It’s weird to call it a preview when I give away the ending. Here’s the subject of tomorrow’s video, black locust.

While I was decorating my Little Free Library i had a neighbor drive up and ask me if I get books stolen from it a lot… my answer, you can’t steal free stuff.

I was riding home on my scooter one afternoon years ago and at a stop light a five dollar bill blew across the street in front of me. I still think I should have gotten off and picked it up to this day.

On the very first wand I made for myself I engraved "For the Magic in us all" in Tolkien's dwarf runes. Happy Hobbit day.

I make cosplay accessories for any magic user who carries a wand. The first wand I ever made was inspired by Willow and my love of Tolkien. For years I leaned into she who must not be named's work because I loved the books. I will not be doing that anymore. I make Wands for everyone.

yesterday halfway through making my second wand (around 2 pm) the power to my neighborhood went out. So i had to turn everything off and wait for the power to come back on... the power was restored just before 10pm. So, i'll have to finish the wand later this week.

Just a portion of the stickers I bought at Oklahoma Comic Arts Festival that I now have to stress about where’s best to put. Highlights are @hannahhillam.bsky.social and this @kavehtaherian.bsky.social guy who happened to be there too.

Luckily I got these videos shot before my power went out for over 14 hours Sunday night into late Monday morning. No power and 100 degree weather is nothing to laugh at. youtu.be/HZa2QbDZDsw

My wife, a prodigious sleep-talker, failed to disclose her affliction when we started dating, which led to the fright of my life the night she sat bolt upright in bed and in a low flat monotone loudly declared that “THIRTEEN BABIES REMAIN UNFATHERED.”

I did a murder mystery dinner once and my solution, "We should all just say it was a accident so we can get off this train." wasn't even considered.

Saw this ad in the UniversityNews I’m scanning at work and was wondering if @discontinuedfoods.bsky.social had seen any of these posters in the wild.

Ad for a “Campus Crisis Collection” collectible poster from McDonald’s featuring the poster “Home Game” depicting Ogre’s playing a sport while using various melee weapons.

I grew up in the 80-90’s with parents who square danced. So, I’m familiar with but not a fan of country music. That said, Dolly Parton made good country music.

If it’s not one thing it’s another. My dog (who’s on anti seizure meds) had a seizure at 5 this morning so I stayed home from work. I leave at 3 to run to the store come home to my sofa soaked in dog pee.
