Pumpkin pies are in the oven. They always take longer to bake than the recipe says. On our first extra 10 minutes.

Mom’s “secret” recipe is to add an extra egg for each pie and increase the spices.

I just followed somebody here based on pics of her cats and an amazing looking blood orange and olive oil upside down cake.
I don't bake, but I pet cats and eat cake!
Sounds like a great day.

Arrived at the bufflehead grounds an hour for sunrise today.

they're so great for photography because the buffleheads are a couple hundred feet north of a walking bridge and then they'll fly south of it, which means you can get a cute duck within feet of your lens. 🧵 🪶
Checking ebird it seems like this place I go every morning is the best place in California to capture bufflehead in flight. I'll continue to monitor the situation and there are still 100s moving across the state. #birds

Gotta go out today and buy a few things because I'm giving everyone their gifts tomorrow and then scurrying down a hole for the rest of the year.

Some people are very good at writing sex and some people are good at believing that they are good at writing sex, the first is a tremendously impressive skill and the second is what makes for deeply uncomfortable author presentations at science fiction conventions
There's nothing wrong with literary porn, but some of the crap those guys wrote was "Have you actuallly ever HAD sex?"

BREAKING: new emails CONFIRM my reporting that there are TRAINING VIDEOS instructing FBI personnel on how to review the Epstein Files. Plus, a lot more…
The emails reveal the special training given to FBI personnel working on what it called the “Epstein Transparency Project.” In some instances they referred to it as the “Special Redaction Project.” The training entailed PowerPoint slide presentations and video instruction on how to review the files.

La Jolla Cove
La Jolla, California

They gathered where light lingers.
One moved. One stayed. One dreamed.
Waves offered rhythm of belonging.
The horizon kept quiet grace.
The ocean carried silence into sky.

The draft dodging idiot posted a pic of this West Point plaque. It contains these words:

“Our American Code of Military Obedience requires that, should orders and the law ever conflict, our officers must obey the law.”

That is precisely what Senator Mark Kelly told officers to do. #NoSedition

I'm wondering if Kegseth is hell-bent on going after Mark Kelly because he outranked him. Small men do that kind of thing.

I’m still thinking about Bari Weiss saying that Hasan Piker (extremely popular influencer) is less of a measure of where Americans are than Alan Dershowitz (extremely unpopular Epstein associate, his own neighbors won’t sell him a pierogi)

Writing is hard work.

Writers should be able to make a living even if they don't have a full time staff position.

Authors especially should be able to make a living off their books they've sweat and toiled for.

All of this shows further why our capitalist system is unsustainable and unjust.
