Vicious dog attacks leave South City shaken—and wondering what went wrong | St. Louis Magazine Two weeks ago, Chris Bethel witnessed something that left him shaken. He was on a late evening walk with his wife, Liz Chiarello, in their Tower Grove South

A few weeks back, I broke up a dog attack in my neighborhood. Check out the story here -

Double rainbow and a colorful sunset here in #StL

#StL showed up for the No King's Protest. Here are a few pics from the street.

Part of my annual opening day tradition is watching this old video from the YouTube account of @ninepbs.bsky.social about the Birds on the Bat!
Although, I might be biased because one interviewee was my grandma...

Today is Opening Day for the #StL #Cardinals 2025 season. Every year, baseball reminds me of the hope and possibility of the new year!

I have always liked this particular magnolia when it is in full bloom, with the light post and the flowers peaking up.

Hail, no? Hail, yes! We got marble sized hail in #TGS #StL

It's hard to top #TGP at Sunset on a randomly beautiful day in #STL.

Billionaires can't exist without exploitation. Whether it be people, the environment, public infrastructure - the massive accumulation of wealth doesn't happen unless it is at someone/something else's expense.

A tweet from Americans For Tax Fairness announces that the combined wealth of four wealthy Americans has reached $1 trillion. It names Musk, Bezos, Ellison, and Zuckerberg, noting their wealth was $74 billion twelve years ago.

This is unsustainable, especially now that billionaires are taking over our government.

I've been looking back at pictures of our Bernese Mountain dog, who just turned one year old. Sometimes, I'm shocked at how much she has grown in the last 11 months since we got her! She's still the same goodball though... For example, sometimes she "forgets" her tongue is hanging out! Lol!

Catching up on some random events... So, yeah... Sorry, not sorry

Fun times celebrating @lizchiarello.bsky.social last night at Oceano Bistro. She's been absolutely crushing recently - with a book and an ASR article... I'm so impressed with her every day!

Unfortunately, it seems that the good people at Herbies in Clayton have grown tired of inflatable Santa's magical ways! 🤣

Comparison of radical mastectomy with alternative treatments for primary breast cancer: A first report of results from a prospective randomized clinical trial In 1971, the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast Project (NSABP) implemented a prospective randomized clinical trial to compare the worth of alternative treatments with radical mastectomy in women with....

I'd probably need some sort of escape if I was developing a technique so extreme as the radical mastectomy. Maybe a part of him knew that it was excessive and not beneficial.

Autumn looking good in #tgp!

The #nerd image saga continues.
For background, since the release of DALL-E, I've occasionally challenged chatGPT to generate an image of a nerd without glasses. It utterly fails at this task and then proceeds to gaslight the user. At least now, it acknowledges the mistake!

One of my favorite tests for ChatGPT is if it can make a nerd without glasses. Even the new model can't handle it...
It also insists that there are no glasses, even though they are clearly visible.
The previous model tried to tell me that it was just a shadow...
