Just went and edited PS43survives.com to make it more in tune with an archived site. I suppose I was still fantasising about some resurgence of interest, and that might have disappointed people expecting new pages. #comics

Bracing coming off

Bluesky has four kinds of users.

Yay!

Blue bone time

It really was amazing ...

Exorcism might work ...

It's all about confusion to me -- this week where my European customers have jumped times but my East Coast customers have not is ugly. Customer meetings that do not overlap any other week of the year overlap this week.

Unfortunately, this ad isn't running locally.

Saw Wildwood today, loved it, and still feel this way.

We tried "everyone is entitled to an opinion" for three straight decades and all we have to show for it is four thousand cases of measles and a death cult running the government. It's time for people who don't know what they're talking about to shut the fuck up.

Long day

This is the one heartening part of this: Musk shooting himself in the foot with his customer base weakens his grip on the world, if only a little bit.

In every version of this movie I've seen, this character winds up backed against a wall as vicious mutants approach, armed with some pathetic toy he was using as a training device. He then gets ripped apart by the pack. I hope they get the lighting right ... I hate it when it's too dark to see.

Perhaps someone should suggest to him that he remove it in order to improve his photo opportunities.

Can someone explain this to me? The 2-year recurrance rate was 30%, now it's 17.8%. That's a 40.7% reduction. Investors that were expecting a 40% reduction are disappointed? Can they not do arithmetic?

@kww.bsky.social are you into ska covers? 😇 secondhandsongs.com/performance/...

As amazed as I am that Laika is still in business, I wish they would tone down the VFX polish that they give their films. Their model work is impeccable -- it's a shame to cover it up with CGI. www.animationmagazine.net/nl/2026/10/w...

My heart bleeds for the 79-year-old man clinging desperately to a 5400 ft2 split-level ranch in the suburbs. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Yep ... there's nothing distinguish this from "contempt of court". Whether it rises to *criminal* contempt of court is a little more doubtful.

Benign.

He’s right, @hanaatameez.bsky.social

Not seeing enough attention paid to "your or users' " language. It doesn't just kick in when Ford promotes its products on Facebook ... it's when any F150 driver posts a picture of an F150 on Facebook.

I hope Stanley Woodward Jr. and Robert Stander have their Dopp kits packed for a few overnights in jail.

I've sat here trying to think of a way to play this game, but I can't ... my images would be of the Watts Rebellion, RFK lying on the street, Thích Quảng Đức's self-immolation, Phan Thi Kim Phuc running and crying as the napalm burns ... all of which I will spare you images of. The 60s were rough.

It's almost like we shouldn't let a small group of the most venal people on earth control the internet

Why stop there? Bring Back Lake Bonneville!

Found out that a fifth cousin, one Ellen Cwick, lives about a mile away. Twenty-mile drive, though.

I made three days as a dishwasher at a Bonanza in Ames, IA.

Another bowler, Stetson this time. Conner for comparison

I've always assumed that they started with the equivalent of a rotograph of a photo -- that the reason the backgrounds are so detailed is that they chose to let the image processing software that builds the foundation line work for the background run to that level rather than simplify the result.

These polls can be easily misinterpreted. I'm concerned that public schools teach that Christianity has merit. I have neighbours concerned that public schools teach that homosexuals are people. We both show up in the same spot in the poll.

I have my fingers crossed that they are getting lined up for a 25th Amendment action. I'm must have occured to many Republican Congresscritters that ousting Trump today is their best chance to hold seats as it would give many independents an excuse to vote Republican one more tim.

As hokey as the compressed air flying car thing is, I'd pay an extra $5000 for a car that could do that for 15 feet once a day. Then I'd never have to spend the night in a hotel because I couldn't drive home.

Not in a particularly morbid mood, actually, but another in the theme. I don't expect a funeral, but at whatever gathering occurs in recognition of my death, I do expect you to play this song.

Certainly the best use of Russian assets in Europe is to fund Ukraine. Soon Russia abandons its war, the more of its money it keeps ... which is about the only lever they will respond to.

Here's an Elric by Božidar Veselinović, for the interior art of first Serbian editions of the saga in ex-Yu in the late 1970s, published by Prosveta.

The question is not "why has Donald betrayed Ukraine?" The question is "how big a cut of unfrozen Russian assets will Donald get for betraying Ukraine?"

More evidence that in general, atheists are the among the best people on Earth. A quick shout out to Black Protestants, who also scored amazingly well on this test of basic decency.

Juist.

#WriteStuff I'm on a Widow's Bay Weekend planning committee. We're setting up a huge weekend party in May in Rockport, MA, where part of the show was filmed. I live in Rockport. Season 2 begins filming here in March, 2027. I'm psyched! I haven't been this excited about a TV show since The X-Files.

Planting Life in a Dying City is a queernormative fantasy in a world where polyamorous marriage is normal & those without proper family are rejected by society.

It is 10 minutes to bedtime hereabouts. I'm in edits for CG. I'll repost tomorrow morning.

#WriteStuff #SelfPromo Okay, since I've been yammering about my most recent novel and its non-linear timeline and subplots, here you go:

Genuinely, I pity the people who do not realize that they've been brought low. I wish their past selves could see what they've become, and talk some sense into them. "How much would it take," they would ask, "for you to hang out with Nazis who sell kiddie porn?" And they'd be shocked at the answer.
