Dismayed to see an ad on the back of my fortune from the fortune cookie I got at the Chinese restaurant tonight. (Yes, I am, in case there were lingering doubts.)

How’d they get that big candy cane up there.

Lol

SO good

“Ironic!”, they said. “Kicky!”, they said. “Super fun!”, they said. But Carole thought “No, something sinister is afoot”, as she began to realize her stylists did not have her best interests at heart.

Can’t say that I blame him

I’m mender critical. Get yer seams straight or get outta here.

Saw a rhinestone framed license plate on a very mommy-car suv today on Los Feliz Blvd and I so hope it was placed with irony

Aye

Hiding out on Caturday. Can’t say I blame her.

Here’s a great painting.

Suggesting a follow for my friend Quinn here. Her stories are wonderful and she does not, uh, *gestures to the state of things* suffer fools. (Wow.) Also, very funny. Also, animals & human behavior parsed to a hilarious T.

This is such a fun, fascinating ride; I completely recommend it!

The ice cream tour continues. An excellent (home made) mint chip at the Farmers Market in L.A.

NYC actors - This looks like it could be a really fun time!

Well hello L.A., nice to be here.

Quinn is back with an excellent Small Story. It’s got everything - Blood, mystery, family lore, and, as (almost) always, kittens. Also, a sales pitch for her wonderful books, with a portion of proceeds going to charities.

Twelve toes, one bag; the battle begins.

And for World AIDS Day today, I’m reposting this important, sensitive, and profound essay. We all had, and have, our lists of love.

Whatever it is, I’ll take two. I presume you accept ducats.

It's the time of year again -- time to do your holiday shopping from independent artists. It's more important than ever to support people actually making stuff! If you're an artist or craftsperson of any kind, please reply to this with what you make and a link to your store and I'll share it!

Can’t help wondering if @darthbluesky.bsky.social is aware of this development…

🕊️My cousin hosts a morning touch football game every Thanksgiving. The invitation to it includes the usual bits (time, place, etc), but also this kind and wry reminder: “This is a family friendly event. Kids 12 and under must get the ball once every 4 downs. Try not to steamroll anyone over 30.”

Happy Birthday Lazzie

Quinn is a terrific writer. Her stories and wry, insightful, heartbreaking, funny, and delightful. She also gives portions of her profits away to charities. Christmas is coming I’m just sayin’.

⭐️This person is one of my favorite people to follow. I especially love his passion about sports and the paragraphs like this one where I do NOT UNDERSTAND A SINGLE WORD. The less I get it, the more fun for me. (Not an invitation for anyone to explain it.)
