Dreaming of running a bookshop but I don't even know where to begin...
Plucked The Martian Chronicles off my shelf and read There Will Come Soft Rains, as today is August 4, 2026.
please for the love of god go outside every once in a while
Watched my partner play Solasta: Crown of the Magister and it was a fun little game. They just downloaded Palace of Ice DLC and I'm excited to see where it goes!
I am not a climate scientist but when I was a kid the number of times we couldn’t go outside because of Canadian wildfire smoke was zero times

It’s nice to see the Dungeons & Dragons community finally getting the respect it deserves.

One of the greatest tricks Jurassic Park pulls, and what really sells the groundbreaking effects work, is that before you ever see a dinosaur, you see Alan Grant see a dinosaur. You believe you’re seeing dinosaurs because you just watched Sam Neill see a living, breathing dinosaur. God, what a loss.
And we just passed $20k raised for @wck.org a few minutes ago! How very excellent, and thank you to all of you who have picked up a bundle so far. You can still pick it up, if you want to have and have not yet.
John Scalzi@scalzi.com · 4w ago2. If you haven't picked up my Humble Bundle of books yet, today's a fine day. We have to date raised $18.7k for @wck.org, and it would be lovely to get to $20k this weekend. Available everywhere except (apparently) current and former Commonwealth countries: www.humblebundle.com/books/john-s...
Made a couple shelves for my mini paintings! I already ran out of space, so it looks like I'm making more.
Monarch update. Missed the emergence of the butterfly while at work, but happy that the little bugger seems to have made it! I've got more caterpillars on more milkweed, so maybe I'll catch one of them when it's their time.
Welp. Looks like I'm probably getting my Master's degree. Have set the wheels in motion to finally get there. It's been a long time since I was a student. Gonna be an adventure for sure!
