Context for the usual display name. I have laughed at this every time I've seen it for the last year.
A post from "Chubblenauts and other examples of Arctic Excellence". It is a photo of baby Moo Deng yelling while a keeper is picking her up.  The post text reads:

UNHAND ME at ONCE, I am GRUNTILLICUS, I saw the WORLD BORN in the FIRES of the GODFORGE, I cast the DUST which became YOUR BREATH, I would like a SMALL APPLE

Ooh, even easier! I use the Kindle app on my Android phone, so hadn't considered that.

Cackling while showing this post to my friends is how I learned some of them didn't know about the Bass Pro Shops pyramid.

I think Amazon disabled the sideloading files via USB option (or maybe that was just for being able to download your Kindle files), but epub/PDF "Send to Kindle" via the website drag and drop or via email works a treat.

Something good actually came out of my reading that dumb skeet by Sally Jenkins: I have a new book waiting for me in my ereader as soon as I finish my current one.

Evergreen at this point.

I went to the Mason District Art Festival today and cursed the timing of it, falling between paydays as it did. I saw this masked wolf in person and desperately wanted to take it and one of the jackalopes home.

Once upon a time, I was married to someone who thought I was not as beautiful as I really was. I am now with someone who thinks I’m much more beautiful than I really am. I highly recommend the latter.

This isn't breaking news, but I'd honestly forgotten they were leaning quite this heavily into the dark side until I saw this post, so I'm happy to be reminded of it.

Exec3: What if, while we targeted our advertising towards lanyard-class staffers with an occasionally overdeveloped sense of noblesse oblige, we argued that the NLRB was unconstitutional?

Exec1 and Exec2: Okay, now it's starting to get warm in here.

Me not paying attention in the other room, noticing the programmed lights were turning themselves off: "It can't actually be midnight, I can hear that the baseball game is still...oh."

I'm sorry for your loss.

I'm working on remembering when it's time to go to bed without the cat wandering through the office at 10:30 PM to yell at me that it's just about that time.
starlightatsea.bsky.social
The vet just called to say that our cat's ashes are ready, and my husband had the call on speaker in the other room

Me: "Did she just end the call with 'Have a nice day otherwise'?"
Husband: "She did."
Me: "I guess that's reasonable. 'Your pet's remains are here, have a good day!' ain't great."

You've been at a job long enough to know a decent colleague to chat with.

The more you get to know them, the more they share. What's fact or fiction? You don't know, but you listen.

Then there's one story that's so over the top—a bona fide lie. But then, a photo appears.
A red Ford Pinto hatchback angles across a narrow gravel forest service road, a blue enduro motorcycle on a rear hitch carrier. Tall firs frame the view. Beyond them, a towering ash cloud from a pyroclastic density flow billows skyward. Photo by Richard Kent Lasher, May 18, 1980.
