We'll never defeat our real enemies while we're at each other's throats. Even villains believe they're righteous.
For the last couple of days, we've had a resident bird take refuge in the eaves of our front porch. Haven't been able to quite identify it, it we're glad it finds us to be safe hosts on these cold winter nights.

It seems every couple of weeks, some critter comes to visit me outside my warehouse door. This week was a rat snake I named Speedbump, cuz that's what he almost was. He was full of sass and not interested in my bullshit. (Got my first snake bite!)

Dammit... They say don't judge a book by its cover and I found that true of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - The Dog of War. Everything suggested I'd get a corgi Borg, but that NEVER happens. In fact, NO dog Borg as the cover suggests. 😡

Got to meet Lenore Zann this past weekend! Rogue is my main in the Vs. games, so her voice has a permanent residence in my ears. Hard to see, but she signed the controls of my MvsC2 arcade cab, "Good night, Suga! Lenore Zann aka Rogue". 🤩

Though, unlike most beach towns we've been to like Myrtle Beach, we expected a high MAGA presence, but were impressed how minimized that is in that area. More often we'd see things like this...

Had a hell of a time vacationing at Dollywood last week! Easily in our top 5 theme parks we've visited. The surrounding area was like the mountain towns we've already visited mixed with the tourist traps of Myrtle Beach.

I think I only got Steam cuz it was required to install Portal, but I guess World of Goo was the killer app that got me to finally buy something.
Post a screenshot of your first 5 Steam purchases and let Bluesky judge you.

My eagle-eyed daughter spotted this little troublemaker sleeping along our neighborhood trail. I didn't want any dogs or small children to stumble upon it, so I poked it with my kid's herping hook until it found better cover.

Pics are coming out of the upcoming Star Trek attraction at Universal Studios Hollywood. I have a few of my own that I saw of it being constructed.
I do hope this is a semipermanent feature so that I may be able to see it all next time I'm out there.

We had a phenomenal trip out to Southern California this past week! Spent time with family and friends, toured movie studios and my old haunts, and had a great time in some tide pools...
These are a few personal highlights of our time there.

Rescued this little idiot from being stepped on. It decided to take a nap on the sidewalk along our greenway. (Harmless baby water snake.)

I was browsing around our local European grocery yesterday and thanks to your post, this caught my eye. We tried it out and...we have no idea how to describe the flavor.
