Save me from people who don't include a phone number in their email signature. You know sometimes a phone call is gonna solve it way faster than a gazillion emails in text messages.

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.

This 2026 season of Black Mirror is really trite so far. You think they’d dig deeper for more interesting story lines.

Nicolás Maduro Charged With Felony Oil Possession
Are we 100% sure the Wikipedia article on Maduro isn't talking about the US?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicol%C...
![Quote from Wikipedia article: "Maduro is widely considered to be leading an authoritarian government characterized by electoral fraud, human rights abuses, corruption, and severe economic hardship. Between 2013 and 2023, Venezuela dropped 42 places in the Press Freedom Index.[19] According to estimations by the United Nations (UN) and Human Rights Watch, under Maduro's administration, more than 20,000 people have been subject to extrajudicial killings and seven million Venezuelans have been forced to flee the country.[20][21][22] The UN Fact-Finding Mission on Venezuela concluded that the country's justice system independence has declined; the mission also identified frequent due process violations, including political external interference and the admission of evidence through torture has been alleged.[23][24][25] Many Venezuelan television channels are controlled by the state, and information unfavourable to the government is not covered completely.[26] "](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:pgbdg5o2qguw5dp2nzybekvl/bafkreicc4h2x4ippxx7zuqtlshhmrm6iap7whatghok57zbhz5nerbikny@jpeg)

Fun fact: Years ago I signed a contract for "The Big One: An Oral History of the First Interstellar War" and then World War Z came out, was huge and we shelved it. Recently I wondered if it was time to revisit the concept AND NOW I SEE THIS UGH WHY MAX BROOKS WHY

Gonna nuke my entire TBR list and start over. So many of the titles on it are from years ago, when I was interested in topics I haven't thought about since. I'll start fresh with books I've recently purchased but haven't touched yet, as well as sequels of books I enjoyed this year. #Booksky 💙📚

Argh. I will never understand the "I broke my yearly book-reading record" people!
Instead, how about "I enjoyed X books this year?"
