Kita looks perfectly content. Kudos.
It's a trap.
GRRRRReen.
If you have no destination for unused (or mysteriously unmatched) keys, I'll happily pay shipping to have them. I lost my jinglecoat in the move to Colorado, and it's high time I rebuilt it. To be able to tell folks these are a Wookie's keys would be fun.
So 525 is GREEN green. Gotcha. 😆
This is =also= of serious concern.
Et voila! Case proven. #solar
I've three (hand-thrown), from the same potter. The one in back holds a bit more than the others. ☕
"See all, but don't SMELL all" is my interpretation...
Yup, that's me. It's nice to be needed.

Bodies are weird. Feet, especially.
Too many outlets are asking if an AI has feelings and not enough outlets are asking if an AI can be charged with murder.
All others are a go... usually in some sort of combination.
The function of the liver is to encapsulate toxins the system cannot excrete, and store them away (out of harm). Can't condone eating that. I don't like escargot, but know how to prepare it for those who do. Sardines have a place in but I'm opposed to whole little fish in my cuisine.
Sounds like a lovely combination... and thus, not "mediocre".
These weren't garnered from universities. These are all phrases which disenfranchised Americans have used for decades and decades.
"It's only pain. Unless it's whole-body, I cannot allow it to stop me."
Pick an echo chamber. Any echo chamber...
My body already has its share of eccentric bones. My unauthorized autobiography isn't finished yet. I'm a Prince of Daggers (and cheese) already, thank you, and I'd much rather dwell in the feral forest, but them bones need flat paths, and those exist more commonly in town (durnit!).
Satellite light, satellite bright, First satellite I see tonight...
With almost all smoked foods, the container should be the portion. My opinion. I can hear an angry goddess, though: "I am the mother of ALL THINGS, and all things shall have portions matching their container size."
A federal court ruled that ANTHROPIC illegally copied MILLIONS of books to train its AI. All authors and publishers whose books were downloaded by Anthropic from pirate websites are subject to receiving compensation. This could involve your work. For more info: authorsguild.org/news/anthrop...
True story.
"Water with lemon" is my go-to. Simple, easy, doesn't really NEED sweetener. "Agua fresca".
Oof! I hear you. All appropriate appendages crossed.
Get the sandwich, eat it at home after the appointment. 😁
My favorite hospital appliance would be the "blanket warmer". Oh, my.
Both are needed, in this instance. Pritzker can get things done while Newsom =distracts=. Might actually succeed.
Ferhawdsakes DON'T fuck JK Rowling. Don't go anywhere near that creep, and don't let your friends near her, either.
#MoonOfTheNow watching Venus and Jupiter doing their dance.
Not sure the same applies to Blanket Forts. Hmm.
"Zuckermuskian" for the win.
Mossy tomb, with elements of hellebore.
Merriam-Webster "Simplified English" Dictionary, eh?
Crumbling, grumbling harper. Nearly sessile.

Some people live in constant fear of everything they've never directly experienced. Those folks should never be legislators.
Unacceptable. This must never be "normalized".
Stating that Capitalism is better than Socialism because one man gets to be a trillionaire instead of everyone getting health care is not the compelling argument you think it is.
So the "cage match" is between Musk and Altman?
I'm old.
"De Figuris Veneris," also known as "Manual of Classical Erotology," a scholarly work by Friedrich Karl Forberg, published in 1824. I was 8. A few years later I took four years of Latin.
And some cheese.
Hugh, at Lafayette Disc and Media, can fix that, and put it on 8-track for you. There probably a more local transfer service near you. www.yelp.com/biz/lafayett...

