Widowed and nonbinary. I talk a lot about Star Trek, Ohio, cats, dinosaurs, and whatever I’m watching. The Columbus Dispatch once called me a “local cartoonist and customer-service rep.” (They/Them)

Less than three months now until Tyrant Lizard Queen stomps your way! It’s a toxic yuri dinosaur tale founded in the latest science, depicting a cast of Cretaceous characters not often seen together, illustrated by the amazing @korybing.bsky.social. Something to sink your teeth into.

I love (“love”) how Microsoft has decided the reason no one uses copilot is becuase we just don’t know how great it is, so now when I open Word or Excel I get a bunch of example pop-ups in the corner showing me exiting basic functions I could always do, but now in the form of a question.

Mine was always the Deinocheirus arms in every dinosaur book I had growing up, and I love that the full animal turned out to be so goofy looking. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deinoch... Now I want to know about the dinosaurs of Ohio. Which were probably not preserved, but maybe somehow something was.

What's your personal great white whale of an unsolved mystery? The thing you desperately hope is solved before you die because you need to know the answer? Mine is the Isabella Stewart Gardener Museum heist. Where the hell are the Rembrandts. I need the full story

Weird, kinda shitty day, but tonight I’m going to experience the exotic flavors of Vermont. (I make Golden Curry all the time, but I don’t think I’ve ever picked up this brand/style, even though it catches my eye every time I see it.)

I’m getting a ton of follows from film festivals lately. I assume these are all bots or scams or just bad social media marketing, but maybe I Letterboxd so good that I’m now considered an important critic and they’re going to fly me out to watch more movies?
