Yesterday after I logged off work, I made a ricotta cheesecake, and since I know my springform pans are leaky (they are old and need to be replaced), I just used a deep dish pie plate, and it was fine. I also added about 2/3 cup of mini chocolate chips that the recipe did not call for, but which seemed necessary, though it is also a delicious cake without them (the cinnamon/orange/vanilla flavor is actually super Christmassy to me? but the heart wants what it wants, even if it's June rather than December). Also the vanilla bean paste gives it those little speckles which means it's even more delicious than usual! *g* Anyway, if you need a cheesecake but don't have a springform pan or a stand mixer, and don't want to deal with a water bath, this is the way to go.

Then today, I tried to make baked mozzarella sticks instead of fried - mainly because cleaning up after frying is a lot and also the smell lingers - but I didn't realize you are supposed to freeze them for TWO HOURS so I got a late start and didn't eat until almost 6:30. They were okay but not as wonderfully crisp as they get when fried, even though I used panko. Also, despite what some of these recipes say, you really should season every layer - the flour, the egg, and the breadcrumbs. I am just saying.

My plan for tomorrow is to make bacon so there's that for lunch for the week, along with some chicken pesto meatballs - we'll see how they are. I am apparently on a ground chicken kick, because I have a bunch of recipes I want to try, and as long as it keeps being on sale, I'm good to go!

In other news, the Knicks are up 2-0 on the Spurs and only TWO GAMES away from winning a chip! They've won 13 in a row in these playoffs! What even is happening??? MSG is going to be nuts on Monday. But remember, you absolutely do not have to hand it to James Dolan. #go new york go new york go

We engaged in what is now our Brunch Date tradition, in that we visited the fancy bakery and then we bimbled around the aqueduct looking at baby birds while slowly consuming our spoils.

Baby birds the first were at coot nest #1; we spotted the mallard sitting merrily on top of it to start with, and then I went HOLD ON THAT'S A TINY FLUFFY DUCKLING. ... THREE DUCKLINGS. The coots (a) are not shy about chasing ducks off and (b) tend to move gradually down the not-exactly-a-river with successive clutches, so we are not too concerned about them.

There were also: another clutch of (rather larger) ducklings, with no supervising adult; some extremely teenage coots; some extremely baby coots going WHEEK WHEEK WHEEK at the tops of their tiny lungs; yet another coot nest containing one (1) adult, two (2) teenagers, and three (3) tiny fluffy cheeplets, the teenagers being actually in the nest and variously sitting on top of and preening the cheeplets. The Egyptian goslings meanwhile are very nearly all the way grown up, but continue to spend most of their time clustered together.

I am not entirely sure why I had decided baby season was probably over, but I think we can definitively say that It Is Not!

AO3 Link | Not In My Head (1211 words) by Merfilly
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Babylon 5, Star Wars: The Clone Wars [2008] - All Media Types
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: Major Character Death
Characters: CT-7567 | Rex, Alfred Bester [Babylon 5]
Additional Tags: Crossover, Walk Into A Bar
Summary:

Bester escaped the island, but ran afoul of something else taking him to the GFFA for better or worse.

Not In My Head

Escaping the island had been easy enough, ahead of the trap that the leader of the resistance was. He'd have to regroup, but the PsiCorps lived in him, would be the salvation of all in due time. Telepaths under strict rules, laying down the foundation of society for the others to live in? One way or another, that would be the reality of life, just as soon as Alfred Bester found his feet planted on solid ground again.

His mistake, though, was in thinking the galaxy as a whole was done throwing curve balls.

Maybe it was a remnant of the Shadow War. Maybe it had been a nascent threat brought fully to life from the Vorlon meddling in humanity. Either way, when Bester reached the coordinates he'd memorized from a very early memory of meeting the Director, it was not the haven he'd made himself believe it would be. His genetic code, delivered in a drop of blood, activated the technology without any hesitation.

