I have a 6.75 Q oval dutch oven (in yellow) that lives on my stove top. It was a gift. I might have chosen orange to match the stock pot I have, but I like it. It's just me in the house & it can easily fit a chicken or a roast. I use it for soup a lot. I am not terribly large or strong.

Some people are so hot they can wear almost anything & still look good. Almost. Those shoes are an abomination & make “jelly” shoes look positively well-ventilated. Can you imagine the squelching noise & aroma when those were removed? And the blisters!

There’s something sad about rich folks who want to live forever that just seeps out of them. That’s the only way I can explain his shiny, tight, sweaty, & scarred face. Just Botox & anxiety, HGH & high blood pressure.

The 80s told me spontaneous human combustion would be a huge part of my life and not one of these MAGA fuckwads is proving Unsolved Mysteries right. May Robert Stack's ghost dickpunch them.

This looks really pretty. And she read a couple of these stories when the book tour for The Sapling Cage stopped at @roomofonesownbooks.bsky.social a couple years ago. (Was it a couple years ago already? What is time?)

My girl cat just waits until the boys are elsewhere before turning on the charm. (Or waits for the boys to start napping, then wiggles her way in when they aren’t looking.)
A black and white cat with a pink nose and light green eyes is up on back legs, reaching onto the leg of a person seated in a green chair. The person is barely visible, the cat is looking straight at the camera.

I am not a particularly maternal person, but even I can see a future where this man’s wife and child(ren) do not speak to him. And he will be baffled.

All the possible trigger warnings as the description of the assault is brutal. I can’t say much else without getting myself put in a BlueSky time out.

I will actually use my fabric stash and/or finish my abandoned crafts before I ever cross Hobby Lobby’s threshold. They were dead to me way back with the looted antiquities.

My babysitter was watching Death Ship. I was maybe 5 or 6 & she didn’t seem concerned I was watching with her. When I watched Temple of Doom my parents were unaware I was peaking out of my room at least.

As a white lady in a purple state, I can guarantee I have had lunch w/many folks on “the other side” over the years & don’t need to waste my time any longer. They have dug in on the side of bigotry & any respect I may have had to offer them is dead. I don’t need a futile rehab project.

A few more days left to submit writing for my collab zine "Act Your Age: Fandom at 35+ and Beyond - Vol. 4" This issue is focused on toxic fandoms. Find out more and submit something below! All contributors get two copies of the zine. Deadline: Oct 9 tinyurl.com/ActYrAge4
 A square promotional graphic with a bright yellow border and a black background. Large white text at the top reads, “ZINE CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: ACT YOUR AGE: FANDOM AT 35+ AND BEYOND – VOL 4.”

The graphic asks, “Were you a fan before stan culture took over the internet?” and invites thoughts on “toxic fandoms, celebrity obsession, parasocial relationships, online pile-ons, or how fandom has changed?” A white speech bubble near the upper right contains the word “Toxic!” in yellow handwritten-style lettering with a black shadow.

Additional text says the zine is looking for personal essays, stories, comics, art, and other creative work from fans age 35 and older reflecting on fandom, past and present.

A large underlined link near the bottom reads “tinyurl.com/ActYrAge4.” The bottom right reads, “Deadline: Oct 9, 2026.”

Took a walk in the woods, saw some fungi, turkeys, & a very fat ground hog.
Likely orange mycena fungus sprouting out of a crack in tree bark. They are no bigger than a silver dollar each, stacked atop one another.Browned white oak leaf and acorn, lying in the dirt on a wood trail.Light brown shelf fungus with a white underside on a dead tree trunk. Dew is visible dripping off. Each bit of fungus is slightly curved up and about 10 inches across.American pokeweed flowers (tiny and pink stemmed with green centers), smooth pointed leaves, green berries, and in the background ripe berries that have turned dark purple with fuchsia stems.

This story is great but man I am laughing at how much this guy looks like Michael McDonald - did any other genes even make it in? If you told me that he’d been the result of asexual reproduction by Michael McDonald I’d believe you

Got to play every dog owner’s favorite game this morning, “What Are You Eating?!” (Answer: unknown, he finished by the time I ran outside.)
The face of a sable & white Pembroke corgi who pleads the fifth and has no idea why you’re so concerned about the snack he found in the yard. Just a blank expression.

Much more charismatic & personable than he seems on TV. He talked about reproductive rights, data centers, the environment… and I listened to dozens of people share their top concerns as well. He stayed to talk with everyone.
