In Washington, we’re trying to pass a state-wide AI data center ban! Sunday, Oct. 4 is the Washington AI Resistance movement’s Day of Action. Wherever you live, your community would NOT be improved by a data center. Speak up and let your elected officials know that you oppose them!

Even after three months in the sink, Scrub Daddy kept smiling. He couldn’t NOT smile. But— the things he’d seen. The things he’d smelled. And the things he’d TASTED — oh, God, the things he’d tasted.

For your International Cat Day inspiration, may I present Pippin, who has never accepted that her second favorite entry window has been rendered inaccessible by a portable AC unit. NEVER GIVE UP, no matter how stupid your goal.
A tabby cat squishes its face against a pane of glass, looking as tragic as if a wide-open door isn’t mere steps away. Inside, the formerly sliding window is blocked by air conditioning ducts.

Kind of sad that the person who said it was going to be sunny today turned out to be woefully misinformed. But no worries, the kiddos go me three fantastic rainy day reads to get cracking on.

What the Puyallup River carried away has washed up on our shore, and the Puget Sound is muddy with runoff. Not complaining, though. We’re very very lucky not to have experienced king tide flooding. #wawx
Debris on the shore of a beach with cabins. The water is brown from river runoff.
