An immigration judge just ruled that, because these two 5-year-olds have "insufficient assets and insufficient property," they can't be released, according to their lawyer. I can't find the words.

Went back out about an hour ago. Just before I went out, I spotted a red-tailed hawk butt down in a snow pile, only to see it fly away with a huge squirrel in its talons.
Third shoveling complete. Easily another 3”.
Did my first shovel around 8 this morning. Probably had 3-4”. Did my second round 1.5 hours later and it had already showed another 2-3”.

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics
Let us all have the courage displayed by the residents of Minneapolis.

I cannot recommend enough getting a snow shovel like this to protect your back and make quicker work of the job:

FINALLY. Though, @amandasmith.bsky.social, it appears we will be haunted yet again by Ed Baldwin.

Can and have, but also, "I put the water from my hotel sink into my water bottle" is for sure something Redman would have rapped on Lyricist Lounge 2.
just answer the question. don't offer any judgment: would you put the water from your hotel sink into your water bottle?

I love Indiana’s run also because it’s washing Bob Knight out of my memory.

If Indiana wins it all they should get to play OSU again the following week just as a lil treat.

I did flipbooks for all of the Animorphs covers I did, but they appeared in black and white and very small, so I am posting them here so you can see them large and in color. No AI here--just Elastic Reality and painting. You can buy a signed print of this cover here:

Everyone brings their own personal perspective to a story like yesterday's murder, and for me I cannot stop thinking about Renee Nicole Good's 6-year-old son and the stuffed animals in her vehicle. It's hard to get out from underneath the weight of that, honestly.

I displaced a rib in college doing the advanced Tae Bo VHS.
What's the most ridiculous way you ever hurt yourself? I got out of the tub, skidded in water and tripped over the toilet. Ankle sprain.