The device that came up around him pushed through every shield he'd ever built more effortlessly than Ironheart could have done. What it saw and recorded rendered a judgment to his helpless mind, his body frozen, before triggering a random implosion of quantum events to shunt the catalyst of so much suffering into a time/place far from this one.

Captain Rex, formerly of the 212th, currently in command of the 501st without either of his Jedi for back-up did not like the look of the ridged ovoid with a panel missing. At least he had found the 'meteor' they had tracked before finally breaking the Separatist stranglehold on the system.

"You deserve a light mission. Just scout it out, figure out if it's a weapon, and then get the legion back up. Snips and I will handle this thing for Master Tiin and be right back."

The skepticism Rex had felt then was nothing like the bad feeling he now had. This thing had been occupied, based on the scans. And no one was visible.

"Jesse, get the unit formed up and prepped for return to the Resolute," he called over his comm. "My squad and I have a tracking task now."

"Yes sir, Captain." The man waited a beat, then continued on personal frequencies instead of the regimental one. "Keep yourself alive, little brother."

Rex snorted. Jesse liked throwing around that he was a very early decant, but it did help unwind Rex's nerves.

"Alright men, let's find where the being went, probably headed for that town over there. Light jog, eyes and ears out!"

Bester had staggered his way to what passed as civilization, felt more than understood an overpowering relief in the locals. They seemed human, but the language was not any of his. Fortunately, he could filter through minds swiftly, accommodating his needs nearly as fast as he'd acquired clothing that let him blend in better.

There were a few non-humans present, and those, he avoided. He'd paid enough attention to other species to know that telepathy came in varying degrees, that the senses of a human were considered disadvantaged by many, and that just lifting the language wasn't going to let him pass as a local.

The idea that there were many worlds, that technology was so far in advance of this particular place elsewhere, gave him a yearning to find such. Rifling more minds told him to stake out a cantina, and he should be able to find a pilot and ship… once the newer military that had run off the other military left the system.

The people he'd taken information from were skeptical that they hadn't just exchanged one yoke for another, and Bester wondered if he might do better by using his abilities on a member of the occupying army to get away from here.

There was a lot of frustration building in the back of Rex's mind as the locals were the most unhelpful sapient species he'd seen in quite a few systems. No one had seen anything strange, couldn't point to strange arrivals, or anything… outside of making back-handed mentions of the G.A.R. troops.

It was enough to make him wonder why they even bothered to break places like this out of Seppie control.

"Alright, we're going over to that cantina, and I have enough credits to get us all one drink," Rex told the four men with him. "Nurse it, listen, and if you do start talking, try to keep it nice and calm. They don't seem to like us any better than their former occupiers, but we have to know who was in that pod, in case it's a bio-weapon or something else the Seppies dreamed up."

He passed out the currency that General Kenobi had put in his keeping for discretionary maneuvers, and they headed to the building with live music and plenty of people to scout for their objective. Rex had to believe that the discipline would hold up, that there wouldn't be any fights with the locals.

None of his men would embarrass him to the General or Commander that way, after all.

Fate was smiling, if Bester was willing to believe in such mysticism. Five of the soldiers, wearing armor with blue markings against the white, all of it heavily scarred by the war they were a part of. A cursory search of the four that had shifted out among the patrons of this dive told him their purpose. They were seeking him, thinking him to be a potential threat.

The one who had stayed at the bar was the officer. That was the one Bester needed. He would not go into the introduction without understanding that one intently, and he prepared to slice through the man's experiences to best craft the story he would use to insinuate himself near something like a power, to begin pursuing his dreams in this far away place, away from Vorlon manipulations and Shadow plots.

Rex had survived having Asajj Ventress in his head, controlling him, and managed to still find a way to warn his Jedi that he'd been compromised. There might not have been a real reason for him to realize he wasn't alone in his head this time; whomever it was wasn't the witch, holding him against a wall by his throat after all.

But he did know. More, he knew where the source was.

Maybe it was working hand in hand with Anakin Skywalker so much, or honing his instincts to keep track of the padawan-commander.

