I started watching Chasing Shadows tonight & spent a good portion of the 1st two eps doing this at the five actors from Doctor Who & yelling, 'There's River! It's Ricky! The President! Hey, that's Martha's mom!' & one woman whose face I remember, but can't think of who she played. #DoctorWho

Timeline cleanse.

Happy Weekend!

The regime in the USA is echoing some history, backwards, trying to make sure it wins every election. But it hasn't fared well with elections over the past year. Did you see that vote swing in Texas? How did that happen? open.substack.com/pub/bonniehu...

Instant block for me. @juliemoonthego.bsky.social here's one to add to your list. It's self proclaimed AI crypto trash.

I loved the Netflix show, Travelers, and am still holding hope for it being re-started with a different team. @cemurphy.bsky.social I finally had time to search for fanfic; this story addresses our pondering about MacClaren, 9/11, and what might have been. #Travelers #GrantMacClaren3468

I think it's appropriate to share these groundhog pics today. 😊🐾 Spotted in Autumn 2016 at a park in Hyde Park, New York, US. #GroundhogDay

Taking a mental health day (AKA called in sick/vertigo). I just could not face going in & dealing with the public today. I'll regret it next pay, but I'll deal with that then. It's not completely a lie; my head IS swirling a bit & I certainly didn't get enough sleep. I also didn't want to push it.

#SundayPixDistance A beautiful tree in full Autumn color makes this Distance in both Time (this was taken a few years ago) and Space, as it was far from where I stood. Hyde Park, New York, US #Nature #Autumn #Trees

#SundayPixDistance Pipsqueak, my Mini Cooper, with Rockport, Texas, across the bay. #MiniCooper

#SundayPixDistance I don't recall which river that is, or where exactly we were when I took this, but I think it might have been over Pennsylvania.

Finally, a piece of good- no make that GREAT- news!! 💙💙

Here's your catfish for the day. 😅

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

Engild, but Novalunosis is a close second.

New scam to me. I haven't seen this type before.

An absolutely balmy 57F today! So much more pleasant than the 27F the day started out with, wouldn't you say? 🌞 #ATX #AustinTX #Winter #Weather

Space exploration is not a tourist trip no matter how it looks when billionaires play at it. This date, 28 January, is now a 40 year pain that does not go away. I hope returning to the moon will go well, but I will guard my heart the whole time. open.substack.com/pub/bonniehu...

I can't make it (boo hiss🥺) but maybe others can? #ATX #AustinTX #Books 📚💙

Yet again, Anne Louise Avery articulates the deepest, and oldest, feelings. I am joining Old Wolf in reading the names of Those Who Must Be Remembered. 💔

Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is stay soft in a world that keeps asking you to harden up. Pay attention to what steadies you — a quiet moment, a voice, a song — and keep those things close. They ain’t escapes; they’re anchors.

Looks like about 1.5 inches of ice was on Pipsqueak's hood, but the sun has done a good job of clearing most of it off, & I took care of the rest. Her door is frozen shut & I'm not forcing it open. The black pavement is just wet, but everything else is icy & slippery. I should be able to get out

Such wonderful shots of The Big Apple. Greg captures the heart of the city so well. 🍎

Investigating the joys of the heater. It took her most of the day to wander over & look at the noisy thing, but she hasn't moved away from it since then. 😅 #ATX #AustinTX #Cat #CatLife #EmergencyCat

She's a warm kitty. Not pleased with having been disturbed by my need for a photo of her, but overall warm & satisfied. #Cat #CatLife #EmergencyCat #ATX #AustinTX #Winter

Last night was noisy with sleet/hail/icy rain & wind. This morning, the path is fully covered with the frozen stuff; there's been ppl walking their dogs, but leaving no footprints. The sun is breaking out, which is lovely to see. Still cold at 18F, though. #ATX #AustinTX #Winter #Weather

I've got a candle in the window now. I hope you'll join in, no matter the time. RIP Alex Pretti.

Cold days make snuggling into the hot laundry all the more important, says Pidgeon. #ProofOfCat #Cat #CatLife #EmergencyCat

I think it's getting thicker. I took this at 1:30 Central, and zoomed in on the tree because I like the shape of it. It's located at the far end of the lot. It's warm, nearly 70F, which is so odd considering the frigid temps we'll see starting tomorrow. #ATX #AustinTX #Nature #Photography #Fog

An amazingly thick fog today. #Nature #Photography #ATX #AustinTX

Rapidly changing colors as the sun rises behind the skyline of lower Manhattan and One World Trade Center in New York City, Friday morning #newyorkcity #nyc #newyork #sunrise

Another soggy, foggy morning here deserves another rain photo from a previous day. #Nature #Photography #ATX #AustinTX #Raindrop

Austin is right on the edge of the really nasty stuff and it can go either way. I'm as ready as I can be. My biggest concern now is driving home Fri night; I'm hoping the roads will still be clear at 6pm. Guess I'll find out soon enough. #ATX #AustinTX #Winter

Do not confuse power for strength. The so-called powerless may have more strength, more courage, and more honor than any autocrat. A true warrior sees to it that the despot will come to fear that strength, and their power will falter before it.

This evening's sunset and moon rise. #Sunset #Moonrise #Nature #Photography #ATX #AustinTX

Getting pretty damn close to reaching this point...

A damp & foggy morning here reminded me of these photos I'd taken on another foggy, rainy day. #Nature #Photography #ATX #AustinTX

An older photo I took of grackles at the beginning of sunset. #Nature #Photography #Photo

Dance like a weasel Wednesday! A fun, new-to-me song, and I'm grabbing my cat to join the weasels in dancing to it! #WeaselWednesday

Remember, kids: we are having AI forced on us by people who don’t believe in autonomy or consent. AI is rape culture, not just in the CSAM machine sense but also because we are not seen as worthy of respect or consideration by the capitalists destroying our world. Do not comply. Call it out.

This is making me very uncomfortable and giving me flashbacks to the storm in 2021. No water/heat for 10 days, freezing temps, trees crashing down under the weight of the accumulated ice.

#SundayPixBirthday This will be my only SundayPix share. That's my mom and today, Jan 18, would have been her 84th birthday, but metastatisized lung cancer killed her 2 years ago. Happy Birthday, Mom. I miss you. #FuckCancer

Rules are rules, right? ☔

The start of yet another fantastic series by Jennifer Estep. Grab this while you can!

I'm cracking into the emergency support box of Girl Scout Thin Mints. Feeling rather shaken at the moment.

Wow. "Google" called & left a vm, then called back a moment later. Out of curiosity 🙄 I answered, but said nothing until a male introduced himself & asked if I approved a change in phone # for my Coinbase crypto acct (don't have one). I asked him to repeat it (lots of static on the line) and

Dogs are something else! 🤣
