@GinnyMcQueen There's this museum, right? And it's basement, where they keep the archives that aren't currently on display, is unbound by space. Like L-Space from discworld, I guess? Just infinite. And it's full of weird shit. A Portrait of Steve Jobs by Leonardo DaVinci, that kind of thing. And the city is trying to cut their funding.

@GinnyMcQueen the singularity, but it gets ruined when the devs building it fail to account for diversity and it gets racist/ sexist in there

I hope if you choose this you'll do me the favor of sharing a photo with me for the same purpose. Care to set a word limit?

@GinnyMcQueen The California drought ends. Speculative fiction is fun, right?

@GinnyMcQueen a picture i took in Lahaina, Hawaii a few years ago (you'd have to figure out for yourself what feeling it gives!)

@GinnyMcQueen one of my favorite quotes. "The future is already here. It's just not very evenly distributed." - William Gibson

@GinnyMcQueen Two people sit at a cafΓ© table. First asks the second a question. The Second takes a sip of their coffee before answering...

And the entire story itself takes place just within that moment, when they take a sip of their coffee. All their thoughts, the possibilities they imagine, the plans they make and discard in that instant.

@GinnyMcQueen I'm always trying to finish "one more thing" so I end up running late to meet friends and family. It's a bad habit and I'm trying to overcome it.
