The feminist analysis of Spiderman: Brand New Day that I’ve wanted to make for months now! I’d ❤️ to know if the film has led to good conversations w/ boys in your life or anyone else about rejection & entitlement & about the conditions for consent. If you’ve had those conversations, what worked?

I recently read Solnit’s Orwell’s Roses (rather, listened on library audiobook) which is entirely about this juxtaposition in his writing. It was wonderful.

I was driving dad to the office yesterday and we went past twin lakes. It was his first time out since we got him home from the hospital (he's doing better). He turns to me and says, "Did we just by a dick? Was that a giant dick?" I wasn't sure what to make of it but apparently, yes.
Did on the ice at Twin Lakes in Juneau.

Love that our news-monitoring anxiety options are: a) take little sips of poison all day long, try to shake it off between doses b) wait to chug a gallon of the stuff until end of day or in the morning c) ignore it entirely and be surprised when Trump-branded tanks roll down your street oh no

I am a former incarcerated firefighter. I served in a California fire camp from 2009 to 2012. Misinformation is afire on the internet, so here are facts about the prison firefighter program, all in one place. A thread.

I was able to do some important cookie research yesterday, thanks to two great @archive.org projects: the IA Lending Library and Bookreader Search. It all started when we went to my parents' house yesterday for Christmas dinner, and my mom pulled out this handwritten recipe for Shape Cookies:
A recipe for "Shape Cookies", written in orange marker by a child. The paper is old and deteriorating.

The current owner of Title Wave may have a good story for you - they started out working with them as a high school intern, I think.

Now that is amazing. I am jealous! How cool to have the kids’ (everyone’s!) first experience of the day be of community, outside.

That is the best edition, in my opinion! I love the woodcut internal illustrations, which unfortunately didn’t make it into later versions. They’re also slim volumes, which fits well with Le Guin’s spare prose. Every page matters.

The literally knee-weakening relief of finding 5 obscure novels from the 1790s on Internet Archive, when my other options were a) pay the currently-wildly-overworked BL research services team for scan & send, b) pay £250 for POD versions via AbeBooks, or c) invent the rest of this thesis chapter.

Dramatic clouds over the bay this morning. Alt text: A time lapse of roiling, dramatic clouds over the San Francisco bay. There are sun rays and rain bands in the background.

First bloom of the season in our little succulent garden! I've been transplanting as many different varieties as I can. This one was from Thornton Beach. It's been a radiantly beautiful few days in the Bay Area.

The view of San Francisco from Mt. Tam. I managed to get above the haze today. With the still winter air and inversion, it was a high AQI day! There were two eagles riding the ridge lift head of me. (Crossposted with #moa )

Sorry @MunkeeRajah to leave that out! San Francisco Bay Area! I think lots of fuyu persimmons have been planted in the last 10-20 years.

Mike McCabe @mikemccabe.bsky.social · 24/11/2022
Another use for our basement CR box / smoke season filter - drying persimmons! They are insanely abundant and delicious here this time of year. (Mostly Fuyu.) #corsirosenthalbox @Jimrosenthal4@mastodon.world CorsIAQ

Usually it shows up better with sunglasses. There’s another amazing video downthread of the post, a timelapse showing amazing dynamic clouds interacting with the same iridescent pileus effect.

‘The tall building makes a rainbow’. My son pointed out that the Salesforce Tower has a nice color gradient as it reflects the sunset sky. View from Bernal Hill.

The plane. It’s a remote controlled flying wing glider, a Weasel from Dream-Flight. @mangtronix introduced me to these 1.5 ages ago. dream-flight.com/products/weasel-tr…

Flying in front of the San Francisco skyline. With a strong steady wind, I’ve been able to fly a glider well out towards the Mission, but today was very choppy. A big group of corvids and a few hawks were also out riding the lift.

Mike McCabe @mikemccabe.bsky.social · 22/01/2022
There’s a strong north wind today. Andrew and I went up to Bernal Hill to fly the glider. The conditions were challenging! It’s nice to fly again - it’s been a long time.
