I made a thing! It's a game called Why Is Toast Jesus Watching Me Eat Breakfast?. It's a solo walking game of pareidolia, and I think it's kind of fun. I may be biased, tho'. conifercrow.itch.io/toastjesus

I just made fifty+ deviled eggs for a party later.

Give me just one good reason not to just hoover them all and stay home, because I'm not finding one myself. :)

Truer words. Be someone's biggest fan today.

How's my Saturday night, you ask? Fine. Great. Just chased a live possum through my living room, but otherwise, things are fantastic.

Just had someone essentially call me a "fake gamer" bc I only really play WoW these days. A) sorry, I can't hear you; I'm too busy having fun and B) nobody asked you.

So my brother sent me this. My single brother. And yes, he gets us gift cards. (I'm #2, and my husband is #3. I have the pen on my desk as we speak. He means well.) www.tiktok.com/@you.betcha4...

This cabinet's nightmare fuel. Hegeseth wrote a book. I quote: "Hegseth also compelled conservatives to “mock, humiliate, intimidate, and crush our leftist opponents” and to "attack first."" Our next defense secretary is a high school bully, folks. ARGH.

Also, I read a thing earlier about the weirdest objects you own, and now I'm incredibly curious to see what everyone else's is. Tell me?

I'll go first: I have a freeze-dried armadillo named Penelope. She wears seasonal hats.

On the agenda this morning: writing/illustrating a short tale about an enchanted aleworks that produces brews that make missing cats come back and love letters reappear.

I love my life.

Just amplifying the call for comic book/graphic memoir artists! It's a paid opportunity for a really great org, too.

Women: just a heads up. If you're making payments on a joint account, make SURE you're both getting the credit. A while back, I found out I don't exist because all our reporting debts are joint. Yeah, we don't need feminism or anything. #moneyghost #wtfcredit #ibuythingsiswear

I think a lot about what @nanjala.bsky.social said once about oligarchy and threats to freedom:

One way to stay free and resist authoritarianism is “resisting the narratives of inevitability”.

We are being told to accept exploitative AI, because our tech overlords say so.

We don’t have to.

oh, and Spicy Take of the Day: If your business can't afford to pay human artists, you don't have a sustainable business. Stealing art (AI) isn't a business plan and rather denotes a lack of character. #practicalmagic #aunties #aisucks

Feeling particularly domestic this morning, I optimistically mopped the kitchen floor. And then...THE DOG HAPPENED. #porkchop #pibblelife

Listen, all I'm saying is that turkey's a zero-calorie food, because spatchcocking that beast is like several *days* on a treadmill. It'd better be good. :D

It's been a while since I had this much abject glee with a social media platform. I'm just skipping around all my fields of interest, following folks all willy-nilly like a kid in a cupcake store. Like, HI NEW FRENZ.

A couple people have mentioned getting to know each other better by posting our favorite movie.

I saw this one 37 times in the theater (not a typo) and even at nine years old, I wasn't sure if I wanted to MARRY Indiana Jones or BE him. It's still a toss-up.

I thought I signed up for this months ago, but apparently did not. This memory thing is the worst part of aging...this, and the three wiry hairs on your chin for no reason. #cronecore
