Anyway here's my slightly shaky phone shots cause no gloves and cold hands.
The aurora of November 11, 2025. Bright green, and a deep red sky. Clouds and stars are visible as well. The aurora of November 11, 2025. Straight up red sky with stars dotted throughout.

A screenshot of a tweet by Olivia Smith (handle: OliveFSmith) that reads: I always love it when people say 'baby steps!' to imply they're being tentative, when actually baby steps are a great unbalanced, wholehearted, enthusiastic lurch into the unknown.

A balding general with his face in his hand. In a deep deep "I cannot not believe this shit" facepalm. Photo of all the generals listening to Pete Hegseth's "inspiring" lecture. Lots of bald men in blue or khaki green military uniforms.

A screenshot from Threads (no, I'm not on there) drbbavruthie posts: If I say, "ketchup is the worst," that's just an opinion. If I say, "people who like ketchup are idiots," that's bullying. If I say, "because I don't like ketchup, no one should be allowed to have it," that's oppression. If I say, "people who eat ketchup are dangerous and must be controlled," that's racism, bigotry, or fascism. If I say, "anyone who defends ketchup should be silenced or locked up," that's the destruction of free speech and democracy.

Tinderblox - 8/10 fun group game

Word Yahtzee - 5/10 Boggle and Yahtzee's love child, it's okay

Here to Slay - 6/10 I can see the potential fun for more than 2P

I'd recommend them all tbh, they fit different moods and dynamics of play. These are all 2+ players!!
The tin for Tinderblox. The entire tin is in a rustic art style that depicts a campground. The background shows a moon high in the center of the sky with a few mountains overlapping each other (a snow-capped mountain overlays another set), a series of trees, and in the center lies a huddle of red tents surrounding a blazing campfire. The foreground shows two thick logs vertically stuck into the ground with a sign displaying Tinderblox (in block type font) on it. In circles are the playtime (3-15 min), player range (2-6), and age range (6+). The name of the game is kind of a pun 3x over as the game comes in a tin (1) full of blox (2), and you build a campfire (3). The vintage 1978 box cover of Word Yahtzee. The background is a brown to tan top to bottom gradient. The foreground consists of the title at the very top of the box in bold block lettering, underneath a sand timer, 7 dice with letters on them spelling out the word 'mice', a die shaker, and a scorepad. The box cover for Here to Slay. The background is black with a few faded trees in silver. The foreground consists of 3 Western style dragon heads at the top, the title directly below them, and then (left to right) a mage bunny in a purple cloak holding a staff, a fighter bear in red holding a hammer style mace, and a unicorn in yellow with a glowing horn.

New to me games 🎲 I've played recently:

Forest Shuffle - 10/10 amazing replay ability

Winter Rabbit - 20/10 I'm biased cause it's my People's stories but the game is great

Finspan - 7/10 another great 'span' game full of facts

Strawberry Sunset - 6/10 good game, pretty art, enjoyable and quick
The box art for Forest Shuffle. In the center foreground is the name with a red fox underneath. The background consists of a forest with sunlight shining through, top left shows a butterfly and a woodpecker, top right the leaves of a tree, bottom left a marten, and the bottom right strawberry and blackberry bushes. All of these images are cards in the game! The bottom right corner has the "Lookout Games" branding. The box cover for Winter Rabbit. The center foreground has the ᏣᎳᎩ and English title of the game along with a rabbit drawn in a ᏣᎳᎩ art style. The background is blue with more ᏣᎳᎩ art. Along the bottom is Absurdist Productions (Publisher), Will Thompson (Designer), and Kindra Swafford & Jonni Ketcher (Artists). The game is written in both languages with all cards being double-sided and two sets of instructions included! The box cover for Finspan, a Wingspan game. The foreground center has a flying fish with the title in spaced out block letters underneather. The background is an abstract depiction of a splash with the bottom left and right corners being full of water and the top left and right corners having little to no water. The box cover of Strawberry Sunset. At the top of the card pack are the words "A sweet & simple card game" underneath in the upper center is the title, and below that is drawn art of a strawberry plant from vine to flower to berry. A few bees are hovering nearby. The background is solid off-white.

