Last minute Halloween makeup came out really well for being 10 minutes of a 15 minute process. Years and years as a goth and as a theater nerd are damn handy, sometimes.
Watch this space tomorrow for what happens when I have a plan.

I don't like knowing what searches cluster with this particular news piece (about a camper mauled to death by bear he'd previously photographed in his campsite). There's a reason I was on Something Awful but never on Rotten.

This is the funniest thing I've seen today. Kudos, David Kurtz! (Why aren't you on Bluesky?)
@joshtpm.bsky.social, I hope this clip goes in the file for his next performance review.

Showing off the bike helmet project so I can get some praise before the spray paint step. It might come out bitchin'. It might become a travesty.

Gotta love glorified autocorrect pushing people toward mental health issues and suicide!
LLMs and image generation are a little like training a pigeon to steer a bomb. They're being sold like the pigeon understands geopolitics.

Made a special trip to the grocery store today for distilled water because I mistakenly thought we had a second jug, and I refuse to let my baby go thirsty. Watch this space for my mini bog in the spring, I guess?
I still can't get over how Venus fly traps and pitcher plants can just live here.

Notably, protestantism, especially Calvinism, is all about the "you are nothing if you aren't contributing" thing. It helped me a lot to name and understand that.

Look, politics is not a game, but I appreciate being able to keep score.
Also, of the dozen calls I've made, everyone has been gracious. When I've been able to open with a "thank you" for what they're doing right, they've been appreciative.
Take ten minutes to make the tally tick upward.

The weather feels very appropriate for a memorial. Uncle Doug was a loving, stubborn man who saw the world with clear eyes and ran headlong into joy and laughter despite that.
We should all be so lucky to die as we lived and on our own terms.

Excellent points. We can work together as long as we hate each other less than we hate Nazis. And that's a lot of hate.
