For my friends on the skyline: The official Context Merch clubhouse is open!

As a thank you for being here, tees (S-XL) are always just $16, and larger sizes are discounted too!
Come say hi! ✨👇
contextmerch.dashery.com
let me know what you think!

A person with tattooed arms models a dark gray t-shirt. The shirt features a vibrant, Art Nouveau stained-glass window design of the Great Priest Cthulhu, who waits dreaming in his house at R'lyeh. Below the ornate portrait is the faithful cultist's chant: "Iä! Iä! Cthulhu fhtagn!"

A person models a dark t-shirt for the perpetually misunderstood undead. A charmingly grim lich presents its horned skull, framed by the text "IT'S JUST MY RESTING LICH FACE." It's not a scowl; it's just the side effect of advanced necromancy.

A brown t-shirt laid flat on a wood surface. The design features the fossilized remains of a long-neck dinosaur, providing the devastating context for this paleontological find with the quote: "SOMEBODY ATE ALL THE TREE STARS"—a phrase that has been emotionally compromising millennials since 1988.

@straczynski.bsky.social it took me starting my rewatch of Babylon 5 in order to find out that

1. You are on bluesky

2. You wrote so many things that I've loved and I never knew your name.

So that's a following...

my god you have a literal war horse... so jealous!!

Kennef @kennef.bsky.social · 16h

Listen save me a spot, I was chatting with somebody the other day about nostalgia and the internet and I told them that my ICQ number was four digits long....

They literally said

"I'm going to be honest with you, I have no idea what you just said"😭

Happy birthday Ali, you always look fabulous so I don't really need to say anything about that.

Hey Friends!

I've been rationing my spoons so that I could get some cleaning done today and prep for a nurse practitioner's visit at my apartment to evaluate me for maybe some help from a home health aide and such. I hope this thing works out. 😐

I would be doing more right now except I've got to go do labs for two doctors this morning and I'm trying to get ready well before I need to go lol

anyone want to have a Babylon 5 rewatch? Because I'm thinking I want to see Babylon 5 again…

a man with a leopard print on his face and the words oooooh yes

Alt: GIF of the Narn ambassador, G'Kar, with a look of pure delight. His ecstatic "Oooooh, YES" is clearly his answer to the question, "Want to re-watch five years of epic speeches, political intrigue, and personal suffering?"

Somebody posted a picture of a lampreys mouth and I was like, that would make a nice fleshlight for him.

Just remember kids, it takes just one negative experience to knock out the wins of weeks of hard-earned success.

Please try not to let assholes take your wins and stomp them on the fucking ground. It's rude.

So yesterday I had laser therapy on my left eye and had to wear a patch for like 6 hours. All day today now that I've had the patch off I just wanted to put it back on, mostly because my eyeball was leaking... Not so much tearing up but actually running down my face in a stream.

Fuck

Today I make a choice to rise up under the power of My own drive to overcome my challenges.. .

And also choose to deny the words that my brain tells me people are saying about me behind my back.

Lastly, I warm myself with the spite I have for those who assume they know me from a single post

I saw Ani in Syracuse New York at a borders books and music in the mall and I had no guts to go up and tell her I was a fan. 😭

thanks for pointing this out. I purchased this as part of a stock vector subscription and I generally don't endorse GenAI for the same reasons you mentioned. But sometimes these companies don't have great tools to filter out AI stuff, and I missed it.
so yeah I will take it down.

I Love her Incryptid series so much! I tried the first October day book but my daughter's name is gillian, And I had to stop it as soon as I saw the name cuz I have issues.

But honestly if it's got supernatural hiding out in plain sight in the modern world I probably dig it.

Kennef @kennef.bsky.social · 2d

All right, I'm hardcore Stan for urban fantasy everything from Charles Delint, Chuck wendig, Sheanan McGuire, T. Kingfisher, Juliet McKenna ETC.

Kevin hearne is also fantastic and all of these authors I find handle their characters in nuanced and balanced fashion which I completely appreciate.

I would have a ton of suggestions, but I have to ask what genre or genres you have a strong affinity to so that I can focus, or more to the point hyper focus

I feel like they missed an opportunity when they called it #booksky and not #booktism 😂

A spooky graphic on a black t-shirt. A sinister, blue-skinned witch in a nurse's uniform holds an unsettlingly large syringe. The darkly humorous text around the image reads, "Just gonna feel a little pinch!"

A witty graphic on a dark t-shirt being modeled. A mysterious witch literally stirs a bubbling cauldron while adding a potion from a bottle. The mischievous text above and below the witch states, "I LIKE TO STIR THE POT."

A whimsical, pastel-colored graphic on a dark t-shirt. A playful witch with flowing hair flies on a broomstick, framed by a large spiderweb and bats. The fun and empowering text, in pink and blue, reads, "GIRLS DON'T LIKE BOYS, GIRLS LIKE WITCHES AND HALLOWEEN."

A blasphemous and nerdy graphic on a dark grey t-shirt. The great old one, Cthulhu, is depicted in the reverent style of a cathedral's stained glass window, complete with tentacles, wings, and a halo. The cultist's chant below reads, "Iä! Iä! Cthulhu fhtagn!"

musical inspiration for Halloween is here!
🧟 Your Favorite Martian's "Zombie Love Song" has really reanimated my creative spirit. Honestly, it's pretty infectious. You could say it got my creative juices... flowing. 😉 Give it a listen, if you dare!