Either way, his blaster was in his hand and he was turning before that intrusion caught the intent.

One clean shot, and the stranger — looked human — slumped at the table he'd been keeping between him and the world.

"Sorry for the mess," Rex said quickly, and put the last of the credits on the bar, as his people moved to acquire the body.

Turned out, with the body not belonging to a local, they didn't care all that much about the stranger's fate, leaving the G.A.R. men to do as they wished.

Rex decided they'd recover the ovoid, put the body in stasis, and turn it all over to the Jedi when they got back to puzzle it out.

Sheep Detectives was just great! Unfortunately I had to walk part of the way to the movie theater because the bus couldn't go anywhere because a passenger got on in one of those cart things (not a wheelchair) and it was busted so I just got off the bus and walked the rest of the way.
Also my phone upgrade equipment showed up in the mail yesterday, I think it's some sort of modem and I don't having fucking clue one how to install the thing so some friends are going to come over this afternoon and one of them is going to do it for me. It's annoying, the AT&T guy I talked to on the phone several days ago said it was easy. Well, it's not. What was easy was adjusting my cell phone so I could look at my e mail on it. I wish L. was here, she could have done it. I haven't gotten so much as an answered text from her in 5 days. She hasn't moved to Pennsylvania yet but from my POV she might as well have, I haven't seen her in a long time.

What other additives? Hmm, there could be a scene of taunting the vampire curse and Josette expressing that she will accept it as a blessing rather than a curse due to the ability to protect the grounds and exist longer, transform the darkness to brightness and will A. recognize the error of interpretation? The duality of mon demon/mon ange as well as clearly seeing it.

There are other ideas for Josette, her pointing out to him, "Is it really you?" Making sure she has needed proofs to convince her too, and pointing out yes, he wants to believe it's her but she needs the belief it is him, also going through this in a 13.5 scene; their conversation upon getting home after 13, that very important reuniting.

I wonder if there is any other balances or confrontations like Sarah had in Pit #16? Not sure but I'd left off around the transition to 1897 and there are a few DOZEN ideas there anyway. Ah, well, hopefully find an answer to this bullcrap disease. More over the majority's bullcrap of ignoring it while claiming you have the wrong diseases as many going through this are suffering while some have decent physicians who know better. And what image? Ah-ha!

Reading: On the fiction front, over the last couple of weeks I read:

--Remember You Will Die (Eden Robins), which is SF told entirely through news and obits and correspondence and does some very neat things. It didn't give me any particular feelings, but I enjoyed it.

--The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi (Shannon Chakraborty), which is pretty much a delight from start to finish.

--The Book of Love (Kelly Link) unfolds in all kinds of interesting ways and had a lot of...emotional momentum?...for me, although I didn't come away with deep feelings about or attachment to any of the characters.

--The Everlasting (Alix E. Harrow), which I finished a few days ago and have seen several people discussing since (probably because it's up for a Hugo). I liked it more than some of you did, but didn't love it.

I haven't started another novel(la) since. After talking to Kas (who's most of the way through the series-so-far) last weekend, I went ahead and put the second Dungeon Crawler Carl on hold, and somehow my brain seems to think that's what I'm going to read next, which is awkward given that I don't expect it to arrive in the super near future.

On the nonfiction front, I read a bit more of Braiding Sweetgrass, flipped through some gardening books, and started rereading Tamar Adler's An Everlasting Meal: Cooking with Economy and Grace in hard copy (I read it in ebook almost exactly a year ago). I really like the feel and the spirit of this, and it's packed full of information that flows in a way that makes it hard for me to actually retain a lot of said information. I picked up the hard copy from Book Outlet in hopes that having a physical book would give me better odds of actually being able to usefully refer to bit of it.

Watching: Some more of both Justice in the Dark and Witch Hat Atelier.

Growing: Yesterday we acquired and planted five tomato seedlings (and a few other seedlings that still need planting). More on that in another post later, hopefully.

