I just discovered that my dear spouse missed out on one of the minor pillars of the Deep Magic, so I'm sharing it here for anyone else who doesn't yet have this living rent free in their head.

Oh no I just saw a picture of the art supply suitcase go by so it must be time for my yearly psa: don't buy that.

I've been given it many times in my life and it was usable once: in 1989.

"But I don't know what to get my artist friends/talented cousins for the holidays!"

I will help.

Devastated to lose yet another strong voice. Grateful to have what she's said, still.
Our beloved Alice Wong has joined the ancestors. It was one of the great honors of my life to call Alice my friend, co-author & co-conspirator. She was a true genius, a force of nature the likes of which the world has never seen before. I love you, Alice, and am equal parts grateful and devastated

Just watched Suzume with the family and it was very good. Had all of us teared up at places.

And also scruffy cat stuff is never not going to break me up.

Reposting because, and I say this with love, some of you are going to see this and go “oh shit, I need to check my bottle” and then immediately forget about it so if this could affect you, go check right now before you even scroll to the next post, I mean it.

It's a great day to finally delete that LinkedIn account that's just been sitting around since you made it a decade and change ago just to see if it'd be useful at all ever.

This year's costumes were a full family group effort. The kids got a lot of attention tonight! Some folks even asked for pictures with them 😁

Spouse did the mask/helmet construction (various foams on a cheap hard hat base) kids did sculpting, sanding and helped with assembly, and I did the cloaks in fleece (for warmth and to avoid the need to hem anything.)

I'm so pleased with how it all came out, and the kids had a great time

Sometimes raising teenagers means one of them makes some lovely, perfect for fall weather snickerdoodles for the whole family, and that's really nice 😊

Yes, sweetie, the world may be a dumpster fire and no one knows what the future is going to look like for literally anyone, but you still have to do your homework I guess.

Is there a support group for millennial parents of teenagers who are struggling with how to prepare them for a future?

Given that every path we ourselves were ever set on was a rug pull.

And given just absolutely everything about this moment right now.

1) I have to back my way out of an awkward parking space and there are small children around

2) a Star Trek room where I come face to face with my transporter clone . . . or am I the clone?

3) I have been isakai-ed back into my own childhood and it's Sunday
wait okay

👻HALLOWEEN GAME👻

Forgive the ex-mormon musings here, but Columbus discourse always reminds me that one of the most awkward things in the Book of Mormon is an "ancient prophesy" referring to him and then going on to describe white and "beautiful" colonizers "inheriting" the land.
