I was talking to my 10 year old niece, and ended up showing her my collection of nail polish.

I recently decided to re-organize my collection and eliminate some colors I knew l'd never use. In doing so, I gave 30 colors to a friend, and I'm planning to give away the rest of my destash this week.

Oregon Dems still have it in the platform. (This is the current draft, still being edited, but it was in the 2023 platform as well).

The Oregon Alliance to Prevent Suicide is looking for youth and young adults to participate in a survey. Please share this link with others you know who are ages 18-25. There are opportunities to participate in paid focus groups for those who complete the survey and opt-in.

In the 2025 Legislative Session, Democrats chose to take funding away from childcare and supplemental food resources, and then complained bitterly about being held accountable for it. One such measure of accountability was a truck that displayed a message them not to forget our kids.

It's races like these where I always wonder what STAR voting would lead to. I suspect that many Dems feel that they could live with 2-3 of these candidates, but that's not reflected in first-past-the-post elections (for more, visit @starvoting.bsky.social).

This is wild and true, and I wish more people knew it.

I’m sitting on the living room floor, crying about the sweetest client gift I just opened. I didn’t know what it was from the outside of the box, so I took photos and once I realized what it was, the emotion caught me. #StillIRise

Looked over to see my youngest and her favorite cat snuggling and watching My Little Pony together. It feels good to see them have a life of ease and joy.

How many people does it take to escort one young man with a significant back injury? Are you for real?

Not even remotely the same and this is part of the problem. If you don’t understand how these things work, it makes people more likely to dismiss your critique.

It’s literally not. What about this is so hard to understand?

I love this! Our orange boy is also enormous! 22lbs of very athletic, tall cat. I’m 6’2” and when he stretches up to me, he comes up past my waist. 😬 (pictured here with our oldest son and another cat).

Tell me your favorite book quote; bonus points if the book is more than 10 years old. Here’s mine:

Hallelujah! (It’s not a perfect system since it’s a sectional and we move the pieces around fairly often. You could do larger sections if you wanted to seal off more of the open spots).

Amazon employees around the world are going on strike on Black Friday. If you can help it, don’t buy from Amazon through the end of the month. Workers deserve a living wage and robust benefits, and Amazon can afford those costs.

@scalzi.com your cat looks very similar to my Ashi.

I’ve always been function over form, but the aesthetics feel good tonight… though I wish I was finishing the curriculum I’d planned for a Harris win. This will have to do.

My original baby is here to snuggle while the human babies are off at school. Love this little beast so much.