At first I thought this was about keeping them as pets ('linked to the pet trade', but I think it's actually about using them as pet food: More than 100,000 live exotic cockroaches have been seized from a commercial breeder in New South Wales in a record-breaking bust linked to the pet trade

***

Things actually not quite working (or likely to work) as touted:

Tesla's Full Self-Driving is so ready for the future that some of the people who trained it reportedly will not get in the car.

“Model collapse” threatens to kill progress on generative AIs: When AI eats its own product, it gets sick. Back in the day I think this sort of thing was known as photocopy syndrome - copies of copies of copies getting more and more degraded?

Mathematical modelling suggests that it is theoretically possible to reduce risk of common diseases using heritable genome editing. Scientists argue that the technology involves considerable risk and uncertain benefits.

***

Not really surprised by this: New study: Most people are not actually worried about trans women in women's bathrooms.

Wow. 1935 French case in which a man was acquitted of murder because the man he had shot was 'a well-known “witch” who had caused all sorts of harm'.

Recced Norman Maclean's Young Men and Fire to a couple of people lately, picked up my copy again to refresh my memory of something, and now it has its teeth in me and won't let go until I reread the whole thing and I've already had to go to YouTube and listen to the Cry Cry Cry cover of "Cold Missouri Waters."

And then I found an amazing quote from the songwriter, James Keelaghan, which is one of the best descriptions of the book I've read:

https://nathans-roncast.castos.com/episodes/how-james-keelaghan-wrote-cold-missouri-waters-part-1

And so just the story itself is compelling. But for Norman Maclean's writing of it, like, I don't know if you know the book, but Norman McLean was sort of, the fire was an area of specialty for him, for, you know, it was one of his little private obsessions. And he always meant to write a book about it. And he started to write the book, but he died before it was finished. And the book was then sort of completed by his editors and also by his son.

So you not only get the story of the fire and incredible amount of detail about how the smoke jumpers fit into the National Forest Service, how they were created as a unit, but also stuff about the mathematics of how fire spreads in various circumstances. But you also get this sense of MacLean being a writer who is running out of time to tell the story that he really wants to tell because he knows he's dying. He's in a great deal of pain, I think, when he's writing the book. And all that comes through this, this impatient, irascible old man, this voice actually comes through in the book. And then I felt like, yeah, you know, I really need to write a song about this.

Anyway Dodge just ordered them to drop the heavy tools so I have to get back to the book now.

For a setting where everyone is supposed to have some sort of common origin and yet they all have wildly different abilities.

The PCs all have medical conditions addressable by transplants ranging from minor stuff like a cornea transplant to organ transplants. By tremendous luck, a donor comes in just as they all hit the top of their respective wait lists. However, unbeknownst to the doctors or the recipients, the dead person--who died peacefully in their sleep from unknown causes--was the local superhero, someone with a Superman or Martian Manhunter-level buffet of abilities.

Each PC gains an ability appropriate for the particular body part they received... and once their abilites manifest feel obligated to use them to replace the mysteriously vanished superhero.

When, in the course of Holmestice Events, it becomes necessary to secure a Pinch-Hitter, and said-Pinch-Hitter steps up to the plate and delivers a Home-Run for Holmestice-- occasionally, things happen. Sometimes the originally-assigned Creator is able to produce a gift before the posting period has ended. Who is the true Creator? Is it the person who finished first? The person who was assigned first? Well, here at Holmestice, we say BOTH! Which is why we occasionally have two gifts for one Recipient.

And what if the Pinch-Hitter is suddenly running into timing issues (because we all know the Real World can suck)? Then we might just pinch-hit a Pinch-Hitter!

And what if a Mod who shall remain unnamed (coughCOATcough) mismatches a prompt at the very beginning, causing a Creator to not have a Recipient for whom to create? Then we may give them a replacement who is already assigned to someone else!

But, why are you telling us this right now?

As we Sherlock Holmes fans are quite good at deduction, you probably already know this means we are about to receive the first of a few duplicate gifts. Possibly even more than duplicate, given the unique circumstances of each round.

