We used to have so much freedom in the USA that there were cigarette vending machines.

Vorher habe ich aber noch in den Garten geschaut, da blühhen ulkige Tulpen, wie Staubwedel!😄

I found this random area of sky that looked interesting, set the Dwarf Mini on it and wow! 😍 It turned out to be an area of nebulosity around the star 'Sadr': skyatnightmagazine.com/advice/sadr

M51 - 3 clear nights from my back garden in Hertfordshire. The deep 7.6-hour Luminance layer really allowed the faint structural details to shine through the light pollution. Esprit 120mm ED Triplet, ASI533MM Pro L: 7.6 hrs | R: 1hr | G: 1hr | B: 1hr #astrophotography

In my opinion, Patrick O’Brian wrote the finest historical fiction ever published. I’ve read his 20-volume “Master & Commander” series five times through. Zelazny was primarily a fantasist, whose “Amber” series bent the genre into interesting shapes, but was also excellent at sci-fi. His anthology “The Last Defender of Camelot” is an excellent example.

Have you ever finished a book and immediately thought, “Yep, I need to read everything this author has ever written”?

Got some galaxy backlog. Currently imaging... This is the unmasked truth about imaging. You get doghnouts and you will take care of them later with flats, darks, bias. GN 👾

@RRR0BYN These are the best. I have half a shelf full of Macaulay's books. I also bought almost the entire Basher science series for my kid, as well as some mythology for fun.

Here’s a prime example of why you cannot be sleeping on vintage books for your homeschool curriculum. Found this book for FREE in a book swap library in my neighborhood and I’m in love with the hand drawn illustrations and detailed but kid friendly information. Published in the USA in 1973. They don’t make them like this anymore!

@RocketPulpHack Hmmm. May not quite fit the spec but I do love Keith Laumer's "Retief" series. He doesn't exactly have bureaucratic clout but he knows how to use its own rules against itself, and outfox them regularly.

You want a real power fantasy that people will enjoy? Write a story where a character has the institutional clout to cut through the bullshit and deal with the assholes at work, and not get fired for it. It feels indulgent even describing it.

@GPrime85 It’s like Mark Twain said. “To do good is noble. To tell others to do good is nobler, and no trouble.” Easier for them to lament than support artists in plain sight.

Read about the "PLANeT initiative". It is "an international effort to generate high-quality, standardized genomes across the plant tree of life". "The integration of knowledge from wild #plants, crops, and weeds will promote innovation in fundamental plant research, #biodiversity conservation, agriculture in all countries, and plant-inspired drug discovery, thereby better supporting the sustainable future of our planet." #Science #Biology #Ecology ⏯️PLANeT: Understanding and leveraging the genome of land plants for a sustainable future 1-cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

@hillbillythings Without meaning to speculate, I've seen some parish councils act as a destructive force. I recall when my childhood church was assigned a marvelous traditionalist priest. The council drove him away, sending him a greeting card reading, "DROP DEAD." They in turn were voted out.
