Have there been meat raffles All This Time in the mid-Hudson valley?! Have I always had the opportunity to support the firehouse by taking a chance on a side of beef? So. Many. Questions. #uglydogs

Two story porches are absolutely a thing. I don't know what's the matter with all of you. To qualify, they are covered at each level. Porch = covered, deck = open, balcony = Juliet. Decks can be front or back. This is an upper level deck masquerading as a porch.

Maybe not real? At least sounds like it's unusual enough that you don't come across it.

@peculiarityshop.bsky.social Treasures arrived today! They are the gleamiest gleamers -- don't know why that doesn't show in the pic. I've already packed them back up because they are supposed to be gifts but that spider was trying to skitter onto my finger 🕷️

Just need to share my @solexposre fox print. I broke up the triptych & gave a print to each of my daughters. I love feeling connected by fox!

@peculiarityshop.bsky.social 1/2 Was really having trouble taking this one out of the box. Thought I might keep it as my own one-ring museum. I put it on. I took it off. Put it on the other hand, took it off. Then I realized..

Note to DHS, when Rockwell painted The Problem We All Live With, he didn't mean that Ruby was the problem. (Once more for those in the back: the problem was and is racism.)

Maasai number one and a half to 2 million. Many Maasai, perhaps most, prefer sleeping in their traditional homes on their traditional beds. I'm not about to say, or even to imply, that they are wrong. I believe that implications of wrongitude in this thread snuck in with a certain duvet proponent.

A cot is more spartan (and narrower) than a standard single bed. It can sometimes refer to a folding bed with a thin mattress, or else something like this.

Ah. So I'm familiar with all the kinds of windows mentioned. And I live in a house now where all the windows either operate on a crank or fixed. But in certain parts of the country are windows like the below really so rare?

Spent day voluntarily offline (😮), exploring a local Quaker Meetinghouse, built 1780. Brand new by German standards, but a pretty darn old structure round here. It was built with seating for 1,000 people: hard to show how big it is because it's bifurcated. Separate men's and women's sides.
