Fascinating how the disapproval follows highway lines in rural areas.

In trying times, we have to find joy in the little things, like Nightmare Before Christmas sponges. We can scrub with Jack and Sally if we want.

Spent the first 3/4 thinking he was getting a quick shave. Clearly I need a nap.

Hi, @harvilla.bsky.social, we were encouraged to hold you to an 8/5 show return by, well… you. I opted for a 1-week grace period, but can’t help but notice that there was still no show today. Did a St. Swithun’s Day celebration get too crazy last month? When does the best music podcast return?

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

I’m fully the same as your wife. I don’t do gore, don’t revel in scary. And I’m so into Widow’s Bay. It’s so great!!

I mean, one would be lonely!

Poor thing being out in the cold. So glad you found her!! Ours was found with 8 littermates chained to a fence in rural Arkansas. They were spread between rescues in 4 states, so I’m always on the lookout for possible relatives. Quite glad to have seen Tilly, regardless!!

She’s so cute, but I mentally made her bigger! DNA testing said Ollie was strongly German shepherd, husky, malamute, and chow. But all good boy.

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 02/07/2026

Your Tilly made me do a double take. Ollie looks so similar that I wonder if I might have a Tilly sibling.

The absolute relief of 17. Woof, 25-26. COYS!

I don’t know why I let myself believe, but I totally did. Damn it.

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 24/08/2025

This is the positive prediction I needed in 2025.

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 17/08/2025

Yeah, the last two nights it’s sounded like lightning was hitting my roof directly. And it looks like we get round 3 tonight!

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 10/08/2025

I’m ready to let you guide my life’s journey.

Can’t we have one space where we’re not expected to join a teams meeting? Damn.

Everything is a nightmare this week. Who wants to see a picture of my baby dog, Twyla?

Picture of a black and white dog, Twyla, who is adorable.

Loving the lengthy detour into Ted Leo on the new 60 songs by @harvilla.bsky.social One of the best shows I saw in the 00s was Ted Leo @ Magic Stick in Detroit. It was coincidentally the same night that Malice at the Palace happened. Was wild to have that on the screens and Pharmacists on stage.

I was a tiny child for the 1988 Pistons run and I still remember that sting. Brutal.

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

I’m just going to drop this relevant quote from The Good Place. The Good Place Committee and the Democratic Party are the same.

Michael from The Good Place underneath text that says “The Committee is terrible. The Titanic is sinking and they’re writing strongly worded letters to the iceberg.”

And yeah, that’s the Democratic Party.

So proud of Fenton! Way to show up for America!

So proud of my hometown!

On repeat for years for me in the 90s! Basically the summer anthem album.

Listening to the new 60 songs - 2000s and there is, once again, a shared music experience to @harvilla.bsky.social Today’s is a St. Andy’s shout out. Legit, one of my all-time favorite venues. In my record store employee era, I managed to catch the White Stripes and Weezer there. Glorious!

I need the street taco sized chicken chalupas to come back. They were the best thing I’ve had from Taco Bell since they killed the grilled fajita wrap.

The way I overthink it: have I been looking too long? Do I need to look away to not be weirdly intense? What do I do with my face?! I psyched to try this nose bridge tip.

The days we lose our dogs are the hardest days. I am so sorry you’re experiencing this now. He looks like a very good boy.

This was the boost I needed today.

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 18/05/2025

Exactly that! I have no problem with PhDs authoritatively sharing all their hard-earned knowledge from their field. I struggle with folks using the Dr. title to gain credibility speaking as though they’re medical experts while not making it easy to discern their area of study.

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 18/05/2025

Thank you for sharing what she is a “doctor” of. Anytime I see a person dispensing medical opinions who also refers to themself as Dr without an MD/DO, my skepticism is activated.

Welcome back my friends, to the infinitude of the private man.

My 9yo has been working it into songs. Yes he’s been influenced by his xennial mom. “open up my eager eyes, cause I’m chicken jock-kay,” or “1-2-3-4 take the elevator cause the chicken jockeys coming up to getcha” No popcorn was thrown in the making of this post.

YEP! I manage 2 single-area focused journals. We run articles that reach differing conclusions and commentaries offering opposing perspectives. So while we publish opposing viewpoints, we won't publish badly designed studies or pseudoscience. So if this is RFK-fueled, it probably doesn't count.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Ollie likes to sleep on pillows. I like to take pictures of it whenever it happens.

Couch reservations are currently full. Please check back later.

I appreciate the encouragement to expand my home library. Off to the bookstores I go!

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 18/03/2025

I absolutely will! That is a brilliant product concept. Nicely done!

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 18/03/2025

We have a very similar rewatch list. But I’ve got Ted Lasso and the Good Place on there too, and have never tried Rick and Morty. Now I’m feeling like I need to

Oh my god this makes my organizationally minded witch heart so happy

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 16/03/2025

That feels about right. This season is brutal.

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 16/03/2025

What a beautiful way to demonstrate the frustration of being a spurs fan in this season. Fml

So what you’re saying is both the cybertruck and this SpaceX ship are both experiencing similar performance issues. Maybe we should be looking into the common denominator between these two companies whose prize products are sloughing off important pieces of their exterior shells.

Kelly @backtokc.bsky.social · 15/03/2025

On a rewatch of The Good Place, I recently noticed this quote by Michael. I think there is no fundamental difference between The Good Place Committee and Democratic leadership at this point.

These are incredible shots! Thank you so much for sharing (especially for those of us whose alarms didn’t do their jobs at 1:30 in the morning).
