I just finished 'The Book of Doors' by @garethjohnbrown.bsky.social. I have a lump in my throat. Beautiful ending. Wonderful book! #books #reading

Barack Obama's Twitter profile page showing he follows me.

Thanks for the heads-up!

This is the one and only reason I have not deleted my twitter account. When he first joined twitter I guess he followed whoever followed him!

Nice! I started this one yesterday.

Black wolf looking straight at the camera. Pine forest behind. Yellow eyes.

We were seeing a 98% drop in exposure over on Twitter. The censorship was so extreme we thought it best to start over somewhere else. We chose Bluesky.

A six-panel cartoon titled "real and implied birds". In the two panels in the top row, there's a rough legged-hawk sailing through the sky, next to a smooth legged hawk, which has smooth human legs. In the second row, there's a great-crested flycatcher looking dapper, next to an ok-crested flycatcher that has just a slightly less nice crest. In the third row, there's a mountain chickadee standing up on stones, next to a valley chickadee peeking out from a dip between stones. In the fourth row, there's a least bittern standing in some reeds, next to a most bittern that is enormous and stomping through a city, with people running in fear, helicopters overhead, and an overturned car on fire.

Another thing I made this year: Real and implied birds.

In my most recent past [career] life I was a document accessibility specialist. Today I cancelled my $230 a year subscription to Adobe Pro, the software I used for PDF accessibility. I'm sad, but I hadn't used it since I retired. Plus at that price, I think it's robbery. #accessibility #pdf #adobe

Ugh. I seem to have a bit of a reading hangover. I pushed myself to reach my goal of reading at least 40 books this year but now I can't become interested in any books I try to read. #reading

I can't figure out how to add alt text to the image. It shows a white cat sniffing a tabby cat through a window.

I've been waiting for inspiration to create my first post here because I hoped to write something profound. I can see that's not happening. So...
