Hey @drfarls.bsky.social, what’s the ship behind him in this photo, and why do I feel like it’s Bismarck?

I took one of my favorite photographs inside this building, of the “infinite” spiral staircase that seems to defy belief.

Yeah, this was the heat index this afternoon inside the welding shop. Hydrate and take frequent breaks this week fellow Baltimoreans.

Looks like that storm had a little punch to it. From a friend in Dundalk.

Our @greedyreads.bsky.social haul for Indie Bookstore Day. Delightfully packed today, loved to see so many people in the store.

Hey @washingtonpost.com, we are waaaay too far into this firing spree to be calling these instances “mistakes.” All of this is going according to plan.

Oh, and I made a cheesecake.

There’s a whole lot of dumb going on right now but declaring an “energy emergency” is absolute idiocy.

I have one with the little magnets sewn in, so those help it stick to the hood. The other two corners get shut into the front doors.

We finally went to Topside last night for dinner, and it was delightful. The view was great!

Made a banger of a cheesecake this weekend for Friendsgiving. Just a perfect vanilla cheesecake, but topped with an apple cider caramel sauce.

If you see this, post a bird.

This is a little blue heron, and my favorite modern dinosaur. Those colors! And the juveniles are stark white, which is nifty.

It can babysit your kid and walk your dog.

Our fabrication shop is located right next to the port, and even though the strike is on we’re still seeing some interesting things come through.
