anyone else just automatically shuffle the connections puzzle once or twice before you even start? I don’t trust them not to try to lead down some garden path with tricky placement 😂

that was quite a first guess huh? though now I’m convinced that’s how they write those puzzles: take four words that clearly go together and then come up with four other categories that can also use one of those words Connections Puzzle #645 🟩🟪🟨🟦 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟦🟦🟦🟦

painting the masking tape was a mistake, but I don’t hate it. however I did decide to make a slightly more streamlined model with a thinner roof. the graphics really make it fun 😁

I adore these midcentury modern tissue box holders so much, but I just couldn’t see myself spending $75 for it. I also wanted it to look more like my own Palmer & Krisel home, so I decided to hack up an old shoe box! I still need to add plants, paint the fascia, and seal it.

I went thriftshop shopping yesterday and found these fun shirts from my favorite tv shows, Stranger Things and Community. I love them because they just look like regular corporate/commercial t-shirts for an arcade or a school. Sneaky fandom.

this could not be further up my alley if I had to drag my trash cans out of the way to make room for it

99% Invisible@99pi.org

The 500th episode of 99pi is the first in 3-part series on vernacular architecture with stories from the staff about Dingbats, A-Frames, and Southern Porches featuring @vivianhle, @langealexandra, @action__johnson & of course: @romanmars #500 buff.ly/4gRqpKE

The SNL50 show got off to a pretty slow and boring start with Paul Simon but I did really enjoy the NYC musical number and the fake commercial retrospective, plus the tribute to Sinead O’Conner was very touching

Besides the deadly fires and whipping winds here in LA, the total lack of humidity is driving me nuts. I have enough static cling in my hair to power a small city.

I remember holding my friend’s hair back while she puked her guts out on that corner
