When I got to El Pollo Rico, it’s not the chicken that I crave, it’s the crispy, almost burnt, spice-crusted skin. Just give me an order of just the skin, and I’d be happy!

Spending a handful of days in Reykjavík permanently altered my expectations in life because what the fuck do you mean I can't walk a few blocks and soak in a large outdoor hot tub in the drizzling rain?? cc: @samer.is

OMG! La Brasserie Dieu du Ciel! possède la certification Cask Marque, standard international de qualité pour le service de bière en cask. @samer.is We were so surprised to see that DDC got the Cask Marque certification. Didn't know pubs outside UK had the certification. The bitter was heavenly!
I love listening to the rain. Windows open, sitting on the couch, reading the internets. Pretty good Sunday.
Had such a good day yesterday. I love that DC is a small town and you can count on running into people you know at almost every event. And yeah, we talked about jobs and politics, but we also talked about art and music and food and all sorts of creative projects.
Not visible to the naked eye but there's a tiny bit of red #aurora here on the south coast of the UK, a little boost when you're flagging on #WorldMentalHealthDay. Strangely enough it's the anniversary of a very vivid red showing down here 2yrs ago 😯 #mentalhealthmatters
Hello, if you have a child 4 and 12, I might like to answer their science questions...please send them to hankandjohn@gmail.com I will make a video featuring some of these questions with "first name - Age" being the only identifying feature!
Don’t think we’ll be so lucky tonight so here are some throwback pics from two years ago
Vincent Ledvina@vincentledvina.bsky.social · yesterdayIt’s actually a crazy coincidence that this CME is hitting on 2026-10-10 and has almost the same field strength as the CME that hit on 2024-10-10. What are the chances?! There’s something about October 10 apparently… interesting 🤔

if you're tired of my frequent posts about the bs of the ubiquity of national guard troops in the us capitol (and elsewhere)- know this, we, the citizens of DC/elsewhere are more tired of it than you are. if you can't/won't wake up to the reality that this is coming to you, enjoy your sleepwalking
i have lost so much respect for people I chatted with -- especially journalists, _especially_ journalists I know personally -- who haven't even bothered to move here or do the bare minimum of posting your career is not going to crash and burn because you stop posting on the fascist site I promise
Ian@ianlivingston.bsky.social · 3d agoI still go to Xitter for work stuff at times. It always amazes (disgusts?) me how so many people I used to chat with all the time are just posting through the site being owned by one of the globe's leading fascist propagandists.

Einn af hverjum 62 nóbelsverðlaunahöfum í bókmenntum hafa verið íslenskir ríkisborgarar 🤗 (Lofið mér bara að njóta mín í smá stund hérna, svo skal ég reyna að vera eðlilegur😅)
For the first time in many years, after a needed break, I find myself without any active freelance clients. So if you have a project that needs graphic design and/or illustration support, let’s chat! (Cute dog for engagement bait)
Are you in the mid-latitudes in the US, wondering what to look for? Potential arrival time: 8-11 pm CDT tonight. You're looking for pillars of red/pink on the north horizon. Why? Well, the highest lights in a pillar of aurora are reds and given the curvature of the earth, that's what you can see.
A G2 geomagnetic storm warming has been issued for this evening, with models putting #northernlights arrival time ideal for North America. 1:00-4:00 GMT with ± 7 hrs for impact arrival tomorrow morning (tonight for places west of here in Iceland). Time zones are hard. But #aurora hunting is fun!
I wish I had a witty or insightful way to convey it, but it just sucks seeing the National Guard in my city. They’ve been branching out into residential areas for a few months, especially those with larger minority populations. The Hill and the Wilson Building are silent on the matter.
DC needs more fun, original bars. Enter Astro Zombie, a tiki bar with pu pu platters and "spaceship diner" vibes in the former home of Little Serow... washingtonian.com/2026/10/08/a...
