Decided to try making a candlestick as an early spindle turning project. Finished the spindle portion today. #woodworking #woodturning #woodsky

The wife and I teamed up to make braised/bbq ribs yesterday. They were wonderful.

The real question I have is, "why Charles Dickens?"
Witness the glory of "the greatest story ever told" all through the wide-eyed eyes of wonder of a small boy (& his cat).

An amazing cast in an awesome family film for children of all ages!

THE KING OF KINGS is in theaters TODAY.

Now this clown is on about seed oils?

He's never met a health conspiracy theory he didn't like.

" BLOOD SACRIFICE TO THE DREAD BLUESKY GODS"

Cats for the cat god! Memes for the meme throne!
I am occasionally asked how I've amassed followers on Bluesky when I clearly don't engage in a "follow to get followed" scheme, and here are my best answers:

1. I'm (mostly) an interesting follow;
2. I'm notable outside the service;
3. Early adopter;
4. BLOOD SACRIFICE TO THE DREAD BLUESKY GODS

Doing some training today on Kafka. Ever learn about a technology and want an excuse to use it, but you really don't need it?

I'm looking forward to the part where we learn to turn people into bugs.

I'd also like to give a big middle finger to my car for deciding not to start anymore just before a huge cold snap. Even if it's something we can fix ourselves, it's been too damn cold to touch the car safely.

Yikes.
Maybe don’t pipe up if you have this kind of record?
December 25, 2024 at 2:25 AM
Maybe? But at around the same time we had songs about picking up underage groupies ("Seventeen" and "I Love Rock'n'Roll"), and GnR starting a song with "Daddy works in porno now that Mommy's not around."

In a way, CPD was kind of reserved.
I can't believe we all listened to a band called The Cherry Popping Daddies. That had to have been a prank.
