Views my own, not my employer’s.
Counterpoint: maybe Watson was a misogynist and a racist from the start and shouldn’t have had any sterling reputation to begin with. This is him, in his own words, on Rosalind Franklin.

(Robert recalled an even worse story involving Franklin, which I haven’t read for myself.)

Bonus: Husband and dog as dinosaurs.

The raccoon is in a slasher film.

I saw someone posting about NYC children having a “weak” Halloween, and this is my three block radius in spontaneous (bad) pictures.

Yes, there’s a shipwreck with a candy chute around the corner from me and the boulder of doom from Indiana Jones one block away.

My phone decided to show me this TBT picture of Juniper, which I didn’t even remember, and I just can’t with the cuteness! Here’s the timeline cleanse you didn’t know you needed.

From downstairs, I could hear my dog was distraught. Inconsolable whining. Either she had got herself stuck behind a closed door somehow, or a ball had rolled beyond her reach where only a human could get it.

The ball(s): see below.

At least she won’t ever fall down the stairs, I guess?

Juniper went to the vet today and was told she should lose 5 pounds. She disagrees and is demanding that I post thirst traps.

We had a good run until the post-dinner dog walk, when the booms started. Now:

Without downloading any new pics, where are you at mentally?

Thank you for this public service that just reminded me to take my meds. Juniper says hi back.

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate from the plague house! Only Juniper has escaped COVID so far.

Saw a thread re art pieces that moved you. Technical difficulties later, you all get this as one-off responses.

I mostly feel rage and fatigue, so you won’t get here the de Chirichos and Chagalls and Khnopffs that draw me just with aesthetics.

Begin with Carmen Winant’s The Last Safe Abortion

One of our friends has a dog who famously eats croissants to the delight of his Insta followers (follow bokchoy!)

Well, Juniper just had her first baguette. Our doggie loves la boulange, too.
