Had a heart attack and went into cardiac arrest seven years ago. Glad to still be here.

This collection of campaign signs in my neighbors’ front yard really underscores the value of designers understanding typographic hierarchy.

Trio of signs in a front yard. Two are for Ohio Democratic candidates Amy Acton and Sherrod Brown, with their names in large type. The third says “Hitler” at the top in large type, with a bulleted list that compares his actions to President Trump. Unfortunately, from afar, it appears to be a Hitler campaign sign.

I’m taller (5’0.25”), but I think these should do nicely.

A boy roughly nine years of age is living his best life, his arms thrown up in joy and a grin spread across his face, with Moon Shoes (mini trampolines) strapped to his feet.

My neighbor gave me a peony plant at the end of the summer last year and I wasn’t expecting it to do much yet, but it has offered up this beautiful bloom with a second on the way.

A cotton candy pink peony unfurls petals that look as soft as silk and collectively make for one pillowy bloom.

Post the best picture you have ever taken of your pet (please).

A black dog with brown patches wears a red and silver garland headband with two shiny red stars popping up like antennas. His tongue is out and curled around, its tip touching the very center of his snout.

I haven’t read the story yet, but I nonetheless feel confident in sharing this meme.

My husband and made a two-hour-round trip drive Monday evening in a fruitless attempt to buy a used minivan, which was a total bummer, but I did manage to take a @ruralindexing.bsky.social tribute pic of Hinkle’s Marengo Hardware in Marengo, OH, so all was not lost.

The very very brown facade of Hinkle’s Marengo Hardware, featuring old timey Western type of the business name on a storefront made of flagstone and wood paneling.

This is the time of year where I am reminded of what the world lost when Manischewitz discontinued its White Grape Matzo. 😭

This is my car. I get fewer honks than you might expect, but it brings me a jolt of joy when it happens. I’ve got a few more to add when it warms up.

Back of a VW Jetta with a variety of “Honk if you __ stickers,” with endings such as “are worried,” “if you’re harrumphy,” “if you aren’t going to eat your pickle and I can have it,” and so on.

“Mama. Look what I found in my room. And I know they’re yours. And they say the F-word. Twice.”—My 8-year-old Oops.

Three one-inch buttons are pinned on a lime green slip of paper. Two, duplicates, read “FUCK ICE,” another shows Snoopy in his “Red Baron” persona, surrounded by the words Peace, Love, Unity and Respect. A fourth button has been removed from the paper so as to keep this poster out of real trouble.

The “perfect pair of ‘Monday Socks’” doesn’t exis—

Against a background of hardwood floor rests two feet, each of which are covered in teal socks with black polka dots. The top of each foot has a devious-looking cat with a bow around its neck, and directly below is the message “FUCK IT,” with a small heart between the words.

I know it is small in comparison to the hell that is our political landscape, but this winter weather is breaking me. It’s been too cold for anything to melt, and now my weather app is predicting snow tomorrow and several days of “wintry mix” precipitation starting Wednesday. I need respite. 🥶

True. Timing being everything, I got this text from our neighbors today about a cat on my porch (a frequent visitor). I’m glad that Joe’s people are at least easy to get in touch with. All I know is the cat’s name and that her home is somewhere on Weber.

A text conversation regarding a cat being discovered in the freezing cold.

Text: Neighbor: “We just scooped a tabby cat off your porch. She was howling and shivering from the cold. I assume not yours?” Me: “Not ours. I assume it’s this one?” (Pic of a tabby curled up on a chair.) Neighbor: “Yeah that’s her!” Me: “Thank you for doing that. Do you still have her? Someone on FB told me the owner is on the Weber. I don’t know them but I can try to hunt them down.”

I own a different version of this one, a port-a-potty play set that includes a construction worker with his own newspaper to read while he relieves himself.

I love Playmobil’s extremely specific characters and designs. Like, a firefighter performing a snake rescue—sure, why not!

I used to rent this from our neighborhood video store. The trivia questions got real repetitive, real quick.

Channeled my middle-aged Midwestern mom-hood today by pulling out a classic potluck dessert: The fruit pizza. The toppings on this bad boy included sliced golden mango from Mexico.

A waterlogged but impassioned crowd here for #handsoff in Columbus, Ohio

A crowd of people in raincoats, jackets, and caps, many of whom are carrying open umbrellas. One woman holds an Uncle Sam effigy in the air with text overlaid that says “we the people,” “hands off” and lists items such as “free speech” and “our bodies.”

Golly, Kim Deal is good. Caught her on the second night of her tour of the U.S. and Europe. I have loved her music since first discovering the Breeders as a teen, and her new songs—from her first-ever solo album—are beautiful and timely. 😍

Onstage at the Woodward Theater in Cincinnati. Kim Deal holds onto a mic stand and sings. One of the two backup singers is her twin, Kelley Deal.

I’ve gotta admit, I’m a little angry at, like, everyone right now. Why didn’t anyone tell me about Human Vs. Hamster? I had to discover it on my own while serving as a TV technician for my mom. ☹️

I made a Krampus! There are definitely things I’d do differently next time—turns out that foam air clay is sorta like magma and keeps flowing for quite a while, even when it seems to be almost dry—but on the whole, I feel pretty good about it. #krampus #craft #holidaystressrelief

Name a TV show you’re positive no one remembers but you. I’m compelled to share these two shows that were aired after SNL when I was a kid in the early 90s: Grudge Match and Rollergames.

Still from Grudge Match, an early 90s syndicated show that saw friends with a dispute battle it out in ridiculous competitions, including this boxing match conducted with oversized gloves.

This is Jojo, my neighbors’ improbably large, extremely *plush* cat. He doesn’t get much outside time (which is probably best for the wildlife) so seeing him this morning on my return from a frantic elementary school drop off was a real nice surprise.

Oh lawd, he comin’. Action shot of a chonky gray and white cat maneuvering down concrete stairs and onto the sidewalk.

His Chonkiness, Jojo—a fluffy gray-and-white cat half-curled in a ball. Women’s size seven shoes for scale. (Sorry, no bananas were available at the time this photo was taken.)

Two good things from today: 1.) I helped a woman find the tire that flew off her car while she drove down the street next to my office; and 2.) I saw this sky.

A car’s tire—seemingly in perfect condition—sits on a wide cement sidewalk in front of a white brick wall.
