Kate @kosmicpossum.bsky.social · 19/03/2025These blueberry mini pies are not pretty, but they are delicious. It’s all I can do not to eat four of them right now. 290
Kate @kosmicpossum.bsky.social · 07/03/2025These go by a lot of different names, but I call them Five Layer Bars. Made them for my D&D group last night, and I am quite pleased with the results. 080

Kate @kosmicpossum.bsky.social · 13/02/2025Today’s project: tiny chocolate pecan pies. Confession: I used store-bought mini pie shells. Still delicious. 150
Kate @kosmicpossum.bsky.social · 11/02/2025Looking for fun, funny, sexy escapism in These Trying Times? Kimberly Lemming’s Mead Mishaps series is full of fated mates, sexy demons, and Black female leads who are equal parts smart, hilarious, hot, and charming. I tore through all three pretty fast because I was having such a good time. 031
Kate @kosmicpossum.bsky.social · 09/02/2025We’re on round five of focaccia now, and I think I’m getting the hang of making sure the dough is properly hydrated. Used AP flour instead of bread flour based on my internet research, and that seems to have been a good move. 050
Kate @kosmicpossum.bsky.social · 05/02/2025Just finished with The Mimicking of Known Successes, which is both sci-fi and classic gas lamp mystery all at once. The world-building is fascinating (if hard to visualize), and I loved the characters. Also, space lesbians. 2181
Kate @kosmicpossum.bsky.social · 04/02/2025Oh, you voted Republican because you wanted to save babies? USAID saves babies, you absolute fuckwit. Our health care agencies save babies. Birth control and comprehensive sex ed and social programs that serve mothers and children save babies. You made the baby-killingest vote you possibly could. 093

The last Apartheid Prime Minister, a man who refused to testify at the Truth and Reconciliation Committee, was a family friend who stayed at their home. This is not a crazy theory. 141187236610

Kate @kosmicpossum.bsky.social · 24/01/2025I like Wallace Stevens' writing better, but honestly, that time he came for Ernest Hemingway and got his lights punched out? Dude kinda had it coming. He was good on the Supreme Fiction, but apparently missed out on the Supreme Non-Fiction of "talk shit, get hit." #poetry 131

Kate @kosmicpossum.bsky.social · 21/01/2025Just finished with the last of Becky Chambers’ Wayfarers series, and I wish it weren’t over. These books are cozy sci-fi at its best, with charming characters and thorough, interesting world-building. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a bit of escape. 240

Kate @kosmicpossum.bsky.social · 13/01/2025Previously, my position had been “I won’t consume anything new Gaiman makes, but I’m keeping my old stuff.” Based on the latest article, I have moved to “all the Gaiman is coming off my shelves because I don’t think I could ever enjoy it again.” 440

Kate @kosmicpossum.bsky.social · 04/12/2024It’s Spotify Wrapped Time! It’s very obvious who I obsessively listened to before going to shows, but there’s some pretty decent variety in the numbers, and I enjoy the sharp jump from pop to sea shanties. 020