GGAGCB, GGAGDC! GGG^ECBA, FFECDC!
I adore you (s.) both, 'specially when you (pl.) banter.
I lived in View Ridge, where the Avenues are gentle slopes and the Streets need funiculae.
All appropriate appendages crossed, man.
Wait, you mean all this time as a starving street musician, and I could have been in a fantasy novel instead of a dystopian nightmare? Why didn't anyone tell me?
Fun bunny tips available at @willquinnart.bsky.social ; Daily Bunny has lifted my spirits more than once.
Outdoor "housecats" are a constant danger to wildlife diversity. They aren't nearly as innocent as we prefer to believe.
Is Kita vaccinated?

And isn't it "float like a butterfly"?
The material (kevlar) and the angle, apparently. This has been seen with multiple cats on multiple harp cases!
A roommate's cats (many years and several cases ago) decided to scratch my harp case until it resembled a cat tree. When we got robbed us, they left the harp, probably thinking it was cat furniture. They took =everything= else. I took it as a sign that I was supposed to be a musician.
Now I want injerra, and the nearest Ethiopian restaurant is 90 minutes away. If I drove, which I don't. I really should find teff and nuf and find out how to make it myself.
Be one with The Great Mattress.
I dunno about colors, but old gnome bones is one of my diagnoses.
Sometimes the desire for privacy is not based on shame, but on the *very real* interest in simple privacy.
Well, this is bad... Habeus Corpus. It isn't just US law, it goes back to Magna Carta. You CANNOT just "delete it".

No coffee could be this bitter.
A lot of that has to do with who is placing the "value" on "the work". Many things of immense value have no monetary profile.
You have been FAPPED. No, not like THAT. Like this. youtu.be/rihQjkxyAAk?...
All the distractions still point in the same, inevitable directions; not at individuals, but at societal trends.
It's midnight here. Happy temporal anomaly to you, too!
You ain't ugly, you. Not by any stretch. And that is just the =outside=.
The quiche is not Wookiesafe, as it has ham, and I'm uncertain you like asparagus, as well. This is not my only recipe. I promise you, @wookietron9000.bsky.social , if I'm ever in the same space as you and a kitchen, I WILL quiche you.
Love to visit, couldn't live there. We need all of them: cities, hamlets, towns, villages. There is space for everyone to live as they please.

Mossy logs and IBMs. Itty. Bitty. Mushrooms.
If I have to sign papers for each doctor to have access to my data, shouldn't it be safe from the Federal Government, too?
Make sure it extends to their families, too. So that Auntie Ann giving trading advice based on insider knowledge is =also= illegal.
BREAKING: A Senate committee has just approved a bill to ban stock trading for members of Congress, the VP, and the President. The bill can now go before the Senate.
At least it's likely to count as "fun"...

They're big fans of yours.
Extraction of tallow can also be for maintaining or creating fire, a very important resource.
We have complete and total freedom.
I wish they had kept "don't be evil". Really.
'Cause waking up is hard to doooooo... (Waking up is hard to do) (Waking up is hard to do) 'Cause waking up is hard to do.
So when you meet us, understand why we're all a little socially backwards or nerdy: it is what saved us all, and what has repeatedly broken us all upon these rocky shores.
So here's another tidbit: most of the gay men you know in their late 50s and early 60s were unpopular people in their community. In 1990, desperately trying to fit in, I was invited to brunch with a group of seven other DC residents, all popular guys. A year later, I was the only one alive. 1/2
Beeg hugs, brother. You and me and a few others. Sometimes I'm so lonely.
Given the nature of a) my business and b) my humility/low self-esteem, when asked how much I charge for a wedding I say, "pay me what you think it's worth". This ALWAYS results in a higher payment than I was expecting. One of the (few) joys of being a folk musician.
They are amazing live.
24 tix now! ALMOST halfway to 50! LFG #BestFansOnThePlanet
No spoons, only knives.
Air quality (lack thereof). Ugh.
There is a proper facial hairstyle for every male face. Some are big and vibrant, some subtle and understated. The only thing I can say is that I've never found an adult make face which looked better =without= SOME sort of pogonic adornment.
It really IS carbonated prune juice, isn't it?
As a USian, I'm aghast. Indeed, elbows up.