This used to stress a Mod who shall remain unnamed (coughCOATAGAINcough) no end, until they got it through their thick skull that this means MORE GIFTS! Soooooo... the first of the "bonus" entries is coming up. Now.

Reading

(Just so you know from this point forward: I generally don't log short stories and picture books, though I read a lot of the latter.)

Seven novels: MG contemporary fiction, YA contemporary fiction, SF, romantic contemporary paranormal.
Fifteen volumes in a comic strip series: contemporary fiction.
Two nonfiction books: MG history, digital minimalism.

I only read two books in March, so I'm making definite progress.

Writing

New SF history written: about 5,000 words.
New fiction written: 2,247 words.
New fiction prepared for June release: 2,768 words.
New fiction prepared for July release: 5,883 words.

Moon Bomb (my SF history book) is ballooning rapidly. The fourth volume of the Thousand Nations series is now halfway finished. For the first time in ages, I'm ahead of myself in editing.

Readers

Subscriptions (free and paid): Low but steady.
Online e-books at my website: No readers in May.
Story comments/reviews (other than from bots): None this month. I ran across a brief Italian-language Reddit recommendation of my Eternal Dungeon series from seven months ago.

It's always a thrill to know that I'm being read outside the English-language world. I'm finding it rather discouraging, though, that the most prolific commentary on my stories these days comes from AI.

There are 11 squares remaining. I'm on the last unstarted ball of mostly-brown (this will make one square) and I can maybe get one more square out of the leftovers from the three balls. Spinning has been neglected and needs to ramp up a bit so that I have material to go on with.

I've also experimented some with sewing squares together and there are now three squares sewn together and I have A Method For Piecing that I am OK with, probably.

We're passed the deadline, but we're not quite at the finish line!

We do have a number of extensions, in addition to pinch hits that had later due dates, so I still expect a number of works to be added to the collection in the coming weeks. If you don't yet have a gift waiting for you, it's likely for one of these reasons, but you can feel free to email me just to double-check.

There are 17 post-deadline pinch hits available. These are due 25 June at 22:59 US Eastern time, one day before our planned reveals date. However, it's possible I'll have to delay the collection opening to make sure all participants are covered, so if you know you can take one of these pinch hits but will need longer than the 25th, please let me know, and we can discuss.

If you can claim one of these, please comment with your AO3 name and the number of the pinch hit you want. All comments are screened.

If you aren't signed up but are only pinch hitting, please consider our treats for pinch hitters post!

If you are signed up and have an extension, you may ask to exchange your assignment for an open pinch hit. If you are given that pinch hit and fulfill it, this won't count as a default. Please tell me in your comment requesting a pinch hit if you are asking to swap.

I will be unavoidably away from my keyboard for large portions of this weekend, so it may take me a little time to update this post with claims.

More updating folks on the flippant time wasting of modern medicine and how off they've got it. Sorry that covid came and ruined the rules and all the little ticky boxes, but it does and has and we're not buying the tickies any more, no... also re read some old trolling and DAMN! The extent of needing to blazon tribal nonsense and scream at me about the 'honorable' villain who deserves all-the-candy, and I was told I had too much time?
(not now, obviously)

And people were confused at me blowing gaskets about all the ludicrous fuss. I'm surprised I didn't blow tons more, actually. Yep I got emotional, one does when cured of horrors, finding passions do the trick, too. The other trolly complaint was how vampires can't have sex and good lord, if they can't exist to begin with, who gives a crap? It is fiction for a reason! Hence, I'm "blaming" Lily Munster for providing the dark blessing of it. I expected the complaint to be "too cheesy" but no. apparently Lily and Grandpa are deep, serious issues, somehow? Ohhhhhhhhhh-h-h-h-KAY! :S

now... do I have that plucky image? THERE it is!

