I want a Starlink Mobile phone NOW. T-Mobile isn't terrible, but it's the best of a bad lot. And give me international roaming for free, because Starlink is worldwide. pcmag.com/news/spacex-confir…

I'm sorry Hillary, I'm afraid I can't do that.

Man, nothing gets by Google AI. Here's today's listing for Monday Night Football. It's Monday.

Pretty good nostalgia project with flipover books like the Ace Doubles. Easy in options or get everything in one go. Obligatory Kickstarter text below. I just backed TwoTome on @Kickstarter kickstarter.com/projects/mrc…

Some of these Marco Rubio memes are hilarious. 🎶The hills are alive, to the sound of Marco....

Buy in now or if you already have, buy two! Introduce a friend to the Aristillus universe.

Some random questions for @MorlockP - and of course it's part of the "spread the word" effort: * Is the "build a smaller ship out of the crashed one" plot point inspired by "Flight of the Phoenix"? (Release 1965, remake 2004.) * Is Eli's decision to favor the work over survival a riff on Archimedes? Who famously told Roman invaders that he was busy and was killed for being unwilling to stop working on a theory.

Is this thing on? Tried to support @MorlockP's latest project with a Brady Bunch filk a few days ago. It was on an old post. Got a whopping *squints* 10 views. Trying again on a newer post. Buy this book! And hum "The Io Bunch" as you do it. THE IO BUNCH! Here's the story, of a dog named Eli He's a pilot and a builder and a dad He went on a ship, to a moon called Io The mission made him glad It's the story, of two other canines First there's Bollstadt who loved nothing more than rock There was also Roch, Mission Commander No thumbs but they could talk Then they had some, equipment failure And they had to build a new ship from the old They fought a lot at first, then worked together And that's how they became the Io Bunch The Io Bunch (they don't have thumbs) The Io Bunch (DO they have thumbs?) That's how they became the Io Bunch! (arf arf arf)

Can we get this over $20K? I want interior illustrations! Just look at that edge printing, MOAR! Olbligatory Kickstarter text: I just backed Aristillus: Escape from Io — Collector's Edition Hardcover on @Kickstarter kickstarter.com/projects/tji…

Mr. "Restricts Replies" here seems not to know that CS Lewis straight out said Aslan was Jesus. Or he knows and doesn't want to deal with the blowback of his ridiculous statement.

Financially illiterate entertainment industry reports drive me batty. No, Practical Magic 2 did not "recoup" $46 million. That's the box office. The studio will get about half of that. @ew why publish something so wrong? yahoo.com/entertainment/movi…

The even better news is that Coyote Vs. Acme did $12M this weekend for a modest dropoff of 25% taking it to $34M. A long tail (heh) means the movie will easily hit $50M domestic, with a chance at $70M. And half that much again Intl. $100M Box Office will give ~50M film rental, putting it within striking distance of profitability from the $60M investment before Streaming/Video even starts. Good job, Ketchup Entertainment!

Dear @FoxNews: Surely there is more going on in the world today than coverage of a potential mistrial. Lindsay Clancy is never going free regardless of how this trial turns out. Show something else.

I choose #GothIHop And I would also choose Goth Outback, Goth Hooters, Goth...well, you get the idea.

Never thought that Escape from New York would become a documentary, but Mamdani may get us there. cnbc.com/2026/08/13/mamdani-…

Looks like DiJonai Carrington wants us to check our white privilege today. You know, I just checked and "getting clocked while shooting a basket" doesn't seem privileged at all.

Now we know where Mitch McConnell has been! It's alive...IT'S ALIVE!!

Not far off Niven's "World Out of Time" where they used ramjets to push Uranus out of orbit to pull Earth to Jupiter as the Sun got warmer from a bomb used in an interplanetary war.
