Gray dreary morning. But my autumn decorations still look sweet.

The front of a suburban yellow house with a set of brick stairs and a concrete walkway. It is decorated with large and small pumpkins and gourds, some bright purple fall flowers in pots, stalks of tall grasses, and a door hanging of multicolor corn. There is also a little garden flag with a banjo playing frog that reads, "Stay weird."

Star Trek and snoring time, once again. Going with Too Short a Season. My favorite scene is when Karnas cries out, "Didn't I love him, Gooch? My own flesh I don't love better!"

Actor Michael Pataki as Karnas in the Star Trek The Next Generation episode "Too Short a Season". Keen eyes will recognize him as JC from the MST3K-lampooned film Sidehackers.

Yes! The leg to body sewing illustration is very helpful. But not all of the ears and tails are shown. You kind of have to wing it. Here's my guy. I think maybe I did my ears upside down!

Manischewitz makes certified gluten free potato knishes. And they include no corn and no soy, so I can eat them!!

Elizabeth Lee's performance is like watching Catherine O'Hara doing a disinterested B-movie actress.

IMDB claims that its star, Tony McCabe, died in 1968. But I contend that's just when he started going by the name John Denver.

I don't say this lightly: I've just watched a Manos-level wonderful terrible movie.

A movie poster featuring a dazed looking woman, ostensibly naked, covered by a swirling striped black and red circle. The poster reads:

In startling color
SOMETHING WEIRD

Lust and Passion Surround the Incredible, Supernatural Worlds of ESP and Witchcraft in a Boiling, Bizarre Tale of Mad Love that Shocks Even the Unearthly!

Haunted by a witch's ghastly brew, thunderstruck at his own powers, he crossed the astonishing border of the twilight universe and found debauchery and death his bloodthirsty partners!

Yeah, I was very who-is-this-person about my wedding guest dress options.

Me doing a ta-da arm motion in a changing room while wearing a dark blue textured floor length dress with short sleeves that looks oversized and frumpy on me.

Me in the same changing room in the same textured dress, but in beige instead of blue. I am holding out the skirt to my side like I'm Cinderella at the ball. I look like a pale Muppet exploded on me.

Me doing the ta-da arm again, but this time I'm in a hallway mirror at home. I'm in a dark blue floor length dress with longer sleeves. More form-fitting, so less Muppetesque. My boobs look like two bowling balls in a Hefty bag.

This first pic is how ALT text appears when I click in. Ends on the word "class". No indication there's more. I have to fucking CLICK INTO the text to see that there's more.

Screenshot of a Bluesky image (of a Star Trek scene) opened on a cellphone. The ALT text is in white, way below the picture, at the very bottom of tons of available space. It reads, "Kirk, a redheaded woman in a purple miner's
outfit, and a robed man with his back facing us. She is giving the man a verbal lesson in class"

The same cellphone screenshot as the first pic, but now the ALT text has moved up a little because I clicked into it. A single new word is exposed at the end of the ALT text string: "warfare".
