In my dream last night there was a girl getting ready for a costume party and she had a toothbrush moustache. I just stared at her in shocked silence for a bit then said "Oh, Charlie Chaplin?".

If you have a Gmail account, you need to read this. Google's AI now scans your emails and attachments, bank statements, tax files, medical letters, all of it. It turned on by default, and there's a class-action lawsuit over how. Here are 5 moves to shut it off, the switch is hidden in two places:

We have a few paper wasp nests on our back porch. They have been totally harmless, so we decided to keep them.

I got some custom stickers through @deathbystickers.bsky.social to sticker on my sticker bottle.
Three vinyl stickers in a simple vector art style. A fox (Fur Fox Ache), a smiling lemon (Teasus Christ), and a brown-haired boy wearing a shako (Duck Serenade).

At the beginning of every school year, the art teacher at work does a project involving all the students and staff. This year's theme was tetrahedrons, so I did an art deco D4.
A large tetrahedron made of paper. Numbers are written on each side so that it functions as a four-sided die. The base color is black and there are typical Art Deco fans colored gold in each corner of every face. The numbers, also in an Art Deco style, are in white circles.

I saw an interesting bird at the park today. I wanted to know what it was called, so I typed its description into Google and ...
A Google search of "black bird red wings" identifies the bird as a "Red-winged Blackbird".

I was having some difficulty keeping the weeds under control, so I went to Google. One of these suggestions raises more questions.
A screenshot of an incomplete Google search and a list of suggested searches. Typed into the search bar is "plants seem I". Google suggests a few ways to finish this search, including "plants seem interested in me sexually".

Discworld QOTD, from Feet of Clay
No more kings. Vimes had difficulty in articulating why this should be so, why the concept resonated in his very bones. After all, a good many of the patricians had been as bad as any king. But they were...sort of...bad on equal terms. What set Vimes's teeth on edge was the idea that kings were a different kind of human being. A higher lifeform. Somehow magical.

Grateful to be able to share this performance. It's one of the few things I still appreciate about the web - that we can document special events and share them. This was special for me: the ferocity of the @co_mahlerfest orchestra is really something. youtu.be/VqXff-9Kn1I

I have been trying to find a print of Berlioz's Funeral and Triumphal Symphony for years with no luck. I finally found one on Alibris!
A black hardcover book with silver lettering. "Hector Berlioz New Edition of the Complete Works. Bärenreiter." It is not shown in the image, but the book is Volume 19 of a 26 volume collection.The first page of the score to Berlioz's Grande Symphonie Funèbre et Triomphale. The movement is titled "Marche Funèbre".
