It’s ALWAYS projection with these people! They tell you what they’re doing by accusing you of it. They went farther than normal this time and openly admitted it.

“Moms For Liberty”…what a freaking farce! They’re actually “Moms For Fascism”.

It was the devil! Or maybe not.

Alice in Chains, "The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here"

@XaoslordErie I honestly always preferred their solo projects,especially Gilliam.

Just a great album overall. Here is The Lie from the album New World, by Dave Kerzner.

Something I heard this morning in the percussion of a funky jazz song launched me on a unexpected nostalgic side trip. It was a sound some might identify as "percussive coconut shells" and it reminded me of an old song by a guy named Johnny Williams (ahem).

It might make some of a certain age happy to hear again:

Pet peeves, episode #318:

The word "software" is a mass (or uncountable) noun, it should never be followed by an 's'. If you say "softwares" to me, just know that I'll be smacking you in my mind's eye.

I'll also be silently smacking you if you use the word "program" immediately after the word "software". Just don't.

Now, get off my lawn.

I mentioned this book a while back, here's an insightful semi-review for all of the jazz/AOR/SciFi nerds among us (we are legion):

Fellow CoSonauts: For those of you who consider yourself to be "old" (regardless of your physical age), I am curious: At what point did you stop thinking of yourself as "young"? Was it at a certain age? Was it upon the occurrence of a specific event (e.g. health, comment by someone else, milestone, etc.)? Or was it something else?

WOW - There’s this guy who does nursery rhymes in the style of his favorite bands and the production standards are insane. This Mumford and Sons style rendition of You Are My Sunshine is genuinely as good as a song they would release.

Woo!

Also, up today on Analog’s blog is a wee companion article to my story in the latest issue. “Science Fiction and the Myth of the Rational Actor” not only relates to themes found in “The Last Romantic on the Belliponte” (May/June 2023), but also plenty of other SF I’ve written over the years.

This is an abiding fascination of mine - and it shows up in Children of Doro, too!

For hot sauce aficionados: First tasted this sauce several years ago in Austin, but now it's finally getting widespread distribution. They have multiple 'flavors', and each is unique and very good. I mean, c'mon, a hot sauce whose first ingredient is carrots?

Seriously, try this stuff (or one of the flavor/pepper variations), it's addictive on everything, especially pizza!

(Not affiliated in any way, just find it delicious!)
