Chiefs 23, Colts 20 -- FINAL
The 9-2 Broncos have a one-game lead over the Colts for the No. 2 seed and trail the Patriots for the No. 1 seed by a half-game.
Worth noting that if the Patriots & Broncos win out, Denver would win the No. 1 seed via common-opponent tiebreaker.

You come into my house on the day my daughter is to be married, and you ask me to do murder for money, Charlie Brown.
This is the water, and this is the well. Drink full and descend, Charlie Brown.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain, Charlie Brown.

The December Science Fiction World Magazine out of China has a translation of "Beyond Porch and Portal" by me--which is about how Poe created all the worlds he did. Looks like @aptshadow.bsky.social is also front and center on this amazing cover.

Why does A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night look so CREAMY in black and white, what is happening with this film. Mmm. Also, the original Diabolique is my favorite.

A dead sperm whale has washed up on Nantucket for the first time in decades. It’s too big to move — at least until officials figure out a plan.
Dead Sperm Whale on Nantucket Is Too Big to Move, for Now
A local nonprofit said the 52-ton mammal is “far too big, awkward and heavy to remove.” A town official later said it could be dragged out to sea by Thanksgiving.

At jury duty this morning, the clerk who addressed us was thankful for our service, esp. in these times--he made it clear we do not have a king, we have a system that ensures people still get fair trials while so much of the world does not. It was a little remarkable, I gotta say.
