Got some boys to open the jar for us this month. Thanks to the Hugo Guys @rudie54.bsky.social & @picturemecoding.bsky.social & my brother Stephen who is wisely not on social media.

I did win some trivia. Most importantly - Turd Ferguson's hat.

Didn't win, happy anyway ♥️

A podcast episode I made with my phyle.

Today's the last day!

It would delight me to know which scathing review of your own name is your favorite. The Meaning and History of First Names - Behind the Name share.google/QlLUgaeARX54...

I don't post much so when I do you know it's important. A (relative) youth just said "cool beans" to me, unironically. Is it back? Did it ever leave?

It's morbidly fascinating that in the last two weeks we got a raft of executive orders that are just seventy years of stored of grievances. Policy by way of Angry Divorced Uncle.

Bluesky is getting its own photo-sharing app, Flashes

Tom Bombadil is Cottagecore Cthulhu. I will not be taking questions at this time.

I stand by this.

A little spidery, a little messy, a little funny. Perfect for going into the new year.

We did a thing!

If you are what you eat, and what you eat is what it eats, and so on, then ultimately we are all sunshine Happy Turkey Day!

Medieval English laws categorized eels by size. The most common types were: Pimpernell / Pimper eels: very small Shaft / Dole eels: medium Stub eels: larger Red: ?? No one knows for sure what red eels were. But they were bad, & customs officers threw them out if they found any. 🗃️🧪

really fucked up that turkeys spent millennia evolving to not be delicious, only for people to eat them regardless

I used to love going to the salad bar but then they put up a sneeze guard and turned it into an echo chamber

If this link is still live, I had a good time writing a piece about redemption for @speculativeinsight.bsky.social about a month ago. Woulda posted sooner, but that mental health social media hiatus got in the way. 🙃 www.speculativeinsight.com/essays/the-r...

Revenge of the Cat Queen

Michelle Obama just killed a man on live TV

No, Goddamnit, WashPost, it's not on her. It's on him and you. She faces nothing but racism and misogyny. You, as editors, face the test of how you will deal with that. You fail.

Happy 4th of July! In the wise words of Ben Franklin: The Bald Eagle is a Bird of bad moral Character. Too lazy to fish for himself. The Turkey is a more respectable Bird, though vain & silly, a Bird of Courage, and would attack a Brit who should presume to invade his Farm Yard with a red Coat on.
