"All life in the Universe #matters."

"You didn't answer my question, oh Wise One."

"Sorry, what was it again?"

"Are we alone?"

"I stand by what I said."

Lalochezia (del griego "lalia"(habla o balbuceo) y "chezo"(defecar o aliviarse)): Sensación de alivio que se experimenta al usar lenguaje vulgar o grosero para desahogar el estrés o el dolor. Efecto catártico al gritar o proferir palabrotas en momentos de frustración o tensión ➡️ bit.ly/48rMf5x

"I'm finally recovering my #health."

"Well, letting you get bitten byba vampire is not exactly a recovery!"

"My aches are gone, you know? And it's just got... minor inconveniencies."

Some Thanksgiving thoughts...

This year, as we get ready to bring on *a lot* of people to help us create the world of The Lands Remaining, I'm thinking about how we've hired quite literally hundreds of freelancers since 2016, and always at a much higher pay rate than what bigger publishers pay.(1/)

star trek is about a utopian vision of the future bordering on fantasy where people someday will be able to make good choices about complicated problems by talking to each other and involving people who know about things
The thing about Star Trek is that the majority of it has the crew spending most of the episode trying to figure out, through arguing and investigating, what's the right thing to do in a complicated situation and I don't think any shows do that now? Like in a Very Special Episode but not all the time

"Can we attack? No #reflection?"

"No reflection."

"Are you sure it's a mirror and not a window?"

"Once! It happened only once! And it was a very clean window!"

Oh.
I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Hey.

Wanna see what it looks like to fly past your home planet?

THEN LOOK AT THIS

This is the OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft's view as it swung by Earth on Tuesday, 23 September 2025 from an altitude of 3,500 km.

Look how beautiful that big blue marble is ❤️

Un artículo de Diario de Burgos argumenta que las puertas de Antonio López para la catedral no serían un problema porque "numerosos templos históricos" han incorporado puertas contemporáneas.

Analicemos los errores y falacias del texto.

That's what you've become. A mockery of your former self. No longer #relevant. And all because of that silly youngster, that parvenu, who has stolen the limelight. Your limelight.

That cannot be.

You know it.

You'll have to do something about it.

About him.

Soon.

Very, very soon.

"Such as?"

Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪
