Is there a reason why the Constitution is missing from the White House website, do you think?

The Moon: Mystery and creativity, but also potentially a place of anxiety if we stop trusting ourselves to see the beacon rather than the darkness in which it dwells. Mother of Cups: Intuition and healing, fierce family, beauty. Temperance: moderation and co-operation needed.

On 2nd December, I'll have the first proper break from work since last Christmas. And I'm going to re-read Area X before diving into @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social 's latest.

One of my managers kept accusing me of having the same mug as him, so I looked up his mug and promptly spat out my perfect temperature tea upon seeing the price. This Q&A, however, was amazing.

This is not Alfred Bester's best book. It's problematically misogynistic. But I have proprioceptive synaesthesia, and nobody else has ever attempted something that made me feel less like an absolute outlier. It made me want to be a writer who represents outlier perspectives. I see you. I *am* you.

Here's a photo from five years ago, in north Drumtochty. Today, other than the biting wind, it could've been late spring. The high was in the mid teens. There's a difference between weather and climate, but it just doesn't feel right for it to be so warm so early in the year. #DogsOfScotland #husky

Dogface is on her second day of morning panic attacks. It happens sometimes. Normally the trigger is sound. Took 2 hours to get her to settle. She was fine on her morning walk. Just one of the things you sign up for when you get a rescue. Another day of this and it will be off to the vet. #husky

Always a special feeling when a contributor copy turns up. Many thanks to @jenniferbrozek.bsky.social and @catrambo.bsky.social for sending #TheReinventedDetective all the way to Scotland!

When I'm running from zombies in this heat, I'd rather the storm were above me. #ZombiesRun

This is said derpwolf. She enjoys three breakfasts most days, and dinner is always an event involving at least four courses.
