Pretty sure this was the best thing I made all year. Well this and the MILFs for mother earth zine.
I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.

Today’s high: 73
Tomorrow’s expected high: 27
Tuesday’s expected low: 17

That’s just wrong!

This was sent to me last year by Charlie (aged 9), but it’s far too good not to share again.
Please congratulate him on this brilliant picture of Steve... it still makes me smile every time.

To be clear, it needs more people willing to save their neighbors regardless of their differences. Not more shootings.
Ok, I have to say this. Been catching up on the shooting in Australia. If you’re not aware, two gunmen opened fire on a Jewish Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach. A Muslim bystander rushed in and disarmed one of the shooters saving an unknown number of Jewish lives.

The world needs more of this.

I am ashamed. Louisville celebrates WorldFest every year as a highlight of our civic calendar, welcoming and celebrating new citizens as a highlight of the event. We owe our neighbors, friends, family members, colleagues, teachers, health care workers, students... so, so much better than this.
Immigrants who had received letters inviting them to a citizenship ceremony in downtown Louisville were turned away at the door Thursday. All are from countries deemed “high-risk” by President Donald Trump. From @lpm.org's Roberto Roldan

Scam alert: Someone is pretending to be me and reaching out to authors. The pitch contains enough specific details that it sounds plausible at first.

This is not me! I'm so sorry to anyone who has fallen for this.

Well the house of Theseus has another leak. If you are in the Seattle area and know of a really excellent contractor or handyman who can come take a look, please let me know

Come on Apple, really? Your last “update” broke my AppleTV again! AppleTV no longer turns on/off my TV, and no longer controls the volume on my receiver. Why does this stop working with every other update? One update breakers it, the next fixes it, the next breaks it again, and so on. 🙏 fix.

Indie book authors, you have a whole day to yourself tomorrow. Musicians, crafters, artists and others, your day is Wednesday!

In fact, just offer all the options up front alcoholic and non-alcoholic alike.
Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.
