What is this at my kitchen table?

There's some wild shit happening at the Castle de Kotchen today.

Creep! Sneaking peeks at me while I was watching #WecomeToDerry and cawing the details to his friends. Get your own #Roku! The least he could do would be to come tapping at my chamber door like a proper gentlecrow. #Poe #TheRaven #Crows #Critters

Five minutes into #WelcomeToDerry : Holy fukkin' shitttt!! Last five minutes: waaaaah!! Why #StephenKing? Why?!?!

Venturing into the big ole city of.Denver to see del Toro's #Frankenstein at the #MayanTheater. And I realize, I have no idea which century I was in the last time I was here. I KNOW I saw the Rocky Horror Picture Show here in the 80s or 90s, but who knows the last movie here.

It's the 🎼 "Season of the Witch" 🎼 #SeasonoftheWitch #witchy

Does this say more "gothy colander" or " nah nah nah nahnahnah nah Batman"? If only I'd found it in black. #bats #goth

On my way for to the Vampie Ball before the final performance of the #Dracula ballet in Denver.

Thoughts and prayers to Cosplay Cop Kristi who had to brave the dogs, farmer’s markets, capybaras, and marathon runners of Portland this week.

Balancing the checkbook. Just missed filming a crow slowly flying by.

Lightening crashed and the electricity went out. "Kicking it old school," as we Gen Xers say.

Serious ass #crow murder party this morning! I was not invited and they left minutes later. A brunch of 🪱 🪱 maybe?

Art. Nature. Art. Birds inside and out.

The #chipmunks are especially #feral today. I am afraid I will fall into becoming a Quiet Poster if I do not get back into the posting groove.

Fact-checkers working hard to keep up…

Just joined #Bumble to make friends and connect with the world. Advice? Will probably use it for dating in about six months. Definitely need advice on that!

I am so behind on this! I even went to Worldcon and had #MarthaWells sign a book. Watched her on a panel, and had no idea about a new book was coming so soon.

#chipmunks are ready for Halloween!!!! #critters

Saw #thelongwalk film and... it was fine. It was good. Makes me want to read the book again. Really felt anti-war sentiment of the government chewing up and spotting out young men. And why? For what? Not for the betterment of anybody who the sent in.

Good morning. Whatcha doin' today?

Watching that noble beast on a stump while checking email and bluesky.

Coffee with the #critters.

Just hanging out front, shit talking nature, downloading the @sgj.bsky.social book #BabysitterLives from the library. #booksky #critters

Still available:

Enjoying making a #shelfie or two today. Slewfoot #slewfoot by Brom @geraldbrom.bsky.social has such a lovely cover. #bookshelfie #booksky #bookrec

What have I been doing since #seattlein2025.org? Not unpacking, that's for sure! My house is a smear of books, badge ribbons and memories.

In a world where greed runs rampant… justice is best served radioactive. THE TOXIC AVENGER, starring Peter Dinklage, Kevin Bacon and Elijah wood, opens in theatres August 29. Get tickets: bit.ly/4mjL51H #TheToxicAvenger #ImWithToxie

Breakfast in the Canyon.

Back from Seattlein2025.org and warming up my toes on my favorite statue this morning. My skin is dessicating, my sinuses dried out. My lungs only fill 3/4 of the way no and already I can only walk half as far without losing my breath. Welcome back to Colorado, Bex!

My critters all had an awesome time in Seattle for #seattlein2025.org

I finally found my tribe. #seattlein2025.org

Ain’t no dance party like a John Scalzi dance party… because a John Scalzi dance party is mandatory! (Just kidding. But seriously, you should come.) Friday Night Dance Party with John Scalzi Sheraton: Metropolitan Ballroom Friday, 8 p.m.–2 a.m. #SeattleWorldcon2025

Oh gosh. Oh no. I bought allllll the books. My backpack is full today. #notenoughbookscases #seattlein2025.org

And so it begins! #seattlein2025.org

It must be over 21 if it's ordering champagne in 1st class. Shame it came in a cup and not a flute. #seattlein2025.org

To clarify: I am going to #seattlein2025.org, NOT Portland, OR. So that alarmed me a bit. They seem to be sharing today. #dia

Holy Moley, I thought the edibles kicked in early! then I realized it's just DIA doing its thing. #worldcon. @seattlein2025.org #DIA

IT'S SO GREAT TRAVELING WITHOUT CHILDREN!!!!

Going to make some badge #ribbons for #Worldcon. Anyone have any advice? @seattlein2025.org

I was going to create more outdoor #selfies this weekend, but I've been too rushed getting ready for #SeattleWorldon!

Yesterday, and excellent use of my time #makingfriends with #critters. I would say I was the supervisor, but after I was done filming, I moved the spider for them so they could take a break

Spent the morning yelling at #critters because I was only getting video like this. Off to work, playing with #books.

How do I ask the adolescent moose in our neighborhood to quit sticking his butt out in the road? I understand those trees are shady and tasty. I appreciate that he enjoys straddling the ditch and keeping most of himself off the road. But sir, after dark you need to take one step forward.

1. The extra marginal tax rate will affect millionaires' daily lives almost not at all, which is why in reality none of them would leave the state. 2. When you have this much money, your accountant/financial folks are already making you as tax efficient as possible. www.wbur.org/news/2025/04...

Any guesses yet? #NickCutter.

Working on another #outdoorbookshelf project. Guess which #NickCutter novel I am thinking of...

Getting my tourist hat ready for #seattleworldcon2025
