Need to re-record one of my original tunes (due to a new middle verse), so I suppose I'll have to book some time at one of my county libraries. Yup - library. One in my County in Georgia has a video studio and an audio studio, along with three small audio studios, free to use for card holders. Cool.

Had a strange, sad dream last night. I know it was just a dream but the melancholy of the dream has stayed with me throughout the day.

Don't give up on your dreams. Somewhere out there is a dilapidated manor house on the moors that needs a cranky caretaker, or a crumbling cliffside castle that needs someone to walk the parapets above the sea, pining for the ghosts of lost love.

Don't put off until tomorrow what you could do today. Like fleeing the library detectives in a stolen speedboat, with the skull of Agatha Christie grinning madly on the seat by your side.

Facebook is showing me ads for T shirts that say “GAY SINCE WHAM!” and ads for apartments for rent in Washington State. For the record I have no plans to move out of state, and thanks to Tarzan I was gay before Wham! — although I do remember being mesmerized by some of their videos on MTV.

A fun and thoughtful gift from friend Cliff Biggers, who knows I’ve been a Perry Mason fan since I was a kid. There was a short-lived Perry Mason comic strip in the 1950s, and this book has 4 complete murder mysteries that appeared in the comics section of newspapers 1950-1951. Thanks, Cliff!

I know I've been loud about this, but this show means so much, supports a talented cast & crew of queer, trans, non-binary artists & allies, for $13 you can watch from anywhere in the world, but any donation helps make this production reality: Meaningful work exemplifying Existence is Resistance. 🖤
We are two thirds funded with 13 days to go! Let’s DO THIS, babes. Help us get over the finish line. www.kickstarter.com/projects/tha...

Brachiosaurus by Czech painter and paleoartist Zdeněk Burian (1905-1981) Now believed to be historically incorrect (Brachiosaurus was terrestrial, not aquatic) but the artwork is still a classic.

Look, I'm willing to try anything at this point.

Things I wish for you: That you always feel safe and warm, and that you will someday own a haunted castle on a forgotten shore. One that's filled with restless ghosts, indifferent cats, and secret libraries within libraries.

The Crooked Man is my favorite Hellboy series from the comic books. It’s Appalachian folk horror, which I love. This new movie will be a horror movie starring Hellboy, not a typical Hellboy movie. With @cgolden.bsky.social as one of the screenwriters, this will be awesome. youtu.be/NMT1q1BOs6Q?...

WTF?
J. Michael Straczynski naming names in the afterword of The Last Dangerous Visions for…reasons? This seems wildly irresponsible and self-serving at the very least. Redacted are the name of eleven “diverse” writers.

Just saw a little kid about 9 years old wearing a Miskatonic University cap at the Sarah McLachlan concert. This gives me hope for the future.
