Update: There is a new cat who resembles Astroturf, but we haven't named her yet. Okay, so we don't know the sex for sure, but the vast majority of calicos are female. Anyway, it is currently unknown if this will destabilize this burgeoning community.
Presenting the honorable members of our lawn’s kitty committee: Astroturf, Mr. Bold (not a mister), The Spaniard, Breadbasket, and Wormie.
Every time I see someone use a highly stylized display font for body text, part of me shrivels up and dies.
On today's episode of "Beth eases back into reviewing," we've got this anthology of global translated trans poetry! There are translations from five(!) languages in here: Spanish, Danish, Norwegian, French, and Korean. Before I've even cracked the cover, this deserves a translated awards nod.

I drink decaf—shush, I had to cut my caffeine intake for migraine prevention—but the latest batch is kinda…bad. However, I remembered that my stepfather recommended adding the tiniest bit of lemon. I put a drop in my cup, and holy heck, it actually works! 🤯
Did you know the origin of the "zombie?" In a word, slavery. But it's deeper. "Black Zombie" is a GREAT documentary about this. Blackness, Haitian vodou, how the horror trope originated & its (mis)interpretations. I learned a lot. It's worth your time. 'Tis the season, after all.
Moving up in my KV studies because now I can sing a very simple nursery rhyme that I made up for my cat. Just you wait—soon I will have *two* silly nursery rhymes for my cat!

Brain’s going back and forth on the order of my current project. Do I keep the channeling stuff with my magical practice stuff, the cult stuff or Jeanne’Re’s biographical stuff? Where/when do I talk about her racist vision for the coven or her appropriation of Hoodoo and Spiritualist practices? Etc.

Challah-ween is a severely underused pun.
My toxic trait is playing solo on-field Mydei in Currency Wars and inventing semi-canonical reasons for the boss fights. Lygus? Well, that one’s obvious. Flame Reaver? Same. Argenti? BROTHER VS. BROTHER! Yanqing? I mean, you just *know* he’d challenge Mydei to a fight (and get his ass beat again).

Tilda Swinton is writing a memoir. But get this: it’s a little different from the normal celeb tell-all. ‘Material Evidence’ will eschew linear narrative, instead examining Swinton’s life through a series of objects.

Stelle Trash Can
Alt: Scene from Honkai Star Rail. Dozens of trash cans with legs are running through a rocky canyon as explosions erupt all around. Stelle lies atop a fallen trash can that lifts itself up, flexes, and joins the others running forward through the canyon. Stelle reaches after it, pleading, as more explosion erupt around them.
