I love seeing roughs. It reminds me that just like my stuff, nothing emerges fully formed.

Yeah, but the shipping fees for those are bonkers. Dehydrated Boulders are the more economical choice.

I feel like “the world passed peak gas-powered car sales in 2017” is not a widely known fact

I have half a million words of stuff nobody will ever read because it's only fit for wrapping old fish. That's what you do to learn how to write. If you don't put in the grunt work, you'll never do anything worth doing.

This article only sort of mentions the far worse problem than being bad for astronomy.

These satellites re-entering are already damaging our ozone layer.

And how the fuck does one asshole in one country get to decide any of this that affects the entire planet.

musk can fuck off into the sun.

Cmon, you were HOSTING A SHOW and trying to herd those (albeit delightful) feral cats! There was no time to go back to first principles and explain it to them! 🤪

In the midst of a blizzard, a distant Miniature Australian Shepherd stands as a blur with a red frisbee in the middle of snow-covered Riverdale Park West, with stadium lights behind barely shining through the storm.

Meanwhile a few kilometres east, this goober had a mid-storm park of his own… #snowTO #toronto

Astonishing to watch Mark Carney’s speech and Trump’s ramblings one after the other.

Sorry, the needle-dropping conifer heads out the door on New Year’s Day when we make the food for our humble Oshōgatsu feast. 😄

Traditional is best. Though years ago, when I had the time and energy, I heard tell of a shortbread/gingerbread battle.

A reindeer sits in a comfy chair, legs up on an ottoman, reading a book with a roaring fireplace nearby and bookshelves surrounding it while beyond, instead of walls, is a snowy forest.

For this last evening of 2025's #ArtAdventCalendar , here's a piece of mine from 2022 of a calm winter's night where everyone can just start to…relax….Happy Holidays all!

Oh, Ma Raccoon and the other kit were in the refrigerator too—I'm sure it was Ma who opened it. But upon hearing my mom coming they beat a hasty retreat—she saw them run for the screen door—but the other two must have gone too deep, felt cut off and made a survival decision to hunker down in place.

#ArtAdventCalendar My parents' holiday card from yrs ago—drawn by me—inspired by events at their cottage that year. One night a family of raccoons got in thru a screen door & raided the fridge. When my mom went to check out the noise, Ma Raccoon+1 kit ran for it, while 2 kits tried to hide in place!
