Starting some chicken stock. I made roast chickens from a great new recipe a couple days ago and need to get the carcasses in motion. Already smells incredible. Hoping I can get the soup made tomorrow!

Stock pot on stove top containing water, onions, garlic cloves, and bay leaves

60th anny of Star Trek, so here’s my Star Trek encounter. In 1992 my friend and I visited the World Trade Center. We got in the elevator and were followed in by this really conspicuous guy with long hair and a little beard and a rock and roll leather jacket look, along with two friends.

Sad to learn about Sam Neill. He’s been a favorite of mine since my early teens when I saw him in Reilly: Ace of Spies. Always fascinating to watch. So much happening behind the eyes. youtu.be/HaxOAhjIIXw?...

Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago @mwrdgc.bsky.social · 06/07/2026

The MWRD is working around the clock to pump down reservoirs which are holding a record amount of water: 13 BG (nearly 20,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools). There are no CSOs in the Calumet area. ICYMI from WTTW - Chicago PBS: ow.ly/Ye7q50ZkQum

Deep Tunnel Reservoirs Nearly Full as Chicago Region Pounded with Rain Over Holiday Weekend. News graphic from WTTW dated July 6, 2026, shows a headline about heavy rainfall in the Chicago area. A map from the National Weather Service displays rainfall amounts from July 2-4, 2026, with some areas receiving over 8 inches. A table lists rainfall totals for various locations, including Sugar Grove (8.39"), Aurora Airport (8.22"), and others. The summary notes that multiple rounds of storms caused flash flooding and that the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District’s two largest Deep Tunnel reservoirs are nearly at capacity.

More art for #worldbeatlesday - I wanted to do a serious focusing on John and Yoko the year before they got together. Was a wonderful project - some of them ran in @teatles as well. 😊 #beatles #beatlesart #johnandyoko #johnlennon #yokoono

More art fun for #worldbeatlesday - this was for a #dtiys last year and I kind of went off-piste in my concept 😅 #beatles #ringostarr #ringo #apple #beatlesart #3savilerow

Drawing of a giant bearded 1969 Ringo Starr laughing and standing beside three Apple buildings, all stacked on top of each other. The other 3 Beatles are tiny and look up at him. It reads “he is 3 apples tall”

More Beatles art for #worldbeatlesday - a collab with the incredible Ash Campbell. They’re not here in BlueSky, so find them here www.instagram.com/p/DJhSiIBxWo... #beatles #beatlesart #teaparty

The realistically drawn Beatles look bored and miserable at a press conference for the Indiana State Fair. They are collectively dreaming of a fun tea party where they look like amazing cartoons

Another #worldbeatlesday art post - a drawing I made of the one and only #malevans, also for the @teatles.bsky.social card game. Good old Mal, without whom the Beatles story would have gone so differently #beatles #thebeatles #beatlesart

Mal Evans, an affable man with sandy hair and horn rimmed glasses, has six arms, holding luggage, an alarm clock, a guitar, a note pad, a teapot, and a hammer and anvil.

It’s #WorldBeatlesDay, so I’m gonna post some of my Beatles art! Here’s a piece I drew for Huw’s incredible @teatles.bsky.social card game. Everything I did for that zine was a joy. Thanks, Huw. #beatles #beatlesart

Mal Evans, a smiling man with black trousers, cream colored turtleneck, sandy hair and black rimmed glasses, holds a steaming teapot and carries miniature versions of the Beatles on his back as they enjoy a tea party. He marches across the word TEATLES, each letter drawn to look like a building.

Millennials and Gen Xers may recognize this song as the main title of "The Adventures of Pete & Pete". But what Polaris didn't dare tell Nickelodeon, for fear of losing the gig, is that the song is about the Kent State massacre. The titular "Sandy" is Sandra Lee Scheuer.

Give me your favorite non-Trek performance from a Star Trek actor: When I was 16 or so I watched Spenser for Hire pretty much every week and I thought Hawk was the coolest guy ever on TV. I suspect I was right.

I have considered Moleskine to be outrageously overpriced for quite some time but using AI to generate a sketchbook cover betrays a level of hubris that is wild even for them. Those high prices and they couldn't be bothered to pay a human? Dump 'em. cjleo.com/blog/moleski...
