There are signals from various sources that Russia knows it is going to lose in its illegal invasion of Ukraine. We must prevent Donald Trump from assisting Vladimir Putin any further with one of his bullshit deals. Keep the pressure on.

I like that design. It gives off Captain Kirk on an away mission -vibes.

Dieses Jahr klappt es leider zeitlich nicht. Ich komme auf jeden Fall im Herbst nach Frankfurt und zum BuCon. Mal schauen, ob ich es auch im Sommer noch nach Deutschland schaffe.

“If the United States is at war, then Pete Hegseth is a war criminal. If the United States is not at war, then Pete Hegseth is a murderer.”

Die durch Einsatz einer ausbeuterischen KI erstellten Bilder ERSETZEN gerade historischen Dokumente in der Öffentlichkeit, denn - Plottwist - auch wenn hier gegenteiliges behauptet wird, es gibt von Amelie Kretzer ein Foto. Nur sieht sie nicht aus, wie ein Tim Burton goes Pretty Little Liar Model!

I like this one better, but I am always drawn to a combination of yellow and green.

You can separate the art from the artist, but have you tried separating that artist from the income that allows them to do the things that require you to seperate the art from the artist in the first place?

I remember that you and others (was it Falko?) liked that show a lot, so I gave it a try. :D

A bit late to the party, but during the last weeks we binged "Ted Lasso", and I loved it to bits. Such a great ensemble, a lot of episodes had more screwball comedy-drama gold than whole movies, the soundtrack was pitch-perfect and to me the ending was almost as iconic as that of "Six Feet Under".

Palantir klagt gegen die Republik Unsere Recherchen zum Unternehmen haben internationales Echo ausgelöst.

Fest steht auch: Die Tatsache, dass ein global agierender 300-Milliarden-Dollar-Konzern juristisch vorgeht gegen ein kleines Schweizer Medien-Start-up, sagt etwas aus darüber, wie nervos wir Palantir gemacht haben.

Es muss viel für sie auf dem Spiel stehen.

I don't know why BLACK RIVER ORCHARD is on sale for two bucks at your favorite electronic bookmonger, but it is, so if you want a story of suburban folk horror (shut up it is too a thing) where a creepy cult of apple-eaters take over a town and begin, um, changing? Welp, go forth and get after it.

finished reading his new trilogy.
"The Imaginiation Chamber" is partly for completion - I try to collect everything from Pullman's "His Dark Materials"-universe, but also because there are beautiful gems to be found within its few pages. All in all it's a happy book hoarder day for me! 😊

an amazing flex by Christopher Golden and Brian Keene who gathered so many diverse writers displaying the incredibly wide range of contemporary horror fiction.
The audio book of "The Book of Dust" by Phillip Pullman I had also listened to already, but wanted to read it again, now that I'll soon have
