Wire sculptural forms hanging in a darkened corner of the De Young museum. The artist is Ruth Asawa. This one looks like a large woven net with holes, and reminds me of coral. This sculpture casts a reflection that looks like a neuron

A map, forsooth!
A map of the United States as drawn by a small child: In the upper left, we have Seattle and Bellevue and our house. Underneath that is camping adventure. Please note the s’mores. In the middle left, we have the Arctic Ocean. Then in the middle, top to bottom: the race cars, the mall with the Lego store, Sydney Australia, Paris. Roanoke Virginia has a roundabout. Atlanta Georgia has peaches. And there is a Disney Castle Skydeck. Please update your textbooks accordingly.

Dunno, haven’t seen the Bandai stuff?

I only found an AliExpress set of fashion dolls that all had the same terrifying white lady face and only a vague approximation by dint of hair colors when I was looking.
Definitely not Mira. Cheap looking white and gold clothes on a smiling doll with pink hair that looks nothing like Mira.

Am eating the DiGiorno Thanksgiving pizza for lunch…and I don’t hate it? It’s like when you mop up all the gravy and little left over bits of your plate with a roll and eat it. I do feel it could use explicit mash tho.
DiGiorno’s thanksgiving limited edition pizza. Gravy, turkey, green beans, cranberries.

Uh oh, husband drank some Monster!

He’s turning into Paul Hollywood!
An empty Monster 4-pack sits next to a KitchenAid mixer on a granite-topped kitchen island and a copy of Paul Hollywood’s Bake. Unseen is a big orange bowl with a dough proving.

Doom made me get the globe down so he could look at “Downtown Seattle waterfront” and then Sydney, Australia.

Also he showed his seahorse stuffies.
Doom, a small blond child, points to Seattle on a globe of the world. Doom tries to locate Sydney on a globe of the world.

Flashback Friday: Doom and the Backhoe.

Summer in Sitka.
A small child clambers around on the bucket-claw of a backhoe. It’s been parked on the greenery by the side of a road. Behind it is an inlet of Jamestown Bay in Sitka. It is sunset, the clouds are tinged with peach and lavender.

Sharing Sitka summer.
The road curves through the trees, which are catching the summer sunset light. One peaceful green morning on Swan Lake with clear water reflecting the mountains and trees crisply. Lilies and grasses grow in the water, creating sinuous paths of reflected sky between them. Road curving back to the mountain. The marina with a collection of boats and low distant clouds streaking across a pearlescent sky.

Alt text added for the Union statements vs Condé Nast.

Editorial note: to get the union statement under alt text character count, I changed two instances of the word “four” to the number and removed one article “the” from header that did not change meaning.
Statement from NewsGuild of New York & Condé United on illegal firing of 4 union leaders who demanded answers about this week's layoffs at Teen Vogue, other brands Late Wednesday night, Condé Nast's VP of Labor Relations notified the Guild that the Company was immediately terminating 4 Condé United leaders for engaging in the protected concerted activity of gathering in their 1 World Trade Center office to demand answers on this week's abrupt layoffs at multiple brands including WIRED and the consolidation at Teen Vogue. These egregious terminations are a flagrant breach of the Just Cause terms of our contract and an unprecedented violation of their federally protected rights as union members to participate in a collective action. Through these illegal terminations, Condé Nast management is attempting to intimidate and silence our members' advocacy for the courageous cultural and political journalism of Teen Vogue, as well as diverting attention away from the obvious lack of corporate leadership at the company. Condé United members illegally fired are: • Alma Avalle: Writer, digital producer at Bon Appetit; NewsGuild of New York first vice president, trans activist, and union leader • Jake Lahut: Wired senior reporter covering the Trump White House • Jasper Lo: Senior fact checker at The New Yorker and US Army veteran: outgoing first vice chair of The New Yorker Union • Ben Dewey: Videographer at Condé Nast Entertainment, former vice chair of the CNE unit "Management's attempt at union-busting, using intimidation and grossly illegal tactics to try to suppress protected union activity, will not stand," said Susan DeCarava, president of The NewsGuild of New York. "The NewsGuild of New York has zero tolerance for bad bosses who harass, target and disrespect our fellow Guild members. We represent nearly 6,000 media workers across the tri-state area and we stand firmly in solidarity, ready to fight for the rights of our members illegally fired from their jobs at Conde." CONDÉ NAST Statement from Condé Nast on Filing an Unfair Labor Practice Charge with the National Labor Relations Board Against the NewsGuild November 6, 2025 Today, Condé Nast filed a charge with the NLRB against the NewsGuild of New York for their epeated and egregious disregard of our collective bargaining agreement. Extreme misconduct is unacceptable in any professional setting. This includes aggressive, disruptive, and threatening behavior of any kind. We have a responsibility to provide a workplace where every employee feels respected and able to do their job without harassment or intimidation. We also cannot ignore behavior that crosses the line into targeted harassment and disruption of business operations. We remain committed to working constructively with the union and all of our employees.

The wildest part for me was that it was very clear she didn’t mean all Trump supporters. And all those folks decided it must be about them, opting into being deplorables.
"You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right?" Clinton said. "The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic-you name it. And unfortunately there are people like that. And he has lifted them up."

Behold this art by Doom. Accidental subtext is accidental but hilarious.
A vision drawn in ballpoint pen on printer paper. In the distance, a city skyline peeks over a hill. It’s Bellevue, WA, and we know this because there is no Space Needle in the skyline. In the foreground is a bridge with an exit sign but bc it’s been drawn by a small child, the sign has two arrows pointing up and the letters EXS. A bold statement from a young artist.

Alt text added:
Eight plates and two platters are arranged to form a picture of two women sharing a meal across a table. Two plates depict the heads and shoulders of women while the platters show outstretched hands giving and receiving food in the middle. The remaining six plates depict various foods and tableware all connected. They are illustrated in a charming hand-drawn style in dark blue on white.

After such an incident (bookshelves, I think it was) I made this sign for my former building and they actually printed it up and put it on every floor. :)
A sign in blue. HOW TO PRACTICE CHUTE AWARENESS The main infographic shows a tall building with a chute that has a bend in it and various items wedged in and warnings not to throw heavy items (icon weights) furniture (icon chair) or liquids (icon coffee cup spilling ) To the right is an elephant surrounding a dotted line that says MAKE SURE IT FITS. Next to the elephant are the words TOO BIG. Below the elephant are four smaller panels telling folks to bag their trash, break down cardboard, separate recyclables, and use the bin in the loading dock to donate clothes.

Throwback to the Baby Aziraphale costume (which many mistook for a baby Castiel).
