Yup. I'm also completely unsurprised none of them did. Our industry's gender imbalance is just normalized & accepted. 🧐

As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store.

Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.

One of our neighbors, who always has a yard PACKED with Christmas lightups, has his yard set up already! We stopped by for a photo & he came out to say hi, since he knows Tallie.

Such a fun Thanksgiving Eve chat with a neighbor- we thanked him for making our evening walk so bright & fun 💜

My senior year at Wellesley, my coop decided we should cook thanksgiving. My bestie bought an aluminum roasting pan & a plastic oven bag along with the turkey. Mostly because it was at the store & we had no idea anyway how to cook one (oh, how I wish food blogs had been a thing in the late 90s!)
yes, hello, I would like to place an order for everyone’s funniest stories of holiday food-related family grudges / drama / chaotic incidents / lore

I feel like we need this

When you get a break from the cone for a walk
November 23, 2025 at 7:48 PM
So we were pretty sure this cone would contain her. NOPE.

Woke up this morning & she had puked in the crate & then eaten the puke. 🤢 How? There is like 3 inches between the end of her nose and the edge of the cone!

(Apparently she can get 3 inches of ruff compression if she tries??? 🤨)
Very large ruff. Very large cone. Very smol doggo under there. Wish us luck tonight.

unrepentant doggo at the vet's office where we tried many sizes on her in an attempt to find one that she couldn't just shove into her fur ruff & eat kibbles off the floor in

Because it's just a great morning over here, Tallie got her cone off overnight (How??!?) and spent the night licking the stitches on her paw. 😭
She is totally unrepentant. Look at this, snoozling away with no cares while I text photos to the vet and freak out.

WA State lawyer things: Hotel Murano in Tacoma keeps putting ads in my Insta stories. 😖😱

Yes, I would like to be reminded of the 2 most stressful nights of my life, thx.😣

Last year I read 101 books. I'm at 75 with 6 weeks left to 2025 right now. 🫣

(still doing way better than the years in law school, when I averaged about 30. Obviously not counting casebooks/study guides/other boring school reading.)

Cosmos! found on our drizzly walk this afternoon.

google photo memories just gave me this and I completely don't remember what was going on here but it's too good not to share

Poor Tallie had to have follow up surgery on her paw after the one we had in June. She's definitely on the good drugs but send her all the ear scritches & good luck 💙

SEATTLE!!!

We’ve now taken the lead by 91 votes! 🤯 This thing is certainly not over! Over 1,000 ballots have been challenged, so if you haven’t tracked your ballot yet get on it! Our trusty volunteers have been working hard to "cure" ballots so they count! We're so close!

What’s that? We haven’t had a Tallie’s Butt automated album update in a while? Well we do now and it’s a good one. I present to you… the front half of Tallie, dropped into the “Tallie’s Butt” smart label album by our AI overlords

So this will sound silly, but Tallie *never* causes trouble at home. She is an angel. Tonight, we got home from nosework training, and she found this piece of paper that had been used as padding in a package and decided to.... steal and shred it?! I was laughing too much to yell at her.

Why are ICE agents being paid during the shutdown, but not air traffic controllers? 🤨

We're officially at the point in November where my raincoats (please note plural here!) aren't drying out before the next dog walk and I have to decide which is least damp and annoying to put on. ☔
Have a damp Tallie-as-a-puppy-her-first-Seattle-November while we get drenched again:

Says assault requires a “reasonable fear of immediate bodily harm,” and none exists given agent’s long-sleeve shirt, long pants, boots, gloves and ballistic vest that is created to “keep you safe from military rifle fire” and so is “definitely going to keep you safe from a sandwich.”
