Beaverton is cooking today:

noooooooooooooooooooooooo

I would recommend watching the speech in full. “If you are not invited to the table, you are on the menu” - Carney tells it like it is. Powerful stuff.

Thrilled to see @jenreadsromance.bsky.social talking all the sense in the Guardian today! www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Fleurs des villes!! This year's theme is wonders of the world.

Shovelling snow found to be number 1 cause of Canadians muttering ‘fuck this fucking shit’ over and over

Hail, again. :(

I was just looking on GR at the reviews for a romance novel about a contract killer, as one does, and not one but several reviews refer to him as "a contract unaliver" so if you need me I'm the one in the park banging my head repeatedly against a tree.

I think if you're a Transformers fan and you're angry at the DWJ sketch of Optimus defending innocent people from ICE then you're not actually a Transformers fan and you're a bootlicking dipshit.

Art by Daniel Warren Johnson. From his Insta.

Sometimes being an adult is ridiculous: "ooh, I totally love all of these off-white fabric swatches, and yes they're all completely different"

Oooh! Transformers Kickstarter is on the way!!

You couldn't publish this today. You'd have to cloak it under several layers of metaphor.

When your man indulges your nerdiness :) 😀 #legosoundwave #transformers #datenightfornerds

If you tell me that this is a distraction from the Epstein files I will block you into last week. For fuck's sake, people in other countries are actual human beings who do not deserve to be murdered. They are deserving of our attention and care. Their violent deaths should not be on our hands.

What actual or imminent attack what

Jesus Fucking Christ.

While most of the messages I received during my online dating phase were deeply questionable, occasionally there was something worthwhile. Tomorrow will be 11 years with this accountant! 🥰 Time flies when your man is hot and good with spreadsheets. ❤️

Ex-Meta chief AI scientist Yann LeCun has Lunch with the FT and in one of those instances so rare that you know he didn't sign an NDA, says exactly why as.ft.com/r/e503690d-8...

Going through my old facebook memories is *wild*. (also: wow, I had forgotten what a nightmare online dating was!)

The cutenessssssss 😍🤩😍 #transformers #jazzwave

This might be the cutest thing I've bought all year, omg! 😍😍 #transformersgogo

The thing I wanted to get done before Christmas is now almost done! #huzzah

Like, apparently, everyone else in this frigid city, we decided to visit the tropical biome tonight.

Another day, another reddit poster being flabbergasted that there are women who like Transformers. *sigh*

Christmas with family = survived.

#starscream #transformers #skywarp #thundercracker #buster #stargazing comic cover redraw, a classic. happy christmas!

The act of writing is *thinking*. If you do not allow yourself to think thoughts that feel wrong, you will never get a feel for what feels *right*.

Annual tradition 😀

One more thing to do before work is wrapped up for the year...

Hey I know this is probably obvious but super duper don't use AI marketing tools to attempt to sell or pitch books, are you out of your mind? They're *books.* you sell them to people who *read.* have some respect for their ability to spot slop.

These early Transformers comics are wild.

When you need to take the cat to the vet but you can't get him in the box.

Oh joy...

Freezing rain today :-(

The funny thing is there are absolutely traits skills and characteristics that financially super successful people have and they are: money being born into money knowing other people with money

My little man! ♥️

stages of loving your blorbo: - hating something canon about him - reimagining it so it's explained - loving him - loving him so much you defend him to everyone - absorbing him into your soul - supporting his rights and wrongs - putting him in situations - putting him through the horrors

my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

I live in a city full of creative people and nerds, and sometimes it helps make up for the truly atrocious weather.

My best find of the day combines my love of shiny things with my love of Transformers - beaded Jazz! (The girl who made him was like, "oh, do you like Transformers?" and when I said yes proceeded to pull out a whole book with TF designs 😄)

I think if there's one truism about the women in this city as a whole, it is that regardless of race/ethnicity/occupation/class/creed, we're all a little overly obsessed with beaded earrings. (~doing some damage to my bank account currently~)

And next up, the Indigenous Women Artists' Collective Market! It's being held in a really beautiful heritage building 😍

As one does in December, we headed to another artists open house this weekend. I really love these paintings on birch bark!

:(

I think it’s also true that loneliness among women has historically been treated as an individual problem, while loneliness among men is treated as a societal problem. That, in turn, comes from an assumption that women are supposed to earn the company of others while men are entitled to it.

Today was so long. So very long. It is 6pm and I might just go to bed.

Happy 40th anniversary to these drama queens, Love, Me and my handsome colourist @dcjosh.bsky.social (Hit us up If you want us on YOUR comic cover) #Transformers
