I don't have a feeling about baseball but Los Angeles has been through hell this year and something that makes this city feel good is good

There's something funny (maybe terrible?) about the fact that the only way to catch live, non-subscription updates of this baseball game is to listen to AM radio.

Every church should be doing this, and if your church isn’t, you’re at the wrong church.

Short story day!
Posting a WIP that I have change notes for, so you can see what's different later (and maybe we spot the same things?).

Happy Halloween!

Another wonderful Halloween spent in Canada, full of costumes, candy, and the perfect execution of our friends' haunted house!

🎃Happy Halloween!🎃
Annual Family Halloween Card Artwork, 2025 Edition

Digital drawing depicting three people gathered around a bubbling cauldron of green witches brew and bones for a Halloween scene. From left to right: a man dressed as a black cat looking reluctant in costume choice, a woman dressed as a witch and amused with the man's discomfort, and a white dog made to look like a sabbath goat and staring longingly at the bones in the cauldron. Decorative text as the bottom wishes you a Happy Halloween.

KAMALA HARRIS: "It is never satisfying to say we've gotta be incremental - and I'm not advocating incrementalism - but until we win back majorities in the Senate and the House and take the White House, that may just be where we are."

No disrespect, but this is my favourite way to follow baseball: by checking the scores the next day.

Fall photoshoots with Wally are very important to me.

I NEED more creators, ie on youtube or otherwise, to be explicitly direct about not using AI.

There's a few channels on youtube I watch where they say in the description or even on-screen that they do not use AI, and right now, unless I see that, I can't be sure

they're everywhere, and it's important that people see how this shit lurks constantly all around you in the most innocuous places.

your friends, your favourite youtube channel that's as innocent as possible, that millions of kids watch. People you think are totally fine might have this in them

#DESTINYTOBER25: Bright

@evetheguardian.bsky.social keeps trying to use her Solar Light to sear steaks. The resulting steaks are burned black carbon - indistinguishable from charcoal - on the outside, and not only raw, but cold on the inside. No, thanks!

"Would you like to try a steak seared with Solar Light?"

"...no, thank you."

Our cat, Laz, is so sensitive to our absence.

Hasn't thrown up in nearly 2 months, but 2 days since starting our vacation, he's gotten sick again.

My mother-in-law was able to give him some medicine and he has, so far, kept it down.

Really hoping he recovers. It tears at our heart.

If you enjoy Ursula Le Guin and Octavia Butler, I think you’d also enjoy Sheri S Tepper. I’ve been thinking a lot about The Gate to Women’s Country in the current *gestures at everything* but all her books are great
