I used to get the greatest faces when someone would say "I'm not a practicing Catholic," and I'd congratulate them on going pro. ;)

Elon Musk, "These lovely small towns in England, Scotland and Ireland, they've been living their lives quietly. They're like hobbits"

"And so one day, 1,000 people show up in your village of 500 and start raping the kids"

"This has now happened, God knows how many times in Britain"

Perfect October day so I headed to Haunted Burrow Books, a Seattle bookstore specializing in horror. Signed copies of the Nightmare Quest of April May and Arcane Gamble of Harvey Walters from @aconytebooks.bsky.social. Look for them in the local authors bookcase. Perfect bookstore for Halloween.

Trump is now attempting to fire the head of the U.S. Copyright Office in retaliation for a report that suggested some copyrighted works used to train generative AI models would likely require licensing.

Oddly, this spun through my head and now I want Kelsey Grammar to do the voice of Jervis "Mad Hatter" Tetch or Maxie Zeus in animation...

Such a great one-two punch of comics (though now I'm blanking if it was an X-Men annual, some special, or ? I know the first part was a New Mutants annual...too damned many years ago when I could buy all the comics I wanted each month

Had the chance to go see that last night but couldn't afford the time, as I'd gone to see BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN at the theater on Tuesday with my daughter (her first time seeing it at all, my first on big screen). It was advertised and very tempting but I've got to catch up on my word counts!

Damn, I'm getting sadder by the moment, learning how many of my old friends and colleagues are at this year's #GameHoleCon but it's not to be. I'm chained to my keyboard ala a ghost of Marley's acquaintance, generating words for future reasons to visit the show.

Have fun, Sean & all ex-TSR folk!
