Blue Jean (2022) dir. Georgia Oakley -- great film about how keeping one foot in the closet is the only reasonable thing to do and will nonetheless corrode out everything meaningful in your life until it fumbles all that in the last ten minutes

I bet whoever wrote the "what does god need with a starship" line from Star Trek V was soooooooooo proud of themselves. I bet they slammed down the "?" typewriter key and leant back in their chair, grinning exultively, fingers interlaced behind their head, and proceeded to lean so far back that their chair rolled out fom under them and they fell to the floor, cackling in startled glee as the casters spun pointlessly in the air.

Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS over Westport, NY from the other side of Lake Champlain. Note the arc of white in the mountains--night before last's 15" of snow on Whiteface keenly reflecting the moonlight.

A lucky accident while trying to set the shutter speed for a photograph of the moon--a high-contrast capture of the "golden handle," the monthly approach of the lunar terminator to the Sinus Iridum basalt plain that sees the plain in shadow while the Jura mountains behind it bask in the lunar dawn

"Vening Meinesz (1959) analyzed the spherical harmonics of the Earth's topography up to the thirty-first order. The peak
shown in the values from the third to fifth harmonic would correlate very nicely
with mantle-size convection currents; cells would have the approximate diameter of 3000 to 6000 km in cross section (the other horizontal dimension might
be 10,000-20,000 km, giving them a banana-like shape)."

just found out that the "green monster" is only 37 feet tall and is, in fact, just a somewhat tall left-field wall rather than what I had ASSUMED, which is some sort of seventy- or eighty-foot-tall green monolith standing astride the outfield in silent judgement. smack-dab in the middle of center field, I thought that balls were pinging off that thing 24/7. just an immense obstacle that, by dint of sheer long-earned familiarity, received no attention. there is no magic in this world.
