Ford was aggressively uninterested.

I wonder if I smell different after a year and a half on peritoneal dialysis. I have to use antibacterial soap when showering to reduce the risk of catheter site infection. That's got to be messing with something, right? nkr.org/KRN489

April has been a slow one. Don't get me wrong, we're fine, the bills are all paid, it's all good. But it's been slow. Might be our worst month for the online shop in 4 years - for many reasons, but Donald Trump ain't helping. Would anyone like to buy a book?

Just ordered a book, maybe you should too? Loads of signed copies to browse!

Lovely waxing gibbous moon tonight.

When your timeline needs a cleanse, bleach and a couple of hours of boiling in washing soda... At least there is "Leonard Enjoy with his 1964 Buick". Thanks to @michaelwarburton.bsky.social No really - THANK YOU! 💜

For those curious, here are the blurbs 👀

Arthur struggled to his feet and hugged himself apprehensively. Hideous alien shapes seemed to throng about him, the air was thick with musty smells which sidled into his lungs without identifying themselves, and a low irritating hum kept his brain from focusing.

Arthur stared into his beer.

because some of you are waaaaaayyyy too young to even know what I am talking about ... meet Eliza. I've listened to this song a million times, and it still brings so much joy to hear it. 💖

Guys... please, stay alive for the books you haven't read, the anime you haven't finished, and the stray cats you haven't petted yet. Stay alive for the smell of rain, your morning coffee, the songs that will become your new favorites, and the versions of yourself you haven't met yet

Love this galaxy. I wrote about it many years ago. @geckzilla.bsky.social does amazing work. www.syfy.com/syfy-wire/a-...

🔭 This timelapse shows DESI scanning the sky from Kitt Peak. Its efficiency enabled completion of the original survey footprint (in red) ahead of schedule. Moving circle shows where DESI points. 47M+ galaxies mapped so far → the largest 3D map of the Universe ever made. Will continue until 2028.

Centaurus A never gets even 14 degrees above my horizon. I have a hill to my south and it just barely clears it. Here's a photo of it with my Celestron Origin and you can see the hill with blurry trees on it at the bottom of the image. @rami.spaceaustralia.com has a MUCH better view. ❤️ his video. 🔭

Very happy that a good number of my #books were on sale at #StrangeCentral today.
