Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

"All the things that keep you away from your writing are also the things that enrich your writing: your job, your kids, elder care, being involved in your community. All these things enrich your writing. So instead of looking at them as challenges, think of them as your superpower."
"that writers should write every day. And I do think that you should write frequently and regularly, but listen: All the things that keep you away from your writing are also the things that enrich your writing: your job, your kids, elder care, being involved in your community. All these things enrich your writing. So instead of looking at them as challenges, think of them as your superpower. I don’t want to read a book by someone who has nothing to do but write. I don’t want to read a book by someone who’s in their pajamas all day. I want to read a book by someone who is out in the world leading a meaningful life. So if you can just take time to write regularly, the book will get done, the pages will accumulate. But don’t think that your life is keeping you from telling your story."

Female #kakapo Kohengi on her three eggs on Pukenui/Anchor Island today. We don't yet know if they're fertile, but will investigate soon. So far fertility on Anchor is very high: only 8 infertile out of 33 checked. We expect many more infertile eggs though. #kakapo2026 #conservation #birds

New research takes us inside the brain of a 230-million-year-old animal! Scientists used 3D technology and mathematical modeling to reconstruct the brains of pterosaurs and their pre-flight ancestors, the lagerpetids.

This week at The Sick Times, @khaoticaa.bsky.social writes that #LongCOVID advocacy is incomplete without sex workers, and that destigmatizing Black queer sex workers will make the movement stronger. bit.ly/4qfFyv4
Graphic showing an old desktop computer with a pixelated red umbrella, an international symbol for sex worker rights, on the screen. The image’s background is black with white pixels. The text reads, “The Sick Times. Long COVID advocacy is incomplete without sex workers. Destigmatizing Black queer sex workers makes our movement stronger By Khalil (Kae) Dennis.” There’s so much built into our identities [as sex workers] that makes navigating COVID easier. We’re just straightforward, because that’s what we do in sex work. - Raquel Savage Black queer sex worker, therapist, and founder of Zepp Wellness who has Long COVID

Love this from Guillermo del Toro
“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art,” he said. “At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesn’t matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if it’s that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.”

Hands-down one of the best bits in Don Bluth's Anastasia (1997) is when the exiled Dowager Empress of Russia tells Dimitri, a random guy she met 30 seconds ago, "Hey, I've heard of YOU! You're that guy who SUCKS!"
