Thanks! How did I not try that? I should be asleep, but I’ve gotta try it right now.

Hey, @johnaugust.bsky.social, I’m finding Birdigo a fab escape from the fascist apocalypse, but for the avian life of me can’t figure out how to make songs work and apply them on letters and what not. I’m sure it’s something ridiculously simple, but what am I missing?

I can’t remember, was the “Shield of the Americas” a Marvel or DC team-up?

Therapy Unguent was my college prog rock band.

How about any salves or unguents?

Word nerds, assemble! It's the new CMOS Q&A . . .

I want Cronenberg’s THE FLY in 4K, is that so wrong?

Saw that clip of Melania at the UN and finally realized what she and Trump have in common: They’re both barely able to read.

Unfortunately, they’re Chad Roosevelt and Biff Churchill, who were caught selling past-date TV dinners out of the back of a van they called a food truck.

Excitedly diving into my copyedit of @melissaolthoff.bsky.social's TEMPERED BY FIRE today. Quite enjoyed the first book, RISE FROM RUIN, so I've been looking forward to this.

Everything’s gong to hell under mad king Trump, but here’s a rabbit in my yard, especially for @davidmack.pro.

Writing, Editing, Reading Update, February Edition Although the mad king Trump’s lawless thugs have been slowly leaving Minnesota, the scars left by the “surge” will linger painfully. People of color—regardless of immigration status—wil…

I've blogged, as I do from time to time.

Weather app screen grab showing it’s 2F, but feels like 10.

But, hey, it FEELS like 10! It’s like a heat wave!

Fascist fucks.

Despite Jett Reno's apparent disdain for the fair city of Duluth, here's some Star Trek merch on display in the Bookstore at Fitger's, a fine indie bookshop in Duluth, Minnesota. #IYKYK #StarfleetAcademy

Judge Cannon is a singular figure in the rise of the fascist Trump regime. It’s hard to imagine how she could have done better for Trump if he were sending her boatloads of cash.

If you shout “Rise to the occasion!” in DC, Jeffries and Schumer turn and look behind them to try to see who you’re talking to.

Brilliant!

IDW Trek news recap: 2 new ongoing series: Star Trek ft Captain Seven, by @ifyoucantwell.bsky.social & Star Trek: Zero Point ft Captain Raffi Musiker, by @charliejane.bsky.social, plus 2 one-shots: Star Trek: Celebrations & a 60th Anniversary Special—too many writers and artists to list in a post!

There have been a lot of well-deserved shout-outs to Apocalypse Now and The Godfather after the passing of the great Robert Duvall, but don't forget his turn as the original Frank Burns in the film version of M*A*S*H!

Congrats! All the Trek comic news today has me giddy as a schoolboy.

WHAT?!

The technical meteorological term for right now in northern Minnesota is “windy AF.”

Extraterrestrial pod-person plant masquerading as a tomato, waiting to replace a whole family. I mean, that's just science.

Clothes Make the Man and Other Crimes: Four Short Crime Stories In "The Sun Dress," a dress, an affair, and a gun lead to a surprising and explosive confrontation. Officer Peggy Roberts makes a traffic stop and hopes to catch a killer in "Clothes Make the Man." Th...

A normal post for abnormal times: IDW's announcement of a new crime imprint made me think of this mini collection of four short-short crime stories that I don't post much about, what with being mostly a sci-fi kind of guy. But I enjoy dabbling in a variety of genres...

Miranda doesn't seem to be streaming anywhere, or at least on any of my services, and that's just wrong. I mean, BritBox, come on.

The rails are off, I zig when you expect me to zag.

@unamccormack.bsky.social's got you covered.

I'm editing a Deep Space Nine novel, but I'm listening to the Star Trek: The Motion Picture soundtrack. I'm a loner, Dottie. A rebel.

Yikes.
