PLEASE SHARE: As many of you know, I've been helping families in Orlando affected by ICE with food/bills. I met with 2 new families this week, one can't afford groceries and the other is late on rent. Trying to raise $1,000 along w/what I've put together locally. Can send via PayPal/Venmo: @KFoleyFL

It is how we cut them up for... toddlers.
true. a little anyways.
Just blowing winter coat. I could make another dog or maybe a cardigan with this hair!!
People who say dogs don't know what we say... they are not paying attention. They very much do.
Fern is losing so much hair daily it is insane. Gave a bath yesterday (she did not talk to me for a couple hours) and it only released more hair. I suggested another bath after brushing a lot more out this morning and I learned dog swear words.

MA folks—your tax dollars are going to the child-killing plagiarism company that stole from nearly all of you to flood the world in slop. This is a baffling and insane thing to do at this time. Please give Healey absolute hell for this.
The answer was a blast of air. Good to know!
Learning to frame art. Boy does it bring on a certain sailor dialect. How the fuck does one deal with this static and the acrylic glass? Like, it summons the hair of the dog down the street. Using a glass cleaner or other liquid seems like it would add moisture as I close this...

Time to call your senators
Boy will I ALWAYS wear sunglasses when there is snow/sun moving forward. Never had that problem before.
I had to run to VT yesterday and forgot to wear sunglasses on way home. It was amazing how much an hour of sun glare on snow absolutely messed me up yesterday. I have been able to manage my fatigue symptoms after q-fever pretty well, but the residual vestibular stuff... that came roaring back.

This is true.
Awesome
oooh we are posting super bowls?
As a specialist in Islamic ceramics *cracks knuckles* I present this fabulous 11th c. lustre painted bowl from Fatimid Cairo depicting a Coptic priest. Its white glaze imitates Chinese porcelain and the lustre technique was invented in Iraq a century earlier.
The actual best grocery store queso blanco is sold at Safeway/Albertsons in the produce section with the premade pico and guac.
No pic of Fern sadly. Sorry. She has learned that the drier vent lets out a lovely blast of warm air. *This* is the best place to be if you need to do walkies outside today. She stood there for a few moments before getting on to her task, but the look of surprise warmth and bliss was hilarious.
I think Henri needs to send some to me so that I can try it.
A breakfast Mustgo. I have become addicted to Finallie Ferments' Heavy Nettle Kraut with eggs this winter.
Carving that forearm is very fun
I agree.
I did not see that. I am sorry. Yes, this just adds to IRL stressors.
In the next update I would love a 'bomb the trolls' button where we are allowed to kill all of their troll accounts access in one action.
Same, hence taking a break here and finding a way to make boundaries around this shit. For example, really enjoy connections I've made, but these randos suck the soul out of everything. Put on laptop and limit connection... I'm still blocking people every day. Like doing dishes I suppose.
