Here are microblog posts that I published this week:

• C’mon Daylight Savings, read the room.

• Okay, also: In the ranking of Khans, Cumberbatch is way down at the bottom, and Montalbán should be clearly at the top, but this Lower Decks!Khan is at least a close second… and might even be my favorite?

Here are photos that I published this week (or at least their descriptions):

• Every once in a while I surprise myself with how well I can read music, despite all I’ve forgotten since long ago piano lessons. Getting the musical jokes in Ryan North’s Lower Decks comic is the most delightful this has ever been, though.
