Honestly, if I could make a full-time living designing worlds for authors, I would. I would *love* to help you design your world, especially for the good of democracy. (And yes, I have a WIP with an...interesting world, maybe sometime my AuDHD brain will focus enough to finish it.)

Bree is pulling this one out for a moment: Dr. Robin Bond literally *built* the world for our new fantasy for us. And I mean I said, "I want two moons, one with a 50 day cycle and one with a 10 day cycle" and she went away & came back with a formula to generate a celestial calendar & images & OMG

Also also, Hidden Falls Regional Park is mostly Mississippi River right now.

Also, the dam.

I know a lot of people have already posted pretty much this same photo of the falls, but … wow. Absolutely raging.

Random factoid: The oldest working door in Britain is in Westminster Abbey. This door was put into service in the 1050s. In a few more decades it turns 1000 years old.

Good morning, Waffles says they don’t pay you enough to care that much.

The video keeps stuttering for me, and who knows how long it will even be up before NBC pulls it, but ... Sydney Mclaughlin-Levrone is very fast. She does the 400m hurdles in less time than it takes me to walk from the fridge to the sofa. www.youtube.com/watch?v=213-...

Reminder that lots of people you encounter are hanging on to a thread by their fingernails so unless it's psychedelics, therapy, a meaningfully viable organizational roadmap, a hug, or some other real support, maybe ask yourself if what you're about to offer is helpful or if you're just startin shit

The Witcher III score is very good. And, yes, I did grow up listening to the Riverdance soundtrack.

How I introduce myself in an icebreaker session

This is amazing and weird. I'm glad it didn't work out, because both Faith No More's later incarnations and Hole are better than this, but I kinda dig it. There is something oddly similar to early Siouxsie and the Banshees about it. 🤷

I'd like a reverse of this that turns children's books into long and complicated novels

I can’t think of a clever caption for this. It just breaks my fucking heart.

RIP, Martin Mull. Clue will forever be one of my favorite films because of the unbeatable cast.

I never knew the Super Bowl got its name from Wham-O’s super ball toy. “Kinda silly, isn’t it? I’m not proud of it. But nobody’s come up with anything better.”

Super Bowl Owes Its Name to a Bouncy Ballweb.archive.org Professional football's championship game owes its name to an unlikely source: the ultra-bouncy balls that entranced American children in the 1960s and 1970s.

People think of the 60s as being wild, and they were. Mais, look at this ad from 1961. 😮

My favorite band is the Imagine Dragons cover band Literal Dragons, whose members consist of four wyverns with taped on extra arms to make them technically ‘Dragons’

Broadcom is in the process of giving the VMware folks they acquired a choice, either come into the office or get laid off, and I don't have exact figures but a hella lot of them are choosing option two!

Dell gave employees an ultimatum to return to office some of the week or accept they were never eligible for a promotion ever again. Half the employees shrugged and stayed remote. arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024...

Every time someone sends me an email, I throw my head back and go, "I'M TIRED," out loud, and then I take a nap.
