main attraction tonight was laura cantrell, and a bunch of guests for states of country: georgia edition! but unexpected bonus was having zero-wait dinner at superiority burger. not only brooks headley in the house, we saw him taking pictures with a group. turns out it was eYe from the boredoms!!!

picture of my jaw, showing i now have a screw in place of the back upper left molar. same thing on the back lower right. the imaging technology is very interesting, whole head 3D scan takes <1 min, and then you can spin the image around etc. was thinking it'd be cool to have one of these scanners! 🦷

i can't believe it's december (mostly in a frantic, harried, nervous way). but silver lining is its time for a gem of a #bowie poem by Aaron #Cometbus, who traditionally does December. if you see these calendars in your bookstore/cafe/arty outlet in jan, snag one! tx @besecretandexult.bsky.social

satisfying moments: several mornings of leftover txgiving pies, hot coffee, and thumbing through catalogs of holiday treats.

If you're not, listen to this.
Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.
Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.
It's literally never been more important.

a kind of wild extension of the existence of the insect eye "pseudopupil" is the "deep pseudopupil". this allows you to glimpse the cellular organization of photoreceptors, with only low-power magnification. can do large genetic screens just your bare eyes! 🪰👁️

funny thing is i usually think of bollards as being posts, not balls. then i checked wikipedia and it says "The term [bollard] is probably related to bole, meaning a tree trunk."

unexpected collision of my two worlds this week: (1) thrilled to be enveloped by the mesmerizing vibes of the American Analog Set, 1st show in 20 years! (2) learned that Andrew Kenny, gtr/vox of AmAnSet and Wooden Birds, studied biochemistry and worked for years in fly RNA regulation! what?! 🎸+🪰+🧬=❤️
