Curious about this lil guy in the middle! True 7 or smaller/larger? And price?

Curious about the price on this one (circled), though I think someone is also interested upthread.

I’d be willing to bust out of jewelry jail for onyx babbies. And I’m curious about the size/price/status of this dark stone + marc ring:

Good guess for me - I laughed my ass off getting this today. (Bonus picture of my cat Fig being So Helpful.)

This is what I get for leaving the garden alone for three days during the summer. (Not pictured: the metric ton of ripe tomatoes already sitting on the counter that I’d harvested before leaving.)

A variety of veggies lay on a table: okra, purple jalapeños, yellow and red tomatoes, an eggplant, and ground cherries

No pic of it plated because I don’t take appetizing food pics, but I finished it with fresh basil and oregano (also from the garden) and it was delicious. Even if no one else ate it 🥲

Same round baking pan as before, now with roasted tomatoes and eggplant. The top veggies have some nice browning.

Is it still the “viral tiktok feta pasta” if I add a bunch of eggplant that I discovered in my garden? I dunno, but I think I’m gonna like it. Garden veggies are finally coming up in large enough quantities for dinner 💪🏾

Decided to do it up big for my staff meeting presentation during Pride month by wearing my @rosalarian.bsky.social bisexual drip shirt and some finger shinies from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social. Got lots of compliments on the apparel - I assume the presentation was fine too 😂

I get the sense that something happened on The Football today

Three messages in quick succession, all presumably relating to football:
Chris Kluwe, @chriswarcraft: “Damn, that was a hell of an ending. Felt like a playoff game.”

Budget timeline. Pretty quick turnaround between budgets getting sent to schools (February) and completing tie-outs (March).

Budget department recommendations. Not surprising that they want to reduce spending first and foremost (that’s how I read the first two bullet points).

Slide titled “strategic recommendations”. Four suggestions include protecting fund balance, implementing cost containment strategies, advocating for more funding, and being more transparent through more public engagement.

Effin spooky 🦇 @effendancie.blacksky.app · 17/12/2025

Fiscal projections. Lots of language about the projection as a tool, not what is actually happening at the district. “This is what would happen if we didn’t take steps to correct [by reducing expenses].”

A chart titled “fiscal projection: FY 27-FY 31.” Each year shows a growing deficit.

Effin spooky 🦇 @effendancie.blacksky.app · 17/12/2025

Not much preamble into the budget discussion — or maybe *this* is the preamble. MPS, like many other orgs, is under a lot of fiscal stress. (I’m curious about the falling birth rate; we’ve known that was coming for decades…)