Beauty, eh? ^_^

This is an amazingly important piece, IMO, on the role of child development in democracy by Dr. Stacey Patton: "You Can't Raise Children To Obey and Expect Them To Defend Democracy"

(Notes: I edited this post a couple of times because parts of it appear to have gone missing; also, I used "trans rights" as a tag because it's discussed in the piece though not the whole focus, and "strategy" because it's laying the foundations for a very long-term strategy indeed for raising citizens of a democracy.)

alias_sqbr

My initial review.

Overall, I really liked it!

It continued to be a sprawling, layered, long-winded but fascinating mess to the end. But some of my favourite characters and perspectives showed up quite late, and made me look back a more positively on some earlier sections of the story, so my opinion of it now is higher than it was in my last review, if still kinda mixed.

The ending made me cry in a cathartic way, and I am left with a bunch of fun chewy thoughts about stories in general and possible fanfic in particular.

Hella content warnings though, I had to stop at one point because it was skirting very close to triggering me, and then spoiled myself for the next little bit of plot to see if it was going to get Too Dark (which it didn't)

Content notes for the game, which are both possibly triggering themselves and also spoilery

Parental abuse, suicide, rape, incest, sympathetic portrayal of fascists, gore, torture, sexy immortal young girls (real young girls are not sexualised but do get joke flirted with), major character death, probably other things.

( No spoilers )

senmut

Hmm, still not feeling the pull to create much in new fandoms. Still dabbling in Drizzt and Star Wars fics as the mood strikes.

Have fallen for House of the Dragon, and read the story collection. Yes, I know I will have my heart murdered this coming season. I just hope the creative team sticks the landing.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/84429766/chapters/222714561 - Have a rec for a fic that is Rhaenyra/Alicent and a delight to me. 5/7 chapters posted, trust in the author when she says the other chapters are being edited.

Was never solidly a Buffy fan, but Giles was dear to me, and many other roles ASH had touched me in some way. His memory is a blessing. (And in checking if his brother was still alive, I learned that ASH's daughter was Sofina the Red in DND: Honor Among Thieves.) (Yes, Murray is still alive.)

Hmm, not much else. HotD is too big a fandom for me to dive in on tumblr or AO3 (bad takes, not my cuppa in so many fics), so if you have writers/artists YOU trust in those fandoms, please enlighten me. (I learned my lesson in GoT of being VERY careful how I touched fandom.)

I listen to a lot of books on my commute to and from work three times a week now.

Livesuit by James S.A. Corey

This was just a short novella, illustrating another part of the world of The Captives' War series. It's good, but it's fucking bleak. Which is pretty much what I expected.

Cinder Luna by Marie Soleil

A modern retelling of the Cinderella story, which is what sucked me in, but I kind of wish it hadn't. This started out cute and fun, and the writing itself is good, and the premise has so much potential (online friends not realizing they're courting each other IRL), but the conflict is contrived, the lack of communication is maddening (note to the MCs: USE YOUR WORDS LIKE ADULTS, FFS), and the pretzels the story twists itself into to keep the characters from recognizing the other's voice is ridiculous. That's what makes this so disappointing. The potential is THERE. It's just... not at all realized.

Carl's Doomsday Scenario by Matt Dinniman (#2 in the Dungeon Crawler Carl series)

I read the first one a while ago, and wasn't entirely sure I would continue. It was entertaining enough for one book, but I wasn't at all sure the premise would be able to carry it through seven more books. I was afraid it would get stale, or repetitive, or both. But the books are all very popular, and I did enjoy the first one quite a lot, and so I picked up the second one. I'm still not 100% convinced it's going to hold up for all eight books in the series, but so far it's holding my attention.

The Bridge Kingdom by Danielle L. Jensen

Again, this was an interesting premise that didn't live up to its potential. A princess is trained from a young age to be an expert in espionage and combat, and then married off to the king of an enemy kingdom with the intent to learn their secrets and destroy them from the inside. It was refreshing for a heroine to start out a badass, but as an espionage expert, she's just so incredibly stupid. She makes a big deal of "playing the long game" but takes so many insane risks for miniscule rewards within the first weeks of being married. And the maddening thing is that the narrative still treats her like she's this amazingly competent spy. Which she is not. Also, the plot holes are gaping. I think this is the first of a trilogy, and I don't think I'll be reading the rest of it.

