roses poetry, "this is just to say"
This is just to say
I have eaten
the roses
you kept in
the icebox
and which
you were definitely
mistaken
in putting there
They're roses
what's wrong with you
they don't go in the icebox
what do you mean what's wrong with me
Of course I ate
the roses
I had to
that's how the poem begins
yes the thorns hurt a lot
sometimes
we do foolish things for love
Roses are red,
The rich hate altruism,
Share resources based on need,
And espouse anticapitalism.

Roses are red
except when another hue
Violets don't exist
It's a horticultural conspiracy
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Socialism is good actually
And so are you.
Gonna use the #HorrifyingDoggerel and #RosesAreRed tags like previous years so these can all be collected more easily.

Aaaaaaargh.
Thank you.

Look, I'm not a religious person and I'm not much of a Beatles fan, but I think that crescendo build and finally glorious E-major chord in _A Day In The Life_ might actually merit building a religious organization around.
joking rebuttal to people complaining about the Voyager episode where people turned into lizards after going Warp 10
26 years ago, the Voyager episode "Threshold" aired, in which it was revealed that humans who break the Warp barrier turn into lizards. This episode has been wildly reviled, but those protesting it are missing an important truth.
Every single time a human breaks a speed barrier, they turn into a lizard. It's a biological fact - in attempting to break the sound barrier, we went through sixteen test pilots before Chuck Yeager mysteriously didn't turn into a lizard. There is ample pictographic evidence to show that the first humans who attempted to ride horses turned into lizards. Our simulations show that we can expect the first team of astronauts attempting FTL travel will turn into lizards.
When faced with a velocity that the human brain is unprepared for, a complex psychosomatic process is initiated and the human turns into a lizard in response. After the new "maximum" velocity is normalized and no longer seen to be excessive, humans stop being startled by the travel velocity and cease turning into lizards. It's just basic biology.

26 years ago today, "Threshold", the Star Trek: Voyager episode where Janeway and Paris turn into lizards and have lizard babies and then never speak of it again, first aired. Best wishes to all who celebrate.

More commoner wizards in fantasy stories and TTRPGs, please. (food mention)
Wizard innkeep who wrote a few useful rituals into the pages of their cookbook.
Wizarding tenant farmers, passing magic down through oral tradition.
Wizard tinker, mending everything from pots to plows with a mixture of magic and metalworking.
You don't need noble academies in this world to study and learn - you don't need them in a fantasy world either.

Forthcoming book, a trove of notes from Douglas Adams and his many projects
Unbound has a (funded) project that might be of interest to a few folk..
"42
By Douglas Adams, edited by Kevin Jon Davies
The wildly improbable ideas of Douglas Adams"
"A book for all fans of Douglas Adams offering a unique insight into his life and work.
After his death in 2001, Douglas Adams's papers were loaned to his old Cambridge college, St John's – over 60 boxes full of notebooks, research, letters, scripts, jokes, speeches, to-do lists, hard drives and even poems.
The book will reproduce in facsimile form extracts from the archive with explanatory text and footnotes to add context. Developed in close association with Adams’s family and literary estate, 42 will be a full-colour, large-format hardback that follows his career from early collaborations with Graham Chapman to his work on Doctor Who, through the Hitchhiker years, Dirk Gently, his groundbreaking non-fiction book Last Chance to See and his later digital work. Alongside this are details of projects that never came to fruition like a proposed theme park ride and a TV series provisionally entitled The Secret Empire."

Dream fragment: The word "PROOT" is a valid and correct answer to all logic puzzles. Including Wordle. And all riddles.
I think my brain just came up with a new metasyntactic variable and did the Finagle's Finagling Factor thing with it.
