babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 9h"You were a doll collector furious they didn’t stay in their packaging." Hi, Dad. 020
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I wore Mom's dress in a HS production of Lil' Abner, which was set in the '50s. 010
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 02/10/2026BTW, my mom's surviving dress from '54 & her memories indicate that prom gowns in the '50s were what we'd call tea length. Back To the Future I concurs. But that would be an easy fix with the '48 pattern. 110
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 02/10/2026It happens... like the Folkways Regency gown for adult women that was based on a dress made for a 12 yo. 020
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 02/10/2026You're right; aside from all the advantages you list for the other pattern, this 1 really wouldn't have been considered suitable for a prom gown. The '48 one, OTOH, is perefect! 110
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 02/10/2026A late cat of ours could clearly count to 14 in order to know exactly where we were in my husband's oddball 2 week work schedule (5 days on, 2 off, 4 on, 3 off). He would get extremely upset at any deviations. 000
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Nor feasible for many with mobility problems. 000
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Until this latest development, I was guessing the 80s. This just makes him 19 years more pathetic. 210
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 02/10/2026You could have knocked me over with a feather the day my very right-wing dad casually mentioned 1 if his dogs was gay. He bred hunting beagles & saw it over & over again. TBF, it made no difference in how he treated the dog -- as long as they were good hunters. 220
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I had a rescued ex-stray cat that was terrified of men with beards, but not others. And of doors that opened to the outside. 020

babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Uh, Islam wasn't founded until centuries after Jesus' time. It'd take more than a miracle to make Him a "Muslim Jew." 121
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Oh, so *that's* why I never liked Sauerbraten. 000
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I really doubt he'd be interested. OTIH, perhaps he could be persuaded that taking over as AG & rebuilding the DOJ was his duty. 100
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 01/10/2026The Ringo Dog sounds amaaaaazing. May have to experiment to recreate it. 010
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Confirmed. It's quite visible if you enlarge the pic. 030
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 29/09/2026We have to secure zippers on carriers with twist ties because Vash figured out how to open them on his very 1st trip to the vet. 021
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 29/09/2026None of the ex-strays I've ever known have had any interest at all in going back Out There. One of mine would have a genuine panic attack if I carried him toward an outside door. 020
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 29/09/2026My poor Kami was terrified of men with beards, but friendly to all others. 010
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 28/09/2026He was also terrified of men with beards. Not at all hard to piece that story together... 110
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 28/09/2026All the former strays of my acquaintance have had 0 interest in Outside. Poor Kami would have a literal panic attack if I carried him toward an exterior door. 110
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 26/09/2026It's been a long time, but I don't remember ever being offered any beverage. But I do remember being advised long ago to avoid liquids in interviews because nerves make spilling them more likely. 000
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I was told long ago to avoid beverages during interviews because the risks of spills increases when you're nervous. 020

babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 25/09/2026The only cat I've ever had that moused would bring it to me proudly for praise but needed much coaxing to give it up for disposal. Never at night, & never in my bed, though. Only that 1 house ever had mice, so my other cats never got the chance. 100
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 25/09/2026That's a major reason I prefer cats, actually. 100
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 25/09/2026My 1st name is an object in nature & my last is a common male 1st name. I once made an incel's head explode over on Twitter when he accused me of being a simp & a white knight till I outed myself as female. "But your name says..." "That's my *last* name, dummy." 010
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Whose job was it to teach them that an apostrophe does *not* mean "beware of oncoming S?" 210
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 24/09/2026However, being in ICE means you were perfectly willing, even eager, to commit crimes. The courts can figure it out... eventually. 010
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 24/09/2026HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Wow, you're even more pathetic than I thought. Go back to X where the people stupid enough to swallow that crap are. Bye! 100
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 24/09/2026That changed , as yiu are no doubt well aware. Begone, worthless troll. 000
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Accurate, but cherry -picked & completely lacking in context. If you want anyone to take you seriously, you don't get to do that. You are clearly more interested in argument than facts, & so not worth noticing. 100
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 23/09/2026My family took that ferry route from Ketchikan to Juneau the summer we toured Canada & Alaska in a truck camper. I think my dad deeply regretted trying to sleep in the "reclining" seats (about as much as airline seats) instead of getting a cabin. 010
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Clicking the link leads to a "502 - Bad Gateway" webpage. 000
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Word. I've hated tomatoes & peppers my entire life. Turns out my body was trying to tell me something: eating nightshades noticeably worsens my arthritis. 000
babylon4.bsky.social @babylon4.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Your ignorance continues to not be my problem. Bye! 100
