The Farm." It's about a newspaper journalist being edited to death by replicas of Twitter bots. www.wired.com/story/future... It's jarring how we leapfrogged this and went straight to letting bots write the actual articles.

reshade pack where the only thing it does is layer "Unregistered Hypercam 2" over the top of the gameplay

They should have just called this adaptation of Wuthering Heights "Heathcliff+Catherine" and set it in the modern day and given everyone guns

Been up since four packing and loading stuff in the u-haul. Moving day is halfway over! Now I have to get all the stuff up the mountain and unloaded again and I'll be HOME!

In our modern age of AI, it's fascinating to me watching the Dune movies. It's blatantly obvious the great houses are all using forbidden technology, from Irulan's diary dictation down to Baron Harkonnen's life support. And they're all aware of it too, it's an open secret they close their eyes to.

Ya hya chouhada

"Sire, we sent a platoon of Harkonnen warriors into the deep desert to seek out the Fremen dogs. Shai-Hulud ate all of them." "All of them?" "All of them." "What about the platoon you sent out last week to look for the Atreides boy?" "Also eaten by the worm, milord."

Holding the vape in so no vape comes back out again like some kind of Bene Gesserit witch transmuting poison

I'm finally catching up on Dune Prophecy. So it seems this is the story of the Ersatz Haderach.

In case any of you all need a scream: youtu.be/iXY93aMLG7s?...

This is *incredible* interestingengineering.com/innovation/o...

Y'know, never once in the movie Equilibrium is it stated that this is Earth. This movie feels INCREDIBLY Firefly 'Verse-coded, down to the populace being controlled by chemicals.

G'morning, y'all! Proof of life and whatnot.

If you, like me, have been agonizing over the Epstein files for years now, waiting for these heinous criminals to just get off Scot free, well, you've probably wished that your could just get your hands on those files yourself. Wait no longer. github.com/yung-megafon...

You took Bud Cort and James Van Der Beek but you let the Turtle go AGAIN?!? You know he's not ACTUALLY a real turtle, right? We just call him that for funsies, you can take him any time you want, no one will mind!

I got attacked by a pitbull last week. It didn't bite me, but it head-butted me in my broken back twice and re-ruptured the busted disc. Everything is agony now. And the dog's owner is treating me like I'm in the wrong. FOR GIVING HER GRACE. FOR SHOWING HER DANGEROUS PIT MERCY. I hate it here.

If you watch nothing else today, this week.

>Dick Cheney wasn't in the Epstein Files >He did all that for the love of the game

Ever since about 2003 when Hot Topic and Myspace and LiveJournal and DeviantArt went online there's been this pervasive TSUNAMI of mental illness OCs online, each of them Tim Burtoney and twee and cinnamon rolley and God DAMN IT, is that not what mental illness is.

Prediction for The Pitt: the little kid that put the beads up his nose has encephalitis and when Brown Nose popped the beads out he exposed himself. That's why he screwed up with the glass shard and why other doctors are also starting to feel sweaty and anxious. It's spreading.

Pretty fucked up that every time one of us said "we want equality" they gave us a purity test to see if they could lump us in with "white passing" as if white was the metric for equality and not equality itself I'm Irish, damn it I remember you called us dirty

Here's my pitch for Sinners 2: the twins' cousins Woke and Wack (both deftly played by Hannibal Burress) show up for revenge in a bluesy retelling of the Song of Solomon, this time with all the Draculas you can shake a stick at.

RIP Chromebook You weren't the best, but you lasted about a third the length of my other laptops

The silver lining with Jared Leto as Skeletor is he loves method acting. Does anyone know if Johnny Depp still has any of that magic face melting acid from his Fear and Loathing days? Jared has need of a bit of it.

And now the moment we've all been waiting for: the actual legit groundwork for imposing summary execution in the street if we don't, say, say a certain party slogan or give a visual sign of party support of some sort like a salute or an item of clothing.

The only thing that can stop a bad gun is 30-50 feral guns

It doesn't even make sense wtf is wrong with them

So the new Predator movie is totally Disney's retcon prequel to the origins of the Yuzhon Vong, right? (No spoilers, he only just acquired the monkey critter)

I've watched more Wars than Trek across my whole 30+ years of life. More wars movies and tv shows. But as a Space Fiction enjoyer and after only 3 episodes of DS9, I must declare a side: Star Trek is the better series

the battery life on my remarkable has decreased over time

So either Una or La'an is going to be the one that ends up taking Pike's place getting horribly burned by radiation at the end of Strange New Worlds, I can't be the only one that sees what they've set up here, right? If it's La'an, we get our Wrath of Khan/Spock mirror. Una would just regenerate.

So if Star Trek represents the Cold War, and TNG is the formation of the UN, and DS9 is clearly Korea/Vietnam, then Voyager would be T.E. Lawrence being whooshed away in the desert and going native on behalf of Royal Brittania. Maybe that's why Disco didn't work as well. No historical analogue.

Me: wow, season 1 of The Pitt was intense. I bet season 2 is gonna start off with fireworks because it's the fourth of July. The Pitt season 2: cuts a guy in half with a pair of scissors, pumps blood all over the floor Me: fireworks
