Hahahah, if you and I were in the same city, I would happily drop off cookies tomorrow. Have a good dinner/scroll!

I just made some cookies if you want to doom-scroll with dessert.

You have an excellent point. I think I’ll cue National Treasure up for today’s dishes, thanks!
Oh, the women might as well not exist at all. They could just have hired illustrated body-pillow cases instead for that movie.

This whole movie was a wreck, but also stupid-fun, in my recollection. Exactly what TV execs ask for: something you can easily half-watch while washing up dishes.

Some friends like Kagi, where you pay $5 for 300 searches per month but they don’t charge you if you don’t use it. (You can try 100 searches for free to help you decide & they have other prices for family use and unlimited searches.) kagi.com/signup?plan_...

Honestly, you just saved me a bunch of time. I only want to see human Krakens, not land-locked Karens. Thanks!

It has become a commercial product museum. Just look, no touch.

More like to save storage space. I just sub a little molasses and a bunch of granulated sugar in any recipe that calls for brown sugar. I used to mix it up ahead of any need but the approximate ratio isn’t that tricky and I can’t be bothered now.

Oh! So glad to see him! He wasn’t visible the last few times I looked for him and I was a little worried.

I can’t guarantee that it’ll work this way for you, but ASL seems to exist in my brain as a different channel from other languages I’ve studied, so it is easier to access when language-things are blocked. Also, learning to make the facial expressions that are part of ASL has been very helpful.

Love any inter/intra office communication that ends with “hope this helps!”
One of the best cover-your-ass phrases around that might be rich with sarcasm or might be fully sincere.

Just made me think of the joy of the “Black lady courtroom” sketch.

I was pretty sure it was some kind of fence-post digger crossed with a jackhammer that had somehow been made at gyno-tool scale.

I am grateful for the wry, bitter laughter it produced in me. Any laugh is better than the alternative.

OMG, the “jazz hands” add here is the best of dark humor. Thank you for that. Ugh, what a world we live in.

I have a sheet cake recipe that calls for cooked cola in the frosting. It is surprisingly good. Kind of cocoa+caramel.

Doing it today with red lentils, Lebanese seven spice blend, rice, and random veg tossed in as a one-pot meal. Talked myself into it as a way to have leftovers for another few meals.

Absolutely. Hope business gets better for you ASAP.

“Here you can browse Brian's photographs, order fine art prints, book a bespoke photography adventure, contact us with any questions you may have or just to say Hello! Please visit often, as we are always adding to the galleries.”
The link embedded in “book a bespoke photography adventure” is bad.

To the best of my knowledge, yes!

To clarify: The green button link works, but the colored text link in the first block of text does not.

The link on this page to book a bespoke photo tour seems to go to a “this page cannot be found” message. briancreek.photography

That Forbes article, I think, is from 2024, and says they propose moving it to another year. However, the Real ID website FAQ says it is being enforced now.

The Owl House especially has magic & outsider vibes that would appeal to an HP fan.

If animated episodic stuff is okay, the Owl House & Gravity Falls were made by some delightful people. (Can’t say there aren’t complex issues with Disney getting a cut of the revenue, but the shows are good!)

The assumption in layoffs, too: “he’s got to support a family, so let’s let her go, instead.”

Maybe the blonde version of Billie Eilish?

Yeah, this is really going to come down to the clothing/hair/accessories that help clue people into who this is. (Like if Greta Thunberg, then do the two braids and carry a protest sign about climate change and dress in knits/outdoorswear. If a famous singer, a mike and a gold record in a frame, etc

If contemporary, picking an actor with a very recognizable costume from a role might be your best way to express who they are, unfortunately.
Blonde & light skin female celebs are kind of indistinguishable otherwise.

Not a figure from history, either, but contemporary?

Not a famous fictional character, but a real life person from this era?

The spotty highlights and the crayon-ish texture in the linework are lovely choices. Good work!

I had the impression that it has to be well sealed products, ideally a factory sealed bag of individually sealed items. I thought that was a safety issue thing when accepting gift from the public. Is it not so? Can you just hand a box of donuts to crew?

I keep wondering what that relationship is like when there are no cameras/guests.
Does she yell at him a lot? Does he get pouty? I know zero about sportsball, but I’m curious about these sportsball-adjacent humans, suddenly!

The real ones know you boil it first, then you microwave it. Just like bagels.
