I have never seen such a perfect image

Today is the book birthday of HEROINE'S JOURNEY. She turns 4! Thanks to any and all who gave my first non-fiction foray a chance. I very much appreciate it. I had no idea it would touch so many, and it's been a delight bringing it to you.

So I understand it's World Octopus Day. (From the Heraklion Archeological Museum. One of what seemed like dozens.)

KPop Demon Hunters is a brilliant film, but it’s also lovely seeing its voice actors, songwriters, and singers become stars after years of struggling in the industry It’s pretty bonkers this is not a real band, and EJAE (lead vocals) hadn’t performed in a decade until this youtu.be/8y-ViyUk7Dk?...

"Ballerina Aesha Ash wandering around inner city Rochester breaking the stereotypes about women of color and to inspire young kids."

Jane Goodall was my first childhood hero, as I loved animals as a kid and was inspired by her story. I still remember the National Geographic specials about her. RIP.

Ulysses reviews All You Need Is Love by Meg Macy: "This winning example of the MM genre, by a big-hearted author who seems to be trying something new, warmed my heart and had me nodding in appreciation... 4 stars." www.queeromanceink.com/2025/09/28/r... #GayRomance @megmacyauthor.bsky.social

Fun fact: I had to come up with this whole species and planet and ecosystem in which they would evolve in two hours because of a deadline involving San Diego Comic Con and now they’re canon

The poults have been getting into trouble while I was gone. Concord grapes are irresistible.

RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. Nʌki’wah brother.

This is my 95-year-old neighbor. He's been living alone since his wife passed away from cancer, and not long ago, he also lost his loyal companion dog. Now, every day, our chicken Hei Hei escapes the yard just to visit him. She sits with him, accepts treats, and lets him pet her like an old

I have made my peace with "alright" in peevish exclamations like "Alright already, I'll be right down," but otherwise the kids, pace The Who, are all right.

Beautiful 1860s Victorian butterfly, which was used to store small packets of sewing needles on the underside of the wings. This was a collaboration between a London-based drapers company and a sewing needle manufacturer. On exhibit at Tatter Blue, a Brooklyn textile museum. IG tatterbluelibrary

Just released! This is the ebook; the print version is coming shortly. If you pick it up, thank you! And if you leave a review on your favorite retailer, I'd be so grateful. shelleyadina.com/amish-cowboy...

My dad was a boogie woogie player. When he played, the plants on top of the piano shook. Get up and dance!

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce announce their engagement on Instagram:

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

Launch The Pie Fighters! :-)

I've had the same thing happen to me: watch out for scammers, people.

Rose Nylund would be so proud tos we the chicken community represented in this way.

Walking through a second hand book store should feel like you’re flying through the trench run on the Death Star.

Stephen Miller tried to claim only real "Americans" built the Empire State Building, but he left out the true stories of the Indigenous ironworkers who actually did. The Mohawk Skywalkers helped shape America's skylines—and shatter the lie behind Miller’s whitewashed nostalgia.

This is my painting 'Seaside' 30x40 acrylic on canvas. It was inspired by Rathtrevor Beach on Vancouver Island. Have a wonderful evening!

Our mechanic adopted some unwanted roosters. Then word got out; now he has 30.😅 You can buy chicken feed from a gumball machine for a quarter to feed them, while you wait. 🥹😍🥰 🐓🐓🐓🐓🛻🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🚙🐓🐓🐓🐓🚗🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓

Today in the wool shop, I learned that people are knitting emotional support chickens. There is a pattern and everything. They are soft and cuddly, fit beautifully in the arms, and never poop in your lap. I have 7 of the live variety, and they are the same. And no, my chickens never poop in my lap.

Oh no. Tom Lehrer gone. At his great age, it’s not a tragedy, I know, but it just does feel bad not having his genius in the world.

Summer McIntosh has won the 400m freestyle gold. And made it look easy. She looked so in control from start to finish. Jumped out of the pool and is now preparing for the 200m IM. She’s the best swimmer on the planet right now folks. And she’s from Canada.

'Hello human, nice to meet you'

If you don't already, watch Colbert. He is a man with no more f*cks left to give. And it's glorious. Check out this song parody from last night's show: Mike Johnson Delays House Epstein Vote Until September

Today’s find—close enough that I can alter it to look like the most beautiful dress I ever owned and can no longer get into.

🪶 Ok so the lady with the couple of poults was on my front porch today, and as they were leaving, the poults flew down rather than taking the steps. It wasn’t proper flying, more like buzz lightyear controlled falling, chicken flapping. But they did it, and they’re less than two weeks old.

Taking a moment to breathe and hoping the ocean will be back soon. K’omoks First Nations walk path.

The U.S. has collected over $80 billion in tariff revenue since Trump unilaterally slapped them on our biggest trading partners. That's an increase of 65% from the previous year. In other words, Americans paid $80 billion more for goods than they should have paid.

This whole "Let's use computers to do everything badly in the most expensive and unethical possible way" thing is really testing me.

Astoria the Wild Turkey enjoys a shady, quiet space in the gardens of Battery Park. 🦃 ❤️

to anyone curious as to how Canadians see their culture as being not only distinct from America but defined by those distinctions there are many places, high and low, to start but you could do worse than watching this 25 year old commercial for Molson Canadian beer www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMxG...

This is 100% correct. NO ONE can sit at home and collect Medicaid checks.

Is it okay for a cozy mystery to have a large body count? Yes, but every murder must drive the plot, affect your sleuth, and alter the community. Use the link below to learn more about this concept and more! How to Craft a Killer Cozy Mystery: books2read.com/craftkillerc... #WritingCommunity