My next book might be Romanov by Nadine Brandes, an alternate history in which magic aids Anastasia's escape to Siberia.

I have a lot of books on my TBR pile, but I'm kind of restricted to audiobooks I can get through Libby or cheap from Chirp or Kobo, and that limits the selection. Quite often, any specific book I try to find is only on Audible. I bought Livesuit from Kobo (novella, pretty short and inexpensive) and I had to buy the Dungeon Crawler Carl book, which wasn't inexpensive. At the rate I'm going through audiobooks, I don't really want to spend $20-$40/pop. I don't mind spending the money once in a while, but for the most part, I'm restricting myself to what I can find. This is why I've been picking up books of dubious quality (The Bridge Kingdom, Cinder Luna). They're either cheap or free, and it's difficult to find good books for cheap or free.

Not impossible! Just difficult.

We have a pair of Northern Cardinals nesting in our yard, and today I saw dad with a fledgling!

crested red songbird and small tan fledgling sit on the ground eating seeds

crested red songbird and small tan fledgling sit on the ground eating seeds

The fledgling was begging for food by fluttering its wings, a common signal in many baby birds. Dad was attentively finding seeds and stuffing them in Junior's mouth. The baby already has a little bit of a crest and some red on the wings, but it's too early to tell the sex. Mom wasn't with them but I saw her on the feeder later in the day.

Just what it says. I see (and feel) so much negativity about working. And I know many of us have a resentment of being trapped in full time work.

What do I like about my job? A sense of aiding in the treatment of patients. Everything I do is to help lab results get done and reported in a timely fashion. At my last lab, I was far more hands-on: I worked primarily in Client Services, the people who talk to doctors and staff, but I covered:

Processing (get requisitions entered, matching samples for testing, spinning them down as needed)
Logistics (picking up specimens or checking them in from flights/drivers)
Microbiology (mostly setting up blood cultures in the incubator)
Chemistry (moral support for third shift, handling beepy machines, finding new pipette stashes...)

I learned a LOT of technical knowledge that my current lab does not impart to the Client Services (where I work) and this leads to me being able to handle more calls from beginning to end without needing to escalate it.

I’m at the start of PSOH volume 5 in the SS re-release, which is the start of volume 7 in the TP original.

There’s a bonus story at the end of TP v6 that we skipped, because SS doesn’t have it at the start of v5, but in the middle. More on that later.

As usual, originally threaded on Mastodon / Bluesky. Having a weird situation where my phone gave me reply notifications for Bsky posts, but I can’t see the replies themselves. It’s not that they were deleted — some of the posts (here’s an example) still list 2 replies — I just can’t see any other than mine, either on desktop or mobile. Can any of the rest of y’all read them?

Anyway. Affiliate links for the whole Collector’s Edition, in case you want your own.

While I have the brain energy, I figured I would repost a useful resource for my fellow writers using Scrivener, namely that someone on the r/scrivener subreddit has made dozens of free Scrivener themes for both Mac and Windows versions of Scrivener, if you would like to change up the color scheme of Scrivener a bit. (There's also a guide to Scrivener's Compile system there, if you need one.)

As a Mac user, this is exciting, because the Mac and Windows themes for Scrivener are not cross-compatible and I am pretty sure that every other Scrivener theme I have ever seen available for download is for the Windows version. But these come in Mac versions too! Now I can finally have a selection of pretty colors to choose from!

(This is also doubly exciting because the person who was making them was taking suggestions as they were posting them in packs to the subreddit and I asked if they could please make a version of the Cobalt2 IDE theme and they made a Cobalt2 IDE theme! For me! It's pretty great. I understand that not everyone wants Scrivener to look like their favorite VSCode or JetBrains theme, but I love this theme a lot, so.)
