There is a scene in THE PITT where a neurodivergent doctor is given the task of picking hundreds of pieces of gravel out of a road rash patient and the way she lights up with sheer joy at the prospect resonated with me.

D…did they carve the turkey with a Glock?

Bong Joon Ho hit me up for the squad you legend deadline.com/2025/11/bong...

Have also started watching Plur1bus and can confirm.

Remembering years ago after Abu Ghraib came to light, a certain Senator from Delaware ripping into the Bush administration for endangering our troops — and specifically the life of people like his son, Beau — by violating the Geneva Conventions.

Two of my favorite apps that respect my data and my control of it are on sale today. They almost never are. - Plan To Eat Recipe clipper. Tons of features. - Scrivener The only way I can keep track of my stories. Replaced Word for me for writing.

Finished eldest’s keyhole scarf. I love keyhole scarves. Moving on to second born’s.

I capped off my day by bingeing five episodes of THE PITT because you see I am an optimist

Pies are in. Stuffing is soaking. Mushrooms are cleaned. Green beans are snapped. First load of dishes are in the wash. Shower, then back for Act II.

"Happy Thanksgiving, kids! Enjoy your...bananas, mistletoe sprigs and turkey we snagged from a vault ten miles outside of New Vegas!"

There is a bug in JQL that if you're searching on a field like labels or assignee against a specific value, it will stop returning items with NULL/EMPTY values. It's been there forever. I have no fucking idea why it's never been fixed.

Grenfell, but Grenfell if it had set *an entire block* on fire.

I once built a 30+ room forest hunting ground in DragonRealms and by the fifth room I realized my mistake as you can only say “you are standing amidst magnificent oaks and aspens, light streaming through the boughs” so many times in a text-based RPG.

Has anyone written a fantasy series where all the magic users are a bunch of big dumb idiots but because they can, like, blow you up with a spell, they have all the power? and there’s a bunch of relatively intelligent non-powered types thinking “wow THESE are the mages? These big dumb idiots?”

Started a non-chaos scarf for eldest and then my cat decided to be a stereotype.

JFC it’s the ragebait administration I swear

She is babby.

Getting ready.

Final PT session tomorrow. My back is better, but my wrists are still unhappy. I’m at a loss. I did move my CPAP hose so that it no longer drapes over me. Comes up the back of the bed now. I think it’s helping? But let me not be the last to say: aging sucks.

i’m not crying you’re crying xkcd: Fifteen Years

The Chaos Scarf Grows.

d-do Jace and Vraska count?

Aaaand caught. Also! It appears Morgan is transitioning? Man, news outlets are failing me with pronouns. Fuck a duck.

lol she was smarter than Bolsonaro

Prep. Except the tacos. Those are tacos.

Something I did not know until I moved into the area: when the weather is right and the sun is rising, Tahoma will cast a shadow across the cloud cover. It’s rad.

Bad at college. Was lonely and missed my D&D group. Tried an online game. Got hooked. Couldn’t pay for it because it was stupid expensive and then thought, “What if I worked for them?”

Sharing the deep knowledge (baking sheets are better, or hotel pans with lids if you've got them). Also heed that safety stacking chart: raw meat & poultry on the bottom, cooked foods & veggies up top! Don't give anyone salmonella for Christmas.

Ever since I saw one of the Green brothers do it I can’t stop playing Connections in “hard mode” (getting purple first).

Boba wants to play with the crows soooo bad.

Hello from my thyroid.

Wondering if Gerard Way woke up this morning and regretted writing the lyric “Fuck like a Kennedy”.

Listen, for ??? years I have managed to never once watch “2 girls 1 cup” so don’t think I’m going to start breaking my brain with the Nuzzi/RFK sextcapades. Also as someone who was a text-based RPG GM and exposed to ALL the player logs: nothing can shock me. Nothing.

Hell yeah.

Finally found the torch trigger for my butane canisters and ha ha ha ha oh god this thing is fucking dangerous.

Excuse to post a classic?

This place has a rose lassi and I’ve never seen or had one before but I am in looooove.

DEV LEAD: So I’m thinking a Friday deploy — ME:

All my love to my trans friends and colleagues, here and gone, on this day of remembrance.

I am laughing too hard at this.

Added rice cake ovalettes (tteokguk tteok) to our turkey soup tonight. Om nom nom.

MUPPET KNIVES OUT

NATIVE! PLANT! SAAAAAAAAAAAAAALE

ME: (rests hand gently on ground) ME: (whispering) It's coming. LEADS: What is? ME: (pulls up PTO calendar) The OOOcalypse.

cloudflare's on-duty IT staff bangs on the doors which I have padlocked from the inside as I calmly break open lava lamp after lava lamp and drink the contents

I love this Bluey episode.

Hello! today is 🎂🎉MY BIRTHDAY! 🎉🎂 For my birthday, plz read what is up of my webcomic/signal-boost this skeet? It would mean a lot to me! Only 50 pages so far. It hasn't updated in ages, but I'm still working on it. Updates will resume when the backlog reaches 50 pages. blikada.com?pg=1#showComic

RIP to a games industry pioneer and legend, Rebecca Heineman (@burgerbecky.bsky.social) If your unfamiliar, look her up. Her career is like the story of videogames itself.

I for one think a Blue’s Clues Clue(do) board game would be a huge success. “Mr. Salt…in the Thinking Chair…with the Notebook.”
