Karen Wynn Fonstad was a novice cartographer who painstakingly plumbed J.R.R. Tolkien’s books and notes to draw atlases of Middle-earth, the setting of “The Hobbit” and “The Lord of the Rings.” Her maps became crucial for the films that followed. nyti.ms/4gU3Q9d

@ben_a_goldfarb I mean, either its exclusive or it has 32 million readers. Those can't both be true.

@billtrotter If you were to monetize this knowledge with a Substack ranking them, I would subscribe.

Some people think being a journalist is a cushy life filled with perks and prestige. Maybe it is for some, but for me an important part of doing my job is knowing where the nearest portable toilet is as I drive down rural roads in eastern Maine.

@bgold80 @Savage_Brewer @KrisShera Oohhhhh, so downvote older shows in order to be able to say they were at the internet’s highest-rated show? Love this, gonna do it on Yelp with my favorite Wendy’s.

In usual pathetic Phish fan behavior, attendees of the msg gamehenge show are frantically downvoting other shows ratings on phish.net. Such an embarrassing fanbase sometimes.

@KrisShera The score goes down. Basically people are going on there and giving a bunch of legendary shows ratings of 1 so that when nye 2023 dips a little like most shows do, it will still be at the top.

@aobrien2010 Playing back tape on a confusing exchange with a source, and I think it's b/c maybe no one but me and Merriam Webster actually uses this word this way.

More and more, when I use the word "catholic" in the small-c sense, I realize people have no idea what I'm talking about. This just kinda fallen out of the vocab?

@ben_a_goldfarb I've heard of this. They eat the leaves out of your yard for free, but they film themselves doing it and then the revenue comes from YouTube.

Neighborhood herd of muleys turned up in the front yard this morning. Close observation showed they were hoovering up fallen elm leaves — a food source I didn't know they used. Are dead leaves typical winter rations, or is this a sign of desperation?

Sorry but I have to share a bit more of this morning’s Downeast Maine meteorology magic, with 15F overnight chill clashing with far warmer sea temperatures, creating an astonishing frost crystal cloak on marsh grasses and drifting sea mist.

Stunning frost on our shorefront salt marsh this morning. #winterishere #wxtwitter #mainelife
