Give yourselves grace, and your enemies nothing.
I personally plan to feel bad about a lot of things today, but not that I hoped and believed in a different outcome.
Gosh, I'm sorry, I'll get some sawdust.
So good, and you can chase it with one of my favorite poems of all time, I think. millay.org/2022/04/27/a...

📢 Chicago, your monthly siren test is today at 10AM! Remember, it's just a test, not a cause for alarm. Stay safe, folks!
Good morning! I like to vote on the day (and I'm lucky to live in a place where that isn't difficult), so I got up early and did just that!
I think I've got a few years on you, but I still wanted the hair tinsel!
No! Maybe I'll make it a New Year's project.
This is how I feel every time I see a Lamington.
500k people in Washoe and they're all so tired.

Enjoy a lovely afternoon by a pond under a blue sky with puffy white clouds. A Western Grebe is peeping, a hidden Sora is laughing, and American Coots are honking
Neighbors doing simple, effective work here.
I also like Smarties and hate a Necco! They're texturally distinct to me in a way that makes all the difference!
Bit-O-Honeys rock socks. And those peanut butter taffies with the dusty pb center? Love those, too.

I also like black licorice.
A fine little threadlet!
A Halloween story from Bernd Heinrich's book Mind of the Raven:

According to Heinrich, there are many accounts of hikers hearing loud raven calls, turning around, and seeing a bear.

The hikers often feel grateful to the raven for warning them of the bear's presence.

I've really liked the spin you've put on them - particular to you, but makes sense as far as their usual interpretations. Plus the colors are choice.
Brandon's Tarotober drawings have been so good.
Happy Halloween, it's my last Tarotober and I drew a Reverse Page of Pentacles. The Reverse page can represent decay so I went with the imagery of a writhing mass of inky blackness and teeth to close out the month. I really enjoyed these Tarot card drawings and I hope you did as well
Do you remember
The 41st night of Octember?
The Rubik's cube is a nice touch.
It's Nevada Day! The Silver State awaits you!
@pdynowski.bsky.social described this exact series (ROX-WSOX) as "pervert baseball for baseball perverts".
So here’s the problem - baseball goes out on a high with the World Series and it makes you miss it. They should follow that up with a three game series between the White Sox and the Rockies so we can say we’ve had our fill
This is also a big part of what makes Taskmaster sing. Editors! Let them help you!
I feel like it’s worth acknowledging that a huge part of what makes Billy on the Street funny is that whoever edits it has an exquisite sense of timing.
A Triscuit, a slice of extra-sharp Tillamook, a couple-three dots of El Yucateco habanera verde: perfect nibbles.
