I have one red lipstick that I wear, and it’s the one Alison Roman wears. All others just don’t look right. We don’t even have the same coloring. It’s also like $35.

The parts are basically the width of the baseball stadium (it’s to the left in the pic). I think they had one more of those sections this morning.

They have been working all week on putting this one up!

A crane being used to put up another crane.

Crane inception. You need a crane to erect a crane.

Up for a hour around 2am. Unloaded the dishwasher, had a snack, packed an overnight bag, fed cats. Today is gonna hurt, cause I have a full workday.

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?
I’m in good hands.

East Liberty. Chislett Street. Caller said he is an Amazon driver and hit like an open sewer grate or something in the road so big that he fell out of his truck and injured himself.

Downtown. Liberty Ave. Caller is an Amazon delivery driver. He said that some guy just sliced up his tires and ran off.

College boyfriend came to dinner. I had prepped him that mom was a horrible cook but he saw this as a way to have more pie. Told him I’d be fine if he had to spit anything out. He ate a whole slice of pumpkin pie made with salt instead of sugar and plain pumpkin instead of pie mix.

There has always been this one XKCD that makes me cry. I guess there is two now.

Hope everything comes out ok.

The EPA has approved two new pesticides with "forever chemicals" that will be used on food.

The agency has also announced plans for four additional approvals.

The approved pesticides will be used on vegetables such as romaine lettuce, broccoli and potatoes.

This was my 1st grade lunch box. Although I remember it being yellow.

This is great; may also be related the unprecedented public hostility that right-wing politicians have been emboldened to muster against science. Anything "female coded"--including science and university education--is easily scapegoated.

I hate “supposebly” and “more better”, which I have heard in a professional setting more than I thought.

A view of a movie screen with text that says “row house f club join now”.

The new row house has a huge screen.

I finished wicked just in time to see the second move in an hour. Neighborhood theatre/film club tix/afternoon nap for the win!

FT - Shootout: Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC 0 (5), @fctulsa.bsky.social 0 (3)

The Hounds are your 2025 #USL-C title winner, as Eric Dick makes the key save in the second round of the shootout and Beto Ydrach scores the winner for the first league title in club history!

An old boss used to stop meetings to explain idioms to the non native speakers! Which I thought was kinda nice.

I did!

Looks like I might be the first person on the newly repaired incline. Pray for me.

I did 2 loads of laundry, mopped the kitchen floor, had dinner and did an hour of ascp CE since I’ve been home. I’m just going to read in bed. I can’t wait until it’s light out again.

Good. Also, I hope things get better for you.

The last time all my fish died I woke up in a hospital with carbon monoxide poisoning.

When I recently interviewed my now boss had a pin he wore saying he was an ally.

Chefs, cookbook editors, Julia Child biographers…

I feel this so much. Mom with immune issues/EDS used to tell her MDs that I wasn’t a real doctor just an ID PhD.

Shoe. Specifically from the movie Amadeus.

Polish mafia. Will break elbows. (Said with love, my name ends in ski and has not enough vowels).
