If you have it please donate cash to the food banks. $10 in their hands will feed more people than the $10 worth of canned goods you can buy for retail prices. Also check on your elders. Many of them will not admit they rely on these programs so grocery gift cards or a surprise bag of staples

Let the doors be shut upon him, that he may play the fool no where but in ’s own house.

Had to do a lot of collected work on short rein today because we had to work on the scary end of the arena AND leaves were falling on the roof! LEAVES! Horses. I threatened to stand outside her stall with a rain stick.

The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast' 10/10 response, no notes

So to recap. . I'm trying to get tires for my sister's car. She's a disabled single mom living on $400/month who just lost food stamps. She needs her car to get to the food pantry. $116.06 needed (includes installation fees) PayPal.me/Starbroken

The photo: The comments you will laugh at:

I am deeply stressed out and depressed and I can't even tell you why. I mean, other than everything. But I've been noodling along okay despite the everything, and suddenly I am not. Diagnosing myself with a terrible case of Hasn't Touched Grass, will fix that this weekend.

Tired, stressed, desperately want to do some stupid co-op game but none of my friends or family want to play Jump Space or Peak with me, ruuuuude

We're just. Continuing to annoy the DM. As you do.

I will repost this forever.

When players have too much time on their hands

This week in ~ character development ~ I damaged something important to my husband & just told him instead of hoping he didn't notice & dying of anxiety until it inevitably blows up because I didn't just tell him Only took me /checks 41 years to shed enough anxiety and trauma to behave reasonably

Me: follows someone who looks interesting That person: follows me back Me: aaaah why would they do that???

Ths is incredibly important.

Do not build your identity on your relationship to other people for the same reason you should not build your house in a flood plain

Mare was a bit stiff today--she hadn't had her other rides this week, temps dropped, don't blame her--so we just did some walk/trot stuff. Asking her to use her abdominal muscles and carry her own damned self, which is the height of rudeness, but nothing crazy.

All cleaned up and ready for her parade appearance later today. See you soon, Chicago!

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

No medieval filter here! A modern recreation of a Viking ruler for Denmark’s National Museum, based on the depiction of Cnut in the New Minster Liber Vitae and on clothes found at a grave in Mammen, Denmark. #medievalsky

My favourite academic / IT story involves a phonecall to our IT support: Support: Hi, Alex. How are things? Alex: Fine thanks. Support: So, what can I do for you? Alex: It's my computer. Support: What's wrong with it? Alex: It's on fire?.......What do I do?

And it's another short thread @wingsndnsilver.bsky.social with tonight's inventory selections, 4 additional necklaces from The Beaded Hoop Collection that, like the featured one, are perfect for this season:

I have a whole thing about small indie designers/publishers making great games from the heart. I had the chance to play Club Spooky a few weeks ago and was utterly charmed by it. There's tension in the simple auction system that lures club goers to your hall, solid scoring and tableau building...

BREAKING: Sens. DURBIN, DUCKWORTH were just denied entrance to the Broadview ICE Facility in Illinois, unable to conduct constitutional role of oversight.

there’s this weird idea a lot of people seem to have about how all of us writers and artists must secretly want to use AI and are merely resisting temptation for ethical reasons, and like, no, it’s not hard for me to resist drinking the bowl of Piss With Glass In It actually

Hooooly what!

Someone is seriously suggesting I rehome a crypto positive snake instead of euthanizing. Yes they can live a long time asymptomatic, but this isn't the sort of problem you hand off because the idea of death makes you sad. You know what makes me sad? Animal suffering.

I have passed through the yell, cry phase of grief to the not feeling anything phase, because I have other shoes that can yet drop on my head

I am a being of incandescent rage and sorrow

FUCK

It is Spoopy Season my dudes

"Do you guys want to play Jump Space with me?" "After we're done with Baldur's Gate 3" "...hey Josh do you want to play Jump Space with me?" "After I test this motor real quick." And then, friends, it was too late to play. :)

"Why are there letters in my math?"

People need to stop buying plains hognoses and then being sad on the Internet that the snake has an attitude. My guy you bought the attitude snake. Add more clutter, give them time, and assume sometimes they'll still hiss at you. Because hognose.

This is my regular reminder to everyone that jstor is open to the general public now; a free account there will give you access to 100 papers a year.

@peculiarityshop.bsky.social I wore the snake earring I got from you guys to an event today and got lots of compliments on them but I discovered it's hard for me to talk you guys up because apparently I can't say peculiarity

This only happens to you once

Dave Matthews has the opportunity to do the funniest thing.

We are supposed to do a public ritual in Sunday at Greater Chicagoland Pagan Pride, but I haven't seen the script yet, and honestly at this point I'm just armchair diagnosing the senior druid with adhd, becuase, man

"You talking shit about me?"

Too late, Batman. Once this Tylenol floods the city's water supply, my wiki won't run out of editors ever again
