Found the perfect use of a 1 inch cube of copper.

Sun kitty.

This class description... is a little embarrassing.

I misread "wheel" as "weasel" and I'm 99% certain this would be vastly better ad copy.

GO HOME WORDLE YOU'RE DRUNK. Maybe I'd have gotten it on the epiphany.

I just completed "Reactor" - Day 11 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2025/day/11 Took 4 hours, the longest yet this year. And I have work in the morning.

Una mattina, mi son' svegliato O bella miao bella miao bella miao miao miao Una mattina mi son' svegliato e ho sentito un gatto HORK. On the bed. This little beast:

This is EXACTLY the kind of legal drama I live for.

Catalogued entirely in a one book!!!

Got my nails done at VdGSA conclave and they're fab!

WTF Android?

A music lesson, circa 1611.

Found a feral cat at the Summer Toot, brought him home (I've been home less than 2 hours). He's perfect.

My car's built-in rain gauge show we got over an inch of rain! Great feature on Acuras but inconvenient: you have to leave the moonroof open for it to work.

Two types of frightening girls, from 1892.

Spring polishing time. Figured I'd start small and work myself up to the tea service I never use.

There's no comparison, though, personality-wise. Hoover is a Greek-tragedy level historical figure, full of every virtue except one.

Herbert Hoover: definitely the guy you want to be compared to, stock market performance-wise

Please, Trump, beat Hoover, who was a fatally flawed president but a genuinely good guy, scrupulously honest, who nearly worked himself to death trying to fix things.

Trump’s second term has been the worst start for any President since at least Hoover in stock market performance terms.

What in the magical fairytale is going on here?

Mr. Squeak, purebred trash goblin. 2005-2025.

This is the ideal male body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

Look at this magnificent lad.

Generating this likely exceeded the annual carbon emissions of a couple Baltic republics, but, no, I am not immune to stupid Internet trends.

6 days of work, 850 breves of music. A 1549 mass on Verdelot's "Italia Mia". I was going to start a series of masses based on madrigals, but that was a slog of work. Maybe I'll just do some imitative magnificats. dfwviols.com/typeset/gasp...

My big-brain legally European medieval Monk class in CRPGs.

Grumpy guy at my hotel is also a duck with antlers from behind!

Started: Nov 2012. Finished: tonight. All surviving printed madrigals of Luca Marenzio transcribed from original notation in modern parts and scores, except for an imperfect 1577 madrigal, and a 1593 in an anthology I have no scan of. Last I did: a 10-voice polychoral: dfwviols.com/typeset/di_d...

Quel lauro, che fu in me già a10 by Luca Marenzio (c.1553-1599)

The "skibidi" of the late 17th century: "galant".

Remembering a classic @kenwhite.bsky.social twitter thread that needs an addition, "If you're trying to purchase a ray gun to kill minorities en masse, and some friends from the KKK offer to help you out, they're Feds."