8 and a half hours later, I'm in the car and the car is loaded on the back of a tow truck. You can see the flashing lights of the tow truck through the front windshield.

I am also selling this set that I think is perfect for empanadas, potstickers, dumplings, perogies, etc. and its accompanying dip. It is food safe! $35 + shipping.
A handmade bowl that measures 5in wide x 2 in deep. It is a blue/turquoise color with a blue celadon rim. It's matching cup in the same colors measures 3in wide x 2 in deep. This particular shot is from above so you can see how the blue glaze ripples and stops halfway inside. Same bowl and cup set from the side, showing off the carving + the bottom rims. Same bowl and cup set with the cup inside the bowl.

I am selling this little ring dish, for $15 + shipping!
A small, shallow, round ring dish in a dark sage with smokey white swirls in it's center. The same ring dish but from the side, you can now see that the outer rim is also glazed in the smokey white.

The promised reveal!
Six pictures of various ceramic items made by me! All items described left to right. Picture 1: A small tea cup with a deep raspberry inside depicting a carved in wave and wind on the outside. It is a very light beige and blue. | A bowl with moss textured, and various mushrooms carved and spliced onto it. There is a banana slug and poison dart frog unseen. | A bowl, not big, not small. It is two different shades of blue with one melting down over the other. | Another bowl that's not too big or too small, perfect for icecream. It is pink with a reddish pink drip overlay. I specifically made it for eating strawberrt icecream out of! | A matching bowl and cup. They have light diagonal carvings and are aqua in color, and clear on the inside. Picture 2: A fun wonky vase that is pink, white, and light green on the outside. The inside is blue! | A squat little vase that is red, but in a way that makes you think of patchy denim. The inside is tan. | A tan and grey vase with raspberry stripes near the mouth flair. Picture 3: An egg cracker, a spoon rest, a garlic grater, and a small dipping sauce bowl. They are a set, they are all a brownish tan and really showcase the speckling of the clay. | A two toned platter with various leaves drawn on one side. It will be used for charcuterie. | A small ring dish in two greens. | A small black plate. Picture 4: Three trinket sized items. A fox, a ghost, and a banana. Picture 5: Two sets of puzzle piece coasters. The first set are pastel yellow, pink, purple, and green. The second set are orange, blue, red, and brown. They have dandelion and fluff painted on it. Picture 6: A vase with grapes and vines that are tactile, and six tiny yellow flowers are scattered around. It's my mom's birthday gift!!

No worries! If an image has ALT in the bottom right, it has alt text! Alt text helps everyone from those who use screen readers to those who need extra context on why a photo or gif was used.

It also helps posts become discoverable in searches.

You can toggle it to be mandatory in settings.
An infographic on how to write alt text. Title: Writing Alt Text Subtitle: Identify who, Expression, Description, Color, Interesting features (all in different color bubbles) Sentence describing the image on the left: A capybara looking relaxed in a hot spa. Yellow yuzu fruits are floating in the water, and one is balanced on the top of the capybara's head. Various parts of the sentence are bubbled in matching colors to indicate which aspect of alt text is being used.

No one before Trump in recent presidencies could be considered Mufasa, but this is an apt analogy nonetheless.

I find it interesting that the people burned in the past showed up to be burned again, and that those who claim to be so much wiser refuse to follow revolutionaries & community leaders.
A screenshot of a post by bewell24 (site unknown) that says: "Remember in The Lion King when Scar told the hyenas he'd give them everything they wanted once he was king, and then he destroyed the Pridelands and when someone held him accountable he blamed the hyenas because he never held himself responsible for anything? Anyway.."
