I don't often plug stuff here, but... 1) I do have to eat 2) I'm really proud of a set of stories and characters I started with *brand new* at the beginning of the year. This is the first story: ko-fi.com/s/ef5a7b7880

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Ep. 31 - The Krytos Trap We're back to @michaelastackpole.bsky.social's bangers. Does the NR have to let an innocent white boy hang to satisfy the alien hordes? Is Corran Horn the most special boy in the galaxy? Is Bossk green or brown? sites.libsyn.com/567955/31-th...

I got to get caught up with Alan Dean Foster at the Poisoned Pen bookstore last evening. Hadn't seen Alan for years, so it was good to see him and chat. He was there to discuss his new book Lost on Paradise.

Someone at Bioware leaks this hours after their whole studio is erased and the game is canceled. In an act of open rebellion against the Jared Kushner private equity firm that murdered them. Outstanding. youtu.be/o0mTqc3JdJ0?...

A despicable ad from Vivek Ramaswamy who is a despicable person. Desperate Republicans have run some horrible, dishonest ads to distract from their failures in office, but maybe none worse than this one.

The Caucasian Shepherd Dog is a livestock guardian dog native to the countries of the Caucasus region and one of the world's largest dog breeds. This is its size with humans for scale. Original post

Happy 60th birthday to Jon Favreau! The director behind ‘Iron Man’ & ‘Iron Man 2’

Sure. It was the HAT. Right.

Victor was my favourite #Battletech character from when I was a kid, and in terms of classical era characters, is still my favourite. He was such a favourite of mine, I named my first pet, a dwarf-hamster after him. Just to say, @michaelastackpole.bsky.social has influenced me for like, 30+-years.
