Mostly panoramic photography. Usually about NYC.

Also fountain pens, stationery, journaling, random minutiae, films, food/wine. Usually crabby.

Lovely tradition in our home is watching Charlie Brown Thanksgiving after the meal. Lovely except for the part where Snoopy feeds turkey to Woodstock the bird. That’s just wrong.

Fotografía en blanco y negro de una mujer con gafas y pelo corto (pero no tan corto como le gustaría) reflejada en el espejo de una peluquería. En la mano sujeta una cámara. De fondo se ven sillas, pósters y uno de esos cascos que te ponen cuando te haces la permanente. Black and white photograph of a woman with glasses and short hair (but not as short as she'd like) reflected in a hair salon mirror. She's holding a camera. In the background are chairs, posters, and one of those helmets they put on you when you get a perm.

A muted calico is loafed in the sun, her shadow falling toward her brother cat, who is collapsed in the warm light.

Thanksgiving reminds me of the controlled chaos of ingredients, Dad’s old stained cookbooks, and musicality of kitchen implements at work. I miss him very much.

The rice cooker sings “twinkle twinkle little star” when it puts the rice to bed. Here’s why I should give it power of attorney.

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

Box from mom. Because I consistently go home looking like a hobo and traveling with hardly anything, I usually get all kinds of reject clothes from her (which I love). And she also puts in some snacks.

These are very medicinal tasting, and kinda metallic on the tongue. I got snared in by the all-natural, on clearance 75%, in-date, and had a coupon. Such a damn sucker 🤣

Oh dang forgot to check if they were Tee H Cee ones, phew they aren’t - thank good ness 🤭
Really real branded gummies.

Tonight at 8 pm ET join #DriveInMob as @driveinmob.com and I continue our salute to Tatsuya Nakadai with no help from Creature from the Haunted Sea. We'll be watching Nakadai in Kill! (1968)--adapted from the same novel as Sanjuro (1962). Creature can't ruin our fun!

Occasionally I’m asked if I’m sick of it and want an easier life. While it sometimes seems slightly tempting, I look out the window after a long workday and would miss that view.
