If anyone's got things they need a writer for, let me know. October's going to be a weird month as finances are running low and unemployment's not going to make up the gap, so anything that'll help work-wise is greatly appreciated!

Putting this out there too, if you're organizing a comics anthology, I'd love to be a part of it! I like writing shorts!

My schedule's such that I can't really organize another myself rn, but if anyone is looking to make ones for a cause and needs an editorial eye, I can try to make that work!

I’m sure printers receive their firmware updates via Pluto given the time they take to be “received”!!

One of the most iconic videos I’ve ever filmed—stepping outside our cabin in Venetie, Alaska and seeing an auroral substorm occurring directly overhead. This was a legendary view.

"Farage claimed last year to have “bought a house” in his constituency, but the property is actually owned in the name of his partner, meaning he legally avoided higher-rate stamp duty on the purchase of an additional home – given that he already owns other properties."

Just wait until the BBC, Sky, Mail, Telegraph, Express, Sun, and GBeebies get hold of this story of obvious and deliberate tax avoidance!

Yesterday was our author @premeemohamed.com's birthday, and the best present BlueSky could give her would be to track down her fuzzy silver/grey feline-on-the-run Fiasco.

Franca has been found thankfully, but Fiasco remains at large. If you're in the Edmonton area, please keep an eye out for him!🐾

This is the #1 climatologist in the world: James Hansen.

He’s spent 50 years studying what humans are doing to the climate.

He's gone out on a limb time and time again - and been proven right.

His message? It’s far worse than they’re telling you. 🧵

Excuse my ignorance as I have only been to one Worldcon, but as an regular annual event I would have thought that a large folder of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP’s) & Lessons Learned was handed between sites and updated regularly…..or is that just fanciful thinking?
