Nothing will make you feel like Victorian waif quite like wandering around your house post-surgery, blanket-wrapped, taking mincing little steps because you have to move but don't want to, then pausing to stare out a window like a ghost before returning to your large chair. Ask me how I know.

The way you can summon me to consciousness with the sound of certain voices... Or how @wryraconteur.bsky.social started playing the #Murderbot trailer on her phone only for me to immediately mumble "Big Screen" from beneath my napping pillow & blanket, so we could both watch on the TV

“Do not bend your neck for that which cuts necks.” A Sumerian proverb, as relevant today as it was thousands of years ago.
Photo of a fragment of a clay tablet shaped a bit like a diamond. Although it is only a fragment, the cuneiform text on it is well-preserved. There is a vertical line down the centre which indicates it once had at least two columns. The colour is reddish brown

So one of the things I love about the Dresden Files RPG is that before you make characters, you make the city. We spent the whole session last night, after two weeks of run up unofficially in discord, talking about what themes/factions should define Atlanta, and its place in the Magical world.

Gearing up for a Dresden Files RPG set in Atlanta, and among much else we have decided on places of mystical importance. Including, of course, The Big Chicken.

If I had a nickel for every time I officiated a wedding for someone I met through D&D, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. So proud to celebrate the marriage of my lovely friends today! (Guest appearance by @lambells.bsky.social who is in the wedding party)

Well, after 3 rounds of tweaking, I think I have finally perfected my breakfast hash recipe. This batch came out darn near perfect. It also reinforces that once again, I am only good at cooking breakfast - but I am *really* good at breakfast.

In the last five hours I have cleaned all of the downstairs areas of my home, hung 10+ pieces of art, and -- for good measure -- baked a cake. Productive Saturday is productive.

Ursula Vernon's Hugo acceptance speech included this delightful anecdote-slash-metaphor-slash-encouragement. www.patreon.com/posts/91410900
There is a species of water beetle that regularly gets swallowed whole by frogs. And while there’s a lot of things you can do to keep from being eaten, once you’re inside a frog, your options are severely limited. Generally you get digested. But this particular species of beetle said “You know, I bet there’s another way.” And it started walking. In fact, it walked through the frog’s digestive tract and out the back end.
This is 100% true, you can look it up. 19 out of 20 of these beetles will simply walk out of the frog, unharmed. It usually takes them about an hour, although one beetle speed-ran the frog in five minutes, which I’m sure was very exciting for the frog.
The moral of this story, if there is one, is that no matter how dark the situation, there is always a way through. And there’s always a light at the end of the frog.
