I later watched all of “Breaking Bad” while only referring to his character as “Todd.”

Cartoon guy (Todd in “Bojack Horseman“) wearing a yellow beanie and red hoodie (same thing he always always wears) and holding up a cellphone with his own, identical picture on it.

Netflix’ blurb for “Hamnet” cracked me up.

“A young Latin tutor falls in love with a woman who is rumored to be a witch. As they build a life together, they must navigate tragedy and heartbreak.”

Depending on the length of the quiz, I fell into New Hampshire, Maine, or my adulthood territory of Maryland/DC. I am curious whether some specific answer would have knocked me from NH or Maine into Vermont!

Results from mydialect.us — I sound like a New Englander, ayuh!

DC Arts Center’s WallMountables show ends this week! We thought Friday, but it looks like they may have extended it to include Saturday, 11 to 4! Last chance to see this dangerous bobblehead and all its spiky friends.

Furry abstract cryptid with rusty razor tooth and curving antennae (actually they are street sweeper bristles, also rusty). If you were at the gallery, I would let you touch its fur and make it bounce.

A bunch of @museum-wanderer.bsky.social ‘s fabulous cyanotypes have already sold, so your only chance to see them in person is to come out to DC Arts Center! (& then you can buy the others, not pictured…)

Two cyanotyped collages: pensive woman with vulture; exquisite framed snail.

“Pollen Dancer,” a cyanotyped collage image of a woman in galactic swirling outer space, poised atop a ginormous spiky grain of pollen.

Cyanotype toned with wine tannin, a lovely murky collage of a hand holding a strangely plump valentine heart.

Art opening at DC Arts Center tonight! Website variously says 6-9 and 7-9 so you might want to shoot for laterish? Unless you want first crack at new art! One year I did have a piece that sold by the first 15 minutes of the WallMountables opening night. (Shown: “Fetch Quest,” detail.)

Tiny skull, wasp nest, driftwood, very tiny shell on aged leather and rust.

Getting ready for the annual community art show at DC Arts Center #wallmountables — this is finished, but still needs a title. 🤔

Close-up detail of assemblage sculpture with rusty barbed wire, melted bottle glass, rose petals, and a rat shinbone.

Porcupine sacrum. (After soap bath, before hydrogen peroxide) #notanartworkyet

Porcupine sacrum bone (sort of rectangular with holes and protuberances), looking taupe-brownish on a white background.

I don’t know anything about her but I have seen Auntie Mame, which is now how i am picturing your car. 😊

Rosalind Russell looking fantabulous and shiny, plus awkward little boy.

Here is a real cat. A real long cat (it’s already 84F here with a “real feel” of 90).

Beautiful grey mackerel tabby, all stretched out though still preferring the rug over the wooden floor. Her back feet are on the floor. Maybe like when I stick just my feet outside the bedclothes.

I keep glancing at my phone and thinking it’s fully charged.

Phone icons: battery 56% and temperature 100 degrees

Susquehanna view from Port Deposit, our traditional post-camping lunch spot. (The palm trees are in pots!)

Blue sky, white fluffy clouds, blue river, dockside cafe tables, and waving palm fronds in the foreground despite the Maryland hills in the distance

Searched my photos for “leopard” (because of a Trumpie i know whose face hurts) and this came up.

Extreme closeup of a grey mackerel tabby cat looking like she wants to eat your face.

I am an atheist, but definitely this sort of atheist. (Though they didn’t ask any questions that would out one’s gothier tendencies. Catholicism for the aesthetics, definitely!)
