I know this one because I hang around with Canadians who design games named after a tuque.

A Chicago Pope implies the existence of a New York-style Pope and a Wood-fired Pope. 🍕

American Bookshop... I bought these card decks (also good for Vidrasso, with the four colors). If you borrow a second zero, American Bookshop. With dots and some cubes, Aber Hallo. (Only change suit with the first card. Trust me.)

I'm sorry for your loss.

I'm thinking of Laura Ingalls Wilder and her family grinding a little bit of wheat in their coffee grinder, trying to make something approaching muffins when they were snowed in. Also twisting hay into something resembling logs.

That's about what I spent on my wedding dress, on sale at Macy's.

Wil Wheaton filmed a movie at my college (before I attended) and I'll admit to watching it (at least 75%) to see my college on film.
Had it been Patrick Stewart, 60% Sir Patrick, 40% college.

I've seen parts of The Matrix over the years, but I don't know that I've ever started at the beginning and seen the whole thing in one sitting. I like the slow-motion air fighting, and the water pods creep me out.

I went to Wells, which is actually 5 letters. Ooh, Smith would be another one. But both colleges, and not universities.

The venn diagram between them and the people cheering the federal workforce cuts, and those wanting to get rid of libraries and PBS, is probably pretty close to a circle.

I just bought a vegan cookbook, and black bean burger mix. We skip the eggs and meat section at the store. Made cauliflower "buffalo wings" in the air fryer.
When t went after meat inspection standards the first time, didn't eat pork or bacon for about three years. Now found Louisville vegan jerky.

I was going to make a joke about fitting a coal plant on my roof, but I'm afraid to say it out loud because I never thought "Idiocracy" would come true, either.

Those are nice-looking cards.

That's amazing, thank you! There's no message bubble for you, so perhaps you have the default setting, only people you follow? bsky.social/about/blog/0...
I found your email on your University page. Hopefully that worked. Thank you again! 📙

I am reading Patrick Stewart's new book, Making It So, and just today got to a part where he talks about knowing Michael Dorn for 35 years. They were at an event together, and he was moved to tell him he loved him, and Michael said it back.
Also, I named the cat I had in high school 'Patrick'. 🐈⬛

Someone that I graduated college with just got doge'd after 21 years with the CDC. 😞

“Vanity” by Frédéric Soulacroix
Would you believe for having a thread of 100 selfies I’m actually incredibly self conscious when taking selfies? Blame it on lingering insecurities from the awkward teenage years. I don’t know if I necessarily think I take good photos as just strive for not bad ones

During COVID we had an outdoor tea party, to be able to see each other.

Retire is a quaint thing the boomers used to do, like go to sock hops.

I find Affinity fun, makes me feel creative. Corel I wanted to have as an option, and it's good for some of the boring things I do, like cropping a series of screenshots.

I have the files (I bought it back in the CD days). Yes, at the verification step, or however it works. At first they broke it, then they made it so we could install again, and last I knew, it was blocked forever.

I feel like Affinity "gets me". Intuitive and fun to use.

I was using CS3 until they blocked being able to put it on my new laptop, to force us into subscriptions. I went to Affinity and Corel.

Look at Affinity (very intuitive for me, fun to use) and I also got Corel, to have options. Both as one-time buys, not subscriptions.
comment in response to
post
When Adobe made it so I couldn't install CS3 anymore, even though it worked just fine, I switched to Affinity and Corel (one-time payments, not subscription).

Maybe elon has been having random people 3-D print rocket pieces for him. That would explain a lot.

“The Love Letter” by Emile Levy from 1872
I did this pic when they were getting ready to announce when kids could begin receiving the COVID vaccine. I can’t imagine the stress parents must have been going through during the pandemic, trying to juggle schooling kids from home with everything else!

Side note: Don’t forget to add alt text to your pics! I’ve done it for every picture in this thread. It’s important for blind/low-vision users, helps give context, and lets people mute stuff they don’t want to see with their muted words lists!
