This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Managed to finish Shirley Jackson's We Have Always Lived in the Castle, finishing off my goal of reading 12 books in 2025 on the very last day of the year. I was interested in reading some gothic fiction, and this was a pretty compelling and quick read, with a pretty unnerving PoV. #booksky 💙📚

![Tumblr post by user kalira , dated Oct 20, 2024:
I say this very gently and with much love, and I say it not only as a writer myself but as someone who has been privy to many 'but how can they not know that work is amazing! 1 love it! I gushed about it to every friend I have and recced in x, y, z servers and [...]'
The writer or artist doesn't know this.
They have no way of knowing that you found their work beautiful and lifechanging or even just a bright spot on a bad day or that you think about it every day or that you told all your friends about it, and those things are great but we have no way of knowing them! You may not be doing it intentionally, but you're excluding the writer or artist from the community feeling of fandom that you are carrying on (that is so great! fandom is a community! continue to talk and play!) even with their work.
Please, please just drop a line even that is "oh gosh I absolutely love this work, I screamed to every one of my
friends about it when I first read/saw it!" even if you don't
have the spoons to share more of the specifics that made you flail at your friends or what you said in private. (Though if you do, we will love you forever for it.)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:avvpb4ypfttlslmobsjqt7qq/bafkreibc6zd4nfz77j3teab5leeumgh3dttk5j7vv33e3agrspts7n23pe@jpeg)

Loved Nettle & Bone, a great take on a "dark fairy tale," and very wittily written. It is the first book I have read by T. Kingfisher / Ursula Vernon, but if this is the kind of writing and story I can expect from her, it won't be the last. #booksky 💙📚

As Hannah Arendt put it: "The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists." Undermining that distinction will be a lasting legacy of generative AI.

This holiday season (and beyond), don't forget that there are so many little ways to be kind and considerate and thoughtful and good that can make such a massive difference to other people. Your tiny gesture or little act can really make someone's day.

I have a scooter. I can walk. I can't, however, walk through 80 miles of airport. I can walk onto an airplane or through hallways. I can't walk the .5 mile to the convention center.
People, get smarter, it's embarrassing at this point.

I learned about Roadside Picnic through the TTRPG Heart's list of inspirations, and I can certainly see the influences. Great concept, a pretty breezy read, and it really came together for me in the final chapter.📚💙

Israel has made Jews around the world infinitely more unsafe. Antisemitism is on the rise, and its insanity inducing to see leftists and neonazis agreeing that Jews are the problem in the wake of a mass shooting — when the core issue is Imperialism and settler colonialism.

Historian of eugenics here. I don't normally like to retweet bad arguments, but this is such a fundamental misunderstanding of eugenics, I think it's important to point out. I don't have time to debunk all of the ways this is inaccurate, but I'll highlight a few things and then recommend some books🧵
