Hey! I wrote these things, and Aqueduct Press published them, and they're pretty snazzy! www.aqueductpress.com/authors/Holl...

This week's #TwentiesTuesday garment is this gorgeous Chanel little black dress. Designed in 1924, it is made from black crêpe chiffon and silk satin and embellished with a metal and crystal buckle. LACMA collection. #fashionhistory

Another reason to be glad our street will be closed to cars for the night.

The corridors draw nearer, but nobody else can see.

The left panel is far too neat and orderly.

I don't eat much chocolate these days. My chocolate of choice was Green & Black's, but Cadbury bought them. Even if I could still find it here, I imagine the quality may have suffered. Tony's Chocolonely is a close but no cigar for me. It's just as well I'm off chocolate.

In other news, It Has Begun. (And it's not even November yet....) We go through probably a dozen of these before New Year's Day. Because we are shameless.

When so much time has passed that she has forgotten almost everything else, the girl will think fondly of you, dear reader.

The exterminator is here, G. is back home with three enormous bags of Halloween candy, and we now have all the ramen/ramyun in the known universe.

I was just remembering when Puss was young. We closed up her pen every night. I would say "Night-night, Puss," and she would hop into her enclosure. When she got older and less inclined to go on the rampage, we just let her have the run of the house, except for the bedroom and G.'s office.

Important ramyun discussion.

The friar from Romeo and Juliet, and the friar from Much Ado About Nothing. He has one play and that play is "fake your own death"

for sale: baby shoes, never worn. im an adult man i dont know why i thought theyd fit

Yay! My ballot has been counted!

Today: divide and conquer. G. is going up to Costco for Halloween candy and other necessities. I am staying home waiting for the exterminator (since I'm lead on that project.) Not sure which one of us is going to have the most fun.

She just wants to be a star.

Criminal: UK. Just started. Last night: Kit Harrington did a minutes-long monologue, facing the camera, single continuous take. Also, I cannot lie, I have a crush on Lee Ingleby's character.

Nose of biggest baby.

❗ATTENTION❗ This is an official Leporidae-approved PSA🐰 Dear artists, game developers, toy makers, and others, We rabbits do not have toe beans; instead, we have coarse, compressed fur that protects our feet. See photo of the magnificent Sunny taken by Declan M Martin. #Rabbit #Bunny #Art #Games

Good morning. ☕️

Now and then, years later, the girl will think for a moment that she sees you, dear reader.

"Ever been to sea, Billy?" "No, Captain High Liner!" For some reason, my youngest sibling and I thought this was utterly hilarious.

I know I flog this movie a lot, but it's really good, and Kanopy's got it now. So if your library has got Kanopy, maybe check it out.

My new favorite account. Even though I don't get the in-jokes, it's still funny.

I don't understand why every time James Talarico texts me, it's from a different number. Is he . . . on the run? Are these burner phones? ARE YOU OKAY JAMES

AI is doing cold readings now? Or has that always been the case?

When I have *every single* weight and amount of yarn in my stash, except for the one I need for a specific project (see also: needles in the size I need.) Jimmy Beans is having a sale on Malabrigo Chunky, so I don't mind too much. Not my normal thing, but this colorway really appealed to me.

The house will grant the girl affection, if she stays true.

I already flogged Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, so here's my 2nd favorite, Khuda Gawah. From a thread on Indian film: "5minutesonline describes it as '...a love story on a scale so epic, it makes Gone With the Wind look like an episode of "Who's the Boss.'" Amitabh Bachchan and Sridevi dance-battle!

There are so many wonderful bunny artists on Bluesky. I wonder if I could commission one of them to design me a bunny tattoo.

Given all the email alerts I'm receiving this morning, Sound Transit is having a very bad day. There's a Seahawks game this afternoon, too, which probably makes it suck worse.

The bunny with the bunny ears!

The next Tesla car is just going to be a $100k body pillow shaped like Elon that Tesla fans can spoon to work.

Yay! King County Elections has received my ballot.

Thanks, Google Maps, for protecting the cow's privacy.

RFK decided to once again target maskers in a speech, laughing about going to LA and seeing people driving in their cars while masked. And I want to make sure people know that studies have shown that the reason someone might wear a mask in their car is that it's none of your fucking business.

Why is this book: a) not chewed? b) not flipped and tossed to one side?

Some carved turnips from a previous year... They do go more ghastly when they age a bit.
