The 14-yo has an assignment where he has to write as 18th-19th Century Geologist Georges Cuvier. I'm trying to edit it, and I swear the font is throwing me off. It's too contemporary! #homeschool

And after it snows in #WestVirginia, it rains and melts . . .

This is more or less normal and expected here.

A friend in labor organizing shared this image today. It applies in a lot of situations, across a number of fields.

THIS. If @mcuban.bsky.social went down to Mingo County West Virginia and fixed this public water disaster, it would flip that part of the state. No question.

We need more action. We need much much less talk.

Spending the day preparing for SPUDAGEDDON 2025! This is the new (and likely annual) event where my kitchen turns into a baked potato factory for @mars2614.bsky.social

Not pictured: vegan and decidedly non-vegan chili, and a whole mess of toppings. #FIRSTLikeAMother

Yoooooo

Probably going to bust this out next year. I've been waiting for my youngest to be writing more consistently before getting into something worksheet heavy beyond ELA and math.

I get that, but when the tawdry isn't even sticking (which we can more or less agree on now), it's time to construct a new paradigm and make it hit home.

This is what public water looks like in WV. A lot of urban types say the folks deserve this. No human deserves this. No one cares on either side.

For those playing along, it became a vaguely Thai curry.

It's 3:00, I have no idea what to cook for dinner, and leftovers are depleted. Time to take all the dying leftovers and make them edible?

Not playing a game of one-upmanship, but . . .

I'm pretty sure I haven't been in weather like this since Wisconsin.

A half a decade in Houston, and a decade away from Wisconsin, and the only thing I'm missing is an infrastructure that can handle regular snowfall. #WV

Didn't have Fiestaware getting eviscerated on IG on my 2025 Bingo card, but since this is their Color of the Year, I'm SO here for it.

Y'all!!!!! THEY BROUGHT CHEF & MY FRIDGE BACK TO NETFLIX!!!

Circa 2019, this show deeply impacted my cooking. It got me thinking laterally about leftovers, and made my family's life better in the process.

Looking for any and all advice: it's our annual "wild bird stuck in our rec room" incident and we can't figure out how to get this thing to leave. Wheat berries and water left at the door for it. Do I just sit here and wait for it to get out while my heating bills skyrocket?
